Neofetch Is Officially Abandoned... What Now? #Linux #YouTube youtu.be/SnZ7OXTBG7I


Hilarious!

Laying off an entire team because their manager wouldn't lay of a large chunk of the team to cut costs is the sort of penny wise, pound foolish portrayal of tech you'd expect from HBO's Silicon Valley not a company that the market calls one of the "Magnificent Seven".


Very happy to announce that @tomcoates and I have been given a #SummerOfProtocols grant to develop an end-to-end encryption (E2EE) protocol for #ActivityPub DMs, including a reference implementation and a report to submit to the W3C SocialCG.

Yeah starting to think that the "DDoS issue" is less of a problem with Mastodon itself and more of a problem with the sites themselves

Why AI is Doomed to Fail the Musical Turing Test

This was a good video.

I certainly hope to see more creativity and ingenuity from our collective output. But I'm not sure if the "whatever" approach to all that isn't enticing enough to overshadow our best work. Spotify is a great example for that:

I love music. I used to compose and perform it religiously, but today (now that my priorities have shifted), I find myself hitting the "DJ" button more and more.

I find it hard to stay optimistic on this topic, unfortunately.

in reply to Eugen Rochko

I suspect people are just responding to social cues when they judge whether music (or anything else for that matter) is good or bad.


We launched Hub 8! 🎉

Let Nextcloud assist you in regaining control of your time with our brand new time-saving features.

⏳ Learn more in our release announcement!

For next hub, could we reconnect with humans instead of AI? Social app (increase bond to fediverse), connect Talk to matrix network, conditional form... to help human exchange ideas and organise them. These would be new features!
Nextcloud hub is really cool but could open up a little to become even more attractive.
AI working for humans isn't a new thing, computers have been invented to compute algorithm on our behalf.

When will Nextcloud's release announcements #RegainControl of where their videos are hosted?

So far you've chosen to keep them silo'd off on a #proprietary, #centralized, non #privacy friendly #surveillance platform, ie #Google's #YouTube.

Is this what #Nextcloud / #NextcloudHub stands for?

So far, the repeated silence on this subject has spoken louder than any release announcement.

Happy birthday to #neurologist Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1852 - 1934), here in front of Purkinje and granule cells from a pigeon, based on one of his own drawings! Cajal &Golgi won the Nobel in 1906, "in recognition of their work on the structure of the nervous system". He was as much of an artist as he was a scientist & his 100s of drawings are still used for teaching purposes.⁠

TIL, that none of the Manjaro users that reported the VDPAU VAAPI driver issue to OBS Studio reported to Manjaro directly.

This issue exist on Arch Linux and Manjaro since OBS Studio 29 got released on their repos.

I've noticed that when sharing links to my own website, but I thought this was more of a me-problem with the sites performance.

Will be interesting to see how that'll pan out with the new site I'm currently building… :thaenkin:



Strum Machine

I mostly play old time and bluegrass music. Particularly in old time and fiddle songs, the songs have a fairly rigid and repetitious structure. That's not to say players don't do interesting things with it, but unless a song is intentionally crooked, the structure of the song remains the same throughout. A typical structure is AABB. That is, play the "A part" twice, play the "B part" twice, and repeat.

Seeing how COSMIC can look with a bit of visual tweaking gives me a lot more hope, whilst I like the core functionality that had previously been shown, the styling wasn't too my liking but I'm really impressed with what I've seen here youtube.com/watch?v=JHLfsWhDvz…

Just getting home from Spirited Away & the film remains as magical as ever.

Who else is going to Ghibli Fest at their local theater? gkids.com/ghiblifest/?gad_sour… #anime #art

in reply to Sheril Kirshenbaum

Not going, but I started watching this, loved it, but had to turn it off because there was a lot going on, and finally forgot about it. So this is a great reminder, as well as one to finally watch Kiki's Delivery Service ❤
in reply to Sheril Kirshenbaum

Spirited Away every time it’s back in theaters, which started before any Ghiblifest, and every Ghiblifest movie I could make, every year since they started having them!

It is quite the era, having so much anime in actual theater runs. Digital distribution has done wonders for foreign films of all sorts, but especially anime.

Nausicaä next, we go!

GNOME Foundation Funding Situation Is... #Linux #YouTube youtu.be/lST3CGIXqUs
in reply to Brodie Robertson

Following things might be absolut BS, so be prepared: If the legal status of an US foundation is comparable to a german "eigetragener Verein" (what KDE 'e.V.' is), they have to spend the money relatively quickly to drop back to a certain amount of operational costs.
This makes it relatively hard to plan if you have some years with huge income followed by years with smaller, but you cant slow down spending the money because of your legal form.
