  I want access to good art produced by good artists in any style. Not to reproduce anything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Best way to prevent Bambu A1 mini from updating firmware?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So far what I found:

  My router has an option to block internet access by MAC address, which is even better than by IP.

  LAN mode works via wi-fi, so no cables or flash drives needed.

  Also Orca slicer is almost the same as Bambu studio, even supports printer’s camera. Feels even snappier without an account and integration with “store” or whatever that online stuff is called.

  Got more interested in trying out VPN now, so I probably could observe prints from a laptop in any location.

  Not as bad as I feared, not as good as it could be.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you not feel overwhelmed using Mastodon?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It is complicated. I follow almost 500 accounts often producing 50 toots per hour. Nobody should spend that much time to catch up with all. My coping tools are:

  • Making lists, including one for important accounts I don’t want to miss. Sadly I cant find a way to get notifications for those.

  • Resisting FOMO. Remember, mastodon is people-centric, not content-centric like Lemmy. I don’t try to use it as news source or catch all hashtags I care of. Just treat it as a space to casually look what people are talking about.

  In general I think that backlash against algorithms went the wrong way. We poured the baby with the water. We should have resisted their harmful use, lack of transparency and user control, rather than the very idea. Controlling what content shows up first and setting your priorities is a good thing. Users should have this power, not corporations and not even admins.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Building A Generator That Runs Off Hose Power⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Given most of water comes from public facilities it is structurally just unsanctioned and ineffective transmission of power from shared pump to private generator. Would be a simple energy theft if you didnt pay for water. A waste of water and energy anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First Look: Loops, by Pixelfed⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  not sure about peertube audience size, but afaik it does have a serious subsystem of resource sharing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨First Look: Loops, by Pixelfed⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If I understand it right… it will be much more costly to host videocentric platform than other types of content. A serious proposal for sharing the burden of hosting will likely be vital - through funding or decentralized storage/processing. Havent heard about that yet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do the majority of women still take their partner's last name?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  One other reason I imagine is to establish a single family name, especially with children in mind. I’m not sure it actually works better than a double damily name, but it probably seems so to some.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help with training plan⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just my emotional reaction: I am amateurishly selfhosting for more than ten years with only basic linux knowledge. This training is probably more focused on pros and general web development than self hosting. In my imaginary perfect world self hosting would be a common skillset taught in a secondary school.

  They forgot the lifespan of the monkey, those thought experimenters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Static site generator for an idiot who doesn't want to learn a new templating language just to have a blog?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Technically Grav is not a static site generator, it is just a flat file cms. It means there is no need to generate all the files of website and upload them to server each time you write a post. I have no idea why people like static sites for blogging.

  Because how could you sell contact data to google and apple if they already have it?
