WSL 2 GPU Support for Docker Desktop on NVIDIA GPUs
It’s been a year since Ben wrote about Nvidia support on Docker Desktop. At that time, it was necessary to take part in the Windows Insider program, use Beta CUDA drivers, and use a Docker Desktop tech preview build. Today, everything has changed: On the OS side, Windows 11 users can now enable their GPU […]

First experience with my new unlimited mobile phone contract while traveling: The phone hotspot works much better than the ICE (German high speed train) WiFi usually does.

Lossless Image Compression in O(n) Time
Introducing QOI — the Quite OK Image Format. It losslessly compresses RGB and
RGBA images to a similar size of PNG, while offering a 20x-50x speedup in
compression and 3x-4x speedup in decompression. All single-threaded, no
SIMD. It’s also stupidly simple.
tl;dr: 300 lines of C, single header,
source on github,
benchmark results here.

🤔 👋 Reconsidering moving Yarn.social’s development back to Github: Speaking of which (I do not forget); @fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com and I were discussing over a video call two nights ago, as well as @lyse@lyse.isobeef.org who joined a bit later, about the the whole moved of all of my projects and their source code off of Github. Whilst some folks do understand and appreciate my utter disgust over what Microsoft and Copilot did by blatantly scraping open source software’s codebases without even so much as any attempt at attribution or respecting the licenes of many (if not all?) open source projects.
That being said however, @fastidious@arrakis.netbros.com makes a very good and valid argument for putting Yarn.social’s codebases, repositories and issues back on Github for reasons that make me “torn” over my own sense of morality and ethics.
But I can live with this as long as I continue to run and operate my new (yet to be off the ground) company “Self Hosted Pty Ltd” and where it operates it’s own code hosting, servicesa, tools, etc.

A few days ago I changed my home network so that the FRITZ!Box now directly establishes a DSL connection and I can use IPv6 again.
