The image is of a four panel comic.
The title above the first two panels reads, "Dog Toys".
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a bone shaped dog toy. She says, "Look!"
The second panel shows a dog wagging its tail. There is a speech bubble leading back to Sarah saying "It squeaks!"
The title above the last two panels reads, "Cat Toys".
In panel three we see Sarah again. She says "Come, child."
Panel four shows a cat raising its paws in glee. We see Sarah's hands holding cat nip. We see a speech bubble leading back to Sarah saying "It is time to do drugs".

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, in heaven. A dog with little wings runs towards her open arms. Off panel, a speech bubble reads “welcome to Heaven! Here is your dog!”
The second panel zooms in on Sarah’s face. She says, “where’s my cat?”
The third panel zooms out. There are dogs with little wings everywhere. Sarah says, “Where’s ANY of the cats?”
The fourth panel shows a circle of cats holding hands and dancing gleefully surrounded by flames in hell.

This post is an expansion of what I wrote on r/archlinux as a proposal for AUR helpers. It is a call for every package manager to add support for global hooks.

pinning* all external taps.

Nemo @captnemo.in · 07/05/2026
As a side-note, I'm having to use Homebrew these days, and I've been quite happy with the security posture of the core stuff. I've been all external taps, and disabled auto-updates (only weird default I can complain about), but they care about shipping securely.

Nemo @captnemo.in · 07/05/2026
I like this idea because the “Packager is responsible for security” hasn’t been true for a while across many places. Rolling distros like Arch, but also places like Homebrew. Letting something age before packaging is a good idea. Not that different from Debian staging but worth it in some contexts.

Two more blog posts I need to write: 1: Why GitHub needs to build an IAM service, and why adding support for a OIDC-App integration is probably the simplest way to ship this. 2. Why username.github.io is the right way to host your website if you care about longevity. Maybe this month? #ideas

Need to dress this into a blog post, but: 1. Expect a lot more supply chain attacks via GitHub Actions this year. I wouldn’t be surprised if we get a very popular action breached. 2. Do this: a: Run Zizmor b: Pin/Lock *everything* c: Find arbitrary code in your CI and PIN it as well.

Same. I remember the original GitHub Issues pitch where they showcased the huge list of fields on Jira and Redmine to compare. Now GitHub is the same. Wish they had a minimal mode to turn off “issue links, milestones, assignees, reviewers, projects”.

Nemo @captnemo.in · 22/02/2026
I’ve been having similar thoughts on that. Realising that for me, a public issue tracker is a bigger selling point. More of the community contributes via bug reports and feature discussions than actual code. Throw code over the wall, but give us something* to let public feedback happen.
