       @Gargron I think one of the few translated books I can think of was the Three Body Problem books (before finding out about the author in more depth.)It was written very differently from English novels, but clearly done so with care. It had such a different voice to it, and that helped them stand out to me.I can't imagine flattening that out of them into traditional Western novel-styles. That's not to say Western novels can't be good, but this was very unique for me and I appreciated it.EDIT: And, importantly, it was hand-localized, not at all machine translated.

       @fribbledom Well dang that looks a heck of a lot better!I really wanted to like my PineTime, but between hardware issues when recharging it causing it to bootloop that flashing or wiping wouldn't fix, and the single red LED HR monitor being poor at doing it accurately, and a few other things I couldn't stick with it.It's nice to see it still alive of a community though!

       @Lyude Sounds like a licensing nightmare considering it's still not a court-decided thing how that works yet.

       @davidrevoy @jimmac Yep. I tried, just to see, if running a smaller targeted model in something like Ollama would be any more interesting to use with Home Assistant than it's built-in parser system (which I've added to with my own automations).A _slight_ mis-hear of me setting a timer caused it to spew out some completely useless garbage on significant delay.Even making HA matches take priority, it'd still, using the very thing LLM's are _supposed_ to be good at, screw up interpretations. "is the fan on in the hallway?" and it'd say "I don't know about any fans in Home Assistant hallway" or something but the fan was very on, and very in the Hallway room (later trying the correct HA syntax answered exactly right VERY fast).I got rid of it. I'd rather be able to ramble at my speaker and say "Pizza pasta put it in your mouth" and it reply with "I'm not aware of any area called 'your mouth'" in 2 seconds or "Sorry, I didn't understand that" if I'm even more unintelligible (or just 'off' with my command), and only have the STT and TTS overheads on my GPU, than have the dice roller fuck up repeatedly.The only thing it was halfway decent at was me basically tossing it a JSON dump from the weather forecast command and going "Here make a conversational thing about the next couple days". It was actually pretty good at that, but not worth it. Rewrote that as just my own writing to say exact temps and conditions for each of the next 3 days. My brain can track the similarities hearing it.

       RE: https://mastodon.social/@eff/116308118238736985On this front I just realized uh...Folks who want to use #Meshtastic devices to communicate at protests?You probably should use a dedicated one that's only for these events and keep it turned off when not at the protest itself.The standard firmware has hardware IDs broadcast -- it's why wiping one without restoring the old keys means your friends need to delete you from their NodeDB for a key refresh.And that's a way to find you later.RT: https://mastodon.social/users/eff/statuses/116308118238736985

       @davidrevoy Genuinely one of the most maddening things in games x3I adore Critter Cove but the fact the game makes it impossible to earn reasonable amounts of income from selling things, and instead only from tourism, is immensely frustrating. Even the rare crystal you can only find on a single island only sells for I think 5 doubloons each, and selling a haul every storm isn't enough to buy anything.

       Color-matched to MLM pride 5-color using my collar from FWA x3 Paper where there'd be white, I know, but still. Each yard isn't bad on its own but ordering 5 at once is _oof._#rubbercrafting #rubbercraft

       Also pan colors! I've already got the hot pink (it's more apt for pan than it comes off on camera) and yellow, and metallic blue on the right if liked though the Sky on the left is more apt. Guess Sky would have 2 uses -- gay masc and pan!#RubberCrafting #RubberCraft

       @fdroidorg ~~I'm put off the article by some updates saying a project is "mostly AI"... That has existed since before it was even open sourced in 2012.~~~~That said I haven't used SkyMap in years, so I don't know how much it's changed. Could be recent fixes were LLM, which is upsetting if true, but the classification being "mostly AI" instead of "mostly human" comes off as more "this is just my 30 second vibes off a thing rather than looking into the history" in a way that makes me uncomfortable with any other "mostly AI, cause it looks like it could be" classification that person makes _without_ the visible proof of such. They even say it's hard to tell off text alone but proceed anyway, like... I dunno, feels antithetical to its own thesis?~~So many projects using it just suuuucks though.The standout for me has been the enormous influx of "material you music streaming apps" that half the time don't even say they're just ripping music off YouTube Music.EDIT: Missed that it was rewritten in Kotlin, ick if AI was used heavily for that.
