Profoundly Nerdy

RakuAST is dropping in a few day, last I read. I've been looking forward to it for a long time. What's new in other language I find interesting? Zig, Perl, and Forth come to mind. What about some out of the way languages that don't get enough press? #ziglang #perl #forth #rakulang

My Supernote Nomad is an excellent offline e-ink note taking device. I want to have something similar for ebooks that's also privacy respecting. I wish there was a GrapheneOS device that had an eInk display, I'd use that with a FOSS eBook reader and Calibre. I like some of what Boox is putting out, but IDK how private it is. Any suggestions? #askfedi #privacy #boox #supernote #eink #grapheneos #android #ereader #calibre

@hosford42@techhub.social For food: find a local food bank. Volunteer their minimum number of hours. You'll get free groceries out of the deal.

@hexaedre@dice.camp The only reason I know what any of that means, is because I'm a huge fan of Signals from the Core. It's an *excellent* Traveller podcast: https://linktr.ee/signalsfromthecore

@evacide@hachyderm.io Because the problem isn't the technology, it's human nature.

Anyone else here use LLMs as an interactive scratch pad just to bounce ideas off of and get the juices flowing? What about generating maps, charts, and player handouts? What has your experience been like? #ttrpg #ai #llms

@hexaedre@dice.camp That flowchart should be in the book because -- newbie here -- the instructions are confusingly written.

Proton users, what are your thoughts on the Lumo AI? #proton #privacy #ai #lumo #security

@lattera@bsd.network That would be one hell of a combination.

@Misofist@girlcock.club It surprises me there isn't a website devoted to crowd sourcing data on these the way Flock camera placements are tracked. Maybe the project is too new?

@0x520@kolektiva.social What makes you think it's not fully private?

@rubberduck@mastodon.radio What does AI bring to the table for QSO logs?

@cs@mastodon.sdf.org This is STILL a thing with PayPal? I remember getting one of these about a year ago and calling the actual PayPal support line to let them know in thought one of their mail servers had been compromised. They had a master ticket to sanitize the input of the subject line. I have it written down somewhere. Is this a case where TCS knows about the issue but can't do anything yet PayPal knows nothing about the issue because it doesn't actually communicate with the outsourcer? Not that I've ever seen that play out in real life mind you. Not once. Ever. 🙄

@daytonah@mastodon.social I could. The Kindle app is an optional add on. I just prefer to keep the devices separate. One for reading. One for taking notes. No friction when taking handwritten notes while reading.

@tschak@oldbytes.space So you reinvented #Mutt or #alpinemail?

@lizmat@programming.dev This isn't getting enough press!

@linuxgal@techhub.social What, no Godwin's Law?
