How do I search my own posts on here for a specific keyword? on bsky i can put in something like `from:me fox` and it'll search the word "fox" in all posts i've personally written. i don't know how to do that on glitchsoc

I feel most people know the Netherlands is mostly below sea level and there are some dikes to keep the water out, but I'm not sure if people appreciate just how far it goes.
Like... they've turned a sea into a lake. They've reclaimed so much land an entirely new province was formed.
This is pretty bonkers stuff really when you think about it!

so what if double hi-res Apple II Peasant's Quest were a thing?
I'm just messing around here, doing the game in dhgr would take up twice as much RAM/disk and be 100x more difficult to program.

i kind of want a full-metal keyboard. maybe parkerized gunmetal. i'm sure it would be heavy as shit. i'm sure the switches would need to be extra stiff. it'd probably cost fuck-hundred dollars. but i think about brushed metal textures and the want comes right back.

Firefox just updated and those shit eaters decided to add some ai slop search engine to the browser so make sure to go under your search settings and remove it like I'm about to.
Truth be told though we're kind of looking at replacing Mom's and Grandma's computers anyway, because despite having Reasonable specs and upgrades (Grandma's has a SATA SSD, Mom's had that plus rocking 20 GB of DDR3 RAM), they're getting a bit long in the tooth.
Hvergelmir shall serve as the guinea pig for this unofficial Windows 10 ESU work around. If it seems like it holds and doesn't come with nasty side effects, it may need to get deployed to the rest of the family.

One of the earliest sign I knew AI chatbots was going to be horrible for mental health was actually from my lived experience of using speech-to-text transcription.
Context: I am deaf, and I was born that way, and I grew up with hearing aids and got my cochlear when I turned 15. The cochlear, by itself, improved my speech accuracy to 75% from 25% with dual hearing aids.
During the pandemic, my speech comprehension skills worsened due to fundamentally lossy audio quality over Zoom.

“The totally cool way to run and network your computer” sounds just as stupid as it did when I first got these boxes. I paid $2 for them at a HAM radio convention 11 years ago and they’ve just been sitting sealed ever since. Got them out of storage today and I think I’ll open them. (Thread time.)
