That's awesome! Solar power has been a real game changer.

Sounds like the answer is to spread the wealth, not to become unreliable.

Why is this something that's needed?

Yeah. It's bad out there.

Poe's law makes this almost as bad an idea as Elon's many bad ideas about pushing towards fascism and making thinly vailed white supremacist signals.

The shared repo doesn't look like fine tuning. It just looks like prompts.

I'm not sure what abliteration is

Seems like you'd be interested in https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/about/

I hope you find a way to share your works.

Thanks for explaining further. This is not something I've ever thought about so I'm going to take time to process it.

Think of AAE as a closed practice. You can learn about, you can view it from the outside, but it is not yours to use as you please.

Help me understand this. It makes no sense to me. I don't even know where to begin thinking about it in terms that I can understand.

 

U.S. Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), Chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee, released text of the Senate’s bipartisan national security supplemental package and issued the following statement:

“As Ukraine runs low on ammunition to fend off Putin’s brutal invasion, it is imperative we finally extend our support. We must also live up to our commitments to our allies around the globe and quickly get more aid to innocent civilians caught in conflict, including in Gaza, where the humanitarian crisis is especially dire. I never believed we should link policy demands to emergency aid for our allies, but Republicans insisted—so Democrats negotiated in good faith over many weeks and now there is a bipartisan deal on border policy legislation. Ukraine’s fate and so much more hangs in the balance—it’s time for Congress to act.”

Summary and full text of the bill are provided within the press release.

This looks like a great starting point for people with little to no experience with programming to learn to program using Python.

Everything taught by futurecoder.io can be used locally on your own computer. But futurecoder.io doesn't show you how to install Python on your machine but you can fill in that gap with the information provided @ https://wiki.python.org/moin/BeginnersGuide/Download

Other resources are provided on the python.org Beginners Guide if needed.

 

OpenELA is a non-profit trade association of open source Enterprise Linux distribution developers.

There are many Linux Distributions that are perfectly suitable for enterprise use cases and environments. For the purpose of this charter and project, OpenELA recognizes “Enterprise Linux” (EL) as 1:1 and bug-for-bug source code compatibility which today is aligned to RHEL and CentOS.

OpenELA's mission is to provide a secure, transparent, and reliable Enterprise Linux source that is globally available to all as a buildable base.

OpenELA is a collaboration created and upheld by CIQ, Oracle, and SUSE.

ParanoidFactoid may be interested in this development.

 

I'd also like a larger character limit.

  • TBA kbin app from @developerjustin (iOS, kbin Only, in development) - I've had a chat with the dev of this as-yet-unnamed app, but it's not ready for testing yet.

Important note from frasassi@kbin.social

Am super open to any apps, code repos, communities, or info I'm missing as well as updates.

The amount of apps being developed for iOS / Android is getting really crazy now and new apps keep popping up every day. Updated list below:

  • Artemis (iOS, Android, kbin, lemmy): link
  • Memmy (iOS, lemmy): link
  • Mlem (iOS, lemmy): link
  • Morpha (iOS, lemmy): link
  • Thunder (iOS, Android, lemmy): link
  • Beyond (iOS, Android, lemmy): link
  • Limbo (iOS, Android, lemmy): link
  • Jerboa (Android, lemmy): link
  • Slide (Android, lemmy): link
  • Sync (Android, lemmy): link
  • Unnamed (kbin): link

Most apps on the list are lemmy apps, meaning they don't work with kbin. Artemis is specifically designed to work with kbin, not sure if or when any of the other ones will go in that direction or become interoperable as there are some challenges with the kbin API at the moment. Having said that, a new API is in the works (https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/pulls/357) so things should get better with time. Some of the apps are in very early stage of development so it may happen that they adjust OS availability and platform support.

What browser extensions do you use that you'd recommend to others?

Do you contribute to any FOSS browser extension projects?

Are there any non-FOSS extensions that you wish had a sufficient FOSS alternative?
