@echedeylr@catcatnya.com hi !! new mutual !! kinda amazed i wasn't already following u for some reason . hello !

poetry its 6am, the end of my day, and I saw posting 

there's so many things to do

a portal opened through which I can see my hopes and dreams. a wormhole distorted by its shape and curve, bending my light as I pass me through.

inspecting momentarily but in it for real, thoughts colonize me. propogating within I take my breath and without me as they leave.

@ckie Here's the whole thread as one post on another site, with a content warning on this post:

kitty just came, walked on the keyboard, took a piece of my food, ate it for a while in front of me and then went off :D

fyi, since many people don't know this exists:
Almost all computer screens made in the last decade support DDC/CI. (The Display Data Channel Command Interface).
You can use it to control stuff like the backlight brightness without fiddling with the awful screen buttons and OSD.

On Linux once you load the ddcci kernel module the screens appear in /sys/class/backlights and can be controlled like a laptop screen.

nixos +, shop talk~ 

nixos has utterly ruined my sense of scale.

> So I opened up Github today and was shocked to see that open PRs have somehow gone from nearly 4.6k to "just" 4k?!

4k open PRs doesn't feel big!! what the fuck! that's like. so many hours of people's time. and the issue counter is up to #212473!!

that comment was a bit motivating though, have reviewed a few PRs and building some more now 💖

Searchtodon meta, scraping related :boosts_ok_gay:​ 

I mentioned these concerns in the announcement thread but wanted to reiterate them here separately. social.pixie.town/@f0x/1096775

It does a lot of things right, and advertises itself as built with privacy and consent in mind.

However, while a user's search results are limited to content they could've otherwise seen pass by in their home timeline, all these toots are stored and indexed on the central Searchtodon server, indefinitely.

This means he technically has access to the combined timelines of all the users, and unlike public content scrapers **also followers-only and even DM posts** sent by **any user a Searchtodon user is following**.

There's only an opt-*out* mechanism based on setting your profile to be non-search-engine-indexible, or including a few specific hashtags.
Without opting out though **all your toots** will be stored if *any* of your followers use this tool.

While this for now remains just a technical possibility, with him stating he has no intent of misusing it, there is no way to guarantee this now or in the future, or when this data changes hands (sold off or hacked).

A services like this could have merit, but should absolutely be hosted by yourself or your own instance, since it already has control over all this data, meaning there's no extra party to trust.
