Jieshuo Screen Reader’s New So-called Super Effects: What Are They and How to Use Them? accessibleandroid.com/jieshuo-…

No soy el mayor fan de la #IA ni mucho menos (consideraciones éticas aparte creo que hay todavía mucho hype y pocas nueces), pero también pienso que una parte de todo lo que está saliendo en este boom terminará quedándose a la larga. Me interesa sobre todo cacharrear con las capacidades de una instancia privada en local y he terminado montando un proyectillo que me he encontrado por Github para construir un pequeño chatbot para analizar documentos PDF construido sobre #ollama como motor y Mistral como #LLM. Aunque ya le he pillado cierta tendencia al invent es una herramienta curiosa e incluso potencialmente útil. Es relativamente sencillo de montar una vez superas el infierno de dependencias de Python que te exige downgradear algún módulo pero consume recursos que no veas. Un Mac Mini con un M2 sufre ante cada pregunta. Ha sido también útil para entender los recursos que exige una IA generativa con un LLM modesto y, una vez más, sospechar de quien te dé esto gratis como servicio. Si tenéis curiosidad por probarlo vosotros mismos, aquí tenéis el proyecto que me he clonado: github.com/SonicWarrior1/pdfch…

Since announcing the idea of #Matrix 2.0 at #FOSDEM, we've been busy building out full real-world implementations for folks to play with, and today we're super excited to take the wraps off Matrix 2.0: The Future of Matrix. matrix.org/blog/2023/09/matrix… 👀🎉🎊🍾👀

Blazing fast Matrix, Native E2EE Group Calls, state of the art auth and potential WhatsApp interop.

Matthew covers the last year in Matrix and how it can be used to speed up the opening of communications silo required by the EU Digital Markets Act

Oh rascal children of Gaza,

You who constantly disturbed me with your screams under my window,

You who filled every morning with rush and chaos,

You who broke my vase and stole the lonely flower on my balcony,

Come back –

And scream as you want,

And break all the vases,

Steal all the flowers,

Come back,

Just come back…

By Khaled Juma.

La extrema derecha instrumentaliza las tractoradas del campo con convocatorias paralelas ‘asindicales’ elsaltodiario.com/agricultura/…

Por aquí un buen análisis, creo yo, de lo que viene pasando con las protestas que estamos haciendo en el campo

in reply to PixelRobot

Por cierto, sobre lo de los tractoristas y lo de estar con el campo, igual hay que recordar ciertas cosas: laplazadigital.es/despues-de-v…

Just been watching something on YouTube about Robert Williams, the first person to be killed by a robot (machine) in 1979.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_W…

He was asked to climb the racking to collect parts because the machine had malfunctioned and was running too slowly. He did so, was smashed in the head by a part of the machinery, and that was that.

And THIS SHIT is why I tell people at work that they’re not paid enough to risk their health.

in reply to DJDarren

@tigerfort There was a company somewhere where you needed to press two buttons to start a machine. The buttons were far enough apart that you needed to use two hands. This basically required you to step away from the dangerous parts of the machine to start it up and made sure that none of your hands was inside. Some idiot apparently built himself a contraption that he could push both buttons with, without having to step away. The results were quite predictable.

right people, I was digging around in my mostly finished pile of pieces and tracks, and came across this thing. Can't remember if I've shared it or not, but I sequenced it first in a dream, then remembered all the patches i used, and about 2 days later when I remembered where the drum patches i wanted were, this happened. it's simply called dream sequence idea.

What if Flux had been just an ordinary series of #DoctorWho? And would there be as much mystique around the early years if the missing episodes had never been missing? Two conversations for the price of one, in another edition of What If:

Hi everyone! If you like the idea of having journals and notes (ie. the VJOURNAL component) supported by @thunderbird , please also give your thumbs up on the following post: connect.mozilla.org/t5/ideas/s…
Thank you 🤗

What a fantastic talk! Really helpful and interesting, although I follow the progress of the project quite closely.
Audio quality was much better than last year.

NEW: WhatsApp will soon make it possible to chat with people who use other messaging apps. It's revealed some more details on how that will work.

— Apps will need to sign an agreement with Meta, then connect to its servers.
— Meta wants people to use the Signal Protocol, but also says other encryption protocols can be used if they can meet WhatsApp's standards
— WhatsApp has been testing with Matrix in recent months, although nothing is agreed yet. Swiss app Threema says it won't become interoperable

We remain excited about the Digital Markets Act and the push for interoperability: wired.com/story/whatsapp-inter…

If you didn't catch the main stage talk from Matthew, Matrix's project lead, at FOSDEM, we encourage you to watch the recording once it's posted online: fosdem.org/2024/schedule/event…

Thunderbird could get support for VJOURNAL on the Desktop! Pleeeeease retoot and vote for it!!!1!11!111 :)

It would greatly improve the open *DAV ecosystem in general. And it would make it possible to sync not just Tasks but
also Notes and Journals across all your devices with DAVx5 (already supports VJOURNAL sync) and @jtx jtx Board.

#AndroidAppRain at apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid today brings you 8 updated and 4 removed apps (yes, debug-key cleanup ongoing). From the latter 4, at least one (Notely) might return when its author finds time to work on it again.

From the former 8, 2 apps have switched from debug keys to proper release keys for signing, so if you use them you'll need to uninstall and re-install:

* Sav PDF Viewer Pro
* ADB-Stay-Awake

Enjoy your #free #Android #apps with the cleaned-up #IzzySoftRepo :awesome:

My toothbrush is made of wood. It will biodegrade when I'm done with it.

It /could/ be used to attack a business especially if sharpened, but this would be extremely inefficient. It could also kill a vampire.

If you're using Thunderbird to access your @protonmail via their bridge for paid subscribers on Windows or Linux, don't forget to manually update to the newest version of Proton Mail Bridge. 🌉

This will re-enable automatic updates and increase reliability and security. 🔒

A je to tady! Ministr zdravotnictví chce zakázat HHC. Jak již jistě všichni víte, pokud něco zakážete, lidé to automaticky přestanou dělat. Vlastíku, díky, jsi fakt jednička! Poděkování patří i bezohledným prodejcům HHC, kteří se nestydí to prodávat v automatech klidně dětem v podobě gumových bonbónů s lákavými obaly. Kvůli jejich ziskuchtivosti za každou cenu každým dnem klesá šance na legalizaci konopí k rekreačním účelům. Výrobci alkoholu mohou pomalu začít slavit.
