when the adhdmancer adept is able to precisely balance two equidisinteresting tasks, they may set up a standing wave of procrastinative oscillation between them which successfully consumes both while generating mana for future spells

@shibacomputer TBH I would be absolutely enraged in your position. 😅 Whack that an effectively brand new device would have such an issue.

Oh! Does it charge if you do a hard reboot and only enter the steam game mode?

@shibacomputer Jeeze. That's a rough spot to be in. Sadly I haven't got any experience in this realm. I wish you luck tinkering! 🙏 Hopefully it's something that can be delt with software side. I also found the steam forums / steamdeck reddit have been pretty good for finding other people debugging this stuff.

IMO any project using and should have a path to exposing their data as Triple Pattern Fragments so that it can be actually usable. Without it we get into a situation where everyone needs to duplicate everyone's data and increase resource usage. It also cements large centralized databases into power. Having a lightweight query layer is essential for having lightweight clients.

@shibacomputer Weeeeeeeird. That's super strange. This is on the stable release and everything? Might be something to ping valve support over. I think these things come with some flavor of warranty?

@shibacomputer So far I've just been charging with my dock and it's been stable. I don't use the USB port much outside of that. 🤔

Can you still connect other USB devices to it? (I guess you can't test that if it's out of battery though).

i just set up a new domain and it has https and it was free and easy and using standard debian packages (nginx, certbot), and cron

this used to be horrible and expensive. tysm

If nothing else, Mastodon seems to be pretty convincing evidence that an edit button can work. I'm not seeing many cases of it being abused the way many worried it would be.

Bad actors are the problem, not the tools. Get rid of the bad faith people, and we can have nice things.

@tychi Snap! That's a great approach 🤯 I could make a basic vtuber or something that way

@tychi Perfect, thank you. i'll give it a shot this week 🙇

What are folks using for basic video editing on ?

i just need to slice up a video and cut out some ums and uhs.

contemplating using raw ffmpeg even

@trevorflowers I preordered one at the beginning of the month so hopefully it'll arrive within a month or two. I'll let you know what I think of it. :)

But honestly even the crappy md gaze is already convenient. Main thing I want from tge rokid is the brightness adjustment buttons and the myopia correction feature so I don't have to squint as much

#philosophy question: do you think information can exist outside of an interpretation structure? for example, is the ink on a page “information,” or is it only once it enters a mind? (this is not really about the nature of cognition or any of that, we could be talking about chemical signals and insects, or protein markers in cells… just using text/reading as an easy example)

@trevorflowers Like for my UI or the hardware? For UI I'm just using plasma desktop. later I'm hoping to use @stardustxr once it gets more stable.

For hardware I'm using a Mad Gaze Glow Plus, but it sucks and I plan to switch it with the Rokid Max

it's one of those cases where every single problem is easily fixable, except there's another layer underneath that prevents that easy fix from working. That layer also has an easy fix... except there's another layer underneath that

@trevorflowers This is pretty similar to the setup I'm working towards.

I've got my steam deck as the primary compute portion and have either external 2d displays connected or head mounted display when I'm on the go or laying down.

I wish we would dream new dreams instead of yearning to retreat to a nostalgia-infused trad-core digital culture. New dreams matter, because this lost internet is a lie. Its aesthetics and traditions were conceived in the halls, offices and garages of the very companies that control, surveil and ruin the world. Why would we want to go back to the start, knowing where it goes and how it ends?
