#Bloomscrolling #flowers #love #photography
Not the best flower arrangement but I got a lovely bouquet today and I didn't want any flower to feel left out so they're all sharing this space till I get time and sort it into something prettier. In the picture is my vase with 3 roses, bamboo plant, three kinds of daisies, aster flowers. Also the painting of a woman by the Mother(Mirra Alfassa), Don't hear evil little monk tiny figurine, Part of my chess box, and table calendar.

If I see "I asked ChatGTP..." in an article I'm immediately closing it, fyi. Doesn't matter how interested I am in the topic of the article, that's a massive "I'm wasting my time here" from me

One of the talks at #DitchSummit is how we can make use of AI such as ChatGPT, but by asking questions to multiple AI and a normal search engine, comparing and contrasting results and applying critical thinking to these results.

Asking one source is not going to cut it as far as doing good research is concerned. A lot of good ideas on this topic.

This doesn't really seem like something that needed to be done. Thunderbird already has too many features. It needs less, not more. A bunch of stuff in the email client part is also badly designed. That needs fixing, preferably upstream, but I wouldn't think of that as feature enhancement.

In linux it doesnt have a tray with mail count that sends a notification when new mail arrives. It's a pretty basic feature nowadays to be honest. It didn't even have the auto fetch every 30 minutes when I switched!?!! Like Thunderbird expected me to click on the sync button every 30 minutes. That's not how people use email I'm sorry.

I agree that all those calendar and contacts features are completely unnecessary and that it could integrate with other tools instead, but the main use is lacking.

I use TB under Debian and there is a tray icon and an arrival notification, poll time of maybe a few minutes, seems fine. Showing the # of messages in the tray icon could be sort of handy I guess, though I had never thought about it before and didn't miss it. Basic features = shut off the "email contains remote content" banner or "spam filter thinks this email is spam" (I can recognize spam for myself). I just want a preference that permanently disables remote content without throwing banners at me. And eliminate the client side spam filtering completely since I have that on the server side, and can manually flag any that gets through. Plus various other stuff like that. Yes, get rid of the calendar and contacts stuff. Biggest feature needing significant code changes: make message search not suck.

[a] Fork That Promises Better Features


Have they released anything yet? Or are we at the project stage, where they're yelling at their CLI confused about git?

Promises are cheap, releases matter. I mean I could announce a project called Betterfox, promising to bring better features to a well-known browser. But in reality I'm by myself, overly ambitious, and going to leave the github page abandoned after the initial commit.

#OTD in 1904.

The first of Virginia Woolf's published writings, "Haworth, November 1904", an account of a visit to the Brontë family home, appears anonymously in a women's supplement to a clerical journal, The Guardian. (A book review written later has appeared in the same journal a week earlier.)

#books #literature

This is the draft of the essay, which appeared in The Guardian in December 1904. Woolf opens by briefly questioning the legitimacy of literary tourism, and decides that her visit to Haworth is acceptable because it added to her understanding of the Brontës’ books. After walking the West Yorkshire moors in the bleak November weather and spending time in the family’s home and church, Woolf concludes that “however harsh the struggle, Emily, and Charlotte above all, fought to victory.” via @NYPL https://www.nypl.org/events/exhibitions/galleries/section-1-early-years/item/13112#:~:text=%E2%80%9CHaworth%3A%20November%2C%201904%E2%80%9C%20essay%20draft&text=Woolf's%20first%20published%20essay%20is,The%20Guardian%20in%20December%201904.

Thou hast let billionaires play god, and now they’re treating thy government like a game of Twister—one hand on greed, one foot on corruption, and a fucking faceplant right into dystopia.

ArduinoLibs bot is one year old 🎉

🐘 fosstodon.org/@arduinoLibs
🟦 bsky.app/profile/arduinolibs.b…

the fediverse account didn't grow much though 🤔

is there any bot owner out there that could help me understand that gap?

possible causes I can think of:

- bot filtering/throttling is stronger on fediverse than on bluesky
- account landed in a federated blacklist
- server landed in a federated blacklist
- fediverse community doesn't care about that kind of content

Installed #Kubuntu 24.10 over a UAlinux 20.04 yesterday for reasons. Install went ok, maybe 15 minutes. Then came the problems. The laptop's HDMI port wasn't recognized, so no external screen. The drivers for the graphics card weren't installed, not even Nouveau. Customization settings are not preserved, this is like a bug from 2011. The mouse doesn't work in games. It's a shambles. How is such trash meant to ever replace Windoze?
