  I've loved #Debian for years. Decades, really. The main reason for that is it's always seemed, to me, to be the best place to actually control and own your own computer. That trust is gone for me. We can talk responsible, not responsible, whatever. The fact is, LLMs are trained on the hard work of billions of people, and put into a blender and sold back to us. It's more separation of workers from the fruit of their labors, to the profit of capitalists. That's not even getting...

  Before my recent trip to Austin for work, I set up #pihole and WireGuard for a #VPN on a #Raspberrypi 3 I had sitting around. So I was able to connect to my #Jellyfin server and stream some shows from my hotel. (I unplugged the HDMI cable on their STB and pulled it into my laptop). Also, was able to use a VPN with pi-hole on my phone while I was out and about. Friends, it's one of the simplest and most impactful things I've done with my #homelab so far. Also gave me access to my music....

  Still no 100% clear option for me to avoid #AI with #Debian's decision. I had read that @gentoo@fosstodon.org had an anit-AI stance. But I just read the entire thing: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Project:Council/AI_policy It's the first OS statement I've read that specifically mentions the ethical issues. That makes me happy. No idea what will happen with the linux kernel in #Gentoo, but for the moment it seems like a legit option. Time will tell

  Know what computer I've used - and loved! - that isn't taking #AI slop? The Commodore 64. Maybe I'll switch my #debian laptop to one of the new ones.

  Results aren’t as bad as in thought. Still not great but I didn’t better than I feared #cluesbysam https://cluesbysam.com/

  At the age of 50 I'm just now getting on medicine for ADD. I've suspected I had this for years now. Both my boys are ADHD and, in learning more about it, my wife and I both have said "You know who else this sounds like, right?" But if you were an A student in the 90s, no school issues, no real discipline problems, no one looked at you as possibly needing help. That may sound bitter, but I promise I'm not upset. I get it. I didn't think I had anything going on, either...

  Any suggestions for a #privacy respecting #health #app? Specifically I'd like something where I can easily log things like blood pressure and blood sugar readings so I can keep up with trends and such. I can always put it into a private note, but was hoping for something that would make it easier

  I updated my #python library that downloads #audiobooks from Libro.fm Besides updating things so it works with the API once more, I modified it to skip books that have already been downloaded. Yes, this is an obvious change. I also added a `--force` option to redownload everything if you want to. https://codeberg.org/bfordham/librofm
