And here I am again, shouting into the dark, baring my feelings and imagining I have to fight for the kind of attention I want/need.
This little corner of the electronic universe is so much more friendly than other places I've been, but we're still all too far away from each other, it's too difficult to connect in a way that I can understand.
You're all lovely, funny, sweet people with a dash of spicy but none of you are here in my bsmt with me, or hanging with my kids or helping me find work.
I need brothers and sisters. I need family. Uncles, aunts. I can't ask that of you. At least I feel I can't.
Might be awkward if you responded positively. What would I do then? 😅
For those prone to worry: I am safe. My family is safe. I'm in an ongoing situationship with my employer related to short term disability leave and pay. I'm trying to find work, it's proving shitty and #ADHD is not working in my favour. I've got advice.
I'd like to know I'm seen. LMK if you know of #work leads
only lasted 1 hour, then some distorted head threw over a concept of a whole building confirmed sveral times before and got it painted white at 8 o clock in the morning :):) (painted it at noght due to the workerd). reason "this depicts a snake pit, this is the executive floor, you made this on purpose" ... ok, get it, your head reflects who you are in my paonting...concept overthrown, finished left 2 floors in 2 more days, got cash, and anyhow the building went to the ground few years later...
so here you go... the "snake pit" organism (at least I took a shot :)
Die #Schweiz hat 39% Zölle für Exporte in die #usa und #Liechtenstein hat nur 15% Zölle. Einfache Lösung: Die Schweiz lässt sich von Liechtenstein annektieren. Problem gelöst #svp#fdp#cvp#glp. Gern geschehen.
"Trump can pardon as many criminals as he wants, and can continue to threaten judges and sue and pressure the press, but the history of authoritarianism shows that justice eventually comes for the criminal-in-chief.
Successfully managed to get #TDE compiled for my #RaspberryPi 4 running #SlackwareAArch64. It's actually decently fast on the hardware, especially compared to regular KDE Plasma.
What worries me more than China or even Russia launching satellites is that "Dozens of satellites are being launched each week, primarily by SpaceX to continue deploying the Starlink broadband network."
A private company taking over space with apparently no control and no accountability from anyone seems way more dangerous to me. We're in full "James Bond Villain" territory here.
Does your Wordpress site use GiveWP for donations? Upgrade now.
Here's the vuln that exposed Pi-Hole donor names and email addresses 2 days ago:
"...for several sites that are running this plugin [GiveWP], the account information of the donors are exposed directly in the source code of the site."
#Whatsapp vielä käytössä koska sitä joutuu käyttämään useammassa yhteydessä. Mut estin kaiken mahdollisen, ei ilmoituksia, ei pääsyä kuviin tai kontakteihin, ei netin taustakäyttöä. Kerran päivässä pitänee kuitenkin tarkistaa viestit. Mietin että pitäiskö piruuttaan ruveta harrastustoimintojen vetäjäksi niin ite vaan valitsis työkalut. Tyyliin ”jatkossa me käytetään pikaviestin.fi ja sähköpostia viestimiseen” #meta
I recently learned about #IPDB; a distributed database used by #ATProto. I wonder if you could build an #ActivityPub implementation that uses #IPFS for content distribution, and IPDB for distributing the activity data.
"Nella nostra bandiera svizzera riconosciamo, nel segno della croce, la vittoria dell'amore sulla morte e sull'odio! Una croce bianca luminosa che illumina lo sfondo rosso sangue: non è forse l'effetto dolce e potente di un risorto amorevole? Sotto una tale bandiera, sotto un tale segno, non si può più odiare il nemico, si può solo prendersi cura di tutti e vivere"
#WWE SummerSlam (#SummerSlam) 2025 Kickoff Fan Event streams live at 5pm ET/2pm PT/9pm UTC on #PeacockTV in the U.S. & #Netflix everywhere else and all digital platforms, including #Twitch!
FediDB currently tracks about 76 unique platforms within the #Fediverse, but there are lots of other projects in various stages of development that aren’t necessarily accounted for. #FediCon
Yes, I think an interesting follow-up #poll might be to ask people's expectation on whether they think a fediverse that reaches billions is capable of holding corporate capture and #BigTech at bay, and not become just a better instrument than existed before to the further spread and enforcement of #technofeudalism ideology.
And I then usually follow to be that one annoying guy that taps the sign and dims the giddy atmosphere .. 😅
For a while I've contemplated hosting a #Peertube instance. With my dog passing away recently I wanted somewhere to put videos of her that wasn't encumbered with ads.
Bit the bullet and set up and instance with #elestio which went surprisingly easily.
I feel like I am in crazy town today. Why is the button executed for every person in that array and not just for the tapped one? When not using a LazyVGrid or regular Grid it works fine. #SwiftUI
"We don't discuss the law, we comply with the law," said #Bradesco CEO Marcelo Noronha at a press conference.
According to Noronha, Bradesco's legal team is actively working to understand the impact of the #Magnitsky Act and awaits the receipt of the two remaining opinions to assess whether its application is appropriate.
Private ChatGPT conversations show up on Google, leaving internet users shocked
From private chats to full legal identities revealed – internet users are finding ChatGPT conversations that inadvertently ended up on a simple Google search.
Как я собрал телеграм-бота через RAG-подход и сэкономил полжизни на переписках
Устал объяснять всем одно и тоже: как настроить, где найти, что выбрать. Психанул и собрал личного чат-бота в Telegram, который понимает контекст с опечатками, отвечает быстро и без пассивной агрессии (как я). Бонусом добавил шифрование логов, whitelist для доступа, историю чатов для персонализации и RAG с автообновлением базы знаний через Git. В статье — пошаговая инструкция, как запустить ИИ-бота на базе Gemma 3, подключить Ollama и Telegram.
How do I test #Filament widgets? I have not found a way to properly test what they are returning; the getStats() method is protected by default and trying to render them leads to error messages. 🤔
Enjoy the latest NWN EE Doom of Icewind dale video. Later on after Saturday's preview I will release another Robocop Rogue City Unfinished Business YouTube short.
Наше общение нам больше не принадлежит. Размышляю как ИИ создаст альтернативу для Telegram без VPN и прослушки
Интернет-свободы сжимаются как шагреневая кожа. То, что еще недавно было естественным правом - свободно общаться, - превращается в привилегию. А мессенджеры? Они давно перестали быть мессенджерами. Это социальные сети, замаскированные под простое общение. Сижу, листаю новости, читаю очередное "заблокировали", "ограничили", "запретили". И думаю: блин, а только меня это раздражает? Сегодня размышляю об искусственном интеллекте и вдруг понимаю: технологии уже готовы.
Here is the latest Neverwinter Nights Enhanced Edition Doom of Icewind Dale video. It is time to explore the Dragon's Dip zone and do some module exclusive crafting:
> … Just days after its public launch on July 28 — which attracted over 500,000 subscribers — users discovered that the platform was not a unique site developed from scratch, but rather, a Mastodon server.
Well, #facebook knows I'm defecting. Did my morning Norwegian lesson on DuoLingo and got a bunch of ads. But, I let people know, and only one person actually texted me. A friend from high school, and we weren't overly tight friends. But he supports my, transition, I guess. I just don't have time for the divisive negativity. I get a lot of support on the #fediverse and more engaging conversation.
Die #Bundespolizei soll neue Befugnisse bekommen, darunter staatliches Hacken, Daten-Abfragen und Drohnen-Einsätze. Das geht aus einem Gesetzentwurf des Innenministeriums hervor, den #Netzpolitik veröffentlicht. Andere Befugnisse werden deutlich ausgeweitet, wie die automatische Übermittlung von Fluggastdaten ……
Vi starter denne artikelserie ud med Fedivers-serveropsætning på “easy-mode”. En af de mest udbredte webapps på Internettet er Wordpress, et såkaldt Content Management System, som stort set alle webhoteludbydere i Danmark tilbyder på et standard PHP/MySQL-webhotel. Wordpress gør dig i stand til at oprette/ændre indhold på din hjemmeside, og skal du have skabt noget interesse om […]
A new game I've started playing on #Instagram recently has been trying to guess how long after being followed by someone new it is before they try to either offer to book #travel for me or ask me if I want to become a travel agent in my spare time. I swear that about 50% of British mums must now be booking travel from home and want to encourage me to join them. It might not be a pyramid scheme but I am concerned that it may be a cult.
In the world of finance, timing is everything. Being right isn't just about having the correct analysis, it's about acting on it before everyone else does. Waiting for consensus can mean missing out on opportunities. The markets reward those who are decisive and quick. #finance#business#stockmarket#mastodon

I've spent a lot of energy looking for ethical software & web services, but where I am really lacking is the most critical part: finding ethical *payment* solutions for my own biz. The vast majority of my clients use #PayPal or Venmo (both owned by the same arguably evil folks), or by Visa/MC processed by Squareup. The initial promise of #crypto for easy payments seems to have gotten lost to just speculation. What are some #ethicalalternatives that people are actually likely to use? #banking
