Double ug, I think I have to install gotosocial for the bot to live on because I don't think there's any tutorials on how to set up an automated bot account for friendica.

I studied Artificial Intelligence for four years, and I am not touching LLM AIs with a ten-foot pole.

It's not really about the insane electricity demands, the water usage, tho that's a good reason. It's not even, if I'm honest, about the disastrous effect on the sum of all human art and knowledge.

It's because a) I've studied enough AI to know it's a trick, a sort of linguistic illusion, and b) I've studied enough everything else to understand that I'm not immune to such illusions.

@cjust
@Tattie I think the a.i. chatbots would be more convincing if they had googly eyes.

Still bullshit of course.

I just finished up the planchette for our Spirit board.

Metaphysically speaking, the design is kind of interesting - it depicts a qabalistic tree of life, with within each of the sefirot a flower of life sacred geometry pattern. The glass lens fits right in the spot where DA'AT would be positioned.

The backside has an upright triangle, a protection symbol / spirit-filter :)

Unlike most boards though, the pointy end of the planchette is meant to point towards the user, so hopefully nobody uses this thing upside down ;) -It's meant to serve as an invocation tool as well as a divination tool.

Mechanically, there's 3 layers of basswood here holding in the lens.
The bottom layer with the triangle on it, has, on the inner side, a pocket engraved out for the lens to sit in. The next (middle/inner) layer has a complete circle cutout to fit the lens snugly, the top layer with the tree-of-life depicted on it has a smaller circle laser-cut out. The whole thing is glued together with 3 types of glue, then the edges routed with a small router bit, sanded, and stained.

I really would like healthcare with non-gacha based pricing.

Whether it is or not, even for a med you've been taking for years, month to month, is completely random.

Hey so if someone is being transphobic, it is equally as transphobic for you to then say, “Yeah well she looks trans herself”. That’s not ally shit at all

No you cannot “always tell”. You’re perpetuating harmful stereotypes about trans women and cis women of color catch a number of those strays as well. So if you’re not convinced just by contributing to transphobia, you’re also helping uphold white supremacy.

So don’t do that shit. Don’t police women’s appearances ever honestly.

I continually wonder about people who comment on trans people if they have ever actually met a trans person. For most of them I think not…


Alright, so I got a VPS and rebuilt the #yunohost and #Friendica setup that I was previously trying to self-host on my RasPi.

I didn't want to try to figure out Friendica's experimental account import/export, and I didn't trust that federation wouldn't break if I just started a new account at the same address as my previous one, so I ended up putting friendica on "the.icosahedron.network" rather than "icosahedron.network" like it was before.

I did put a writefreely install at "icosahedron.network" because it was easier than making a webpage with a link to "the.icosahedron.network" or a redirect on it, and now that I think about it, it uses the same "@cryptica@icosahedron.network" that the previous install of friendica did. So hopefully that doesn't cause issues, but TBH as long as writefreely shows that one blog post with the link in it, I don't really care about potential federation issues.

Anyway, the upshot is that #selfhosting stuff on a raspberry pi is cool so long as you don't need email to happen, but social media servers kinda need functioning email, so here we are.

Also, apparently with hetzner you can't open the email ports until your account is like a month old, so I still don't even have working email after everything, but I will have the ABILITY to open the email ports eventually.
