Mauve 👁💜 @mauve@mastodon.mauve.moe

Using my phone feels so limiting now that I've started using my steam deck around the house.

Zero multitasking and typing on this thing sucks compared to the dual touchpad virtual keyboard and my custom STT setup

Honestly, I wish I could interact with everything through APIs instead of fancy user interfaces. I hate having to install extra apps and dig around before I can find the button I need to click to do the thing I want to do.

This message brought to you by me being frustrated with how long it took to get access to EFTs from my bank.

Honestly, I almost feel like I'm missing out on all this mastodon social spam. :P

Maybe my instance doesn't have enough reach for bots to bother.

Gonna try this one next.

It's the same thing but apparently the quantization is "better" according to this huggingface post: https://huggingface.co/8bit-coder/alpaca-7b-nativeEnhanced/discussions/5

As expected, this thing can't code for shit. :P

Cursed cURL request:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" -X PUT -X Content-Type: application/octet-stream -X Accept: */* -H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_API_KEY>" --get-header "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" --get-header "Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"site.tar\"" $tar https://api.distributed.press/site/$site_url

Just ran a lil LLM on my #SteamDeck. 7b with 4bit quantization so it's pretty small and dumb. I'm calling it stink-demon.

I'm gonna try to get it to do simple formatting tasks from text I've selected with my mouse based on the speech to text I'm adding to my deck via Vosk and steam-dictation.

After two hours of fixating on it I have discovered I am not hardcore enough for a split keyboard. 🤪

The ones that seem most appealing are custom built and I just don't have the hardware knowledge or expendible income go gain it / the tools for it at the moment.

Anyone know of an alternative to 1password and the such which is self hosted #opensource and supports acting as a #2fa app?

@76c71aae3a491f1d9eec47cba17e229cda4113a0bbb6e6ae1776d7643e29cafa Hey! Does the bridge work?

Fug. I really don't want to do the dance of setting up my 2FA on for everything again. Might just leave it on my old computer and VPN in whenever I need it. 🤪

Ugh. I wish things that required #2FA authenticator apps were required to support having multiple apps. I've been using KeySmith on KDE and I have no way to reuse my data on a second device. 🙃

4. Federated moderation

It's likely we won't have time for this in our current sprint, but I'd personally love to collaborate with groups thinking about how we can more easily opt into blocklists. For example, if you run a distributed press instance, it should be useful for all the sites on your community to opt into a blocklist instead of having to moderate everything on their own.

3. Word filters

In a lot of cases it's pretty safe to just say "We don't want any slurs, or anything that looks like a slur on our blog. Or similar with particular trigger words if you have a community that would be vulnerable to them.

Similar to blocking instances, we'll have a way to paste a list of words you just want auto-filtered out before the mods even see them.

2. Allow/Block lists.

In addition to the manual processing, we will also have a way to say "Filter out anything from this particular domain" or "Filter out anything that isn't from this domain.

We'll have a way to add to these lists one by one, but from what I've heard having a way to send a newline delimited list is something a lot of folks have wanted from Mastodon to make it easier to paste in entire block lists.
