We've updated switching.software again!

For instance, we updated the description of @cryptpad, an easy to use yet powerful end-to-end encrypted replacement for #MS356, #GoogleDocs and unencrypted pads.

If you find outdated content, please look through the open issues before creating new ones: codeberg.org/swiso/website/iss

This seems exactly correct. I make computational art, and I write about the same technical topics that LLMs aren’t terrible at. But I genuinely don’t think I’m losing my audience to the latest gpt model. It’s not my skill as a coder or an artist that makes people care about my work, it’s the connection between the author and the audience that makes it work. I’m not stackoverflow, I’m a human being who shows herself in her work

#phosh 0.40 will correctly detect the #steamdeck's panel orientation and start up in landscape mode now! 🎉

Here's a photo of it running on #postmarketOS!

There are still a few rough edges with running pmOS, phosh, and the other UIs we support, on the Steam Deck... but it's still really nice to see one rough edge smoothed out.

pmOS on the Steam Deck, just like the blueberries in the photo, is not quite ready for consumption... 🤞 😄

Thank you @agx for your help and patience!

Danish government broadcaster DR is closing their profiles on X because the tone is too toxic and they can’t moderate replies to their posts. Would be great to see them in the Fediverse, but that is probably too much to ask for at this point.

Sometimes it takes decades for everyone to move over to the new thing, whatever it is, and instead we are stuck with supporting both the new and the old thing, seemingly forever.

In your opinion, what is the worst example of this?

“Microsoft admits no guarantee of sovereignty for UK policing data”

To be fair, there’s quite a lot of NHS-related blood test data not in the UK at the moment too, thanks to the recent unscheduled offsite backup…
