@brandon yes! i fully agree. Also the always on audio recording devices like that apple watch. That's kinda why I prefer the removable Xreal camera over the built in cameras that other headsets have. I'm going to keep it in my pouch unless I really need to feed vision into my system (which I expect to be rare)
@brandon any books or articles you could recommend that elaborate on those points?
@brandon Honestly I don't expect to use the 6DoF very often when doing actual work. the 3dof might be fun with a virtual ultrawide since that works well with niri. Longer term I think I'll be using the passthrough from the steam frame (especially so I can see in the dark with IR flashlights when I go walking in the forest and doing urbex). I think I'll mostly be using the camera for computer vision purposes like pulling text off of real surfaces or memorizing stuff.
@pawpower I'll try to manifest cheap but nuanced unsweetend teas to become a tiktok trend for all our sakes. 😸
@pawpower 100% agreed. I've been enjoying getting bottles of unsweetened tea from my local Chinese grocery store. Not sure if you have one nearby but it could be worth investigating. Sucks that restaurants are less likely to have options that aren't made by major sugar pushing drink companies though.
@pawpower OMG It's so frustrating how many drinks have artificial sweetener added in there without even being labelled as "diet" or "sugar free" or whatever. They shove in a bunch of sucralose right along side sugary beverages for no reason I can see. It'd be nice if there were more options that had no sweeteners at all. 😅
Christians should return to the principles of Distributism instead of hyperfixating on hating minorities while their world burns down around them.
@u9000 Nomadnet requires a server to be available still! I think it's reasonable to use its page format instead of gemini gemtext though.
I very recently discovered that web browsers can now do composited blur with the "backdrop-filter: blur" CSS rule. Very cool! This solves a problem I had worked around for decades (using linear gradients) on my personal website's menu items.
However, this made me discover and report a rendering bug in GNOME Web (Epiphany) and other WebKitGTK-based browsers: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=328821
Firefox (Gecko), Chromium (Blink) and Safari (WebKit) don't seem to be affected.
#gemini Gemtext over content addressed blobs over #reticulum over #LoRa.
@hazematman Yeahhhh I was gonna but I didn't have time. :P Gonna go at lunch today or somethin.
These are folks who will post anti-Musk posts, videos, fundraising requests on X then not have a backup plan when the account mysteriously disappears.
Literally, just have a backup plan. Have an account on Fedi to mirror all posts elsewhere.
Why is anyone only posting these types of things to Threads, X, TikTok?
Don’t worry though, they’ll hit you with a laundry list of reasons why they must continue to do so.
Then also say Fedi is dead.
Occult cyberpunk. Yap with me about decentralized systems, wearable computing, and biohacking.
