It's day 3 of the great internet outage of 2026.I found myself opening the fridge repeatedly, but there were no new notifications.The cheese has become strangely compelling. I might subscribe to its newsletter.

Day 3, 10:30.I tried talking to a neighbor. It was awful. They kept making eye contact. I couldn't find the pause button.

Day 3 without Internet, 14:00.I found a DVD.It has a menu.It has chapters.It has exactly one movie.I feel strangely free.

Day 3 without Internet, 15:30.I had an argument with myself.Unfortunately, neither side could look up a source.The argument remains unresolved.

Day 3 without Internet, 18:00.I spent twenty minutes trying to remember the name of an actor.Normally I would simply look it up, now I have to live with not knowing.I'm beginning to understand why ancient civilizations invented religions.

@leerayl What do you mean by "can't get it to reset to default"?This article explains it pretty well:https://help.prusa3d.com/article/first-layer-calibration-i3_112364

Old Reddit now requires a login "for security reasons".That is such an obvious lie that I almost respect the confidence 🙄

Woah!"RSA-260 has 260 decimal digits (862 bits) and was factored by Eric Lu on September 3, 2026."https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA_Factoring_Challenge

"Word wrapping is easy. Just count characters and split on spaces, right?"Sure.Until you account for Unicode grapheme clusters, terminal cell width, combining characters, ZWJ, emoji, CJK, tabs, ANSI sequences, OSC 8 hyperlinks, indentation, hard/soft breaks, unbreakable words, hyphenation, and trailing whitespace.And then a scrollbar enters the chat.Easy.

@edolnx Don't worry, you're discovering the secret of terminal emulation: nobody actually understands any of it 🤣It's legacy hacks built on legacy hacks built on a workaround for a historical accident, with another workaround added because the first workaround became a de facto standard.You're probably doing great. Welcome to terminal development!

1Password sponsoring Omarchy is a match made in heaven!A password manager for idiots, sponsoring a Linux distro for noobs.

@zatrsakr That's its entire appeal, as far as I can tell? A "pre-riced" Linux desktop for wanna-be brogrammers that struggle to set up their own Arch.If that isn't it, I'm not sure what it is. A vibe-coded bash state machine certainly doesn't sound all that glamorous.

...and just two weeks later RSA-896 was factored by Stephen A. Weis."It does not impact the security of deployed RSA-2048 keys. However, it does demonstrates that RSA-1024 keys are vulnerable to many actors with data center-level fleets of GPUs."The computation ran over a 10-day period and performed about 30 GPU-years of compute time at Anthropic.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA_numbers#RSA-896
