@arichtman I usually supplement it with frozen or freshly cut veg 😎👉👉
re-upped my fancy instant noodle supply 😈 The one I had today had like 6 mysterious packets of goop in it.
I think social media platforms should have a block button that's like "fuck you, and fuck all your friends". Less so on the fedi but I think a lot of other platforms for "creators" could stand to benefit it as a more efficient way to cull trolls
@kravemir @lutindiscret @thibaultamartin Your best bet for "out of the box" stuff would be to use the Tor Borwser and set uo your NAS with some hidden services. It's a bit slow but it's the most mature option and gets the job done. I've been looking at options to add to @agregore for this use case too. https://ipnslink.com/ looked appealing but it got abandoned. Also gonna be experimenting with #veilid once I get the hang of it
@lutindiscret @kravemir @thibaultamartin the requirement of not wanting clients that support custom protocols makes it way harder. You are basically stuck with HTTPS then since there's no other protocols you can use in a browser. The best you can do then is something like ngrok which can be a proxy to your local service but then you're stuck paying for a service again. You need to use new clients if you want to break free of https.

Just remember, kids: It's perfectly legal for people to take your writing, code, videos, music and other works into a 'dataset' that can be used to train an LLM model to forge your art or writing style -- for money.
But if a nonprofit decides to purchase hardcopy books, scan them in, and create a digital lending program providing works to anyone who asks -- for free, that's checks notes illegal. :D
@skryking different folders on one computer. It randomly started working again so I have a horrible suspicion it has to do with a peer on the network acting up.
Riddle me this Batman: WHen I run some code in one project it seems to work fine, but pretty much the exact same code in another project causes unexplainable stack overflows. How is that possible when the dependencies are the same version?
I love wasting hours and hours on build issues and random failures on startup instead of actual code.

It just occurred to me that the phases in waterfall software development could just as well have been named after the stages of grief:
1. denial (requirements and design)
2. anger (implementation)
3. bargaining (functional testing)
4. depression (alpha & beta testing) and
5. acceptance (release)

someone over on bsky asked me if anyone knows of any active Brazilian-focused instances that are good (active and well moderated)
if you know any please reply and i'll make sure your suggestion gets passed along
@iyashikei_kris the thing is the suggestion doesn't even make sense in the context of the project. Markdown in Agregore is rendered to pretty much the same HTML as the gemtext so there would be no point in doing the extra conversion step. This is why it feels like there was a prompt like "make a suggestion for a change to this github repo" instead of an actual need before going to prompt.
@iyashikei_kris The fact their activity is private is also sus. Like is it a bot auto-creating issues?
Is it just me or do folks see issues with long list based explanations as being potentially LLM generated?

Can you boost this please? I'm sort of load-testing / trying to reproduce a bug, and I think I need a bit more traffic to do so. Thank you!
@TheBierFrau I'm sure corpos would be happier for folks to die from overwork at home

DIY, pirated medicine is becoming increasingly accessible and easier to make due to automation, new tech, and new software developed and released by Four Thieves Vinegar Collective:

My cats have decided that my morning meetings are the best time to get super needy and meow non-stop.

MPs should not be landlords.
MPs should not have outside employments.
MPs should not be allowed to receive gifts of any kind (which are bribes pure and simple).
They already get nearly 100K salary and many claim 200K expenses on top of that.
The whole system is corrupt.
Anyone wanna hire me to touch computers for your bioengineering project? :P I specialize in managing information flow and databases, particularly in decentralized / distributed setups. e.g. agregating data from different groups without needing one central database.
