just thought I would post this so you guys know of this thing. Who knows, maybe someone could make an nvda addon for this at some point. github.com/supertone-inc/super…

Well, maybe we need to be more clear what we are trying to do: #deltachat apps are a cross-platform private messenger suite, that aims to provide a consistent UX/UI for users with lots of experience using WhatsApp and Signal.

Telegram has good fast UX but is hardly a private messenger (it has a central cleartext database of everyone and everything).

Matrix and XMPP are well-esteemed fellows in federated messaging, but so far didn't grow a WA/Signal-level cross-platform messaging UX.

YMMV

in reply to Arale Xan

@arale_xan This is not about a full technical comparison of security aspects. Our post was more about UX goals here in this thread. That being said, email metadata in #chatmail messaging is pretty minimal, and we are working on reducing it further: delta.chat/en/help#message-met…

Elevate @thunderbird
Do More

Add powerful cloud capabilities to Thunderbird and fund development of the always free and open source apps you love by subscribing to Pro.

Warum ich nicht an KI glaube - Grund 283 - "hilfreiche" automatisierte Optionen
z.b. habe ich gerade festgestellt, dass Thunderbird automatisch meine Mails gruppiert. Nach meinem Verständnis ist das nur hilfreich, wenn es sich um einen Thread aus mehreren Antworten handelt. @thunderbird ist allerdings so eingestellt, dass auch neuere Ausgaben eines Newsletters nicht chronologisch angezeigt werden, sondern bei alten Ausgaben eingruppiert. Wie solll ich da etwas finden.

Dulon Von Paradis Project: blog post 3,
Now that I’ve started writing about music I can’t stop. My Canada Counsel grant is allowing me to dive into one of my very favourite pools, and the water’s fine! In reading the first half of Friedrich Dulon’s autobiography I’ve been most moved by his accounts of playing music with others, not for performance or money, but for the joy of it. Busking is primarily about money it’s true, but it’s not stage performance, and it’s definitely not glamorous, two of the many reasons I love it so. Here’s what happened to me while playing at my favourite station, Queen’s Park, this week.

A lost recording of a Pavarotti concert in a Welsh village is released.

The Decca label celebrates the late tenor’s 90th birthday with the out-of-print archives of the Llangollen Competition, which he won in 1955 as a member of an amateur choir.

‘The Lost Concert’ also includes the first two recordings of Pavarotti’s career.

Several episodes into Earth Sound, thanks to deborahh@cosocial.ca for the brilliant recommendations, a decades old mystery was solved for me. Back when I used to camp, and spend a lot more time in nature, there was this intermittent sound, a beat that started slow, and got faster. It was of such resonance that you could feel it in your chest and in the ground. It’s a ruffed Grouse, and you have to be exactly in its line of sound, and if you’re a female ruffed grouse I guess you get pretty horney. For so many years I wonderd, a bever, some huge mutant scunk about to spoil my year? Now I know. This audio rendering isn’t great, but if you’ve ever heard it and wondered, now you’ll know too

Hey @FreakyFwoof
Am enjoying this one.

Darkness WithinBy: whimsical musings 1
On the fateful night when Ron and Hermione were abducted, the wheels of destiny began to turn. For Harry, the kidnapping of his friends shattered the illusion that the light side could protect those he loved. An ultimatum was presented, and a decision was made. Now, Harry stands at a crossroads: Can he protect those he loves without losing himself in the process?

Visto lo visto, creo que conviene, para quien no lo haya hecho, recalibrar un poco el tema de independencia judicial, separación de poderes, y estado de derecho.

Los jueces son el poder del Estado que tiene menos legitimidad democrática (prácticamente ninguna), menos control, menos transparencia, etc.

A lo mejor hay que plantearse que la función de resolución de conflictos de la judicatura no puede o deber convertirse en un obstáculo para la democracia.

La Fiscalía de #Portugal🇵🇹 reconoce que, como indicaba esta mañana el 'Diário de Notícias', hay escuchas al exprimer ministro António Costa relacionadas con el caso que acabó con su dimisión que no fueron incorporadas a la causa judicial. El 'DN' hablaba de 22, la Fiscalía admite siete

i've been told recently, that llms have become useful for code review, and after reading the whole thread here, i can't help but remain doubtful.

lest we feel superior in *our* ability to clock LLM garbage, this disaster among elites is a microcosm of something even worse that LLMs and their sister technologies of shitcoins and spambots are harbingers of: we *all* have heuristics that we need to use to make sense of the world, and heuristics work because of an implicit presumption of good faith in many interactions. most presumptions can be hacked if some significant plurality of actors in a system are always seeking maximum advantage

Thank you for your continued support!
Mona 7 will be available later this year as a new app.

Free features will include browsing timelines, posting with photos and videos, favoriting, reposting, and limited customization.

Premium feature pack (supports Family Sharing; works on iPhone/iPad/Mac) will be available for 3 USD per month or 20 USD per year.

If you have Mona Pro Max, the premium feature pack will also be available for just 20 USD as a one-time purchase (limited-time offer).

in reply to Mona app

Huh what? So now it's no longer one time purchase for features, I have to subscribe? IIRC I have Mona pro, I got the features, no idea how much it was back then but it was fine. But no way I'm subscribing just to use features of such an app. One time purchase, or even pay for big upgrades, fine. But USD per month to, browse Mastodon?
Thanks that I'm on Android at this point and Pachli is free and OSS.

Už jsem tady psal o tomhle klenotu ve vedlejším městě přes který každý den jezdím do Londýna.
Napadla mě ještě jedna zajímavost.
Jak vidíte, té to vlastně jeden velký kruhový objezd vytvořený pěti malými kruháči.
Ale všimli jste si, že ačkoli ty krajní, malé objezdy jsou tradiční a jezdí se po směru hodinových ručiček, ten vnitřní je opačně - proti směru 😁
Už se vám točí šošolka?
