A mastodon instance is not useful if that's not your goal lol

Yeah the social media built on an open protocol where data is interoperable across apps isn't quite isolated

FYI the CTO of Bluesky was an early dev of Secure ScuttleButt

I also don't think the average user gets the value of the protocol yet. Most of those users were looking for a new, more politically palatable home but with the same features as Twitter. The new generation of apps on the protocol will be vital in showing users what's possible. IMO the two most valuable features at a practical level are: - social graph portability, which might look like having an onboarding experience that bootstraps your community on that app - lexicon cross compatibility, i.e. your data from app A shows up in a contextually relevant spot in app B. Or app B writes records that show up in app A. This is pretty key to get right because it might confuse or anger users if they aren't condition to expect it. Once the average user groks these features though, I'd be surprised if they voluntarily switch back to the standard corpo apps that eventually exit to some company who tries to monetize the shit out of every feature.

Regardless that increases the barrier to entry for the median developer compared to e.g. Github. In any case, there are several other providers for PDSs coming up and infra is one of the hot areas in the atproto community

They seem to have deleted the PR now too. Here's the PR author on BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/ens0.me/post/3lpch5vsqit2v

I chatted with their team at some point; it's android

Krzysztof Penderecki is also on the list of revolutionary but unlistenable.

or you can look at the URL of the google maps embed in devtools then ask chatGPT either to give the location or just the latlong that you can subsequently google :) Chatgpt got the location wrong just 1/4 times

Vimium - navigate pages with vim input Metamask - browser based crypto wallet HoverZoom - mouse over images to expand them

Has anyone successfully run SteamDeck's version of arch on a pc for gaming+dev? I'm looking to do this but I'd love to hear anecdotes

Where are you getting the 10.1% figure?

A few hours from some expert consultants. Much cheaper than a dev team coding it up from scratch.

I was expecting constraint logic programming!

Booting with a live USB, mounting the root dir and doing a manual downgrade of libc could work

I'm ditching windows finally in favor of steam OS 3.0 on my desktop

It will the first couple of times, after that it just becomes a video!

Also shout out to KDE connect!

I intend to switch my custom built PC from windows to SteamOS 3.0. I haven't been a windows fan since I switched to Manjaro and eventually to Arch; the only reason I have it around is for gaming. But considering Proton is getting much better (and I'm gaming lesser), it seems like a pretty easy sell. In fact I think SteamOS has a lot of potential to bring gamers over to Linux; 3.0 uses arch with KDE so it's not really alien in terms of UI compared to windows. The biggest problem, as always, are GPU driver issues. But the steam handheld is already a successful unit that has seen some good traction, I wonder what a desktop version launched by steam would look like (they had the steam machines project but it looks pretty dead now).

I was surprised to see "covid" has a bunch of results from 2002 onwards; looks like CDC updates their dates weirdly

But it's also good to see regulatory bodies getting into the technical aspects of crypto scams

Seems to have changed a bit...

"As for our initial idea to make an age-guessing game, we have guessed right NaN% of the time. Not as good as we had expected ."

I was thinking how secure DApps built on Cosmos [0] would be. But I guess no matter the theoretical soundness, your DApp's security is as good as your L2 code. And messing around with L1s with no proper security foundation is a recipe for disaster. Re cosmos, if you guys aren't aware it's based on Tendermint [1] which is an advance in the field of consensus.

This comment adds no insight on the posted content and makes claims that simply aren't true. To elaborate: 1. To assert "web3 doesn't care about X" implies that there is a coordinated effort to not care about X by web3 which is false by definition. Even if it's commentary on the apparent centralization of web3 being supposed to be p2p, there are several different web3 providers (eth, poly, ipfs) with different incentives. They're not all bad. 2. There are rug pulls and pump-dumps all over the place. This is a consequence of the decentralized nature of crypto and just a pessimistic example of what's possible with web3 tech. There are several optimistic solutions that solve real world problems using web3 which have been deployed IRL.

This comment only adds a poorly informed opinion to this discussion, while not being very relevant.

What similarities did you find in good applications that you selected?

Ethereum PoW won't immediately disappear, and I'm sure bitcoin folk will be all too happy to grab those extra GPUs

I don't understand this argument, in fact I'd argue the opposite. Non-Apple devices are way cheaper, both for the device itself and considering the fact that one isn't paying a premium for each peripheral (headphones, freakin charger etc). And if you're referring to the interconnectedness of devices this is attainable with alternatives (even FOSS like KDE connect) albeit with some setup time.

Has anyone had luck with framework and openbsd? I'm having network card driver issues OOTB

This is probably the most accurate take on Modi I've seen on any forum, even one as high-quality as HN. It's almost incredible how the blatant corruption of Congress is forgotten; they were even using Cambridge Analytica (which probably added more fuel to the media trend [0]).

You say power users complain but the casual user does not (as a result of these features) - this sort of position ruins reddit's community as it suggests that reddit doesn't really care about the members who have contributed all kinds of content over the years and instead favors trying to get new members who are just marginally interested, or worse, just like endlessly scrolling through a timeline. This thread has mentions of several users that don't use reddit anymore (me included) and as reddit continues shoving monetization down the user's throat you'll see that those members will continue leaving until the platform is indistinguishable from the likes of Facebook, Digg, etc.
