ofc i'm going to strap them together and spend cpu hours computing a mandelbrot for the entire night!
Nothing will ever be more relatable than this.
@lowqualityfacts Text appeared before the image - I truly though it might be GW Bush - delighted to see the happy doggo! I'd shake paws!
tech journalists not call everything remotely related to china as being "Created by china" challenge
@Li I am inclined not to trust/rely on any tech coming from and thus potentially influenced by a totalitarian tankie state
@soop i am not willing to trust any tech coming from a mega corporation, which could be influenced by state governments-
there is no real reason to trust/not this over UEFI, could have CIA backdoors, just as easily as MSS backdoors, also- nearly every device you own probably has components manufactured by or in china anyway; because its slightly cheaper (because they treat their workers poorly)
its also not really a tankie state, tankies like old mao-china or the USSR;
despite the name, "CCP" current day china is just unfetted capitalism;
people having worse working conditions and outsourcing to china for all manufacturing; is because it makes capitalist overlords more money, its literally "as the market decides" ..
its 4c cheaper to not pay your workers and use child labour to produce this part, so they do-
@soop @soop the reasons for China's culture of re-creating everything themselves, is partly because of being authoritarian- yes; however it is also partly the exact same reason the US government does it the other way around-
**they don't get the power and control over people, all the information is collected, but its given to the CIA not the MSS, and makes it harder to be evil to people**
Ironically depending on various factors, your information may be better with the state that's immediately got access to, and is "allowed to" hurt you. than it is with the one that doesn't; this isn't always the case, and prolly depends on your threat model (also, just use an actual secure service for communication like e.g; Signal)
but the real reason for tiktok ban and demonization of chinese tech is not because "it bad spy on you!" its because the spys dont work for the US government, which is- exactly the same reason why Chinese government bans US services.
TL;DR ..
the reason the USA services are banned in china, is because the spies and propagandists don't work for the chinese government;
and- the reason why the USA bans chinese services, is because the spies and propagandists don't work for the US government;
Today's Low Quality Ad is for the PlantPico Eden's Pond Terrarium. I've never read the Bible, but I believe this is a biblically accurate Garden of Eden. It even has Adam, shown here as a cat fishing, just as he is described in the book of Genesis.

A lot of fake Christians out here trying to tell me that Adam wasn't a cat. Cat Adam eating the forbidden fruit is where the saying "curiosity killed the cat" originated from.
@lowqualityfacts That's a bible I might read! I might even stop being an atheist for a cat religion!

Can't wait for Elon Musk to rewrite the complete human knowledge corpus using Grok.
It will be awesome!
Reddit Is suing AI company for scraping data to train their crap.
Good move Reddit!
@Kingu To a degree "good!"
But on the other hand... fuck Reddit?
Ever since they clamped down at least. It USED to be a community.
(And of course in many ways now it's majority bot and AI farming for karma.)
@Kingu Found out a bit more about it, and it seems to be of much more concern.
https://www.techdirt.com/2025/10/24/reddits-ai-scraping-lawsuit-is-an-attack-on-the-open-internet/
@Kingu but since most "Christians" I know don't actually read it, it's more like what does my church say.
But seriously, as non-Christian, I have read the Bible and studied the history behind its religion. Just about every Christian I've ever met is ignorant of what it says and their religion's history.
And this is true for all religions...
It appears only atheists actually read those books...
@Kingu considering how much studying is required in Neo-Pagan belief systems, I wouldn't say all.
It cannot contain any contradiction as it was written by God!! 😈
Holy fuck!!!
Is this for real or an AI thing?

made my day
The Servo project is starting to publish releases, version 0.0.1 is out today! 🚀
You can learn more about the goals and plans behind these releases in our blog: https://servo.org/blog/2025/10/20/servo-0.0.1-release/
@servo Really great to be able to download a Servo binary and try it out. Congratulations to the team for making this possible.
servoshell seems to handle my personal website perfectly.
There are quite a few gaps in the rendering of, e.g., https://ccwinch.org.uk/, but I'm not sure whether the Servo team are looking for that kind of feedback just yet.
@servo Will Servo let me build a program that does this:
I have a window canvas, and a buffer of HTML. I hand these to Servo, and it renders the HTML on to the canvas as best it can.
If an external resource is required, Servo does not fetch it itself; it asks me. If the user clicks on a link, Servo does not navigate to it; it tells me. If I tell Servo to not execute JavaScript, it DOES NOT EXECUTE *ANY* JAVASCRIPT.
In other words, can I treat Servo like, for example, librsvg?
@servo Will you improve the support for chinese? Many chinese characters are not displayed correctly.
No way there are smart beds with temperature controls and an app. Bro, we have got to stop putting SOCs inside every single household object. I just sleep in a normal bed and if I want to be cooler, I put a fan on. If I want to be warmer, I put a thicker duvet on. It’s that simple.
wanted: non-far-right maintained browsers that still support NPAPI, that aren't really weird about forks.
(i.e not pale-moon or anything from moonchild, unfortunately.)
May i ask what happened with moonchild?
I can't find any info about that...
@heredos https://transfem.social/notes/adbloc077xyg05bl
kinda annoying given its like the only browser that fckin still does NPAPI
irritated by the no king protests, the alt-rights are training to fight back!!!
Watch out!
Don't know what the No Kings protests are but you're too afraid to ask?
People are gathering to protest King, the professional wrestler from the fighting game series Tekken. Many people believe his fighting style gives players an unfair competitive advantage, so they want the character to be banned.
@lowqualityfacts Those are terrible people who don’t share our values because he’s the best char in the game!
@lowqualityfacts Phew. For a moment, I thought they were protesting about the King character from King of Fighters.
(Even i have to thank wikipedia for this. It's a tiktok trend, i don't have tiktok, sometimes i'm out of touch even with people my age...)
wrong!
it's the candy butler offering you some #candy to the sound of some sweet, sweet vocaloid electro swing!
Il y a un truc que je comprend pas.
Les Tacos Francais
Les restaurant de Tacos Francais ne cesse de se multiplier mais...
Je ne sais quoi penser...
@Kingu il y a un truc que je ne comprends pas.
Les ordinateurs qu'on fournit aux élèves français.
Ils sont sous windows mais on ne peut rien installer.
Pas un logiciel libre.
Je n'ai jamais entendu une personne dire que c'est bon.
Plusieurs personnes m'ont dit que c'est vraiment dégeu.
Je ne sais quoi penser...
@JerryWham Windows nous est envoyé dans la gueule. Les resto, on peut encore choisir... enfin, je pense :-)
je sais pas combien microsoft les paie, mais ça m'étonnerait que la cnil reste sans rien dire
i should be allowed to goon at work.
@microsoft@lea.pet upcycle windows 7 first
this is why i love cooking
Without any doc, how many of those language can you write an "hello world" in?
On my end, LISP is the only one.
rate the puppy's setup :3
@alina@girldick.gay what's the compositor? :3
@vox swayfx!
@alina@girldick.gay uuuuuuu kinda wanna try (likeee tbh ive been kinda envious of fancy stuff Hyprland can do in terms of eye candy but obv really dont wanna touch or interact with anything made by fascists in any way...)
@vox tbh the only compositor it makes sense to use right now is probably niri
it has lots of quality of life features like hyprland, features revolutionary scrolling window tiling and is used by like everyone i know
@alina@girldick.gay
im kinda interested in that one too but i rememeber it having some significant issues with xwayland and portal integration last time i looked at it?

Truth Social (If can be called social media)
@NaraMoore I forgot about this one :)
But technically, it is Mastodon.
Just with no-one to federate with....
@Kingu whereas there are also moral reasons i could pick facebook, it was so ugly i literally couldn't understand how to interface with it and gave up
The advantage of being untalented is that nobody think your art is AI
just want to make it really clear that if thermia ever refers to "god" or "lord" (as in "omg" / oml" / "oh god") it's talking about Hatsune Miku

So to recharge my phone I used to call a number and there was menu driven interface that would guide me.
You know like "Press one for menu 1 or 2 for menu 2".
A bit annoying but it do the job.
They replaced this system...
..With an AI agent.
Now I must talk with a robot who always say: "I did not understand, please repeat."
My phone is dead for 2 days now. I am unable to recharge it. 
Try pushing buttons like you used to and see if it works
