I'm thankful to the folks working on Arch Linux packages. Using pacman to set up my Android dev environment without needing to mess with Android Studio has been great.

Homeownership on the web is highly analogous to the physical world. Modern homeownership is mostly a story of home-rentership, not real ownership.

Incredibly, this matches the online experience, even though the World Wide Web has an infinite amount of real-estate!

You deserve a home on the web that’s built to keep you safe; a magical place for virtual living that‘s yours for life, existing in a sociable web.

i had a bajillion technical issues but it mostly worked out. As usual people were more curious about my GPD Win 4 than whatever I had to say about local LLMs. 😅

Someone made a BBS that runs on Meshtastic.

Welp. Guess I know what I’m doing next.

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.
