Global namespace extremist. Defragment your communities!
Every time I feel like I finally get kubernetes, somebody surprises me by talking about very specific, complex modern technologies being used to do basically the same thing we’ve been doing for decades by simple tools.
And I always experience the same urge to re-grow a tail and climb a tree.
No need for doubt. There is no technology in place that would guarantee any kind of privacy.
For the current version, we are using a Mistral LLM (Mistral 7B) hosted within Mozilla’s GCP instance.
Found myself replacing the broken file roller flatpak by the file roller from thr APT repo.
The desktop linux feels more and more like windows as time goes on. The things that worked fine for years are being broken in new and innovative ways.
High quality positive content
It took 3 hours and we already got to gatekeeping culture.
I use miscale 1 with gadgetbridge. Homeassistant has also autodiscivered it, but I’m hessitant to pair it with 2 different devices so no idea if it actually works.
Are there some openwrt based access points with proper client roaming? I use some random off the shelf tplinks as APs, and the connection always drops for a few seconds as I walk through the house. Turns out, I walk around a lot while talking on the phone.
I’ve been playing with the idea of buying ubiquiti, but that’s quite overpriced, especially considering that the budget option goes 90% of the way for at least 1/10 of the price.
So does Turris
Limbo. Now in color!
Nerds don’t just want to teach people to swim. They want to teach them about hydrogen bonds and the mineral contents of the water, the processes of water treatment, and the technical requirements for a functional pool.
And I think that’s beautiful. There is nothing like watching someone explain something they’re passionate about.
The Linux part was never a problem. The userspace is.
For the proper opensource apps, this can be fixed by the package maintainers (shout-out to the real heroes!).
For proprietary, compile-once run anywhere apps, that was always a problem. For more info, I recommend this great FOSDEM talk by Simon McVittie from Collabora.
Detroit: Become Human
It was the only story ever that has pulled me in completely. I wasn’t just playing it, I was living it. It took me 2 more days to come down to earth after finishing it.
Reminds me of chakra linux. Same principals, except built on top of Arch base, and the other toolkit apps were distributed as self contained image files.
I’ve been using LawnChair, and they’ve dropped the feature for some time. I think it was being re-written from scratch. It just got back in the last month or so.
Way beyond fist shaking here. My brain simply doesn’t process the trendy flat UX. It looks like when my kitchen garbage can tips over. A piece of carrot here, empty milk crate over there, sprinkled with onion peels, and some unidentified goop that I only discover later in the evening, using my bare feet, while getting a cup of water…
What’s weird though is that I similarly hate the circle android icons. They all kinda blend together like a bowl of skittles. Make them squircle though… instantly recognizable!
People tried to bring more content through bridges. Mastodonians promptly started crying about how it literally puts peoples lifes in danger. Some still have #nobridge tags in their profiles to this day, thinking it matters somehow in an open network.
Nothing? Im as pessimistic as it gets, but it has provided traction for at least 3 competing decentralized alternatives.
Hope not. The new translation tools is great.
For a relatively long time I was under the impression that Servo is pretty advanced, but after the last weeks news, I’m not so sure anymore.
The value of an art piece is always subjective. The price (closest thing we have to the objective value) is determined by the buyers.
What other mechanism would there be? A committee? That’s a bit nazi for my taste. A popular vote? Look at the election results to see why that might be a bad idea.
The theme is a bit touchy these days, especially in certain small country in eastern europe, where the new minister started to cut subsidies to the art she considers unworthy, obscene and politicized, in favor of art reflecting so called traditional values and national identity. The mere existence of the ministry of culture, established with the most noble goal of supporting art, creates this kind of potential vulnerability.
In my experience, this is not the case. It just says it can’t connect. Doesn’t specify how or where to.
