"The tao that can be tar(1)ed is not the entire Tao. The path that can be specified is not the Full Path.
We declare the names of all variables and functions. Yet the Tao has no type specifier.
Dynamically binding, you realize the magic. Statically binding, you see only the hierarchy.

Yet magic and hierarchy arise from the same source, and this source has a null pointer.

Reference the NULL within NULL, it is the gateway to all wizardry."

Canada, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Sudan and Cuba...the fact that we're in this list and I was blocked from doing stuff today because of it is...what have we become? Where did we go so wrong?

I always felt like snappy/flatpak/appimage were stupid ideas, but didn't exactly know why.

Then someone wrote this article

and suddenly it all makes sense.

TIL a typical Android phone does not work over 56k dial-up.

It just flat out doesn't. Background tasks alone will saturate the whole link and just trying to ping something times out.

2-3 applications with push notifications or more and it's actually flat out impossible to access the internet over 56k using an Android phone thanks to it saturating its own link.

That's pretty fucking sad not gonna lie.
borrowing this from Julia Reda:

This time next week, on 5 July at noon, the EP Plenary will vote decisively on EU copyright. 550.000+ EU citizens agree on a Change.org petition that the current proposal is unacceptable. Our position is no small minority, join them & sign: #saveyourinternet
