Understood.

THIS IS AWESOME!!! I’ve been working on using an obsidian vault and a podman ollama container to do something similar, with VSCodium + continue as middleware. But this! This looks to me like it is far superior to what I have cobbled together.

I will study your codeberg repo, and see if I can use your conductor with my ollama instance and vault program. I just registered at codeberg, if I make any progress I will contact you there, and you can do with it what you like.

On an unrelated note, you can download wikipedia. Might work well in conjunction with your conductor.

It’s easy to attack him for it, but the truth of the matter is: the Zionist billionares that fund the Democratic party won’t let him say anything else if he wants a chance at the white house.

And those zionist billionares have been using Israel for decades to suppress socialism in the middle east, while using campaign finance to do the same in the US.

He is helping those that he can by playing the game in a deeply flawed system.

I have been using bazzite for over a year after starting with ubuntu, and then doing a “I’m doing everything myself” arch install (I learned SO MUCH).

I love it. I got a little frustrated about some of the package installation restrictions, but then I read about distrobox, and now I have an arch box, a ubuntu box, and an ollama box running a local LLM. No more problems with finding CLI programs. I even used the arch box to run adb and fastboot to flash android stuff, it worked flawlessly.

And of course gaming and standard desktop tasks work with zero problems. Next I’m going to convert my wife’s Windows 10 PC to bazzite, and setup excel and some proprietary software for her.

By hosting software that helps people communicate about the location and activity of government-sponsored paramilitary groups like ICE.

Hosting media that helps people be self-reliant, like gardening or home-repair guides.

Hosting state-forbidden media like banned books, that help people to be educated, which in turn saves lives by people not being so suscceptable to propaganda.

I suppose I could think of more, but I think those are some of the most clear examples.

Note: apologies about the spelling errors, my spellcheck is currently not working.

I can’t put much time into this, but I speak German and I can assure you that this is at least a serious article about the options out there:

Either translate the page, or just follow the links and inform yourself. I hope it helps.

Edit: here’s another one about open-source CAD options (not necessarily for architecture). I just noticed that the other list isn’t a list of open-source, so many of those are probably proprietary.

Nix is such a cool project. If I had more time I’d definitely give it a go.

I ran bazzite on a Lenovo flexpad with Intel und 630 graphics and it ran perfectly. I even ran mechwarrior 5 on it, albeit with the graphics details turned down so low that it looked like a mechwarrior game from the 1990s.

I’d give bazzite a go. Learning about how to install and use distroboxes is also lots of Linux fun.

Edit: also, you literally cannot break any of the immutable fedora distros. Very newbie friendly.

Finally, something we agree on.

I’ve given up the conversation with them, it’s not worth the effort.

I don’t think either of us is getting anything out of this conversation. Let’s just leave it, ok?

How about the spheres in this image? Which colors do you observe? And which colors are they really?

I’m not trying to be condescending, it’s just an example of how our senses do not necessarily display reality.

I think the main problem with this sort of logic is that it presumes that what we see is reality. This isn’t necessarily true.

Evolution has shaped us to see that which is most important for our survival. If seeing things as they truly are would interfere with our evolutionary fitness, then our brains would filther that out. In fact, this seems very likely, evidence being the many illusions that can be used to fool our senses.

If this was the case, then physical objects may not exsist at all, they would just be an artifact of this filtering effect. Roland Hoffmann is a great resource for understanding this sort of theory.

I think this makes a lot of sense:

I made the jump to signal, and those that refused to come with got relegated to SMS.

But it’s not always that easy. Sorry that you have to deal with that BS.

The other comment is great, as a plan B this app is what I use for automating just about anything on android.

It takes a little while to get used to the block programming, but it’s fun and can do lots of stuff. The free version should work fine on an alternate android-based OS, but I haven’t checked myself.

Edit: used to use. I haven’t actually been on stock android for a while, and I haven’t used the app in a while either.

Wow, that’s quite a lot of content to go through. Thanks!

I agree, but I also wonder if the Democratic party can be converted from the inside to change it’s focus.

Probably not. I just winder what the best way forward is. It’s not really clear.

Sentient Soup.

You are right, it’s a worthless endeavor.
