tbrowder guifa: i checked all the chars and nothing was found bad on my linux box. looking closer the actual tests pass on the mac, it's prove6 throwing the error after the tests pass (maybe stderr vs stdout reporting order or something). ideas welcome...g'nite all 02:05

ToddAndMargo NativeCall question.  When I get back a C pointer to a 32bit DWORD (uint32), how do I translate the pointer to the value it points to? 09:12
nine ToddAndMargo: assuming $p is a Pointer[uint32], it's just $p.deref 09:22
ToddAndMargo No such method 'deref' for invocant of type 'Int' 09:25
   my CPOINTER $Handle   = 0;  # use .deref to extract the value
constant CPOINTER := uint32; 09:26
nine That's not a pointer at all then
ToddAndMargo that would explain some things 09:28

simcop2387 Hey, because I'm a weird kind of hoarder, and because I'm working on setting up a system for us perl5 folks on perl.social, I've gone and grabbed raku.social too. If anyone wants it for a real purpose let me know and i'll transfer it along. otherwise i'm just gonna keep it for a while until i remember i have it and decide that i don't want it anymore. i'll also check back once i have the perl 17:52
one running and see if you people here might want me to stand up the same kind of thing too. perl one is going to be activitypub based twitter/facebook replacement because i don't trust twitter to not be going freenode anymore.
Current stack is using Friendica for the main web parts and Keycloak for user management and authentication (gives better MFA support, and can end up giving better tools for moderators/support in the future) 17:54

Voldenet Sorry to disappoint, but twitter is not going to end up like freenode 18:08
…after all freenode still exists in some form :>
simcop2387 yea i don't expect it to completely collapse but i do expect it to be unnaturally chaotic for a decent amount of time after all this, you know just like freenode :) 18:09
