Working on something more formal: https://github.com/timb-machine/debian-ai-llm-tagging If you're a #debian developer and you're interested, it aint gonna happen unless DDs get on board... (although I am planning submitting PR for packages I've had a hand in...) Update: I will move it to salsa as soon as my account is activated. When I last interacted with Debian in this manner, salsa was not a thing :).

It's interesting to note that there are (tiny) bits of Debian for which I am *still*, for all intents and purposes, an upstream and/or debian/* copyright holder.

A one line patch fixes the underlying issue but the layers of packaging and obscurity in the installer pissed me off no end, so fuck Ubuntu for this box.

Spent some time today, discussing reverse engineering, encouraging my mentee to dig into the next level of Ghidra and explaining how IDA search worked and why not everything was a string... Also how FUN_ and LAB_ are derived.

Might go bug hunting KDE later for the full 2010'ish experience. The big questions: 1) Are IOSlaves still a problem? 2) Is DBUS any better than DCOP?

@badge@social.emfcamp.org If I buy all the spare parts from the online store and the new 2026 bits (both already done), do I need the 2024 green front board or will it work without? If I do, do you have any spares on site? Asking as I gave my 2024 badge to someone who missed out and I'm trying to bootstrap a replacement from the spare parts...
