  Hey #Monsterdon What do people generally setup to watch and toot at the same time? I could split this browser screen maybe. Also where's the links to watch again?

  I wonder who operates the closest Cannabis retail operation to Steinbach? Is there a shop right at the RM/Town border? Do they need hired security? Who provides it? Mostly, the old black market dealers must be laughing their fucking arses off.

  So I'm never going to ask the Fedi for money directly, but we are right out at the edge of our asses and it might soon be time to sell the house, which will only make the problems much worse. So here's a little #GetFediHired toot cause I ain't done that in a while, and I absolutely am available at rates that normal people can afford for small jobs - if I can hustle up 20 more hours/wk of work at my schoolbus wage, we will probably stay afloat until I find a real job again. Mainly, I...

  So I dunno exactly how #FediBlock works but @adengolbpd@friendica.world doesn't look to me like it's made of meat. An instance that would allow that to happen is also probably a problem, but that's all I gotta say about that.

  Is anyone interested in a livestream of a fresh #FreeBSD install with ZFS boot environment? Cause I'm about to do that, and I have an HDMI capture thingy. Youtube seems to be fine with me going live now, the last time I tried it they said I was not allowed to just do it, I don't remember why, but now I can it seems. In theory we've got 25G fibre but I have no idea how true that is. It's definitely fibre at least. I'm trying to get a better handle on #OBS, particularly, ho...

  Sorry if the preceding edit of yesterday's Pearl post ruined your Caturday. Laurie just reminded me as well that we lost Spike, our chihuahua, on Sept. 20th. Fuck September, man.

  There were bands back then who got shit right.

  I am still an OpenSCAD guy, strictly because I've grown so comfortable with its simplicity, but it's been very gratifying to watch @freecad@social.freecad.org grow into a mature and robust app over the last few years. I have a pet theory that 3D apps of all kinds will be the first of the corporate apps to just rot out on the vine because every User and most studios stop using them. I think this is the case, because it is exceedingly difficult to fake your way through 3D, whether you&...

  So hey #LinuxMusicians #LinuxAudio The amount of choices for synths these days is overwhelming. I am an old man who is not that interested in many of the new sounds (other than Synthwave and Vaporwave, which pander to my personal nostalgias), but I do want to know, what is the best MiniMoog type monosynth sound available among the Free Software options out there? There seems to be nothing that is way out in front of the pack, that I'm aware of, for that specific sound. I'm thinking...

  Someone expressing their ongoing shock that Roe was killed. I remember when I read in the aughts that GOP parties basically controlled all the state politics to speak of, I don't pay close enough attention to have just known that, but I was kind of a USA Politics junkie at the time. Our own politics were chronically boring and not that upheaved, even under Harper. But it radically reshaped my perception of the USA, seeing how incredibly engaged the Christian Right was in running candidat...

  I have until someone said the name on a podcast earlier this week believed that Forgejo was spelled "Forgego" and was a Golang project, people do love putting 'go' in the name of Go projects. Just telling on my gringo self.

  I am interested enough in what "Associate Member" means that I will read whatever legally binding documents are written and signed by and about us in the #EU. I almost certainly will fail to understand them, but I'm gonna read the motherfuckers.

  My hobby: deciding to do a deep dive on grep instead of an extra ten seconds of pageup/pagedown in order to distract myself from the three major-but-doable-but-never-actually-done-em-before tasks I have assigned myself today. My other hobby: loading up Mastodon to toot about my struggles with focus, after catching myself after only wasting about a minute on the grep deep dive, but here's what I was trying to do: The thing I am grepping for has a number of hits, each of them with a varying...

  So where is the DIY quadcopter #drone community hanging out? I assume in Kyiv, but where else? I ain't gonna afford an off the shelf one for a long but I'm pretty sure between parts at hand and my 3D printer I could mess around...

  Hey #Animation I just spotted a headline about "Tokenjacking," in which "bad" actors are stealing people's AI tokens. As we all know, AI compute capacity is also useful for making cartoons to delight children. I think it's incumbent upon anyone who knows how to use #Blender that we form an organization dedicated to stealing people's AI tokens and repurposing them for making Cartoons, in which we also steal Intellectual Property like all the Disney characters....

  Spent five bucks at the thrift last week for a bag of "#drone parts". I spotted a couple of antennas and some tiny motors, so snapped it up. Having just organized the parts, it appears to be most of the components of a single lightweight #quadcopter kit, but there is no manual and the SKUs on the bags don't connect to anything meaningful on Google. Seems to me, if I could find the paperwork of the kit, I could probably get this thing assembled. Do these pieces look familiar to...

  It is becoming difficult and counterproductive, when I am seeking answers about Unix and its offshoots, to not simply read google's AI answer. Especially FreeBSD. It puts the command you need right there where you cannot ignore it, and at that point, it is ridiculous to not just try the command, as long as it's not piping curl to the shell or any such nastiness. It has not been wrong yet, and I have tentatively thrown some detailed Sysadmin tasks at it that would have taken me all day...

  "Prevent cognitive debt by retyping LLM-generated code by hand" (I just installed gorss on my #FreeBSD server, and naturally Hacker News is a default subscription, and that is the title of a post there in the default feed when I launched it) You know, that would probably work just fine, to deal with cognitive debt. It also makes you into a 1980s 8-bit magazine kid, typing in a program off a printed page to get a chintzy Asteroids game... but that's actually a perfectly fine thing...
