  It's finally hit me who Sofia Isella reminds me of and why she's so good. QUEENADREENA.

  one of my favourite terms is "delta". A delta is a set of changes against a baseline. If you write "jam" and then change it to "blue jam", the delta is "blue ". It's one of those words which saves a WHOLE bunch of other words. And good lord do I love me an opportunity to be concise.

  FRIENDS: I'm no longer the owner of dave.io - I've sold it. For a fairly considerable sum. Completely out of nowhere. I've migrated to syn.as for email (syn@). When I get round to it, will maintain two sites - syn.as for normies, and syn.horse for my lovely queer nerd shitpost wizard pals.

  Loving the fact that Helium failed (while the Things Network lives on). It's almost like anything backed by blockchain is a disaster waiting to happen. Anyway. It's great that it failed. Means that there are a ton of used RAK7248 devices on the market which make incredible Meshtastic nodes.

  Okay. I love everything about this. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DV9UCwGjweS

  It's time for a game of... 𝚆𝙷𝙰𝚃’𝚂 𝚃𝙷𝙰𝚃 𝙿𝙻𝙰𝚃𝙵𝙾𝚁𝙼 I'll be posting follow-ups which make it more obvious. Feel free to guess, and watch the post to find out if you're right! We'll start with the assembled unit. This is a Helium (now defunct) network miner which I'm repurposing.

  No bites? Fair enough! It's supposed to be hard from the outside. Let's strip it down a bit.

  Still nothing? Maybe if we show where I've removed plates and stickers on the side...

  because I am a walking disaster: so much for pagers or SMS, real ones send me messages with curl curl -d "message" https://ntfy.sh/syn

  Drop your most recent photo in the replies. Doesn't matter what it is. Just the last image you took. Go.

  Just a heads up; Github and Instagram/Threads/Facebook username is now synmux. I'll be rolling the same out to other services as I think of them. If you can't find synmux, check syndotas.

  So today I learned a thing the painful way. Join me in my pain. You want to pull a remote git update.It won't apply.You stash your changes then pull.You pop your stash.Wild CONFLICT appears!You fix the conflict.You add the fixed file.Wait. Git has held onto the stash. What?Maybe it just needs to be applied fully now the conflict is resolved.You git stash pop. And at that point, it destroys all of your work from the last four hours. Oh, and the stash is gone. Oh, and it's not in the reflo...

  I’ve been volunteering with the Trans Equity Coalition of New Jersey, where I’m leading DevOps on a project which stands to make a meaningful difference to the lives of trans folks in NJ. Unfortunately, our front-end lead had to step away from the project, so if you’re a front-end developer and would like to take the lead on our project, give me a yell. I can’t share specific details about the project due to NDAs. However, if it sounds interesting to you, it is a paid position - while it may n...

  We should have had a season 5. The season 4 ending was very good, and god damn if I don't love me a bleak ending. But Season 5 could have done something better. It could have shown what the Loops really are; the Hosts building organic bodies. Organic to synthetic to organic to synthetic and round and round and round.

  @lispi314@udongein.xyz @dalias@hachyderm.io I don't disagree with that. If solar, wind, geo, works for you where you are, rock on my friend. But they don't work everywhere. Nuclear does. And it can even be run at a small scale.

• Post #475618

  I can accept being wrong about many of my opinions, but the exception is nuclear power. I firmly believe that we either grow up as a species and embrace it as a pathway to fusion, or we collapse into resource wars and cease to exist as a species. Nothing matches it in energy density.

  Have written myself some Python. Works along the lines of correct horse battery staple but takes advantage of the fact that humans remember things which rhyme. Average entropy 68 bits compared to CHBS' 44 bits. Equally if not more memorable. Because you can't always paste from a password manager.

  Basically, the Greens took a radical stance of being FOR things, instead of AGAINST them. Shocking, I know.

  One of the really interesting developments in AI is GenUI. No. Not GenAI. GenUI. Generative User Interface. A model figuring out the task and your own patterns, and then building a user interface on the fly to allow you to do it most effectively. Not a lot of noise about it, but it's REALLY cool.

  It's kind of interesting how Mikrotik have a command /interface/bridge/set dhcp-snooping=yes and it's unclear to me exactly why it's not just named /interface/bridge/set fuck-everything-up=immediately

  "What do you even think about during sex?" Well. Fun fact. When I'm fucking someone, I'm trying to figure out the right resonant frequency to minimise effort. Muscle weakness from MS is a bitch; but PHYSICS! https://bsky.app/profile/dave.io/post/3mfmmtegp622o

  I will not be taking questions because it's just objectively correct

  Who let nRF chips get out of hand? The nRF54H2 clocks at 320 MHz and runs on board ML inferencing. What the shit?

  @Zendadaist@social.treehouse.systems True, but it's happening regardless. If anyone's sneaking a Palestinian flag in, it's our lad.

  @diffrentcolours@tech.lgbt I'm totally building a landing page for it and linking it from dave.io as a pi symbol in the bottom right https://youtu.be/pXPXMxsXT28

  I truly hope this young man, this model citizen, this actual hero, understands quite how many people across the planet were moistened by his actions. Especially because of his size. I KNOW fat. I AM a sandwich pirate. I know the anxiety about attracting a partner. I hope he has a Google Calendar.

  I am incredibly excited because I just managed to snag syn.horse in my ridiculous domain portfolio
