Working on #decentralization, #p2p and #dWeb tech, online #privacy and #security, #CopyLeft, #FOSS, #Rust and #autonomi (find me on https://forum.autonomi.community as happybeing).

Note: autonomi was called #SafeNetwork.

Possibly still maintaining #vdash on github.

The #fediverse is a lifeboat, #p2p is the shore.

Even though I have chosen to disable notifications in @signalapp Messenger, it continually nags me to enable them.

That's in spite of:

  • my active choice
  • that notifications are a known security risk for those most in need of privacy

That's a dark pattern as well as bad , which undermines my faith in the team and their motives.

Just setup a 2nd hand bought T480s. Had it running with . Now runs 11, and

The efficiency boost is honestly mind blowing. And that is with so many keystrokes to wrap my head around. Absolutely worth the money and lets me work at least four times as fast as with the previous setups.

Would I have liked to keep on using Linux? Yes but at this point if one is doing more than just browsing the web and reading E-Mails it is very hard to recommend.

@WestphalDenn I just bought a and had the opposite experience.

I keep hearing people say things about v which aren't true, and in a recent discussion they turned out to be out of date opinions from someone not using it.

Obviously you were, but I take issue that it's only good for basic tasks. I do all sorts and it just gets better while Windows degrades and spys.

W11 cursor was jerky, sending all cicks home. Noticeably faster when I switched to 24.

@WestphalDenn you didn't mention that and I can't comment on it.

I tried copilot and Gemini to convert an eslint config to a flat config for eslint 9. I couldn’t get it to work. That’s really the future I’m looking forward to.

@dom I've tried a few simple programming tasks but the only thing I've found to work as fast as web search + DIY (running models locally on a shit hot laptop) is asking for the syntax for simple bash scripting features.

It's still worse though because it insists on obscuring the answer with a load of introductory and explanatory text.

So it's as fast, and less brain sapping to search the web, every single time so far.
