by NovaVeles in welcomes on jul 20, 2023
Welcome to the base place! It can be a little quiet but as more people come along it will grow.
BTW, checked out your Deviant art via the link. KEEP THAT UP! I let my art skills lag when I hit my mid 20's and they never came back. Don't let that talent ...

I have been doing all kinds of things for years but only started lifting about 3 months ago, the initial results are impressive.

I wrote two articles on the issues with these LLM (AI) language models. No the most positive take. If you have a little while it is about 9,000 words between the two. I thought it would only be these two but I have a third and final part in the works about ...

Less is More - Jason Hilkel.
A book all about a possible future of Degrowth in the economy.

What I want from the internet - Artcile
by NovaVeles in general on may 8, 2023
Just came across this article about how we need to make the internet large again, not just 6 sites that we are locked into. I think this forum is a good example of this idea in action.

Wait Venture Bro's is still going? I kind of lost track around 2010 and have just looked up the wiki to see that they have been very slowly pumping these out! There is a lot to catch up on!

Absolutely, I feel it particularly hard as my daily runner is a Core 2 Duo laptop from 2009. When running on slower machines it becomes apparent just how bloated a lot of modern web has become.

It is the ultimate 1st word problem but don''t you just hate that. You get the perfect pic setup and it clashes with UI elements.

The saving grace of Reddit is that it is still compartmentalized to some degree. r/Programming is just programming if you will, but within it the quality can vary wildly! More they are pushing for the endless feed just like every other social media. ...

<quoting=dimes postID=877 threadID=121>i think its also worth mentioning that a lot of average people simply aren't navigating to news sites anymore; unless its following a link from a facebook feed or similar - where we know that reliability isn't really ...

Just to give some love to my favorite Distro Trisquel and their default desktop. It is my once every 2 year reminder to reinstall my system.
what email providers do you use/suggest?
by NovaVeles in software on apr 8, 2023
Just to throw another +1 on fastmail. Incredibly reliable, works as it should. Especially the web interface. 10 out of 10.
Video Games & Time
by NovaVeles in video games on mar 4, 2023
