@prologic@twtxt.net That’s an interesting premise in that article:

The fun has been sucked out of the process of creation because nothing I make organically can compete with what AI already produces—or soon will.

This is like saying it’s pointless to make music yourself because some professional player/audio engineer does a better job. Really, there’s always someone or something that’s better than you at a particular job.

If we focus too much on “competition”, then yes, you can just stop doing anything. I don’t know how common this mindset is, especially among artists or creative people. 🤔 I would have assumed that many writers, for example, simply enjoy the process of writing. Am I being too naive once more? 🤣

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’m more worried about Dustin Curtis’s take on Thoughts on Thinking piece 🤔 It’s a worrying time we’re facing, where all human creativity, critical thinking and having to “think” at all just goes out the window 🪟 wow 🤯

@prologic@twtxt.net I hadn’t considered this particular scenario, no.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I kind of need some more details if you can. Logs, observations anything! Please 🙏

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I mean are you surprised? 😮

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz this is the way. Tell your pod I am very proud of them! 😂

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz This is way too long for me to watch in its entirety, but: “Ugh, talking is weird” – I feel that, very much. 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org That bird pic goes right in the wallpaper collection. 😍

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org He was a gift. 💚 Hatched in 2007. 🐣 Will be allowed to drive this year.

@prologic@twtxt.net yayyyy :D

@prologic@twtxt.net my pod does whatever it wants at this point

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Watching your vlog right now 😅

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Hmmmm? 🤔

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz I just got a bit bored 🥱

@prologic@twtxt.net a couple of days?!?! and to learn that omg are you studying for a phd at nasa

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Haha I did that for a couple of days last week 🤣 What was I doing you ask?! 😅 Studying and learning how Artificial Neural Networks with Evolutionary Adaptation work 🤣

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org BIG tux!!!!!!!!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I AM GOING TO CRY THEY’RE SO CUTE T___T THE SILLIES….. i’m so jealous i want my own little tux family!!!!

@movq@www.uninformativ.de you need to get a gold chain and hang this little penguin on it, so that nobody can doubt your Linux user status.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz Actual family photo:

I have another one on my keychain and a small one in the car. And this little guy is probably hard to spot in the photo, because he’s just 1cm tall:

@bender@twtxt.net LMAO

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Cool! 😎 Mind joining the same IRC space? 🙏

@prologic@twtxt.net I can give it a try, might learn a thing or two (or a 100) along the way. 😁

@prologic@twtxt.net Sweeeet! thank you for verifying.

@kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz you just described me, according to my wife. 😅😂

@bender@twtxt.net It’s still a straight-through to the Eris backend that itself uses a Let’s Encrypt cert now. Haven’t tried to also terminate TLS at the Edge yet.

@prologic@twtxt.net I forgot to ask you about this. Did you ended up using TLS with Caddy, or you used something else?

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org gorgeous!

@thecanine@twtxt.net THAT’S SO CUTE OMG i want a 3D printed tux keychain….

@thecanine@twtxt.net we are so cooked

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org maybe 3D printed toys are the solution, to the dust collecting problem. My collection of 3D printed canines, just expanded today, with this new keychain:

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org … I didn’t say there aren’t lots of Tux plushies around here. 😂

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Nope, this is some random photo. 😅

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org now, that’s as clear as water! See? How come @prologic@twtxt.net wasn’t able to put it that way? LOL.

@prologic@twtxt.net I am not convinced. LOL. Can you ELI5 the problem, and what breaking the feed in smaller chunks solves?

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Seems to be fine 🙌

@bender@twtxt.net basically because we don’t readily use or support range hunters when requesting feeds it’s ideal to keep feed small for the time being at least until we think about writing up a formal specification for this, but it’s also only for Http hosted feeds

y’Know what, I’ve never thought about rotating my twtxt feed before. Hopefully noting is broken now that I’ve #YOLO-ed my way at it xD

@movq@www.uninformativ.de these are so cool! hell yeah pride flag palettes too

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org yep! that one is my favorite… @movq@www.uninformativ.de I hope you don’t mind me snatching that one, I’d love to use it as Wallpaper.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org what is the advantage for keeping it small? Will tt/tt2 bog down if your feed isn’t rotated?

@bender@twtxt.net elon musk is so fucking pathetic oh my god lol

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Very pretry and so sharp! 👌
