@zvava That's a double-sided sword, I'd day. This also helps the bad guy kick out the rightful owner. Anyway. Happy hacking!
@dce Apart from the crap produced in Redmond two decades ago, I only ever used and still happily use Linux, mainly Debian and Ubuntu. I've no idea, but maybe something in there catches your eye: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_operating_systems (I know, what a silly recommendation.)

@lyse On this ThinkPad, I want to keep it running modern software until it physically breaks, with an emphasis on security and FOSS
@bender Cool, the PDF doesn't have the navigation links between each section, that's indeed a tad nicer. Thanks!

@kat Oh dear, nobody needs bot attacks. :-( Luckily, the web server responding a hell lot quicker today than the last two days.
@kat thank you!!!! just wait until you see what i have cooking :3
@lyse hihi ^^ i did that at first, but i personally i don't like it when websites don't let me change my password when i am already authenticated — fwiw you can view and log out other sessions, if that diminishes this attack vector at all

Well, what are you trying to do on this ThinkPad? That might affect the OS choices.

I really had to laugh when I read your initial comparison. I love it! :-D

I have a late-2010s ThinkPad running OpenBSD, but it's about as fast as a snail carrying heavy shopping through molasses. I'd like to run something other than Linux, for variety, but the other members of the BSD family failed for various reasons. What OS do you guys think I should try?

Hmm, gnu.org is slow as heck. Shorter HTML pages load in about ten seconds. This complete AWK manual all in one large HTML page took a full minute: https://www.gnu.org/software/gawk/manual/gawk.html Is there maybe some anti AI shenanigans going on?

In any case, I find the user guide super interesting. My AWK skills are basically non-existent, so I finally decided to change that. This document is incredibly well written and makes it really fun to keep reading and learning. I'm very impressed. So far, I made it to section 1.6, happy to continue.
It was raining cats and dogs for a few minutes, I almost couldn't see the houses down in the valley anymore. Pretty sick. :-)

@bender Haha, yeah, we're also better off rolling dice sometimes. I usually don't mind liquid sunshine either. But I have to be prepared for it. As a matter of prudence, I brought my rain jacket along. In the end, I was wet from the inside as well, though. The breathability of this plastic bag isn't as good as they always claim it to be. Especially in summer.

@movq I couldn't agree more! :-)

@lyse Weather’s great at the moment, isn’t it? I like it when it’s cloudy, dark, chilly. 😊
Ariadne explains some of the reasons behind this “Wayback” thingy (rootful X11 on Wayland):

- https://social.treehouse.systems/@ariadne/115147331909980717

They should put this in a FAQ on their website or something. The whole endeavor makes more sense when you look at it like this.
@bender ..if you read the post you would see those are the next planned steps, yes
Three weather services with three different forecasts. We got a little bit rained on, so at least some of them were not completely wrong. The timing was off by an hour, though. And nobody expected the Spanish inqui^W^Wthunder either. It was a nice walk.

Oh cool, as I type this, lighning and thunder very close by now. At most a kilometer away. Glad I'm home and not in the woods anymore. And heavy rain kicks in, too.
@zvava Uuhh, that's nice! And welcome to the twtxt world.

The password change might query the current password as well in order to make it difficult for attackers to change account passwords.
replies and following implemented! next step is further parsing of post contents, rendering threads, and then maybe i can finally start adding remote feeds...! though i kinda wanna redo the whole ui ^^'

You can also buy stickers and other items... soon my "Python Reading Club" and "Python is also for artists!" designs will be available. This will help support my free and open source activities. I make free and open educational resources, I teach at several places and I need to make ends meet.

Mas qual destas características faz realmente s diferença?

É o facto de ser um projecto público?
É por ser um projecto de investigação?
É por ser de código aberto?
É uma conjugação de dois ou mais desses factores?
Quais?
Porquê?
Já estabelecemos atrás que *iniciar* os trabalhos não é proibído (só má prática). Em que é que estes outros factos fazem a diferença?
E, já agora, quais são as implicações dessa diferença?
A Amália assim treinada pode ser usada por projectos que não sejam públicos?
E se forem projectos que não sejam de investigação?
Quais são as licenças de código aberto qie a Amália vai ter, e que obrigações de licenciamento terão os seus clientes ou derivados?

As perguntas não foram feitas, e, está claro, também ficaram sem ser reapondidas. Também não há resposta para as tentativas de contacto de vários dos detentores de direitos de autor de conteúdos utilizados para o treino - lá está, talvez porque a análise que poderá dar essas respostas ainda não sstá - no mês de lançamento! - concluída.

Ainda assim, temos garantias: a “versão base” do Amália será disponibilizada publicamente já no final de setembro. “A partir desse momento qualquer entidade poderá utilizar o modelo”. Como é que conseguem dar essa garantia sem ter a análise legal feita é que fica por compreender.

Segunda notícia que leio do mesmo jormal, mesmo dia, sobre a #AmálIA.

https://eco.sapo.pt/2025/09/02/equipa-de-peritos-esta-a-analisar-possiveis-impactos-legais-do-amalia-incluindo-nos-direitos-de-autor/

Este pôs-me ligo a resmungar com o título - e não melhorou.

O título é: “Equipa de peritos” está a analisar “possíveis impactos legais” do Amália, incluindo nos direitos de autor

Pôs-me a resmungar porque o projecto até já era para ter sido lançado, agora tem data de lançamentk para setembro (sim, este mês) e afinal... ainda nem fizeram aquele que devia ser o primeiro passo? Então e se agora afinal os dados não podem ser usados? Ou uma parte deles - vão tirá-los da base de dados iniciais e retreinar os modelos?

A questão é tão óbvia que até os jornalistas se lembraram de a fazer. E aí é que comecei mesmo a resmungar. O responsável pelo projecto podia ter dito "a legislação não impossibilita o início dos trabalhos." Porque claro que não impossibilita. Mas o problema é que iniciar os trabalhos com todos os dados sem saber quais é que vão ser excluídos pode até ser contraproducente. E se afinal nenhum pode? Lá se foram os 5.5M€ que a brincadeira custou?

Mas a resposta foi pior, foi "Sendo um projeto público, desenvolvido em ambiente de investigação e seguindo um modelo de código aberto, a legislação não impossibilita o início dos trabalhos."

½ Captura de ecrã vinda do artigo, que cita João Magalhães, Coordenador do desenvolvimento do projecto Amália, a dizer "Sendo um projecto público, desenvolvido em ambiente de investigação e seguindo um modelo de código aberto, a legislação não impossibilita o início dos trabalhos."
