Look, I'm not aiming to be a dick about this, but... add Pixelfed to the list of fedi apps with absolutely zero chance of supplanting its corporate counterpart.

Do you have any idea how many taps it took me to *find my own fucking profile settings*? Why is there even a way for a user to see their own profile *at all* without access to settings?

- and since posts are editable in a browser, why in the name of fuck not in the app!?

(also, I still can't edit the pics...)

OK, what!? Pics looked right when sharing but now they're rotated every which way - and it doesn't even seem like I can edit the post in the Pixelfed app...

Imma leave it up to come back to it later. Sorry if it makes anyone nauseous 😂

A Browser-Based Local LLM Chatbot

To help users on the app, we can index our #Docusaurus docs to power a local search. It started out as a simple fancy #autocomplete.

I've since been testing #WebLLM to bring a fully #offline, #privacy-first conversational experience powered by #WebGPU, letting users pick and download a #model directly in their browser.

Lol that's just me clicking around like a madman to find new industry folk to follow. They are not very power user friendly

The picture shows a warning issued by LinkedIn that my account might be compromised by third party tools or browser extensions.

In other totally meaningless disruptive changes, #tmux now defaults to capturing mouse events. I haven't found a single useful thing it does with them yet, however it managed to break my habits when copying things from terminal (now I need to hold shift) and to break mouse wheel scrolling in less. But I'm sure it's a feature!

So now I need to add:

set -g mouse off

to ~/.tmux.conf on every single server and container I use.

[demo] https://files.octade.net/

I drafted a prototype for a PHP server application that automatically hashes and signs files and presents visitors with verification archives containing digital signatures for offline verification. The site allows readers to view, download, hash, and verify signatures of files. Since I occasionally like to publish puzzles and bits of cryptology, I just had to make this to scratch the old itch.

The neat thing about this design is that the current version has zero JavaScript. It uses CSS3 hacks with anchors and URL probing to emulate JavaScript and AJAX functionalities for modal dialogs to present server-side JSON data as HTML text.

When I upload files or documents to the server, the interface automatically presents them to the user in a grid. So now all I have to do is upload files and documents and the server generates the site.

The reader can then click buttons to hash, sign, view, verify, and download files.

GnuPG and OpenSSL Signatures are generated automatically on user demand. The site visitors can download these signatures and the public keys to verify files.

What should I add / change in the application and its interface?

What accessibility components might be warranted?

Should the application parse and present EXIF data, or is that too much?
