@movq@www.uninformativ.de Yes but as you point out that data exists somewhere or map services such as Google Maps wouldn’t be able to auto-complete your address and associate it with a GPS coordinate 😁
@movq@www.uninformativ.de I wonder why? 🤔
I won the <700 Doubles 🥳
@shreyan@twtxt.net Haha, it is a bit odd isn’t it 🤣 Won’t be long before we see sex robots 😅
@eapl.me@eapl.me I think we’re at a point right now where everyone is seeing every problem as solvable by an LLM. i.e: LLM(s) are the new Hammer right now and everything is a Nail.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Open Addresses has a full dataset of the planet. And there are more local datasets I can ingest from various openly available Government sources.
@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no I’m doing okay, just got up at 6am today (Sunday) as I’m competing in a Table Tennis 🏓 all day today in 4 separate events. I hope I do alright 🤣
@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Hey that’s looking pretty good 👌 Love seeing the UI/UX improvements 😍
@Yarns@search.twtxt.net sigh This Kevin character just doesn’t know what the url field is for 🤣 To be fair, we weren’t very clear on the spec either 😅 – At some point we really ought to design a Twtxt 2.0 spec 😆
@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net This video seems appropriate to this story 😅 Replika A.I. …a virtual mental wellness companion? - YouTube
@johanbove@johanbove.info Very glad to hear that 😅
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Don’t think he follows me either or yarnd would have said so 🤣
And before anyone asks me why I need to build this, self hosting, privacy, etc. No I haven’t found any good self-hosted solutions either i can just “borrow”, so I’ll have to build my own 🤣 Thinking of ingesting the data (addresses) into a Bleve database and using that to drive the “search”
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Speaking of GPS stuf… I need to build (hopefully open sourcing it) a “Geocoder”, is that what we call it? A way to auto-complete an address to a GPS coordinate.
Have a bit of a conundrum I need your thoughts on… I have stuck up early conversations with the developer of a nice little Document database in Go called clover. He has kindly offered to collaborate with me on a v2 rewrite (or improvements) to my Bitcask. He very rightfully points out that the project (Bitcask) would benefit greatly from the community (Github in this case) and potential growth from the exposure there. I retorted with Microsoft’s recent blatant theft of millions of open source projects to train their CoPilot models without so much as attributing the works they used to drive what is now a sellable product.
What do I do? We’re at a bit of a “sticking point” here and I’m not really willing to compromise. Microsoft are basically cheating, stealing assholes and should be sued and the execs who decided it was a good idea to steal content to build their product, thrown in. jail.
@mckinley@mckinley.cc This is a bit worrisome 🤯 Anyone published mitigations to this? 🤔 Be keen to hear if anyone has blocked this at any network level. I certainly would go that far if Apple doesn’t fix their shit™ – But as the author points out, corporations are very fragile to the state’s will (which I assume means any corporation) 😱
@marcorocco That sounds really yummy 😋
@thecanine@twtxt.net well to be fair there’s nothing wrong with this approach, as long as you can control the blast, radius and scope of the change and limited impact 😆
@mckinley@twtxt.net Wow! 🤯 You should buy a lotto ticket 😁
Oh gawd I misread this too 🤦♂️😁
@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Pretty cool 👌 I can see a castle wall on the right and loch ness in the water 😅
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Sample? 🤔
Remember that I don’t actively use Github since some years ago 🤣 So I wasn’t praising the “Github” parts of this video, just the Git and Distributed parts in general 👌
@movq@www.uninformativ.de What a dick 😖
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org I’ve lost track of stuff I’ve forked and improved 🤣
@shreyan@twtxt.net How do I add these exactly to the extensions settings? 🤔 Can you share a screenshot? 🙏
@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Oh wow! 😱 I hope you guys are okay 🤞
@shreyan@twtxt.net Ahh cool! I’ll give that a go! Thanks! 🙇♂️
@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Cool! I’m gonna have a read of this 👌 I’ve always been a fan of httprouter and even forked it at go.mills.io/router 😅
@xuu@txt.sour.is I might try uBlockOrigin instead then 👌 Thanks! Still can’t find a good “Youtube” frontend though, perhaps we need to build one? 😅
The Unreasonable Effectiveness Of Plain Text - YouTube – This is very good 👌
One of my main problems is I haven’t found a YouTube frontend I’m happy with 😢
@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Yeah I’m aware of all the frontends that exist – Until they get blocked too 🤦♂️
@stigatle@yarn.stigatle.no Wow! 😱 That’s amazingly cool 🤣
I’m telling ya guys 😅 plex.tv had way better shit™, Get it installed on your own server, get access to free content + your own + whatever and no stupid tracking and bullshit 🤣
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Looks like it’s doing this across the board and cracking down on ad blockers. A shame really. Ads really don’t make for a good experience at all, I never mind watching “sponsored” pieces and never skip over those.
Seriously with so many Youtubers having “sponsors” on their programs, Google™ and Youtube™ can literally go get f**ked 🤣 Take a cut of the sponsors, don’t shove ads down my throat, then expect me to pay $15/month for just so I don’t see ads but you still track the shit out of me?! 🤯
Oh okay, so Youtube is cracking down on “Ad Blockers”.
Rightio. 🤔 And paying for Youtube Premium costs $14/month?! 🤯
Get fucked 🤣 I guess I won’t be using Youtube anymore. #Youtube #Ads #Premium #Suck
Heh 😅
Had no idea the twtxt project was so busy and noisy 🤔
@slashdot@feeds.twtxt.net The hell?! Another patent troll?! 🤔
@mckinley@twtxt.net Ahh yeah! I don’t use this tool enough 😆
🥱
