Is it just me, or do others in the US who own a top-level .com domain get a lot of SBA Loan spam?

If one is mansplaining to a Moms-for-Liberty type (non-US folks, look 'em up, they're awful), is it still bad?

I didn't delete my tweets, alas, but I did just shut down "danmcd" at Twitter. If it resurfaces, IT IS NOT ME!

Not only is today my anniversary (Love you W), but it is also the release date (in 1983) of Yes's 90125 album.

Sharp-eye readers of ipseckey(8) in #illumos (and I think Solaris too?) will recognize that, along with two other numerical album titles.

Please boost this one if you can.

Anyone here a, or know a, GNU binutils wizard? ( #binutils #gnu )

I have software that depends on binutils honoring the the -z/--disassemble-zeroes option. My testing indicates that starting in binutils 2.41 (extending to 2.42) that option is ignored.

I have a downloadable test tarball that'll exercise the code, broken or not, available upon request.

This MIGHT be #illumos , but I tested binutils 2.38 on ubuntu-22 and it passed, so I'm doubting that!

Snow Leopard was my favorite MacOS release. 0 new features! I didn't update until TurboTax forced me to. Happy 15th birthday Snow Leopard!

Folks who work with #bhyve , looks like folks have brought fuzzing techniques to the hypervisor space:
