This is why I hate modern software. I upgraded ElevenLabs Reader, because I wanted to see if it improved. The changelog just said "Stability improvements" or something similar for each version. I launched it, they said multiple languages were on the way. The next screen said we're syncing everything to the cloud so you can read on all your devices. No ability to opt out, it was done before I could finish reading. As a bonus, it seems less accessible than it was before.

@pvagner Oh I get you man. Cloud doesn’t bother me much, but Electron does. Does it fall into the category of modern abominations?


Na začiatku apríla si pri našom dome drozd vytvoril hniezdo a mal tri mláďatá. V priebehu týždňa zahniezdil ďalší a mal až šesť mláďat. Hniezdo neostalo dlho prázdne, keďže opäť v priebehu týždňa zahniezdil už tretí drozd - tentokrát s dvoma vajíčkami.

Yay! Got the imx363 rear camera working in my Poco F1 (SDM845) running a near mainline kernel! 🎉 Here is a quick demo of Megapixels and Snapshot camera apps running at 1080p resolution. Full resolution of 4032 x 3024 is kind of buggy with only 2016 x 3024 pixels stretched into 4032 x 3024. Needs some work before wider use by community though. An important milestone for SDM845 devices nevertheless! 😇

Got the colors working! And Megapixels works in full res (4032x3024) mode too! Issues to fix:
- Megapixel preview has some weird lines. The top right corner looks good though. Saved image is also good.
- Libcamera+Snapshot still doesn't work in full resolution mode. Snapshot works at only a weird resolution of 1080x1240.
- Close up images looks a bit blurred/unfocused. Maybe the actuator needs to be implemented 🤔 or another bug.

With these fixed, it will be ready for prime use i guess🤞😇




Hey all y'all.

If you're wondering what type of presentations have happened we've had air conditioning, bioethics, computer science, history, library science, environmental science, and how spiders are just legs.

Be a part of our 4th year and a very cool tradition

Just published age v1.2.0 ✨

Minor release:

• binaries built with Go 1.22.4
• plugin client API
• CLI edge case fixes
• RecipientWithLabels to make auth'd or post-quantum recipients

Very happy about the last point, it was the last hardcoded thing about scrypt recipients.

Hi, hello!

There's a new cover, after almost six months of silence.

Thanks to the ever-amazing @bermudianbrit for helping me mix this and for putting up with my pestering.

Please let me know what you think, any suggestions are also always appreciated.

Hi nerds! We've just released #GoToSocial version 0.16.0 Snappy Sloth into the wild. Look at it go! Climbing trees and all sorts, covered in algae, and #pooping once a week.

github.com/superseriousbusines…

Thanks to everyone who helped us comb the bugs out of its fur during the release candidate process. We hope the protein you gained from eating the bugs was reward enough.

As usual, when updating to this version (which you really should, because it's quite good), please read the release notes carefully, particularly the database migration notes; and make sure you don't interrupt the database migrations.

Ta!


Highlights of this release (nothing new since 0.16.0-rc1, just reiterating):

  • Sign up / registration: In this release, you can open your instance to new registrations (aka sign-ups) via the new signup page at https://[your-instance.tld]/signup. No more manually creating new users via the CLI :)
    Documentation here: docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/…
  • Accounts overview for moderators: To support the new sign-up feature, and help instance admins to moderate, we made a new section in the settings panel where admins + moderators can get an overview of accounts, and filter by instance, status, and more. You'll find this new accounts view in the settings panel.
  • Totally reworked message delivery system and worker queues: We've completely reworked the way GoToSocial sends out messages to your followers and performs worker-related tasks; this should drastically increase the speed that outgoing messages are delivered, especially for users with lots of followers. It also paves the way for future work in terms of persisting worker and message queues over restarts.
  • Account mutes: The account mute API endpoints are now implemented, meaning you can put (timed) mutes of accounts in place, to hide statuses from specific accounts from your home timeline, and/or hide notifications from muted accounts.
  • Accurate account stats: This release introduces code to pull up-to-date counts of statuses, followers, and following from remote instances and show these stats via the API. So now in your client of choice, you should see an accurate count of the number of statuses and followers/following of a given account, no more "0 followers, 0 following, 0 statuses".
  • HTTP header permissions settings: The settings panel now has a section that allows admins to set regular expressions to deny requests depending on HTTP headers.
    Documentation here: docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/…
  • Filters v2 implementation: We've now implemented the v2 API for filters, which means you can create more complex filters to hide keywords or statuses, and more clients should be able to create filters on GoToSocial.
  • Send test email: Admins can now use the settings panel to send a test email, to check if their SMTP (email) configuration is valid.
  • Profile API: Clients that use the profile API to delete avatar + header images should now work, since we've now implemented this part of the API.
  • Search operators: We've added a first search operator to GoToSocial, so when you're searching for statuses, you can add from:@[username]@[domain] to your search term, to search only within statuses created by the given account (while still respecting the search limitations we already had in place).
    Documentation here: docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/…
  • Email change: Users can now change their email address in the settings panel without admin intervention.
    Documentation here: docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/…
  • Memory usage optimizations: GoToSocial now uses memory more conservatively than before; you should only need about 150-200MiB of memory to run GtS with a full cache, and it will spike less.

Meta did this? I’m shocked!

@nacelnik01 Mně ty vedra nevadí, postupně jsem si zvyk. Dřív jsem hodně běhal, tak se asi tělo postupně naučilo, v tom fungovat . Když jsou úplný pařáky, tak se snažím jet v klidu, žádna honička a hodně pít. Já beru piti na každou jízdu.
in reply to Archos

@nacelnik01 Což o to, lesy a tak by se zde našli, ale ty kopce jsou někdy samy o sobě zabijáci :-) Takže si nejsem jista sama sebou :-D když je přes 30, tak jsem ráda, že jsem 🤤


I don’t know who to credit for this because it’s been stolen so much, but I love it.

just found out grapheneos has a "duress pin" feature that lets you set an alternate pin that will wipe the device if entered. so if you're forced to provide a pin, you can give them that one.

that's actually super cool. if you're a person of interest, going through a dangerous checkpoint, etc, USE THIS

nah theres a better option called CalyxOS, runs on more devices than Graphene and it on the same level as security (locked bootloader, etc)
This entry was edited (5 months ago)
in reply to please donate to me to help me live and end my suffering

please do not compare CalyxOS to be the same level of security as GrapheneOS, this is a lie pedaled by the Calyx Foundation to get people to use their interior custom ROM

CalyxOS has half baked security features, insecure Google Play Services implementation, slow to update core services compared to GrapheneOS, breaks basic android security model, and so many more issues that make CalyxOS a borderline scam

Someone once suggested to me that the walkability of a neighbourhood could be determined based on the number of staples in the hydro poles. I always liked that idea.

Ok so ... focus-mode.net, instead, but it exists now, the domain is mine and there's a super basic CMS up there. Not even remotely ready for uploads yet, but hey ... baby steps KaraLG84@dragonscave.space darrell73@mastodon.online @Piciok @pvagner. TIme for sleep, methinks :P

"People who have been touched by substance abuse admire parents who continue to show love to those close to them suffering from addiction, despite the heavy burdens involved. So it's not surprising that the American people responded with admiration when President Biden responded to the conviction of his son by saying he loves him and will continue to support him."
