The Simpsons is like a pop culture version of the infinite monkeys theorem. Write enough episodes and include enough random silly crap, and eventually some of it will come true, maybe

Three blog posts in one week! Today, I was wondering how our Unix programs magically know what argc and argv are, so I recreated echo(1) and passed argc and argv into main manually.

Code for the blog post is here: https://github.com/ibara/echo
I connected to Mullvad VPN's servers in a fraction of a second, I stay connected to my VPN all day with a ridiculous battery drain, and when I choose to connect to a country and not to a specific server the application automagically moves to the country's fastest server.

Hi friends (esp. MA friends), if you can, please join me in assisting the Transgender Emergency Fund, which helps provide critical assistance to low-income and homeless trans folx here in Massachusetts: https://transgenderemergencyfund.org/
From my humble perspective, when it comes to life advises, an advantage of instant messaging over social media is that your advice explicitly answers to the practical issue being discussed, instead of letting your reader figure out how it applies to themselves

They didn’t cancel Pride this year, they cancelled Pride™️ this year. Pride is right now and it’s the most authentic it’s been in decades
Speaking as an activist with a ProtonMail address, I was using it because I was easy to manipulate and because I was looking for a social status.
This may be why I've become an activist in the first place. I've always been doing my best – if anything to deserve this status –, but it looks like doing my best wasn't enough.
And seriously, Proton employees on the field? This is indecent, and deceptive advertising.

… Why did we spend several days talking about the name billionaires gave to their child again?
Art is more enjoyable if the food's good. Which may be why it's a social code. I love art btw
Yeah I registered an account on a public XMPP server with a cool domain name, and one day I didn't get replies from an XMPP client developer because my XMPP server wasn't updated (backward-incompatible federation problem)
That's the most innocuous example of why you should pay for your XMPP server (again, https://infosec-handbook.eu/blog/xmpp-aitm/)
Also, Nomagic UK provide all of these services for 8€/month, including an XMPP (Openfire) server, a Matrix server (Synapse), a Pleroma instance, Wallabag, Seafile, temporary images/file hosting,… https://nomagic.uk/services/
I casually talk with the admin and he's literally putting as much services as possible on his server until new subscriptions let him pay for a new one, that's not a commercial service that's activism
You should really read this blog article before creating an account on a "public" (random) XMPP server https://infosec-handbook.eu/blog/xmpp-aitm/
