Is there a standardized way to get the KVM (user interface) with just #ipmitool & co. Without any web, JVM, and/or proprietary apps?

Though I can run these in IceCat, via icedtea(-web), and a chroot/container/VM respectively, I expect the standards-based utilities, like `ipmitool`, to be enough for everything, not just a tiny subset of management tasks. Those vendor-specific apps really stink.

That's fun. The garbage OS running in the tiny ARM in this MacBook Pro keeps crashing and bringing the entire system down. So I reset the SMC to get its stupid second OS into a hopefully better state.

Now MacOS Vista is asking me for permission to access files constantly. I guess it's the garbage coprocessor that keeps track of that.

I wish I just had a PC running Linux.

When someone leaves a bunch of garbage, including their username, in the RPATH of a production executable, it's reasonable time just email them directly, right?

We need more than deplatforming .. of weird politicians and other bad actors. Agreed.

Emacs has started ignoring my dead keys again. Can someone convince jwz to fork it, it's just been getting worse with time.

Maybe it is time to make providers responsible for the content they carry. Give some leeway time to mark content as inappropriate and moderate it (if necessary) but, if it isn't taken down, the provider gets fined.

"I agree", an interesting project from 2018 by Dima Yarovinsky were he printed “terms of service” of the leading online services that we use on a daily basis on A4 to show how small and helpless we are against those.
