  Eh, give em the clout they need to develop it further.

  Caution

  Holy smokes, what a ride. Fluxer is taking off much earlier than I’d expected.

  Over the past month, I’ve been working on a major refactor that touches every part of the codebase. The goal is to make Fluxer easier to develop, fully documented, and much simpler and lighter to self-host. This update also includes plenty of bug fixes and improvements, and it should help the Fluxer.app hosted deployment handle the current load far better.

  I know it’s hard to resist, but please wait a little longer before you dive deep into the current codebase or try to set up self-hosting. I’m aware the current stack isn’t very lightweight. In the next update, self-hosting should be straightforward, with a small set of services: Fluxer Server (TypeScript) using SQLite for persistence, Gateway (Erlang), and optionally LiveKit for voice and video.

  Self-hosted deployments won’t include any traces of Plutonium, and nothing is paywalled. You can still configure your own tiers and limits in the admin panel.

  Thanks for bearing with me. Development on Fluxer is about to get much easier, and the project will be made sustainable through community contributions and bounties for development work. Stay tuned – there’s not much left now.

  I thought I could take it a bit easier while shipping this stabilising update, but Discord’s recent announcement has changed things.

  As soon as the refactor is live, I’ll interact more actively and push updates to this repository more frequently. The remaining parts of the refactor are currently being worked on and are being tested by a small group of testers before I’m comfortable pushing everything publicly. After that, all work will happen openly in public.

  ❤️

  Btw, activitypub integration?

  The leaks confirming that they made their algorithms as addictive as possible on purpose and that they knew that it increases teen depression and suicide rate, they don’t count?

  It (barbed wire) also played a significant role in “settling” the American west by violently asserting individual ownership over land that was already occupied by Native Americans.

  The usual.

  Although there were also pre-installed bootkits already. Lenovo, Dell, i think HP too? Always laptops.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The most common bloatware we found on laptops and how to get rid of them⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Unwanted pre-installed software

  Windows…

  Uh, yeah. You didn’t get the news about them sharing with ICE?

  Right? My APU can run almost all games up to 2020 in 3k. Not high-fps but i’m not sensible to that.
  Except a few, like Valheim and Empyrion, which have 1 fps on the menu. Do they require some special instruction sets or something, that a APU can’t handle?

  Btw, ycombinator supports no activitypub? I think it would fit well.

  Well, it was bad at that too.

  Meanwhile, Commonmark… whoa, still 126 pages printed as pdf, with all edge cases. Though they do want to be well-specified.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Save as PDF⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  PDF is still shit, despite being open. Even a “minimal” viewer like mupdf has to carry a 100MB library with it. Interpreting them is arcane knowledge.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Save as PDF⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  A screenshot does that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Save as PDF⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Can we just create a standard that is content-centric and not representation-centric? We have screenshots nowadays for that.

  Lighweight Markups are a good start. Pack it in a zip to carry media and good.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Save as PDF⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  OOXML is over 600 pages, yes. With lots of contradictions and filker worsds btw. And a “standard” (with scandals abound) that has most of the format as proprietary extensions. And MS Office/365 doesn’t even keep to it, so other office suites never have as good support of the format as MS itself. Use ODF to save your documents. MS started their “standard” because of it anyway, fearing losing of their customer base (that bound them to Windows).

  Yep. If you have a Ring doorbell, replace it as quickly as possiuble. It will not only be used against you, but also against your neighbours.

  Far as i know, GPUs are more specialized on vector calculations. Some upscaling/frame generation techniques use AI hardware but that’s it.
