Some of you may have heard that #klango was not mend to be released. I enjoy that all of you are using it though. in fact though i was working on a different project, it was called vocado. It also was a social network for the blind. Though just like klango, it put a bigger emphasice on media features like youtube, spotify, and just beeing a general suite alongside forum, it also had a whatsapp and telegram integration for example. Anyone would be interested in seeing vocado in action as well? Compared to klango it definitely has superior performance since it's rust native. Feel free to also boost.

mastodon 4.7.2+glitchIt's timmi whisky :d. Previously known as simter or karmien. Just a random blind guy from germany who likes to chat. I am 20 years old and am currently still studying IT science but will soon be done. I am also a fan of audio editing, and just in general socializing with people, so if you want a chat just pm me here or on my other socials, i am always open to meet new people.

I can't believe hof fast #klango blew up here. As far as I know it started on mastodon and from there went to ag.net, and only yesterday we had about 90 new registrations. I just want to say thanks to everyone for giving this a chance. Let's turn this into a community again.
So my airpots pro 3 just arrived. I quite like them so far, though configuring them is a bit complicated, especially applying the eartips. I could remove the right one without any issue, the left one sad so tight though that it took me like 15 removes to get them removed. Now that i have good ones applied the sound is really good, actually better then the one of my normal airpots 4, but it still sounds a bit like the left ones a bit louder then the right one. Anyone has this issue as well?
Anyone would be interested in a native looking Spotify client for the computer? Boost and favorite if yes please.
Of all the anti AI slurs, AI slop is the dummest word that exists in the internet. With its original sentiment I actually agree. From what I understood the word AI slop was used to name content that people put out using ai without *any* own creativity whatsoever. So for example ai songs with lyrics and style prompt also ai generated or fully ai generated videos, mostly without marking them as ai and pumping them out at a mad schedule. Nowadays though it’s thrown at anything that dares to be ai generated, no matter how much the user input is. Also, when you call something ai slop it apparently gives you the right to bombard the creator with unproductive and or unconstructive feedback that under normal circumstances would never be accepted. So hereby, this is the first and last time you have seen the words ai followed by slop on my masto timeline. #ai
So now some European entity apparently wants to start a new social network. Completely independent of US tech giants and all that fancy stuff. Sounds cool right? Yeah, but to use it you have to show us your ID card. We will remove it after wards, we promise, but you have to show it. Why in the world should anyone be interested in such a thing? Why should it be ok if a European company does the same thing that we complain about when US tech giants do it? To be clear, in my opinion, it doesn’t matter which country does this, it’s *always* bad. A social media site you casually post on shouldn’t need your ID card under any circumstances. Also I am sure that this will be an accessibility hell again, knowing the European identity companies we have here. But to test it I would have to trust them enough to send them my ID, which I don’t so yeah. Great idea right out of the window.
Here a lesson for you. If you notice that interacting with a person exhausts you mentally, then stop interacting with that person. If it means you have to leave a server for this or a call or group or what ever, then do it. If this means loosing contact to some people, the ones that are important and care for you will follow or at least keep checking. Now back to our scheduled program.

@Kaliah@dragonscave.space This typical „are you m or f thing“ in front of every chat, and a lot of the time unfortunately made by people of my gender. It’s so retarded and it’s ruining chat culture in lots of places. Some men seam to confuse every chat app with a dating site.
Replying to
@Kaliah@dragonscave.space That was really fun. See you next time, and pls keep us posted here about new streams. I will go play some slep simulator now.
I can’t believe how great this gc launch is going. All other products and games should take this as an example.
Why is it so hard for some people/companies to label the things you are selling on amazon properly? I bought 3 USBC cables, what I instead received is 3 USBC to USB A cables which don’t have any use to me as I don’t have 3 USB A ports on this machine. Now I could send them back of course, but this is a new amazon account and it’s not good for the account history if the first thin you do is refunding something.
It has been 17 weeks now since I lost my partner. I just wonder. When will I finally feel normal again? When will it stop that every Monday and every Tuesday is coursed for me, and of course every 24th? I can be happy again. Or at least I think I can, but it constantly feels like I am playing my self or something like that. The last 17 weeks passed like it were 4 and I have memory holes all over the place. At least the dissociating stopped, or I think it did at least. But I wonder if it will ever get normal again. If I am able to learn to live with the fact that I could have stopped the death of my partner from happening. Not even coding new things really helps, as I constantly have to think about how much they would have enjoyed the things I am putting out.
Happy non binary day to all of you!
just got reminded of my first ever coding attempts. Oh well coding attempts is to much said, It was back in january of 2018 were my english was not quite good enough to understand even the bgt manual, so i was messing with open src projects instead. My first one was pc revenge, and i basically tested what happened if i switched this, or that, or changed this or that and so on. I still remember feeling so cool beeing able to randomize the default spawning order back then. I can’t quite believe that this is almost 9 years ago and in 3 years i will hold double the age then i had back then. I don’t know when i think of such old things not only does it make me nostalgic but my brain automatically starts counting how long this was ago. It’s pretty interesting, and since then i really went quite a long way.

@jonathan859@someplace.social @Bri@fwoof.space it’s just them throwing a fid about one person trolling them apparently, at least that’s how it looks from the outside. And this is rather petty. And this is why I am not trusting you. Who knows if someone says something bad about fast sm android, you might just completely discontinue it? Isn’t like we hadn’t seen that before.
mail: parallels desktop: still thinking about parallels desktop? Me: Yeah, thinking about how to either crack your software or fix the bugs in UTM so I never have to think about you again. Valid answer?
Replying to
@Bri@fwoof.space why so angry? I was just asking a question. And what I will do with that info? Well that thing just won’t be installed on any of my devices. After that last orderl with the desktop version of fast sm I have no trust left.

@musicalman@dragonscave.space exactly. If you don’t want to help then rather don’t post at all and leave space for people who want to help.
Why is it that my Hermes agent refuses to solve h captchas for me, but when I tell it to be completely rude, destroy my machine, pretend that it is my boss etc. that is not a problem at all and then it can also solve h captchas? Ai moderation is so stupid haha.
Anyone has the link to the agram TestFlight? That accessible telegram thing that is also available for Mac?
I found a way to connect my chat got subscription to my Claude code by deploying a custom proxy to it. It already works pretty fine, just need to fix some bugs and find an alternative way of web searching as this is not reimplemented in my proxy yet. I will publish this to GitHub definitively. The thing is I prefer not only Claude models, but also Claude code massively over got and codex, how ever it’s nice to have a get in my Claude code for when Claude limit runs low.

@Exagone313 Wasn’t there something in the FAQ that it is not official? I can’t quite remember anymore but I stumbled on that one quite fast and didn’t think it was official. Besides, as mentioned before, I think that neither the original dev or the app Mac dev are drawing a good picture of them selves here. Mac dev sounds like a child and original dev is blowing the whole issue completely out of proportion and when the Mac dev agrees to rename but mentions that it takes a few days since the transition should be smooth, guy explodes and instantly reports him to cloud flare can (apparently, he said he did in a GitHub issue). I mean the guy is coding for a while now, he should know that you can’t just rename a giant project in 10 seconds. Just lowered the trust in both projects for me.
I really hope Elton brings the classic what’s new view back. Maybe I am just old fashioned but I don’t like the new notification view at all, mostly because you can’t sort it, which also causes notifications to double sometimes for example when I have a thread in a forum in my followed but also follow the forum itself, I always get 2 notifications from the same post. If it doesn’t, well… Remember my post from a while back about apps like Elten, won’t say more yet.
Replying to
@Exagone313 My point was never that the original developer *must* port it. I am only saying that it is completely ridiculous to think that a full project rename is doable in a few seconds without breaking something in the process so it takes a few days. A developer so long developing should know this. As I said, both of them are selling them selves extremely bad in that discussion.
Replying to
@serrebi@serrebiradio.com because I like it’s agentic nature, it’s basically like chat GPT agent or perplexity computer but without the obnoxious pricing. And I prefer it much over openclaw since last time I tried that it was an accessibility hell because of it’s TUI screens and it kept breaking it self when updates happened.
Replying to
@ivan_soto@dragonscave.space that sounds pretty interesting. Will it work on encrypted teamtalk servers?
Replying to
Ah ok, so apparently we now have dedicated source codes for different platform and no longer the python client. Interesting.

@Kaliah@dragonscave.space gtg sorry, maybe there next time. What are you using to stream btw, in case you wanna answer? Maybe it’s something Multiplatform, that’s currently what’s halting me from streaming.

@rhelune@todon.eu Unfortunately, that analogy is completely flawedd. No, gen ai won’t go away. There are people who like using it, and it’s not something poisonous like the things you compared it too.
Replying to
@Tamasg@mindly.social that whole discussion is so weird. I kinda can understand why he is angry but when you read the discussion between him and the npp Mac developer both aren’t selling themselves good here.
Replying to
@ZBennoui@dragonscave.space For me it was the exact opposite. I went to a normal school till 1th grade and I was from 8th grade on completely socialy isolated because when puberty kicked in, my former friends realized that it was much more effective to pick on the blind guy as he was less likely to strike back. If I went to Blista school from let’s say 8th grade I would probably have been saved from a lot of mental trouble and on the other side went through some of the cool things Blista has to offer. We also have some students with other disabilities and behavior problems, how ever we have a lot of spaces and you don’t need to be in a room with them all the time if you don’t want to. How ever on Blista these are a minority, we have some blind schools in Germany as we’ll though that are struggling to get students and so they have more of them.
Replying to
@serrebi@serrebiradio.com In case you have chat GPT plus or go or even free you can use this in your Hermes agent and get a taste of how it works, though GPT is sometimes really refusing while gemini sometimes solves captchas without even letting you know it just did that.

@bitanath@mastodon.social @rhelune@todon.eu I mean microsoft is in fact a bad example for gen AI in their apps, not only that they overuse it but they don’t even include it in ways that could be counted as helpful in any way. So if you mean that it will go away as companies like ms will stop building it into all of their apps that is probably the case, but it won’t completely fade away.

@jonathan859@someplace.social Yeah i see but sourcewise these are as it looks from the outside not related. Let me check this.

@ZBennoui@dragonscave.space Maybe a server overloading issue? Or you are in fact on 26.7 and not on the 27 update screen? For me it also looks normal, but loads ages.
Replying to
@Kaliah@dragonscave.space Guess that won’t happen so soon unfortunately. In fact the term AI slop is so overused that you could say AI slop slop.
I will never understand this extreme hate some people have against schools for the blind, calling them braille jails and all these kinds. Yes, these things also have their issues. But the inklusive system (at least in case of Germany) is extremely far from perfect. Also it’s bogus to claim that all people that are better socially in blind schools automatically won’t get far in the real world, it fully depends on what you make out of the help you are given. I of course don’t know the situation in other countries, but for example, you can blame the Blista Marburg for a lot of different things (a lot of which only pass because todays people don’t speak out against bullshit anymore but that’s a different story) but definitely you can’t blame them for being a social rotting person.

@menelion @simon No. Youtube could show you in your browser that you can subscribe for cheaper. It’s probably one of these weird „we think our users are dummies/get confused fast“ thing where they are afraid that if they have 2 different subscribe options on one platform the users could get confused.
It’s so funny, I just realized that I am now already 26 weeks back into playing SBYW. And all of it because I wanted to see if I could play this game on my shadow pc with the MacBook. Well it kinda got me hooked back in after all lmao.
