Honorable goal. But it won’t work. From a business’s perspective, hosting such a server adds inherent risk. They won’t do it. You may be able to convince them to use the fediverse through threads or bluesky, but they won’t host their own instance, even if the CTO/CIO/CISO agrees with your love for the verse. I’m not saying you shouldn’t try. I’m saying you should provide alternatives to twitter and to self-hosted mastodon; alternatives that don’t require self hosting anything.

I have a couple questions:

1. Have you ever sacrificed any humans on that altar?
2. How many humans have been sacrificed on they altar?

Tails hhahaha

That’s because a normal cup has around 20g grounds, and a Keurig capsule has 10g. This isn’t a joke. I actually weighed it.

Nah. That’s for those that like herbal tisanes lol

I use espresso, pour over, and v60 carafe from this image. But I now pretty much only use Deb and Fedora, and the occasional OpenSuse. Arch was fun, but too constantly “hands on” for use as a daily. Ubuntu used to be good (past tense). I got annoyed with constant manual compiling with Gentoo, but am considering going back to it anyway.

I absolutely LOVE that one. One of my all time favorites.

This was ONE GUY??? What a legend! I hope his family knows the giant positive impact he’s had on so many people, and is able to find some sort of comfort knowing he will be missed by so many strangers. A true tragedy.

Edit: autocorrect

Interesting delivery on quishing. Ingenuity was never their weakness, I suppose.

You just described about 60% of the internet. It’s infuriating it came to this.

Angels in the Outfield was a strange movie.

I saw the name, and immediately thought, “sweet! Another kde tool!” Then finished reading the title lol Looks like a good editor nonetheless

Edit: requires access to manage storage, which is excessive for a text editor. Pretty sure it has to do with its other features, which is fine, but I don’t feel comfortable with this type of access for any third party app. If you’re fine with this access, Xed/Karbon really looks useful. I might add it to my coding tablet.

GPT4All and Jan.AI are good places to start.

You also use Signal :fistbump:

Nice try

We each have our own levels of acceptable privacy posture. Signal make it easier for the masses to get off, say, Whatsapp and feel little to no real hurdles. I agree with you, though, that the phone number and physical phone requirements are a hard sell for people with a more strict posture requirement, which was the reason it took me long to get on it. But, alas, I had to settle, because SimpleX wasn’t available on iOS at the time (my family and friends are on iphones) and it is much more private that Hangouts or Whatsapp (which I still can’t believe we were on). We did try Matrix for a time, but it wasn’t “production ready” then, which was a deterrent to them as well. Signal being centralized wouldn’t be a huge deterrent for me, if it wasn’t for their continuous push to keep it that way and them actively preventing decentralization, both of which have been scratching me the wrong way for a while. I had a conversation with my groups to switch to something else, but they’re not all on board. Signal, they say, is “as easy as Whatsapp and more private”. I mean… they’re right, but we could have better.

Aw dang. You got a point…

Care to elaborate? I haven’t heard anything concrete against it.

Mechanical Keyboard Sounds: Recordings of Bespoke and Customized Mechanical Keyboards

Edit: This is less music, and more relaxation sounds. But I really like it.

This is a really great use of LLM! Seriously great job! Once it’s fully self-hostable (including the LLM model), I will absolutely find it space on the home server. Maybe using Rupeshs fastdcpu as the model and generation backend could work. I don’t remember what his license is, though.

Edit: added link.
