In-reply-to » Home | Tabby This is actually pretty cool and useful. Just tried this on my Mac locally of course and it seems to have quite good utility. What would be interesting for me would be to train it on my code and many projects 😅

@prologic@twtxt.net The hackathon project that I did recently used openai and embedded the response info into the prompt. So basically i would search for the top 3 most relevant search results to feed into the prompt and the AI would summarize to answer their question.

In-reply-to » Russia blowing up the Nova Kakhovka dam is an incomprehensible war crime. Among other things, it drains water from the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, water that is needed for cooling. They are trying to generate a widespread disaster.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci yeah, I see your point. but it’s sad to say it’s better witha blown nuclear reactor the nuke bombs being dropped around. But yeah, hope this shit ends soon. we do not notice it here at all, but the military is ramping up in the north, which is good, and much needed.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci I think the problem is that NATO does not want to get directly involved, because that scales up everything.
So they provide with the things they can to help instead. It worries me a bit (even though I live in the South of Norway - and Russia borders in the north), but it helps a lot that we have Sweden and Finland next to us. But if shit hits the fan - then it won’t be easy to get anywhere from here, unless we steal a boat and go to England or something like that (or get on a plane).
I try not to worry, but it’s in the back of my mind still.. But we have talked about it in my family, and if things happen then we have a plan on what to do first.

In-reply-to » @mckinley Yeah, that’s more clear. 👌

@prologic@twtxt.net that would work if it was using shamir’s secret sharing .. although i think its typically 3 of 5 so you get 3, one to the company, and one to the “third party”. so you can recover all you want.. but if the company or 3rd wants to they need one of your 3 to recover.

but still .. if they are providing them then whats the point of trusting they don’t have copies.

@mckinley@twtxt.net Yeah, that’s more clear. 👌

Systems that are on all the time don’t benefit as much from at-rest encryption, anyway.

Right, especially not if it’s “cloud storage”. 😅 (We’re only doing it on our backup servers, which are “real” hardware.)

@prologic@twtxt.net Yeah, we had some discussion about it once it was announced. I said what I felt (And I do love VR - but for flight simulators etc) - but I just knew it would fail.
Especially when they showed the ridiculous screenshots that they where so proud of with the quality of 15 years ago.
And they they pushed it as a place to work or have meetings during the pandemic.. haha.
And they did not even use it themselves in the company.

In-reply-to » What is a good device for home virtualization these days? I have been looking at the Intel NUC 13 pro's. Basically I want something "quiet" (ie not a screaming banshee 1U), smallish, but with lots of threads and rams. Disk will come from an external NAS.

@xuu@txt.sour.is What’s your budget?

In-reply-to » I may have misspoken in my haste/anguish. I don't know of any examples of Ben Shapiro advocating rape. I do know them of Jordan Peterson. He's known for that, but I've seen it myself. So, to be clear, I don't know if Ben Shapiro is a rape apologist and have no evidence of that. Wouldn't surprise me frankly because the set of ideas he does talk about tends to include being A-OK with crimes against women, but anyway.

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci Ben Shapiro has plenty to be ashamed of not the least of which is selling his home to Aquaman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9FGRkqUdf8

In-reply-to » Went to the barber shop today. Got a nice talk and, surprisingly, my first "contract" to 3D print something. So, I spent the last hour reading about QR codes, versions and patterns and rescue data to embed an image in the centre of the code. Then it took me some time to convert it from a PNG to an SVG to an STL, so I can put it into Tinkercad to design the new plate. I now have a baseplate, a backplate with the QRCode & two smaller plates which I have to glue into placeholders on the backplate.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net That looks cool!

@prologic@twtxt.net They have some markdown support that you can use, but I have not looked into that yet, I might check on that for clickable links in label.
I now just get all the attached links in each post, check for direct links to images, download them and show them as in the screenshot.

@carsten@yarn.zn80.net Yeah, I keep my account too - do not want to get rid of it, but I do not post much anymore there at all, just retweet stuff I find interresting. Also I’m so boring there that I get almost no followers and such, never got any traction there, even though I’ve been there since 2008. I write more here then there, and get more response here as well.

In-reply-to » Had to add all my crypto to my taxes, damn that is a painful process. There are online services that helps with that part, so I use that to help. but I have transactions all over the place, so it takes a lot of time. But now it's done for this years tax report :)

@prologic@twtxt.net The good thing here at least is that you get back on your taxes if you loose money, so that helps a bit, and if you buy mining gear you can write some of the cost up as well etc. So it’s a pretty nice that they have done it that way here. The only downside is what I mentioned already - the complexity of filing it all.

@prologic@twtxt.net The one I actually use for something is Monero. I also mine it (asic resistant, mined with cpu). The others I just put some savings in every month. The whole pyramid scheme thing - I do not think much about honestly. Crypto is here to stay, won’t go away. And for me it’s better then stocks because I know nothing about stocks and such. I do not put much into it. I also had some NFT stuff that I minted - which I sold for 10x the price later on, but honestly - last year I gained as much as I lost, so it evened out to almost 0.

In-reply-to » an interesting observation in a post twitter reality is how services that are sprouting up to claim some of the refugees are setting themselves up as closed gardens. without the option to federate with other services. like spoutable, counter.social, post, clubhouse and such.

@prologic@twtxt.net closed as in you have to be an account on their service to interact with others. And can’t communicate cross service. Some require you to be logged in to view content. Others will pop up annoying overlays after scrolling some content to sign up for more.

@prologic@twtxt.net yeah. Everything else on my taxes are already folled in. For crypto you need to add each and every transaction. The online service I use has api to each major exchange, pulls the data and crunches the numbers for you though. The problems start when you use decentralised exchanges or unsupported wallets etc. Took some hours to sort out on my end. But now I do not have to worry about it. 😀

In-reply-to » @darch I think having a way to layer on features so those who can support/desire them can. It would be best for the community to be able to layer on (or off) the features.

@xuu@txt.sour.is @prologic@twtxt.net Yarn.social without threading (as it would be the case in a “truncated” feed) does not make sense to me.

Put another way: Yarn.social is not twtxt. The content that we all have in our feeds really is much closer to a web forum or usenet or whatever. It’s threaded conversations. twtxt, as I believe it was originally intended, are short little status updates – that’s it. The formats of Yarn.social and twtxt might be very similar, but the content is vastly different and, in a way, incompatible. (As such, I think I understand very well that the original twtxt crowd is disgruntled.)

That proposed truncated feed doesn’t really provide any value, if you ask me. 🤔 It’d just be chaotic.

We could ask them? But on the counter would bukket or jan6 follow the pure twtxt feeds? Probably not either way… We could use content negotiation as well. text/plain for basic and text/yarn for enhanced.

An option would be to have /twtxt.txt be the base functionality as bukket intended without subject tags, markdown, images and such truncated to 140 chars. a /yarn.txt that has all the extentions as we know and love. and maybe a /.well-known/webfinger + (TBD endpoint) that adds on the crypto enhancements that further extend things.

In-reply-to » 'You Just Lied': Elon Musk Slaughters BBC Reporter In Live Interview - YouTube As much as I don't hold a very high opinion of Elon Musk (and to be fair I don't actually know him all that well, only what I've read about him and observed), this particular video however is quite hilarious. This (ignoring the Twitter™ nonsense) is hilariously funny and quite on point. "Who decides whether its misinformation anyway?" And "You can't even provide one example" Haha 🤣

@shreyan@twtxt.net @prologic@twtxt.net I like the way he did that interview, that way they cannot warp what’s being said etc.
