You all love the @PINE64 #Pinephone, right?

You also like #LoRa, right?

If so, you'll love this : LoRa on the Pinephone!

YES, thanks to the LoRa backplate, you can send and receive LoRa messages on the Pinephone!

This is easily one of the most #animeirl moments in the entire anime. #retrocomputing #lain

did you know that #mastodon web UI has OCR built in? so when you are posting screenshots of text, a transcription of the text to put into a description of the image is literally one click away. when uploading image into a toot, just klik 'Edit' and then 'detect text from picture'. that's it.

please help sighted people. it's costing you two extra clicks.

Trump's social network (Truth Social) is now open source due to pressure from the maintainers of Mastodon.

I have now mirrored the code on Codeberg and GitHub to keep track of changes, ease public examination, and ensure a copy stays public.

I have also generated a basic diff between Mastodon v3.4.1 and Truth Social's latest code. https://codeberg.org/TruthSocial/diffs/

Cosmic beings looking at the earth:

"So these meatsacks figured out how to turn other matter (including other meatsacks) into more of the same type of meatsacks. What's the big deal? Some of them used this ability to build counting-machines, and then used those machines to simulate a subset of meat's properties. They celebrate making their machines more meatlike."

"Can these meatsacks do *anything* worthwhile, or are they just going to keep making meat? What's so special about meat?"

(inspired by "They're Made out of Meat": https://www.mit.edu/people/dpolicar/writing/prose/text/thinkingMeat.html)

I just want you guys to know that the multiple *years* I've had my music on Spotify and iTunes have still made me less money than the first two weeks of the same albums on Bandcamp.
