thanks for sharing this, it’s really encouraging to know that I don’t have to feel the connection immediately

come on, only one out of those four is a programming language

edit (begrudgingly): ok fine, half, but still

which DE?

Why isn’t this an app?

The main reason for this is that I wanted to create a voice assistant that is completely offline and doesn’t require any internet connection. This is because I wanted to ensure that the user’s privacy is protected and that the user’s data is not being sent to any third party servers.

Weird reasoning, why constrain the assistant to pi’s power and memory when you can use it for interaction and utilize another, more powerful server at home

I set it up last month. I’ve rarely experienced had such a smooth setup process. Was putting it off for years because I had assumed I would need at least several hours. Right now I have one on a server and then every device syncs to it (thought it would be easy to set up backups that way)

What about hedgedoc?

yes, all of that are very important as well. Sometimes I think about how exhausting it is to follow all these, and try my best to forget about the fear of not falling asleep when going to bed. I’ve noticed that overcoming that psychological “surrender” had a big impact on nights where I experience some problems - it’s important to keep calm and not spiral. But damn, it’s hard living like this.

one more thing: I have to limit the amount of stress inducing activities throughout a day/days so my brain is not in alert mode for too long. I have social anxiety so this mostly means spending enough time at home, not going to more than 2 different places during one day, etc.

My rules to have a higher chance of falling asleep at 11-12

• always wake up early, even after I went to bed late, otherwise I won’t be able to fall asleep on time
• no active brain work (studying, working) after 8pm
• no food after 7-8pm
• no ceiling lights after 8-9 pm, only yellow dim lamps
• no staying in bed if I couldn’t fall asleep. get up, go to another room, try again in 15-20 minutes

If you were able to set it up yourself I feel like nix learning curve shouldn’t be too hard for you. Especially since if you decide to go back, you’ll bring back lots of value - you can use nix package manager and home manager on any distro. I’m very interested to try them out but am a bit wary since I don’t have experience with nixos

Do you have a manual arch setup or did you use an install that configured it?

I stopped watching “last week tonight” after seeing some episodes about topics I was already informed about. I realized that the amount of truth-bending was borderline malicious.

not sure what to answer, I made clear in my comment that github is also problematic, discord is simply worse, therefore they’re not the same like the original commenter said. I’m hoping both of them will fuck up like reddit and twitter did and more people will make effort to move away from it.

like I said I agree, Discord is simply more terrible.

not at all the same situation. Git itself is not proprietary so all the projects can survive without GitHub if the need arises. Additionally, you don’t need an account to view the repository or its discussions. There is of course a walled garden for participation and it is an issue, however it doesn’t compare to discord, which is much, much worse.

Thank you for the explanation

generation for cellular data, not wifi. I liked this video that explains it

Funny how it left out model collapse

What are they talking about, self checkouts are great. It makes the shopping experience more fair for those with fewer items
