Implying engineers are normal

I wish mastodon made tags as easy as Tumblr did. I hate that they clutter up the post and that there's no autocomplete.

Not sure what your privacy/security needs are, but it would be much cleaner to just not allow federation if you don't want any info to leak.

Back in the day, Tesla was releasing some of its tech without patent licenses to help other EV makers catch up, to help the environment. Or at least that's what I remember from the PR.

Back then they wanted to blow their lead so electric cars would do better in general.

Is there one on matrix.org? I don't use Matrix much.

Maybe blahaj.zone's server has a Pokemon channel

Beeper is an instant messenger software that enables using a variety of chat services and protocols all from the same application. It was created in 2020 by Eric Migicovsky, Brad Murray and Tulir Asokan

On December 5, 2023, the company released Beeper Mini, an Android app that can send messages through Apple's iMessage instant messaging service.

Beeper Mini was downloaded more than 100,000 times within two days of launch. After the release, Apple repeatedly blocked Beeper Mini from sending messages through iMessage, and Beeper updated the app multiple times to circumvent Apple's blocks.[18] On December 21, 2023, Beeper issued its last update to Beeper Mini, which requires users to access an iOS or macOS device to enable the app to send messages through iMessage.[20]

That timeline is crazy. It's a chat app for years. It breaks into iMessage and gets crazy downloads. Then 16 days later they've given up. Four months later he sells the whole thing.

You are lucky in a way that OMV has a fantastic documentation suite. it is not too long, and I recommend reading it cover to cover, as well as the omv-plugins and omv-extras documentation, skipping over anything that's not interesting, but seeing that it's there for future reference.

OMV is interesting to me because it gives you a gui that lets you do many difficult or advanced things fairly quickly, but it is not always clear what all the options do, and things don't always work as expected. But the documentation will lead you well.

My advice is start slow, stick to the garden path (don't try anything custom or unusual), and frequently browse the forums.

The idea is that you judge each Kickstarter venture on its likelihood of doing that vs actually delivering.

Ugh I hate this. It could be a list but they've got AI or somebody that writes like AI expand each bullet into a useless paragraph.

I wonder how this is different from TextSniper?

For me on Android it's built into the app switching interface, similar to Alt-Tab on computer. Instead of selecting the app to bring it into focus, I can instead click something that lets me select text, and it opens it's own interface to do so.
