It'd actually be so wild if the programming industry had settled on royalties for written code instead of fully giving up your copyright to corporations.

@munin I'm low key obsessed with it. Do let me know if you end up tinkering with it!

One of the reasons that @agregore doesn't have tabs is to reduce the amount of vertical screen realestate being taken up by them. Especially now that I'm using my GPD Win 4 with limited vertical space I find apps like Firefox leave little room for actual data. Also web apps are so addicted to extra padding and empty space all over the place TT_TT

Spiraling into control. Consumed from all sides while expanding into new dimensions.

@jalcine Concept: Instead of a keyboard there's a mic that recognizes the nato phonetic alphabet with a push to talk button.

Oof, looks like I'll need to create a new Matrix space to hold all the AI channels/discords I've been sucked into :P

@mixmix @stardustxr Yeah! I actually liked the design of the rokid glasses before the Max which looked like a cylon visor of sorts. I thing lobger term I'm going to ditch the see through glasses form factor and go witg something like a bigscreen vr headsrt and a 360 camera on a tripod to get a third persib view

@wrstscrnnm6 Oh wow that's very useful thank you. Is this something you've used for your own projects already?

Old blogpost bamp:

#BlueSky is cosplaying decentralization
rys.io/en/167.html

> BlueSky’s decentralization is a similar kind as with cryptocurrencies: sure, you can run your own node, but that does not give you basically any meaningful agency in the system.

> “Neutrality” and “speech” and “voice” and “protection from bans” is mentioned right there, front and center, in BlueSky’s overview and FAQ. At the same time moderation and anti-harassment features are, at best, an afterthought.

5. Kinda want to add EEGs to my loadout. Maybe for controlling a cursor in XR? Biggest question is whether there are SDKs that work on Linux. emotiv.com/insight/

A decade of monkey patching and code transformation has made information systems my plaything.

Doing evil things to code for work. 😈

Transforming ASTs to add extra fields for data provenance.

Music to get me in the mood for sign weaving:

Instead of top down or bottom up I'm more like a throw a few strands into the problem space and then traverse between them and out.

Good morning! It’s the first Tuesday in February, and so you’re all invited to look through Wikipedia’s List of common misconceptions (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_) per xkcd custom.

@ryanramage their software offerings are a bit weaker than the XReal for example but the brightness and diopters make it worth it since I mostly want it as a screen. I also paid a person to make OpenXR drivers for it if you're into that sort of thing :P The Xreal Beam is a lot cooler than the Rokid Station tho.

@ryanramage Yeah! I daily drive ny Rokid Max headset. global.rokid.com/products/roki

The built in diopters are nice so I can show folks with different perscriptions. I have a bit of astigmatism that they can't correct for though.

The readability has been okay for me at the 1080p rez when I'm sitting but I find it useful to bump the scaling to 200% when I'm walking around.

@fleeky Unsure yet! I still need to configure it a bit more before I can daily drive it. I need to find a way to launch the desktop in a gamescope shell so that the keyboard events from the controllers can be properly passed through.

So far the keyboard has some more convenient features than my Rii i8+. It's defs heavier and requires my fingers to reach further. Luckily my fingers aren't short. :P

@fleeky There's a keyboard yeah. Also set up my speech to text engine last night. I usually use the glasses but the lil screen is okay for basic web browsing and gaming.

I won't be novel in saying huge tech companies are roughly what Big Tobacco was a few decades ago.

By now the harm they cause is increasingly clear, but everyone's hooked. It's hard or impossible to quit cold-turkey, and they know it.

So they milk it as long as they can, and engage in irrelevant performative actions (Zuck apologized, but did not offer any compensation) to make it rain as long as possible.

Yeah, excuse me for not having the stomach for the hype they peddle as a distraction. 🤷‍♀️
