I've been out of the loop but what happened to Graphite optimizations within GCC? gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Graphite I haven't heard news on it in literal years. The only thing I can find is that graphite developers moved on to polly.llvm.org/ in llvm...
yep, you can still enable it but LLVM is where itās really taking off. Graphite hasnāt had big news. First heard of it through the Thorium browser.
IDK if any distros ship LLVM with -polly enabled yet, though.
basically Googleās Gemini was a front and the real reason they need those new supercomputer datacenters is tripling Chromium build times in 2025-2026 with fat cross-language LTO, CFI, Rust, and polly. /j
@adingbatponder I use uBlock Origin for that. Even kills the cookie consent in 90% of the cases. Not on some Heise pages, but there the Zapper helps to just remove the overlaysā¦ Or leave them up, and simply switch to "Reader mode" ā just tested, works fine on that page.

You can just use @delta with your existing Postfix+Dovecot server by clicking "Create new profile" -> "Use other server" -> "Classic E-Mail login" and logging into your server there.

TIL about the Model Context Protocol, a standard for exposing tools/resources/prompts to LLMs used via desktops/other clients. Intriguing. I've been wondering how old-style Mycroft/Alexa-style skill development would work in the age of LLMs and I'm guessing this is it.
Currently trying to use Goose, a CLI developer agent, to build a Joplin MCP server that exposes notes/tags/resources to models. Since context is apparently everything with these, I'm wondering if I can eventually spec out a project in Joplin and have an LLM help implement some features, and/or have the LLM update that spec as things change, including potentially creating/toggling todo items and such. Seems to be off to an OK start.
Maybe I'll finally build that GTFS interface/skill I've been thinking about for years. Would love the ability to chat with transit schedule data, including real-time updates, right from my desktop or Home Assistant satellite. modelcontextprotocol.io/introdā¦

I also remember text to speech being super cool back in the MacOS 8 days.
I am not convinced we've really advanced that far contrary to what some want to say.

You can turn Apple Intelligence off on macOS in the new āApple Intelligence & Siriā area of System Settings.
See my previous boost on creating a āmismatch" Siri voice that effectively disables AI across all your connected Apple iCloud devices. #AI #AppleIntelligence #mac #Apple #macos15sequoia
I would also like to say to Apple. You've had Siri for how many years? You've added many variations to your English speakers. But no Canadian variations.
Perhaps it's just the moment we're in, but I'd like to see a Canadian Western, Canadian Eastern, Canadian Maritime, and Newfoundland Option for Siri.
This is wild. In the updated Mac User Guide when you click on "learn more" in the Apple Intelligence area of the Settings it says:
"Turn Apple Intelligence on: With macOS 15.3 or later, Apple Intelligence is on by default and integrated across features in your apps. "
then a few lines laterā¦
"Note: Apple Intelligence is currently in beta. Apple Intelligence uses generative models, and outputs may be inaccurate, unexpected, or offensive. Check important information for accuracy."

@RaccoonForFriendica version 0.4.1-beta10 has been released and is available for testing in the Play store (or in Obtainium if you prefer installing directly from GitHub)!
Apart from the usual localization and dependency updates, this version contains several improvements for embedded images and, if you are using Friendica, you will also be able to insert embedded images within your post body (as opposed to regular attachments). This can benefit those who want to create larger posts with several illustrations.
Let me know what you think about it and, as always, #livefasteattrash
@Piero Bosio thanks for the feedback! Let me see if I understand your idea correctly: do you mean to add more options (e.g. "add image", "embed image", "add link", etc.) in the drop-down menu shown in the post creation page?
