Well my Phanpy trial ended on my Pixel. It stopped loading. Deleted the PWA and set it up again, just a black screen with a loading circle hanging there. Back to Moshindon now.
@cinimodev So funny, I was reading your blog post (April 29th) about movies and how you like Road House, I checked my media server and I had it in my library! Watching it now.
Today I’m trying out Phanpy all day and see if I enjoy it more than a dedicated app on my devices. I’m worried I will lose my place and miss toots that happened overnight or during the work day. Reason I’m addicted to Ivory because I know it remembers my position. It’s a different experience reading new toots and going back in time. 😂
I had the worst nightmare and been awake since 3am.
Anyways, stumbled on a blog post about FreeBSD (I boosted earlier from @discoverbsd and went down a rabbit hole reading this entire blog. I admire the dedication of individuals that put this much love into their blog and website.
Reminds me of the old days of Web 1.0.
@mms thanks for helping me stay awake reading your posts!
So journalists are surprised that these AI companies are lying about what they’re scraping? Joanna Stern may have stated the obvious but what now?
Are we the few that can smell 💩 ?
Like how about these tech journalists do their job and call them out publicly? Not just for the scraping but the environmental impact of storing all this data.
We cancel individuals for far less. Let’s start canceling corporations. Enough of this capitalist government.
