#SourceHut, @codeberg, and #GitLab.com are all viable alternatives depending on your priorities.

This bit of legalese is also pretty fun.

New episode of @fossandcrafts on "Gender and Sexuality, A Personal Perspective" https://fossandcrafts.org/episodes/30-gender-sexuality-personal-perspective.html

I talk about being nonbinary trans-femme and @mlemweb talks about being demisexual.

Sharing experiences is good... though a motivator for this episode (for me) is also that much of my work is public (ActivityPub, etc) and easily found. A "stealth" transition isn't an option for me without disconnecting from my past work.

So here it is, out in the open.

If you use libvirt (e.g. virsh, virt-manager etc) and you routinely need "throw away" VMs, I have tidied up my tool for managing these and released it: https://git.sr.ht/~fincham/scratch

Yesterday @Athelstan brought to my attention that yet again #Microsoft is lying through their teeth. In the link below, at 00:11:22 they claim that tailing with 3 window of applications is something that “no one else let you do with these many windows”!!

And on 00:12:32 they claim that they are the first who come up with “task switching” in which applications are collected together for a task. Remember, #KDE has had it as “Activities” for yeaaaaars
