Well, today&#39;s going to be fun. Electric company has a planned power outage for five hours, to deal with trees versus power lines. No telly for me! (Hope the mobile masts¹ are on an independent circuit.) Ideal test for #meshtastic if I didn&#39;t have the only node in a dozen mile radius 🙄 ¹Cellphone towers.

@gamesthatwerent Great seeing you at Zzap Live! even if it was only for 30 seconds. Blame Mike for keeping me signing :) I&#39;ll be back next year and am at Kickstart 3 in August if you want to pick up where we left off.

Oh yes, big thing about Google enshittifying the web even further. The main link cited is techcrunch which says &quot;something has gone wrong&quot; because I have an ad blocker. Well, yes. Quite. Just not in the way you mean.

Tim Berners-Lee&#39;s Pods over #meshtastic. That&#39;ll take our agency back, right? Just give it a decade or so.

Everywhere I look... There&#39;s a meshtastic app that someone&#39;s now using AI to develop. There&#39;s someone I know personally working on another app and now using AI. On a retro games group someone uses AI to make a musical tribute to the chiptune makers back in the day. A *tribute*??? I grew up with friends who learnt coding the hard way. At the time the *only* way: swap tricks, read magazines and books, figure how others did it, figure it out ourselves. We *learnt*.

RE: https://mastodon.cloud/@slashdot/116621803767066415 I&#39;m on a local UFO (FB) group and it&#39;s amazing how little traction the first batch got. Obvious distraction is obvious.

Just found out (according to Peter Theil) that critics of AI are &quot;legionnaires of the antichrist&quot;¹ Hello fellow legionnaires! ¹Thank John Oliver (again).
