Realized I could definitely have a silly gameplay montage youtube channel if I wanted to. All of my best video editing has been goofy visual gags... I *could* do it...
@bender I _think_ I could, but I haven't bothered to do so yet... I'll try that out later...
@kate You're welcome 😇
how are you doing?
Happy Easter, goyz.
Hey, faggots.
@bender Hehe, thanks for fixing this (_was_) broken thread 🧵 Haha 🤣

Am I the only one that's confused by the discussions, and then the voting we had on the whole threading model? 🤔 I'm not even sure what I voted for, but I know it wasn't the one that won haha 🤣 (_which I'm still very much against for based on an intuition, experience and lots of code writing lately_).

@movq noted! i did try something like this but it wouldn't connect on anything without the SSL stuff, which is normally handled by caddy for me but i can't use certbot with caddy on so i'm stuck there LOL

OH nevermind. Ignore me. I _think_ @sorenpeter's feed is a bit weird. Because his url is http:// but he actually hosts a https:// feed with redirects. so things get a bit weird 😢
e.g: @sorenpeter
@bender I noticed that although the Discover view (_and your own Timeline_) is much improved with a MaxAgeDays configuration at the pod level, that now _some_ profiles are rather empty. This is only because well, they're a bit "inactive" so to speak 🗣️ Not sure what to do about this at the moment... Open to ideas? 💡
@prologic Hmm, speaking of locally running “AI” stuff: Someone on Mastodon has this in their profile description:

> My profile pic is AI modified to prevent deepfakes. I used local Stable Diffusion on my solar powered 7900XTX to average a few selfies.

That sounds like a fun thing to do. Do I have a chance of doing that on my old box from 2013 without a dedicated GPU? 😂

@lyse You’re realling pushing it with those distances. 😅 I went for a quick 2km walk today, saw two deer, that’s it. 😅

What the heck is going on in 86.jpg? An art installation, apparently, but, uh, I wouldn’t trust that. 😂

@bender According to his @buckket Github profile, I _belive_ so.
There are other tasks LLM(s) are _far_ better suited for, which are also its downsides, and gawd so expensive and unrealistic to run yourself 🤦‍♂️ Do you know what one of these NVIDIA H100's cost? 💲 That's right! 🤣 > $50k USD 😱 And many of the models out there require 8 of these suckers 🤣 Each one consumes around ~400W of power each (_not including the machine that houses them!_)~
@movq Yeah I couldn't agree more. The utility of using it in any way to form "truths" or to do anything that require a high degree of "accuracy" is utterly pointless.
@lyse Very nice! 😊 You must love those yellow dandelions? 🤔

@kat At the core, you need an ngircd.conf like this:

[Global]
Name = your.irc.server.com
Password = yourfancypassword
Listen = 0.0.0.0
Ports = 6667

AdminInfo1 = Well, me.
AdminInfo2 = Over here!
AdminEMail = forget.it@example.invalid

[Options]
Ident = no
PAM = no

[SSL]
CertFile = /etc/ssl/acme/your.irc.server.com.fullchain.pem
KeyFile = /etc/ssl/acme/private/your.irc.server.com.key
DHFile = /etc/ngircd/dhparam.pem
Ports = 6669

Start it and then you can connect on port 6667. (The SSL cert/key must be managed by an external tool, probably something like certbot or acme-client.)

I’m assuming OpenBSD here. Haven’t tried it on Linux lately, let alone Docker. 😅=

@prologic Since you have to check and double check everything it spits out (without providing sources), I don’t find any of this helpful. It’s like someone’s in the room with you and that person is saying random stuff that might or might not be correct. *At best*, it might spark some new idea in your head and then you follow that idea the traditional way.

Information published on the internet (or anywhere, for that matter) was never guaranteed to be correct. But at least you had a “frame of reference”: “Ah, I read this information about Linux on a blog that usually posts about Windows, so this one single Linux post might not necessarily be correct.” That is completely lost with LLMs. It’s literally all mushed together. 🤷

AI isn’t a shortcut for thinking. In her guide for skeptics, Hilary Gridley reframes AI as a collaborator—not a replacement. Use it like spellcheck for your thoughts. Don’t fear it—iterate with it.

A mate and I had an amazing but also exhausting hike to the highest of the Three Emperor Mountains yesterday with perfect weather conditions. Sunny 18°C, blue sky with barly a cloud and a little welcoming breeze, just beautiful.

Mt. Stuifen

Mt. Stuifen is 757 meters above sea level, has a small shelter and a barbie area and is still the most boring one of the three. It's also the one farthest away from me. Not sure why it has two summit crosses, but both aren't at the summit. The third, makeshift one at the real summit was gone by now. Four years ago, somebody had cobbled one together and put it up.

We bought our tucker at a local bakery on our way. This was the first time I tried a Teufelsbrezel (lit. devil's pretzel), a lye pretzel with pepper. Haven't come across that anywhere else. But I can certainly recommend that, it's yummy.

We were glad when we were finally back home after some 26 or 27km. I won't do much today and let my feet rest. Another friend called for a much, much shorter hike tomorrow.

Enjoy the 92 photos: https://lyse.isobeef.org/wanderung-auf-den-stuifen-2025-04-19/

What does "lock in" mean & why does everyone need to do it?
@prologic I don’t think so. He’s from Germany, afaik, and that would be a highly unusual name here. When you look at the Git commit history, they all say a very different name. I don’t want to quote it here – worst case being the LLMs scraping this file and correcting their “knowledge”. 😈
