In my usecase, everything on Proxmox & all services separate, OMV was too bloated.

A simple Debian container with Cockpit & the 45drives file sharing plugin was enough to setup SMB & some users.

I've realized we don't have a lot of time left to ship orders before Christmas, and the sample of the new "Live laugh federate" pin might take a few more days to arrive at my home for product shots, so I've put it up on the shop with the picture the manufacturer took for me. This is the last new product this year.

Bookface 1.9 for Friendica RC


For server admins running 2025.07-rc there is an update to the Bookface scheme to version 1.9.0

DOWNLOAD IT HERE

For servers running 2024.12 the Bookface Stable repo is at version 1.8.8. I'll do a release when they have enough fixes to hit 1.9 too. But there are a bunch of fixes you may want now (download zip).

RE: fedi.lynnesbian.space/@lynnesb…

holy shit.

so for YEARS i've thought that google maps just spoke in a really stilted voice for everyone.

turns out it was just because both my and pet's midrange phones were too slow. for basic speech synthesis.

i got a new high end phone today and it just speaks fluently. instead of "in two hundred metres. at the roundabout. take the... first... exit." it's just "in two hundred metres, at the roundabout, take the first exit."

gooooOOOOGGLLLLLEEEE!!!

in reply to Lynnesbian

i even made this joke again on the day my new phone arrived

I love listening to @pluralistic speak. That dude makes me feel like I'm barely past the "swinging in the trees" stage of evolution, but it's so much fun. It's great to see him on shows like The Daily Show.
in reply to Eugen Rochko

Now I understand how @pluralistic can write so much---the ideas were pouring out of him almost faster than I could follow. I know he gets a lot of practice, but still, it's amazing to watch.

AI doesn't have to be run only by and for a few enormous companies.

Just out from Metagov! A digital zine listing the MANY ways that people are trying to make AI more governable, accountable, and community-controlled: metagov.org/cg-ai/

in reply to Nathan Schneider

None of the examples is perfect of course. But the more people build self-governed stacks anywhere, the easier it becomes everywhere.

While the Apertus model may not reach an ideal standard, it does far exceed the standards of compliance we see from commercial "labs." That helps spur a race to the top.

in reply to Nathan Schneider

Finally, note that the document does suggest collective deliberation about appropriate uses, implying a call for collectively restricting uses that do not contribute to the common good.

In reality, however, I'm not sure how much traction that proposal will find. People are embracing these things in their lives, and I don't think the genie is headed back into the bottle anytime soon.
