of Mastodon, I want to (for $) 4 to go on the cover of my blue-collar space-opera WIP.

I've got descriptions for the 3 humans & 1 alien. I'd love to discover what they all really look like.

I'm looking for “realistic stylized painting” like you'd see on an old-fashioned movie poster.

content please; &/or especially welcome. Budget is... not a lot, but will find a way to pay fairly

DM to discuss!

Pls boost for reach!

Microsoft, Amazon, Google and others will soon announce a new add-on for only $39/year that promisses to keep your private data, well, private. And it will have this annoying bug where your data still gets fed into whatever AI model du jour.

maintenance today. My HP 7585B stopped responding over RS-232. Diagnostics revealed a problem with the interface card. Luckily I have a spare machine that can donate a new working card!

Given the iTerm hullabaloo, I tried Kitty (https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/). And I am unsure why I didn’t try it sooner, except having not heard of it. As a macOS and Linux user, it is more responsive, and miles easier to configure. Took about 15 minutes to get just how I had iTerm, and having all my configs in a simple .conf file means I can integrate with my dotfiles repo quite nicely. Bye-bye iTerm.

About to Take Flight - The puffed feathers of this Grey Catbird tell of a chilly day as it raises its wings to fly.

I put together a little lyric for my entry “Mare” this year

It basically consists of pictures and clips from the animal sanctuary where I work, featuring – amongst others – Wendy, the beautiful being who was the main inspiration for this song. ❤️

(and there are also a few glimpses of yours truly 😊)

If you like what you hear, please consider voting RAIL, but be sure to listen to the other participants' tracks as well!

Well, on the plus side, all the vast number of pages of AI slop you search for on topics nowadays sound the same. So you can quickly move on to a page written by humans.

"You're interested in learning more about X? Well, it's a fascinating topic. Here, we'll talk about all the ways you can do X! The history of X is fascinating..." bleah bleah bleah

Thinking of making a search engine that doesn’t blindly crawl the web, but instead crawls a curated list of sites with real, useful, and meaningful information. Specifically, NOT on this list will be websites with AI-generated content.

Maybe I’m crazy, but this seems like it would be really useful. So tired of wading through pages of garbage.

Problem is that MY curated list may not sync with YOUR curated list. Hmm.

Better late than never I have joined the camp :)

(actually, I wanted to do this for a while; only never had the time to do it properly…)

So whether you're a fan of my work, or you're simply curious, or you have never clicked on a single music link of mine, here's your chance to go nuts:

https://music.schallundstille.de

(not yet included are the singles, remixes and entries from '22 and '23. these will eventually find a home on their own respective albums 😊)
