Oh, I need this thread. I’ve been all over the place ever since Mint shut down.
Hey, thanks for reading my bio. You know, you’re pretty cool. I’m glad we got to share this moment together.

I’ve been trying to find a more privacy-friendy alternative to Discord but I keep coming back to the issue of screen sharing. No other platform does it as smoothly.
The best I’ve found is using Parsec with some virtual audio cables to avoid voice feedback.
I went to a conference this weekend, and it slowly dawned on me how every single one of the vendors was selling their app hosted on AWS. That’s all it is. Just different flavors of AWS.
Even if you dont interact with AWS directly, every business needs business services - you can bet that no matter what you’re buying or who you’re buying it from, some of your money is going directly to AWS marketplace.
Sounds like another reason to standardize easily replaceable batteries.
If you can’t trust a battery in a device, you should be able to replace it with a trusted one.
This feels like its establishing a precedent for widespread adoption/implementation of AI into consumer devices. Manufactured consent.
“We compute one pixel… we hallucinate, if you will, the other 32.”
Between this and things like Sora, we are doomed to drown in illusions of our own creation.
All I know is that I’ve never connected my TV to the internet and never gotten ads on it
Not saying more sinister things aren’t possible, but for my TV to connect to some kind of mesh net, it would probably need a firmware update, which its not going to get, because again, its not connected to the internet.
Iirc that’s specifically for amazon devices, this was regarding Samsung TVs
Don’t connect it to the internet
If this works, could you theoretically cover crop fields in solar panels as well? That’s a ton of usable space
Man I fucking love this community sometimes. This is like the 5th fantastic self hostable open source software I’ve seen since joining lemmy, and every time, it gives me that feeling of discovering the internet all over again.
This is just the game “Hypnospace Outlaw”
I need to try this, it looks great!
Knew some of this but did not know how far it went. Great write up.
God, these phones look cool.
The price to performance ratio is awful, but man, I love how these phones look.
I’ve gotten nearly my entire circle on Signal and it’s incredibly satisfying. No more worrying about seeing ads based on my text conversations.
Possible solution to the Von Neumann bottleneck? Or does this address a different issue
I’ve been getting very close to ditching YouTube. This change showed up a few weeks ago for me and pushed me a bit further.
If they succeed in inserting ads into the video stream I’ll bail alltogether. I can fit a subscription to Brilliant, Dropout, and several creator Patreons into the cost of a YouTube Red subscription, and I won’t have to deal with these attention-optimizing UI changes.
Yeah, this is a big part of why I stopped using discord recently. Not yet sure of any alternatives but leaving is step one.
