No, forcing everyone to use those Manifest v3 extensions definitely had nothing to do with getting rid of ad blockers, lol 🤣

uBO and Firefox still work for me though, although I'm not sure which extension blocks the ads for me: uBO or Enhancer for YT🤔

Yet again, I love books (linear), I like games (should offer multiple choice, ideally infinite) — what's the comprimise for story-driven games? That's the area I think LLMs should be applied to — go to the city, have it your way, live your boring NN-generated life, or… you can find your fate and live through the life the script writer had prepared for you.

>Maybe I'm just old and crusty and out of touch, or it could just be...
Sure, same holds for me. But I'm more optimistic about it, like: Whoah, it's now possible for me to see beyond the tunnel I'm allowed to operate in, maybe there would be a way for me to walk all the streets and live my own life?

> In Stray for example it would be pretty hard to get lost, because there's really only one way to go, but there are definitely games where I've gotten lost immediately.
Exactly! Having too much freedom so you might get lost isn't what most would expect from a cute cat (pushing objects from shelves) game 😹
I think we just didn't have such luxury with early Tomb Raider games — caverns are hardly a city, but we had tech limitations to justify it 🤷

@stereo I have managed to make Nitter work though. Mostly by using native libraries, nim modules had issues with bit shift operations not working the way they are supposed to. That was a cheat, but that's the main difference between legacy architectures and current ones — with former ones you can exploit the past porting efforts, with current ones you can do a lot of work yourself, but can get help from community 😄

@stereo Unfortunately, Go on PPC is a no go — there is no reference toolchain, and although I have managed to build gcc-go, most modules don't support this arch. Rust works, but, of course, with a lot of caveats. I'm in the process of getting libreddit work, it has ring crate among its dependencies — cryptography is of course tricky with lots of low-level stuff, I have managed to make IBM's port to ppc64 build, but even tests don't pass, something's to do with endian-ness I guess 😩

@stereo Try gmid — this one should be pure C and it worked better than Molly for me, with Molly I ran into some issues with IPv4 being a port redirect from other host and having a native IPv6 address (over a tunnel, it's complicated 🤣)
I ended up using an old ARM machine for my Gemini stuff with gmid, and PPC one for the rest, like my Pleroma instance (erlang still works) and few others.
I'm a huge fan of marginal CPU architectures, I wish I could have a RISCV machine to experiment on 😄

Don't do that vile stuff, get yourself some proper vodka! Matrioshka! Balalaika! 🐻
Sorry, I didn't have a proper matrioshka doll to complete the composition, had to resort to a Wikipedia page for .mkv as a replacement… 🤔
Wait, I think I might have one in the storage room, but it's in everyone's interest not to see it, has probably mutated beyond salvation ☢️

@Radical_EgoCom@kolektiva.social Actually happens a lot more often than one's inclined to think. I was once contacted after a few months since the original interview — and they genuinely wanted to hire me, but were working hard on major release, everyone was too busy to accommodate a new employee. This should have been a 🇨🇳 for me, but I was too young (well, not really) and naive.

@stereo I can't even build the libc crate on 32-bit PowerPC, something's defined two times, obviously the preprocessor condition is broken somewhere, but I'm too lazy to fix.
But 32-bit PowerPC on Linux MUSL is considered a tier 3 arch if not further below so no surprises here. I'm not sure if RISCV support is any good, but it's more "current" and still alive, hopfully there's more interest in fixing issues with that 😅

@PonyPanda That's not cute, you know. You can achieve so much more if you have more diverse arsenal. Some might have heads that are really hard to cave in, but are absolutely defenseless to kind words and poisoned candy 😏
@sysrq @mimorinka

@PonyPanda Well, it was another joke, but usually people don't want to give others weird ideas about themselves, even if they are people whom they don't know and see for the first and last time. Some grow up and realize it's bullshit, some don't 🤷
@sysrq @mimorinka

@PonyPanda
I'm not really disputing that, at least not with this comment. I do have a few thoughts on that, but this one is what it is — a joke about China profiting from cheap vodka in plastic bottles 🤷
@DotardTed

@PonyPanda
But aren't you ashamed of others seeing you browse Fedi in broad daylight? Not even a tiny bit?

@Chronomyst@beige.party Move the fence if there is one or a wall. Do it at night time, but don't be shy in terms of how much land you claim. When your neighbor wakes up in the morning and realizes what has happened, he/she will be outraged. Make him/her an offer to resolve this by you rolling back a little, but only a little. When he refuses, accuse him of not wanting to compromise 😏

@theorytoe I have to re-watch Rolling Girls!
I don't even know why I like it, it's a girlish "coming of age" adventure and the first episodes looked very silly to me, but I not only didn't drop it that time, but watched it again at least a couple of times 😅

@theorytoe
Void is one of the most sane distros out there, it does have a steep learning curve: not a lot of distros have runit and none other has xbps, but once you get comfortable with it, it's extremely rare when things go wrong. Sometimes I'm like: "Oh, let's update, I'm up for some computer-related autism",— but no, everything went smooth and works as expected😔
"Firefox segfaults, let's roll back!" — nope, it's a hardware-related problem 😅
@CatLord @VBurner

@thor Nowadays I can't play video games at all, online games are too boring and games complex story-driven games do weird shit to me and I can't play them like they are supposed to be played: social.librem.one/web/statuses
