Getting tired of the ongoing "world's first AI-powered [thing that in no way needs AI]" trend in my press release inbox. Absolute flood now CES is in full swing.

My "favourite:" the world's first AI-powered wearable UV sensor. A wearable for tracking UV exposure isn't new (hell, you can buy […]

thanks @vifino !
and yes it should use caller ID really, but I couldn't figure how to make hylafax give me the ID details in the limited time I had before it's first deployment at EMF Camp, and I never got around to fixing that 😅

Aha! some folks made my CFax thing work at #39c3
Amazing!
thanks to @stary and @vifino

I'm not at 39c3, and I don't know what the number is for this. Hopefully someone will fill in the details :neofox_laptop:

Reminder that the average person doesn't use ad blockers, doesn't even understand the difference between ads and content, that's just "how the internet looks."

If it seems like a LOT of people are ignorant about the harm done by AI and Crypto and think its "just […]

[genocide]

Please look past the clickbait title and watch this video: https://youtu.be/e0qh1kkEAaM?si=h2p5SgMWRoCRVtyR

Britain is actively assisting a genocide, and actively suppressing those acting or speaking against it.

Shame on Britain.

Free the prisoners.

omg, don't get a reputation for giving thoughtful hand-made gifts to people you love every Christmas. it sets a precedent and the workload tends to increase each year 😆

with three days to go, one of which involves significant time spent traveling, I still have not finished my presents for two […]

Ah, of course, now that I've reached a suitable level of separation from my main user, I can't actually start any GUI applications because they don't have permission to access my main user's Wayland or X interfaces

perhaps I should just log in the other use with a full gui session

RE: https://tech.lgbt/@lexbailey/115748848414494109

so far two people believe in me!

So far I've tried:

* export a PDF instead (didn't work, same error)
* extract the raw data from the Wayland clipboard in a format that can be returned to the clipboard later and pasted in to a new […]

I want to use furry musicians to soundtrack my youtube videos. I want to make sure that it is music that the artists are ok with folks using in this way.

Anyone have suggestions on where to look, or for your own music? I want to credit and thank fellow furries!

I recently bought one of these from aliexpress, and the more I look at it, the more I realise just how cursed it appears to be when you don't have the context of what it is used for. IYKYK

I think I've found the most scuffed online takeaway order menu.

I want a quantum salad with souce, and I'll have the extra chips that come with a discount.
