The #gameoftrees FAQ summarizes our responses to several questions the internet was asking when the project first became known to the general public: https://gameoftrees.org/faq.html

I friggin' love this educational video.

It's a #Soviet-era #Russian film explaining #SpecialRelativity. I listen to it over and over to practice my Russian. Repetition and a familiar subject help a lot.

Also, it's out of copyright. Soviet films belong to the people, comrade.

#Ghidra might be one of the coolest things I've played with lately, kind of bizarre seeing it running on #OpenBSD. The decompiler tool is.. something else. Also, notice RETGUARD prologue/epilogue?

On -current:
$ pkg_add ghidra
$ ghidraRun

Running NSA reverse engineering tool on the Huawei matebook, of course. 😏

Looking for undeadly.org staff contact :)

I digged up 13 #OpenBSD developer interviews in manageable format that we did for the 20th project anniversary.

It would be great if undeadly.org was willing to re-publish them (currently there is only https://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article&sid=20151030205937 pointing at dead links)

Not a fan of these, but this one certainly has it's charm:

I finally got my Minecraft account back after months, and all I am thinking is

DRM is bullshit and we should all just be investing in Minetest instead 😕

If you have Facebook "like" buttons embedded on your website, it could make you liable for breaking GDPR privacy laws, even if it's Facebook doing the illegal stuff:

You can protect your site from legal liability (and protect your users' privacy) by removing all Facebook like buttons.

Please tell your employers/organisations about this ruling, it may help convince them that Facebook is toxic (or at least that embedded like buttons are toxic).

Hello @PINE64 :D

as https://www.pine64.org/ is loading many Google/Tracking-Scripts, may i introduce you to https://matomo.org/

That is an open source, selfhosted alternative to Google Analytics/doubleclick.net.

Google has already a big monopoly [in the advertisement market](https://spreadprivacy.com/content/images/2017/07/princeton-web-tracking-study.png) (Source: https://webtap.princeton.edu ), and in general on the internet.

@j According to "The Meaning of Liff" that's called "Woking", from the verb "To woke". Usually of the kitchen, but now more generally applied.

Woking (ptcpl. vb.): Standing in the kitchen wondering what you came in here for.

From http://liff.hivemind.net/
