Been sick since Friday and it's been a major productivity hit. 🫠🫠

Now was also probably the worst time in the past couple months to be sick too

Quick reminder that we are not actually in a "Cost of Living Crisis".

It's a Extreme Inequality and Record Untaxed Profits Crisis.

While we struggle for the basics, banks, energy companies, supermarkets and the oligarchs are posting record breaking profits.

It would be pretty straight forward to even it out. If they wanted to.

Don't buy the framing that makes it seem like nothing can be done, other than suffering through it.

@futurebird The science fiction species I'm writing are plant-people. Their "technology" is largely biohacking of their (and other plant) physiology.

A backpack? It's a living plant grafted to the host. A space ship? One of the People sacrificed themselves to be mutated into that vessel. Communication and transportation? "World trees" link colonies whose space-born seeds offer zero-risk expansion. #peirspapre #spapre

The complexity of life and its interactions will never cease to amaze.

there was a post that went by recently like “the weird thing about Open Source is that PhD research relies on the work of college dropouts”, but I’m really looking forward to the first respectable conference or journal paper with a citation like:

Woof, wish I could clear attachments in a more fine grained way on

I wanna keep my files and the files of folks I follow, but all the random junk that gets added should be easier to purge. Honestly not a fan of all the wasted storage on this thing.

@aynish I haven't had a chance to try it yet since I'm having linker errors compiling monado :P But the dev that did the work got it working so 3dof tracking should work. I got 2d rendering working in the past from prebuilt binaries

grocery stores: record profits for like 3 years

also grocery stores: we're so sad to be pricing poor people out of being able to buy food but we have no choice due to the definitely real and very not made up phenomenon of Inflations 😪

does there exist a device which:
- is bluetooth
- presents as a bluetooth device to a computer
- lets me have multiple connections hot at the same time
- muxes these down into one bluetooth channel

I want something that lets me hear all my audio sources, through one bluetooth headset. Laptop + desktop + tablet + phone.

Instead of only the active one.

As a last resort I am willing to pursue raspberry pi implimentations if you have ideas.

please boost.

edit: no multipoint

@easrng speedrun it by holding down the y key and skipping all prompts

When life gets tough, the tough get shitposting.

Wearing my wizard robe with my spells strapped to my face (my deck). Casting evil spells (activitypub implementation) and imbibing wicked elixers (energy drinks).

Gotta wizard max to focus through this cold and meet my deadlines

@aynish I think any usbc to hdmi splitter with power input should work but they also sell their own here: xreal.com/shop/xreal-adapter.h

personally I prefer devices with native usb c video output since I don't like having to pack and unpack more cables :P

@aynish nice yeah the xreal is probs a better bet if you're not a glasses-wearer.

you might need an adapter that does power in in order to use the micro hdmi with them though.

@aynish @stardustxr Yeah I don't think the pinephone is yet a good enough substitiute for an Android phone, but I'm hoping it'll work well as an ARM Linux compute puck which I can use to drive my VR desktop on the go. Having access to data seems particularly useful since I won't need a hotspot.

@aynish Yeah... hence why I've been looking at the pinephone. Also why I paid a person to make drivers for for the rokid so thay I can use @stardustxr as my desktop window manager

My house's cat is having lil shivers in her sleep and I'm giving her more comfort to sweeten her dreams.

Very thankful to get to hang with such sweet creatures.

@aynish Rokid also sells a thing called the "Rokid Station" which is a sort of Android TV in a controller form factor which might also be appealing. It's kinda like a phone without a screen and just a controller built in. But yeah anything with usb-c video output should work, or hdmi if you get the adaptor.
