You can look stuff up almost immediately on your phone wherever you are but sometimes you’re in mid conversation or maybe you’re traveling and have no data and end up at the mercy of the description that someone is giving you. And maybe their description seems not as informative or convincing as Wikipedia or a video on the internet, which is silly if you rly think abt it. And sometimes their description is just w/out context and seems almost unbelievable, like they might be trolling you.

My self hosting from a little computer (raspi) in my kitchen went badly a month or so ago. I updated something and didn’t have a full backup 😭And so I deleted my server and started over again. I installed an automatic backup system (borg) and I’m back in business… ✨ #selfhosting

People are so scared of AI helping students cheat but I can’t stop thinking about how it would have helped me and potentially taught me better ways of expressing my ideas in English, growing up. English is really my second language and since I grew up speaking Japanese at home, I’ve always felt somewhat inadequate about my writing and speaking skills at school. Even now tbh. 😞

Our future will consist of only ai friends and family. We won’t need each other anymore cause we’ll have a comfortable, supportive ai environment custom designed for us to optimally thrive in. No more insecurities, no more fomo, no more trauma, no more loneliness, and no more navigating complex social situations. We’ll be living in complete denial but we won’t even care. We’ll have everything we need to be happy and will be living our best lives.

The running joke in Japanese mastodon seems to be writing mastodon like マスト丼. Don meaning donburi as in bowl. Like 牛丼Gyudon is beef bowl. カツ丼 Katsudon is pork katsu bowl 天丼 tendon is tempura bowl etc. so マスト丼masuto-don lol. when googled I found a recipe for it on cookpad which is the most popular recipe sharing site.
