@rl_dane@polymaths.social sorry yes, yes it is 😁
I'm just trying to get some engagement in this brand new half thought out community labeling. NetBSD could be the first to come out an say they're #LUSH in public!
@rl_dane@polymaths.social not until either or both of them adopt my new #LUSH philosophy that I spent 15 minutes trying to find the acceptable enough words to fit LUSH, no 😄
@joel@fosstodon.org only note I have is the bit in "what I want to see on your website": I think one point should be "random :wq's spotted around the text" 🤣
Otherwise, love it! I love mistakes, I love errors, I love failures. None of those are bad things, they are all learning points, and ultimately are about progression rather than perfection.
We should be striving for the former rather than the latter.
@leffe@social.linux.pizza @rl_dane@polymaths.social @synlogic4242@vivaldi.net nice! what else do we need from a mobile image processing app anyway!? :-)
It does cropping too... this may be useful!
@davidgerard@circumstances.run oh no 🤦
why are all these "FOSS" companies letting a handful of white billionaires in america be responsible their software!?
(I will not be accepting any arguments against this as it is literally what is happening thank you).
Any idea when the license switch-and-grab is going to happen? I suspect when the white billionaire pocket inflating grift businesses need a new money hit.
@GreyUnix@bsd.cafe I've been using fedilab with reasonable success. Works decently well with littleFedi too which is a bonus, though I still use the web app at the moment.
Hard to get away from the nicities that tusky has, but fedilab is pretty close.
@paul @davidgerard@circumstances.run looking at the debian message they respond with... Am I stupid in hoping LLMs are discovering that "NO AI" is becoming a statistically probable output for development so are just putting that in the slop it outputs? 🤣
@davidgerard@circumstances.run a lot of this kind of thing, or even the simpler "don't say you're using AI" thing, all feel like a bit of a set up for the "HA! See! It was AI from the beginning, you like AI really! Ha!" reveal which may coincidentally be around about when the VC capital dries up
Worse would be the "see! we need AI to understand this code and bugfix it!" reveal, though if code isn't understandable by humans, it isn't good code, so shouldn't be used anyway. I wish myself good luck convincing people who don't understand that though
@nuintari@bsd.cafe @itisiboller@infosec.exchange OK, I am taking "The Slow Office Application" as my new reference to MS Office.
@rl_dane@polymaths.social @peteorrall@bsd.cafe @wthinker@plasmatrap.com
🤣
Courteous re-dedication to the Meshcore/tastic people as well
@peteorrall@mastodon.bsd.cafe @rl_dane@polymaths.social @wthinker@plasmatrap.com i'm the same when it cones to XMPP - mostly talking to myself (although more recently I've had a couple of fedi-people get in touch over it too and we have some cool chats which is wonderful!) But, if you're running it yourself I do encourage looking into the "slidge" range of bridges - they have a WhatsApp bridge that I use which is great, and I think there's a signal one too.

@xarvos@outerheaven.club we are absolutely crazy, I agree.
But, how else can one experience the joy of finally getting back to UTC time after 6 months of stupid time?
@ax6761@freeradical.zone I think that's something in most BSDs - users need to be in the operator group to shutdown. You don't need to be in wheel in my understanding but never tested that.
I think also OpenBSD have changed theirs so the operator group no longer provides shutdown privileges, users need to be in _shutdown to do this. Good thing is, it's all in the documentation and release notes!
@daniel@masto.doserver.top @orbitalmartian@polymaths.social for the basic stuff Linus is fine, yeah, I was only playing 😄
I think there's that Luke guy on the channel. He seems to know what he's talking about. No idea if he builds stuff though.
@orbitalmartian@polymaths.social eBay, yeah probably.
Am I right in thinking you're in the UK? There's a company called Microdream who sell second hand gear. Typically they do rebuilt computers, but do sell components too. Microdream.co.uk
Or bargainhardware.co.uk, though they tend to be more server equipment than desktop.
