@cubicgarden Yeah! Etke.cc has a few they support out of the bpx and you can choose whatever ones you want or don't want. E.g. I didn't bother setting up twitter or linkedin

@cubicgarden Nice! I pay etke.cc to help manage the instance since it's a major pain in the ass to set up from scratch. I use a cloud VM but you can probably run something locally if you set up a public ip or a reverse proxy.

@cubicgarden I self host my matrix instance and use bridges with e2ee. I've found that organizing stuff into "spaces" has been essential to make sense of messages. E.g. i have a seperate space for messages from loved ones and meatspace friends and others for different projects I work on. It's been a huge boon for ptojects that use multiple apps for comms (discord/slack/etc at once)

@mcc I'd use the exact same format as query string ad pass it into the URLSearchParams class to parse. Easier to parse, construct, modify that way.

The flesh really do be deteriorating. I've slowed the destruction of my front paws somewhat but a lot of other parts haven't been addressed yet. Maybe access to gym equipment to strengthen it will help a bit. Some of my pals swear by running so maybe there's a balance there that I can take vs the pain. Maybe eventually it'll be mild enough that I can sleep comfortably.

Manifesting more librarian friends in meatspace. Do people still say meatspace?

@raboof I mostly use my computer (a steam deck) for programming and reading/writing web articles :)

I've played some games on it too and the screen is higher quality for that than the built in display.

It's pretty nice to be on my back in bed with a bt keyboard in my hands

@danny this, sir, wins the internet 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@trevorflowers yeah that's fair, defs not something to draw upon lightly and without context

@technobaboo @trevorflowers Agree with Nova. as a practicing fan of the occult, magic thinking and metaphores intertwined with tech fit well with my practice at large. I think that Digital servitors are just a manifestation from the astral in the physical 🤷

Best part of strapping an hmd to my face is being able to lay on my back in bed while I code and follow up on emails and the such

I like to imagine that my spelling mistakes when I type could be read kinda like a computer that's glitching out every now and then.

@Blort @linmob @matthewcroughan i think that was the Rokid Max. I use them as a daily driver and I'm working with folks on making drivers for #Monado to have #OpenXR apps like @stardustxr available for spatial computing interfaces.

C++ is consistently the most exhausting language to install dependencies for across distros and OSs. So much out there just assumes Ubuntu and apt for managing your C++ dependencies and the difficulty spikes as soon as you deviate from that.
