I'm really getting sick of having to keep turning off Apple Intelligence every time one of my devices updates, which they do fairly frequently. Apple needs to respect their customers' choices and stop this crap now.

uBlock Origin has the potential to save the average global Internet user more than 100 h annually. The energy conserved if everyone in the United States used the open source ad blocker would save over 36 Americans lives per year if it were to offset coal-fired electricity generated-based pollution.
Getting acquainted with a new codebase is like putting on one of those costumes with a dozen pieces attached with little belts and buckles. Gotta figure out which side is up and where the hands are supposed to go.
Question for #nostr folks on the other side of the @6be38f8c63df7dbf84db7ec4a6e6fbbd8d19dca3b980efad18585c46f04b26f9 bridge: What does it look like my Nostr ID is to you? I want to link to it on my websites but I'm not able to see it on the mostr site. I signed up back before they had a nice UI so I wonder if my account is bugged
More like eventually inconsistant with low availability amirite? 🤪
Low key contemplating writing a new encrypted p2p chat thingie to aggregate messages from other apps but skipping the dependency on append only logs and pre-indexing the data for sparse querying when booting the device 👀
*shakes fist in the air* Curse you operation logs with long historyyyy~~
Every time I try to boot element on Android it becomes unusable because it can't handle the volume of channels I'm in.

"They only think about one thing, and it's disgusting."
I'm not talking about sex. I'm talking about rent. And the people who see the world through the rent-seeking lens.
Someone, ideally everyone needs to pay tithes to them, they reason. And not for some ongoing service. Not because of any value they create, but because of value they hold. Value that can never be bought and paid off in full. A nation or king might collect tax, why not me they reason.
Starting my first day working on #mapeo with Awana Digital.
Gonna be responsible for making the p2p and data side of things reliable and to help develop and deploy features for folks in the field. 🥰

Bring back full size scrollbars!
I hate scrolling long pages with a wheel, and trying to target the 5 pixel wide draggable in modern browsers on modern Windows.
Here are the slides for my presentation. Gonna share the recording later this week.

Overall it went okay and I got to show off my ignorance and how I've been slowly learning how to do this stuff. 🤪
Move over "Millenial pause", we've got the "AI assistant processing delay".
@spiralganglion Hell yeah. Excited to see what you make with it. Back when WASM was still just coming out after ASM.js I did a deep dive to figure out how to do basic things like loops and if statements with WAT. I hadn't done any ASM before so it was a bit of a mindfuck.
@spiralganglion Are you aiming to write it at the WAT level or a hex editor? :o
IF you're in #Ottawa and into #ai / #LLM stuff, check out tonight's #AITinkerers event: https://lu.ma/3clyvip5
I'm going to be talking about autoencoders and some intuition I learned trying to make a simple model.

I didn't expect "using a Torrenting client to seed US government scientific datasets because the policy settings are erasing years of research" on my 2025 bingo card but here we are.
You wouldn't download America's scientific research output would you?
EDIT: Several people have contacted me for the link.
(Better link)
and follow @SafeguardingResearch
Are all those resin dodads going to be our geological era's equivalent to amber?
Fediblock lists are fun and all but I wanna dig around in postgres and see who's in my follow graph poisoning the noosphere. Secure Scuttlebutt was great because I could see exactly how assholes would get access to my whereabouts. 🤷
