I got myself a doctorate from the University of Library Genesis

Presenting the local LLM stuff in Agregore tomorrow at the branch of AI Tinkerers. Hopefully it all goes smoothly :)

Mastodon is benefitting from the #X exodus (eXodus?) too: The official app downloads are up 47% on iOS and 17% on Android. Sign-ups are up approx. 27% compared to previous month with about 90K new accounts, while the MAU has jumped to 894K (across all Mastodon servers).

@oceane @lrvick oh, we are very much working with and for people in heavily repressive situations and they often use #deltachat when signal, threema, WhatsApp don't work .... And even if they do. Why? Because our apps provide instant onboarding without phone numbers, multi-profile and multi-device support and a pretty secure audited and analysed key management protocol without key servers. Plus support for state of the art circumvention proxying. There is a whole lot more than PFS to consider.

But now comes the hard part. Finding a server. This can be frustrating to the new user. There are over 3000 servers listed on the Mastodon site, where you can choose the ones that match your interests. They will all be closed to new members.

Bringing up the phase of the moon is defs upping my witchy factor 😈

Have you ever lost digital content or a website? After a major project went offline, filmmaker Brandon Tauszik realized the need to preserve his work from link rot. So StarlingLab teamed up with us and SuttyWeb to create a future-proof, portable version of his portfolio. The websites were recreated in a way to be cloned and hosted in multiple places. We published copies on IPFS and Hypercore as portable code, making them resilient to link rot! Read more here: starlinglab.org/case-studies-l

@makeworld I've been downloading mp3s of stuff I listen to offten so I can have an archive and support random devices

@polpo you know what's crazy? One time I accidentally cracked a full-size SD Card open, and I found that inside it was just a microSD card adapter with a permanently attached microSD card.

Easier to see the 3D when it's only the camera that's moving.

The full moon is coming up. Be gentle with yourself and be weary of rash decisions.

Can confirm that getting an extra 10 GB of RAM to allocate to applications has improved my quality of life :P

@mcc termux with Unexpected Keyboard has been pretty comfy for me.

I love long weekends but the hectic first day of catching up on meetings and emails can be a lot :P

@KekunPlazas I'm in the process of migrating to "Organic Maps" which is going well so far.

Id like to put my lab servers to work archiving US federal data thats likely to get pulled - climate and biomed data seems mostly likely. The most obvious strategy to me seems like setting up mirror torrents on academictorrents. Anyone compiling a list of at-risk data yet?

@rmond Those are more about routing packets to specific devices no? I was thinking more along the lines of Hypercore Protocol or BitTorrent, but with a network aware gossip thing that'd work kinda like the original freenet.

Really wanna do some content addressed p2p data sharing over meshtastic :o
