Elfi, known bug enjoyer @elfi@pixie.town

Alright I learned that Bitwarden allows LLM generated code and KeePassXC does the same now, can you give me any alternatives, I'm not too into having my passwords protected by an infected codebase.

if you use keepassxc, do not update past the current latest update (2.7.10) as future updates will include LLM generated code, which is a utterly horrible idea for an application that manages people's passwords

the maintainers approve of this and don't see the horrible security implications in allowing it

I added a new deep freezer to my sister's #ThroneWishlist because we're now worried about putting food in it. That freezer is twenty years old anyway, so it was working up to its lifespan anyway.

Sister's food goal: 160/500

Hey, Seattle retro tech folks! If you see someone offloading a bunch of CPS2/Naomi/Neo Geo PCBs, please reach out to Gamecenter down in Kent - they just had their truck hijacked and a bunch of boards, original marquees, and other parts stolen from them https://www.kiro7.com/news/local/game-over-25k-tech-stolen-kent-arcade/FIVDROI4QZDBTE6FSZWAG3EWXU/

Does anyone have any recommendations for a Mastodon app on iOS?

I've tried the official app but I'm having scroll issues among other UX quirks that aggravate me.

Bonus points if I can post without paying an IAP.

I did a thing.

I’ve had a long-standing love of stickers on laptops. I know a lot of you do too! So I built a site to highlight them. At Hope next week I’ll take as many pics (with permission) of the best stickered laptops I can find and post them.

It’s always sad when a laptop gets upgraded, the old one tossed, and that sticker canvas is lost. I’m trying to preserve it.

Please submit pics of your laptops so I can “seed the tip jar,” as it were.

I'm looking for a new job in game development. I'm a software developer with experience working with artists and musicians. I can design and build systems, and can also do simple 3D+animations and music.
Any leads would be appreciated.

#AskFedi: Long shot, but: anyone have an old Trust Soundforce1200 speaker set? The ~2000 era beige boxes with the wooden subwoofer. It doesn't need to function perfectly or even necessarily be complete. I need replacement parts for mine...

(Yes I know it's old, no I haven't found any speaker set that can replace it to my standards, no anything Logitech isn't an option. If you know this specific speaker set and the unique sound it produces, and have a recommendation for a suitable modern replacement, it would be very welcome though! But no generic purchasing recommendations please.)

Advice for community managers:

Use the Olivia Hill rule.

It's surprisingly easy to enforce:

Fascists get really upset and will talk to you about why the rule is bad.

You then ban them.

That's it, that's all the work it takes!

I only have a two hours to get $20 together to get to my appointment and cover the fees. 😭🫰🏾

Hypothetically: if there was a service offering after-market open-hardware sodium-ion batteries for old laptops at a reasonable price, would you be interested in buying them and, if so, how many? I'm talking about old Thinkpads and such. Information about the specific devices would also be useful.
