arctic. i think it’s been abandoned sadly

4get https://git.lolcat.ca/lolcat/4get https://4get.ca/instances

lots of public instances which tend to be very stable + it’s extremely easy to self host. in my experience it’s significantly better than every other proxy search engine

:(

4get is my new favorite

my understanding is that:

• nonbinary: identifies in any way that falls outside the woman/man gender paradigm. this includes but is not limited to agender people, and some other examples are genderfluid, bigender, and xenogender identities
• agender: lacks gender entirely or does not identify with any particular gender

so all agender people are nonbinary, but not all nonbinary people are agender

i think synapse is just kind of awful. i’m running a continuwuity (fork of conduwuit) server, and it’s been incredibly straightforward and painless compared to synapse

also colorado here. just rained where i’m at for first time in a couple weeks, still getting above 30c most days

Own a musket for home defense, since that’s what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. “What the devil?” As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he’s dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it’s smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, “Tally ho lads” the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.

yeah exactly. i find it really interesting how some people just can’t separate understanding a text from internally picturing it. it makes me wonder if there’s some legitimate difference in information processing, or if people who can visualize tend to associate understanding with imagining even if they’re actually unrelated

as a reader and writer with aphantasia, it’s literally never once mattered to me. i love a good fantasy and just don’t consider visualizing an obligate part of the experience. though i could definitely understand how it might be helpful

no i don’t think this is real. all his truth social posts are archived here, and it doesn’t seem to be listed

i like it. helps dilute all the depressing politics in my feed

i think it’s easy to forget that nazis have been in america for a while now https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1939_Nazi_rally_at_Madison_Square_Garden

yeah i love doom eternal and you’re completely right here. i think it’s definitely more noticeable at higher difficulties, but the game absolutely demands a certain rhythm

i don’t know it feels a little picky for you to only be happy with death or complete societal collapse

i tried this with a real version of gemini by editing its initial response with yes and asking it to continue. interesting response for sure

collabora doesn’t provide a frontend and isn’t meant to be a standalone document editor. the “ok” is expected behavior and indicates the server is functional. you need a different service that supports collabora integration, such as nextcloud. then you just enter the address of your server and it should work

that’s why i ran every request in a different chat session

i was curious so i tried it with chatgpt. here are the chat links:

• first expansion
• first summary
• second expansion
• second summary
• third expansion
• third summary
• fourth expansion
• fourth summary
• fifth expansion
• fifth summary
• sixth expansion
• sixth summary

overall it didn’t seem too bad. it sort of started focusing on the ecological and astrobiological side of the same topic but didn’t completely drift. to be honest, i think it would have done a lot worse if i made the prompt less specific. if it was just “summarize this text” and “expand on these points” i think chatgpt would get very distracted
