Your future doctor is using ChatGPT to pass medical school, so you better start riding a bike and eating healthy now.

@Miaourt Oh snap. Ty for the link. Might give it a shot next week. Would you like me to report back if I had success? :o

@nasser github.com/RangerMauve/hyper-s Source code. We passed around a little usb webcam to scan the qr code and enter the url into a cli 😝

@nasser A few dozen lines of hyper-sdk. Hypercore for appending messages and discovering peers.

Meta have been asking some users to confirm their identity with a 'video selfie', & for supposed account recovery. Soon, more users will be asked with threat of blocking or deleting their account as Meta prepares to launch their facial recog glasses (soon on shelves).

But it's not just about feeding their new product. Meta are harvesting biometric data on a vast scale, perhaps globally, & in full cohort with a dangerous regime.

Leaving Meta is an important act of resistance, now more than ever

@rndeon Yeah! Feel free to join the meetup group for updates. I'm thinking of doing it monthly but that depends on interest and whether we can secure venues. 😅

Trying ti get system logs on Android to debug issues can be such a slog. I can't just filter by process ID so I have a grep with a hundred item log OR regex to wittle it down to just the items I care about.

Been falling asleep a bit earlier latey which is great. Also been waking up earlier and not feeling rested which is less great. 🤡
