  • Checking....what's the status for FOSS agentic AI models with skills?

    Jump

  • If you are on linux, and want ai assisted stuff like you mentioned there has been this for a while: https://github.com/qwersyk/Newelle

    ( or the weeb version if you prefer: https://wiki.nyarchlinux.moe/nyarchassistant/ )

    and it can use locally run models. But have realistic expectations. If you want it to work well, you need a beefy GPU, a lot of RAM and swap. The "intelligence" is kind of limited if you run low spec models, to the point of it maybe being utterly useless.

  • Looking for a Caldav tool to sum the time used per day

    Jump

  • I searched around a bit and found https://github.com/dreiekk/calcdav

    not sure if it still works, last commit was 3 years ago (on the other hand, there was no AI vibecoding back then, so thats a plus), but it looks like it might do exactly what you're looking for

  • machine-id change on hibernate

    Jump

  • there’s prep and glam I like to do or tend to set up but that I would prefer to explicitly set up instead of it being done automaticall

    Back in the x11 days I had a script that would take a config file and open multiple programs in a specified arrangement across my displays.

    I used KDE activities by task and had such a config for each task. KDE activities can run arbitrary scripts on being started. So when I opened the "work" activity for example, all my work apps would open up in my preffered arrangement. When I opened the gaming activity, steam would start on my side monitor and the main monitor had all of the other gaming related shortcuts on it etc.

    Together with the preload daemon or a custom vm-touch (i switched from one to the other at some point) it was blazingly fast and very comfy. (Again, I overprovisioned my RAM so I used it by filling it post boot with a cache of pages that my apps load on startup)

    Then wayland came and broke it and I didn't bother to fix it yet.

    But everybody has their own prefered workflows, I'm not saying one is better than the other. Just wanted to share.

  • machine-id change on hibernate

    Jump

  • Sorry, I can't help you with your problem.

    But just in case you were serious about "We don’t shutdown.":

    In my case - clean boot takes 25s. Waking up from hibernation takes over 60 seconds, because of huge RAM. And sleep is broken due to some USB interface shenanigans. Soooo yeaaah, I fully shut down and power on every day.

    Oh and btw. by default windows doesn't do a full shutdown, but a sneaky hibernate. You can see that for example if you "shutdown" windows (not reboot.), then power on the pc and boot into linux - trying to access the windows drive, you will see an error that windows "didn't shutdown properly" and is still claiming access to the windows drive. Because it's hibernating and changing content on the drive might break the wakeup.

  • I think people are sleeping on GLM.

    Tried it out recently and I like the results a lot so far.

    GLM4.5 and 4.7 was good already, now they released 5 and 5.1 https://github.com/zai-org/GLM-5

    It says it's for vibecoding but I use it like I would use chatgpt and it gives useable ansers to all of my varied questions. (ofc. you always have to check for correctness, even if it's correct most of the time, which I do cause I'm paranoid)

    I guess the only downside is how frigging huge it is.

  • Session is shutting down in 90 days if STF fails to reach its funding goals.

    Jump

  • We’re not.

    Huh? You linked me an article where server cost is the lions share of signal operation.

    Most users doesn’t even donate 1€ when using free messengers.

    How does signal operate then.

    They don’t offer ANY “nice-to-have” features

    If they don't have high server costs, unlike the example from the article you brought up, they should hire cheaper software engineers from a different country or scale down development and have a longer runway.

    Like I said - them having this problem is probably due to poor planing.

  • Session is shutting down in 90 days if STF fails to reach its funding goals.

    Jump

  • Well, when talking about server costs, Threema somehow has been running on a 5€ lifetime license and business customer subscribtions for over a decade.

    While briar and simplex are peer to peer and have nearly no ops costs.

    Sure, it can be made to be very expensive, but I'm arguing that doing so is a business/design decision.

    Servers can help improve the UX, but are expensive. Threema for example, only stores media on their servers temporarely, so they have way lower storage cost with a small tradeoff in userfriendlyness (of having to migratethe old media files you want to keep when you get a new phone). And so on.

    If your nonprofit only has 65k, don't hire multiple devs and provide nice-to-have features that lead to high ops expenses in servers and storage. It's called minimal viable prpduct for a reason.

  • Sounds like bad planning. There are like 3 other e2ee messengers that are open source and have enough funding to operate for years without doing appeal-to-emotion dona-... extortion campaigns

    how do you fit guitar practice into a dev schedule?

    Jump

  • You're weak!

    WTF do you mean your hands are tired? Pathetic!

    I do 8 hours of dev, then 2 hours of outdoor rockclimbing and 6 hours of intense competitive video gaming every day and I can still play guitar afterwards.

    Go eat some protein and build up some stamina.
