@circfruit there is already a search in announces!
searching in nomadnet pages would be useful indeed! hopefully it can be the same logic sometimes afterwards to also search into the conversations! that would be _extremely_ useful to me!.but... one step at a time! congrats on your current achievement! ;)
ctrl+f in a typical browser. The ctrl+f keybinding was already taken, so I settled on alt+f instead.

Uh-oh... I've screwed up managing my meds. It was a bit of a perfect storm that caused my system of redunant reminders to fail me.
I have one day of #ADHD meds left, and I run out of one of my other meds in less than a week.
Gotta call the pharmacy to tomorrow to get refills. I hope there isn't still a shortage, if so, I'm gonna have a bad time.
@Shae Erisson I can get them three months at a time, but my doctor won't let me renew my prescription until the literal day I'm supposed to run out.
I had a little bit of a backlog for a while because I kept forgetting to take them, but then there was a shortage and I burned through it.

Someone needs to invent a Pizza Pop that doesn't split at the seam in the microwave.
Yes, Pizza Pockets exist, but they are not the same.

Now that I've successfully made some small tweaks to my fork of #NomadNet. I'm working on adding a conspicuously absent feature to search the text of the open page in the browser for a user-supplied string.
I've been informed that this has been an oft-requested feature that nobody has currently found the time to work on. Considering I've never really worked on a large #Python project before, I'm happy with the progress I'm making so far.

I've made my first tweak to #NomadNet but have nowhere to submit a pull request.
Details: rns.recipes/forum/general/noma…
Update: I submitted my PR to the lead developer over LXMF. He's going to review it, but there are others queued ahead of mine.
I've really been enjoying nomadnet, but I've found some rough edges here and there. I know that Mark isn't in a position to be taking bug reports/feature reque...rns.recipes

Just saw a YouTube video where a guy took some wood ash, water, and a bunch of other common ingredients and made soap with it. That's cool and all, but then he said it was "chemical free".
Setting aside my typical argument about how a "chemical free" product is objective nonsense... my dude, you literally just made lye, which is a pretty harsh chemical.
This is one of the many reasons why the Titter-style microposting medium was probably a bad idea.
A group of people who are familiar with each other can use jargon terms in context, and add clarification when they know some participants are new to their specialist usage. When the potential reader is 'anyone', context collapse is inevitable.

So I just made a pull request to a buttplug.io repository under my government name. (That sounds extra wrong given the context.)
That's probably fiiiiine... right?

Okay, I've never really paid it much much mind because I'm typically neither a fan of interpreted nor dynamically-typed languages, but I have to admit that I've been having a lot of fun* playing with #Python.
* My definition of "fun" may differ from yours.
We're still here. Tornado risk is gone, but we've been wothout power for the past two hours, the server that hosts my usual account is down.
No word on when power will be restored, but we're otherwise okay.
It turns out you can cram so many simultaneous high volume data transfers over sshfs before the host just kind of falls over.
To be fair, I knew what I was doing was janky and should have known better.

Been looking for an iOS compatible #reticulum client for Katy. There seems to be exactly one (Retichat).
Unfortunatrly, it doesn't seem to work properly, and I can't prove it, but I think it's MitM-ing the messages.
Finally found another Android client that's working on an iOS port. I popped over to the project's GitHub page and what's the first thing I see? A .claude directory.
Welp, back to the drawing board.

♲ @kbond008@diaspora.glasswings.com:Former climate scientists from NOAA launched Climate.us after being fired during the Trump administration, aiming to provide accessible and reliable climate information to the public. This new platform serves as a successor to the now-defunct Climate.gov, ensuring continued access to vital climate data and resources.

One of the things I really love about #reticulum is its ability to seamlessly route traffic over literally any communication medium that can handle at least 5 bits per second. I'm also reminded of a YouTube video I watched a while ago where a guy was able to send data (at a very slow rate) over a literal tin can phone. Sadly, I can't find the link.
Anyhow, I think you can probably figure out what I am now legally and morally obligated to do.

@Hannes Deeken It wasn't regarding the network itself. I just stumbled across some nodes that were hosting general conspiracy nonsense.
Given how attractive the network would seem to doomsday preppers and so-called "free speech absolutists", I expected that sort of thing to be more prevelant.

Woke up this morning to a very large unexpected bill that needed to be addressed immediately. Managed to put the immediate fire out (or at least reduce it to a manageable simmer) but it took several hours of negotiating and it burnt essentially all of my spoons for the day. I should have just written the rest of the day off and done nothing else.
Katy and I decided to go run an errand anyway because we could turn it into a nice relaxing bike ride, which honestly sounded pretty appealing. Unfortunately, the errand went sideways and resulted in me having to spend another hour on the phone putting out another urgent fire.
I've done what needed to be done, but I know I'm going to pay a heavy price for overtaxing my system like that. The spoon tax is real.

Turns out I've been pruning my #BorgBackup archives wrong. There's a second step involved that actually deletes the "removed" data rather than just (presumably) removing the refrences to that data from the index. While I knew about this second step, I assumed that it was like how it works when you delete a file: the data technically remains intact, but gets overwritten by subsequent writes. Apparently I was wrong about this. I've been pruning—but not compacting—my daily backups monthly for years.
Long story short: I just spent an entire day compacting my backups. My backup storage just went from 71% full to 38%.
The change log might be an interesting read when upgrading.
IIRC, this was changed back then in 1.2.0 (for good reasons).

I have an unnamed family member who insists climate change is a hoax. A few days ago, we got an emergency alert about a tornado. I've lived through tornado watches in the past, but this was the first actual tornado I've ever encountered. He insists that this was fake news because he never saw it.
There was a funnel cloud sighting (with photos) on the major road that runs closest to his home.
I just didn't have it in me to argue.
In the late 90s, I remember everyone freaking out about Y2K. I knew how to write software, and I thought I understood the problem (and from a purely technical standpoint, I did). I wrote the whole thing off as people making a mountain of a molehill because surely no competent modern programmer would make a mistake like that, right? This opinion seemed validated when the year 2000 came and went without any apparent major incident.
Thing is, I was young, inexperienced, and naïve. I didn't understand a few things:
Now, with LLMs, we have a way to generate such code at scale, and I can't help but wonder about the price we're going to pay for it down the line, all in the name of shipping code on an arbitrary deadline.

@Justine Smithies @Codeberg I'm still having issues as of a few minutes ago. Fortunately I'm not trying to push anything critical.
Usually, I can resolve it by waiting an hour or so and trying again, but it's not a guarantee.
So I was able to commit to codeberg last night (technically this morning) at about 2AM. This made me strongly consider setting up a cron job that checks for un-pushed updates every hour or so and just automatically tries to push them if they haven't been.
This, unfortunately, would require me to leave an unencrypted copy of my private key on disk, which I'd rather not do. I know that openssl does this to facilitate TLS on my web site, but still...
Maybe I can create a special key just for codeberg and revoke it when this issue is resolved?
