Inspector Gadget is a cautionary tale about a tech-obsessed gadget geek dealing with the consequences of buggy voice recognition software.
That said, if I ever do use a voice assistant, I'm changing the trigger phrase to "Go Go Gadget."

@vancha well unless libreoffice takes more than 3GB of ram to run...
@vancha Libre Office can be installed either from APT or PureOS store.
Form wont be perfect in a 5 inch screen, but it can run.

Ah, one more thing! Friday 7PM UTC we have a project jam in the Peers community, and everyone is welcome to join!
IRC: #peers on Freenode
Matrix: #peers:matrix.org
ForgeFed tasks you can help with: Check out the open issues and the forum topics, write feedback. Ask questions, to let us know what's missing in the docs. Hack on MCFI and Vervis. Look into initial ActivityPub support in existing forges such as #GitLab CI and #Gitea.
Also, just have nice chat and inspire each other :)

Aspen batch phones going out next will get an anodized chassis - look at those kill switches. Thank you for your patience as we incrementally ship through tens of thousands of Librem 5 phones over the coming months. Yes, we know you're excited, we are too and you will be impressed! #Purism #Librem5 #Linux
@rah @mewmew Sure, a mastodon instance can work as a standalone instance that does not federate.
And while that may serve some use cases. For there is no fun in that.
For me, what made me laugh with this post is that it a good "funny comment" to users that confuse the "Fediverse" with Mastodon, when the fediverse is more diverse than that: https://fediverse.party/
And the fediverse is not even ActivityPub alone, there is osatus and zot, and more
@mewmew you made my day!

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Mastodon, is in fact, ActivityPub/Mastodon, or as I've recently taken to calling it, ActivityPub plus Mastodon. Mastodon is not a social network unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning ActivityPub system made useful by the ActivityPub namespaces, vocabulary and non-normative sections comprising a full social network as defined by W3C Recommendation 23 January 2018.
Many computer users use a modified version of the ActivityPub social network every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of ActivityPub which is widely used today is often called "Mastodon", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the ActivityPub social network, developed by the W3C.
There really is a Mastodon, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the social network they use. Mastodon is the frontend: the program in the system that lets you interacts with the posts of all the people you follow. The frontend is an essential part of a social network, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete social network. Mastodon is normally used in combination with the ActivityPub social network: the whole system is basically ActivityPub with Mastodon added, or ActivityPub/Mastodon. All the so-called "Mastodon" distributions are really distributions of ActivityPub/Mastodon.
