finally found a coral ai accelerator in stock. Should arrive sometime next week....
It's for a fun new idea to keep cat poop out of my garden.
Utilizing camera feeds and a watering system attached to my home assistant....

@fedops only water…
For now 😈

Don't be too proud of this smelly terror you've constructed. The ability to poop inside garden is insignificant next to the power of the AI controlling an irrigation system.

So, Friday evening, mailbox zero at work, lawn mowed and trimmed, laundry done and a beer schedule with an old friend for tomorrow. Guess I am off to a good start for this weekend :-)

The Thunderbird Beta channel just updated to version 126.0b1, and it brings major visual improvements to Cards View! 😍

@thunderbird looks nice, but please tell me, I am still able do disable conversations. They don’t allow a proper inbox workflow.
If so, nice job, can’t wait for it.

@autumn do what I do, use it when doing dirty work, aka cleaning, cutting the grass etc. Working clothes don’t need to be in perfect condition

I finally know what has been putting me off about Michal Burnham in Discovery. It‘s the fake smile she always has, almost like an Apple robot ahme employee

@proactiveservices now that you mention it, maybe not god, but the messiah, and yes, you are right about that

@proactiveservices Might be, don‘t think she would have seen a lot of promotions under JLP. Then again, mutiny and actively starting a war, not the signs of a good starfleet officer

You know how there are songs you just link to times in your life? Well all the way back when I started hitting puberty, we had newcomers to our class from Hungary, one boy two girls. And one of the girls, Barbara was just about the loveliest girl I ever met. Had a huge crush on her, but she ended up with the big dick of that class. Anyway Robby Williams Angels was all over the charts, just heard it in the radio, took me right back to her. Welp, firing up spotify now

I am thinking about adding a computer history section to my blog, you know, researching companies, old tech etc...
Always been interested in that.

Anybody be interested in reading what I can dig up?

(Propably going to do it anyway...)

Rather boring I am afraid, the plan is to compile the data in Nextcloud Collectives and link things together should the overlap..

@danslerush Exactly what I was thinking. Have been reading a couple of books in that sector of late and figured, why not ...

I gifted a little plush monkey to my sister on her wedding day called boba, an inside joke. She just sent over a picture of my nephew holding the monkeys hand while having his diaper changed. That did put a little tear to my eye I have to admit :-)

Testing time 24.04 :-)

@brandon It looks beautiful and so far, nothing went wrong

@nurettin Can't say yet, still installing

Okay, the new RDP feature of Gnome is amazing, works just perfectly. Even Audio. The Firefox snap is rather snappy (sorry) now and launched quickly, thunderbird is a bit slower, but still a better performance than firefox used to be when they started using snap for it.
All in all, not a bad first impression.

Looking forward to taking a deeper look at 24.04 this weekend

Only thing I whish was there is seemlessly switching between the rdp and local session, like on windows, aka starting a remote session while out and about and then just logging into it, when I return home. Guess that makes my gnome 47 whishlist

thewk,

@fedops you don‘t need to be logged into a local session in order to use it, it creates a virtual one using your client’s preferred resolution. If you are already signed in, it takes over that session as it used to. Almost on par with Windows by now. (RDP is the only thing about Windows I prefer over any OS)
It also feels faster, so they seem to have worked in the streams compression

@fedops In security terms, I agree, many faults. But does the saying go? It‘s not ideal, but it‘s the best we got ;-)
