I added a couple more relays to dmv.community to get more content into the federated timeline, including a UK relay and a Japanese one.

Remember, we have a built-in translation feature powered by DeepL.

This band is made up of kids fresh out of high school. They have so much potential and they're already making great music. I can't wait to hear what they do next.

The Apple fanboy butthurt from this is giving me life. I don't even care about iMessage on Android.

Lawmakers Seek Probe on Apple (AAPL) Over Shuttering iMessage-for-Android Apps - Bloomberg

jcrabapple,

@cliffwade
Thankfully we have RCS which if Apple follows through they'll be adopting in early '24.

I don't think anyone on Android really wants iMessage, we are just tired of iPhone users complaining and not being willing to switch to a cross platform solution. Thankfully most of my contacts are reasonable and installed Signal.

Spiritbox vibes. Great clean and harsh vocals, and a sick breakdown. I'm looking forward to hearing more from this band.

I don't understand people who can wait to buy their coffee out of the house. I need at least 1-2 16oz cups in me before I'm remotely willing to leave the house for any reason but a cigarette or fire.

jcrabapple,

@famousblueben
Yeah I wake up and head straight for the coffee.

I somewhat sympathize with the anti-Threads crowd, but I'd be a lot more sympathetic if there wasn't so much holier-than-thou, conspiracy theorist, fear mongering coming from them.

jcrabapple,

@aggiepm and unlike what some people think, they can't "extinguish" us.

Fedilab doesn't like links with referrals in them...

If you're going to call me an "FBI plant who supports Threads" you're absolutely getting a block.

Lmao. Weirdos.

jcrabapple,

@gamingonlinux
Some of these anti-Threads people are absolute nutjobs.

I firmly believe that AI is unavoidable, but ethical AI is the way forward. The government really needs to act on this ASAP.

Say what you will about Google Bard, but having it summarize YouTube videos for you is killer.

jcrabapple,

@theshrimpboat46
In some ways, yeah. Chatgpt still seems to be better at coding.

jcrabapple,

@theshrimpboat46
Yeah it's always good to verify and test what it gives you, but most of the time it gives you a good, accurate base to start from.

jcrabapple,

@theshrimpboat46
😂

jcrabapple,

@jkirkendall
I'm glad you were able to get some good information but that is pretty sad.

But hey maybe you can be in a Google Bard ad.

Fedilab made a minor change to the Timeline UI. Changed the posts time location and it's throwing me for a loop. I'll get used it but gr!

jcrabapple,

@PhilGastwirth does Fedilab not have a "load more" feature to fill in gaps in the timeline?

jcrabapple,

@PhilGastwirth hmm I have huge gaps in my timeline and no option to load in more posts

I'm so tired. Did not sleep well again. Anakin must have heard a noise during the night because he was barking a bit. Didn't really get back to sleep after that. 😴

jcrabapple,

@PhilGastwirth me too lol

I added a few more products to the DMV.community merch store, including a couple hats, a face mask, and a tumbler. :dmv: :mac:

https://dmv-community.printify.me/products

All profits go towards the DMV.community server costs! 💰

jcrabapple,

@theshrimpboat46
If we grow much more I might actually look for some help, so I appreciate the offer. Right now it's very manageable by myself.

The best way to help right now is by donating or buying merch! Costs have doubled recently thanks to the need for the OpenSearch indexing and upgraded database.
