@laxla Yeah I've been thinking about having a "universal client" which can enable users to hotswap UIs for object types.

We've got the raw foundations for this inside https://reader.distributed.press in that it's a fully client side indexer and doesn't need to care about implementations as much.

Anyone interested in playing slow asynchronous games of polytopia?

@vbatts Cool! Do you use it with wayland and SMB? I only found MPD because waybar had a default plugin for it. I've been trying to get an easy way to play music from my NAS but all the players I've tried seem to have trouble with SMB shares. 😅

@yhancik That's so clever!

@yhancik Snap! How does the alarm clock play into it? Do you have a script that plays a specific file? Does it resume playback of your previous tracks when it finishes?

Gonna ditch bothering with graphical media players and use a systemd service for music playing from my smb share.

I love Mondays. Refreshed from the weekend. No meetings so I can actually code and write. Maybe I'll have time to actually cook a yummy lunch today.

@beka_valentine It frustrates me a bit tjat web browsers no longer support protocols outside of HTTP and that cloud folks have pretty much solidified on using HTTP everywhere as well. 🤔

One thing about the Microsoft Recall thing is it's defs going to be used to train AI to make a sort of "Digital Twin" of people using computers. At least I'm guessing that's why they want all this user data.

@stebalien Nice. I have firefox opening all zoom links in a container.

Made a #greasemonkey script to redirect zoom to the web version automatically. I hate the zoom app and I hate having to manually convert invites :P

@skryking Yeah that's a cool idea. I wonder if it'd be able to run efficiently on IoT devices. I think a cli tool that can tunnel anything over tcp could be cool. Kinda like the wormhole stuff built on top of hyperswarm

@skryking Nothing yet but one of my clients is going to be doing secure decentralized storage for activist use cases. I'm hoping to integrate it with @agregore as a sort of "hidden services" protocol where you connect a local http server to a veilid tunnel and can load `http+veilid://{tunnel id}/` in Agregore to access it from anywhere. Unsure when I'll get around to releasing it yet. :P
