    I do love my British documentary pieces since they are higher quality than what is churned out of the mills here in the US (a lot less aliens, planetary alignment apocalypse theories, reality TV shtick, etc). But boy is this spot on... #humor #bbc

    I see more instances of people telling me, "I wasn't sure about this medical topic so I asked ChatGPT and it surprisingly knew the answer." My response, "It gave you an answer. Did you confirm the answer was correct from a reputable source?" This is worse than blindingly taking the first answer from Stackoverflow without checking if it is right or makes any sense. It's more like blindly taking the first web search result in the early web when some random quack or Nazi site could come up as a top result. #ai #chatgpt

    The people behind Bluesky/Threads/Post/anything besides ActivityPub/Diaspora protocol federated social web, financially and otherwise, are the exact same people that gave us the calamity of modern social media and tried the exact same market monopoly move with web3/crypto (which I despise for other reasons but that’s a segue). They even sold the latter with the same decentralization and egalitarianism marketing shtick. I’ll be damned if I trust my social media presence to them again. To quote The Wire: “Fuck me once, shame on you. Fuck me twice, shame on me.” #bluesky #fediverse #ActivityPub #BillionairesShouldNotExist #rant

    I admit that the original Road House is a guilty indulgence of mine. It has more than its share of over the top 1980s cheesiness. This reboot takes over the top cringe to the next level though. I have no desire to watch it even with the Jake Gyllenhaal eye candy. Ugh. #movies #RoadHouse

    TL;DR seems to be that Substack is still a Nazi bar but they just want the Nazis to not wear their entire uniforms there any longer since it is freaking out the neighbors. Got it. Actually that may be too generous an interpretation of this development. I appreciate the efforts and the infinitesimal results that were achieved were more than I thought they'd get. But it's still just a Nazi bar. #Substack

    Boeing has such a stellar track record of not putting passengers and crew in danger with “just trust us” and fox guarding the hen house regulation that I think they should just get a blank check here too…whaddaya say? #aerospace #aviation #boeing #737max

    Someone recently discovered the early copy of 86-DOS (the pre-cursor to PC-DOS/MS-DOS). This person made a video exploring it. This is version 0.11 from July 1980 previously seen by less than a dozen people.

    @failedLyndonLaRouchite It's a bit overly simplistic but yeah they paid something less than $100K entirely for the rights and hired the 86-DOS main developer, Tim Paterson, of 86-DOS to get it up to where it needed to be to become PC-DOS. MS-DOS 1.x was very rough but had lots of improvements over 86-DOS. IIRC MS-DOS 2.x was essentially a ground up rewrite though.

    I'm really trying to prime the pump on using PeerTube over YouTube. Even more than other parts of the fediverse it seems search/content discovery is ineffective enough that I'm going to call it broken :(. To brute force through this I even went to Sepia, got a list of all the servers, spent a couple hours going through accounts to find ones I even had a nominal interest in. My instance knew none of them. Fine, I'll just paste their channel URL into the search bar to force a fetch. Nope. Thankfully doing that with a video worked. Then I could subscribe to them, and away we go. I hope/hoped. There was one video that I forgot to add to a "watch later" list. Surely now that I subscribe to that account I could type their name in the search bar and it'd find it. Nope. What about keywords from the video? Nope. I'm at a loss for what it takes to finally have that start showing up on my local instance. Maybe I need to self-host to start figuring some of this out perhaps fix. Once I find stuff the streaming is great though. And I'm very glad to see there are now built-in mechanisms to help creators monetize through donations. #PeerTube #fediverse.

    @amoroso I was going to ask if there were any major x86 based workstations of the 1980s and doing some searching found out at least Sun made one as early as 1988. It still seems like an outlier by dedicated workstation vendors. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun386i

      Sun386i
      The Sun386i (codenamed Roadrunner) is a discontinued hybrid UNIX workstation/PC compatible computer system produced by Sun Microsystems, launched in 1988. It is based on the Intel 80386 microprocessor but shares many features with the contemporary Sun-3 series systems. Hardware Unlike the Sun-3 models, the Sun386i has a PC-like motherboard and "mini-tower"-style chassis. Two variants were produced, the Sun386i/150 and the Sun386i/250 with a 20 or 25 MHz CPU respectively. The motherboard includes the CPU, 80387 FPU, 82380 timer/DMA/interrupt controller and a custom Ethernet IC called BABE ("Bus Adapter Between Ethernet"). Floppy disk, SCSI, RS-232 and Centronics parallel interfaces are also provided, as are four ISA slots (one 8-bit, three 16-bit) and four proprietary 32-bit "local" bus slots. The latter are used for RAM and frame buffer cards.Two types of RAM card are available, a 4 or 8 MB card, and the "XP Cache" card, incorporating up to 8 MB with an 82385 cache controller and 32 KB of cache SRAM. Up to two memory cards can be installed, to give a maximum RAM capacity of 16 MB. Mass...

    @heluecht @goatsarah This seems even more feature-full than the Twitter plugin ever was. The multiple-posts to break up too long messages, the propagation of following accounts, etc. I think the one thing that I would love to see is the option to put a URL to the original Friendica post in the message body sent over to Bluesky. For me this is as much about evangelism in the non-fediverse space as following users that jumped ship from Twitter to Bluesky instead of the fediverse...

    OK Enough playing with the new Friendica...back to the tasks I am supposed to be doing. The Bluesky bridge, the thing I've been looking forward to the most seems to be working very well. Posts from Friendica shows up there, with proper segmentation if longer than their paltry 300 character limit. Following an account from the Friendica side propagates over to the Bluesky Account. Reshares/likes/comments on Bluesky posts done in Friendica are properly reflected there. Reshares/likes/comments on fediverse posts do not show up over there, as expected. The Bluesky content is not federated to other fediverse servers, as expected. I can't even get it to come up with a direct link search. So all thumbs up! The only hiccup I've found so far is posts that are reflected from Friendica to Bluesky seem to show up in Relatica as from my Bluesky user when they are split up. Still overall excellent work to everyone that worked on it, especially @heluecht
