.....ping..... a world where computers enable us to do what’s needed. Would like to see the fediverse dominate in my lifetime. Work in design, code, wood, clay, lime, fabric, children and glass. Currently writing financial software.

Global renewable power capacity crossed the 5 TW (that's 5,000,000,000,000 Watts) mark last year!
It grew by 15.5 % within one year, driven by solar PV and wind.

For folks in Ōtautahi Christchurch, I'll be running a Linux InstallFest on 12 April at Halswell Library from 13:00. If you want to take back control of your technology, come along and have a play!

Here's the Shadertoy where you can paint eroded mountains and islands with your mouse, right in the browser:

I have this great idea for a new AI chatbot product, but with a twist: you don't have to prompt it.

And it gives, like, this really thorough, well-researched answer. And it's instant! As soon as you open it, the entire text is already generated, along with any figures or illustrations that are needed.

And to avoid hallucinations, all responses will have been compiled by human experts.

I call it a "book."

Surely if #nzlabour responded to fossil fuel volatility by committing to taking our electrical grid to 100% renewable with a plan to scale it to fulfil all our future internal energy needs they’d run away with the election? #nzpolv
In my current jobless state, I’ve found it hard to focus on anything other than finding a way to earn an income again…and family stuff. So my days are filled up with my Web AI projects (mostly head-down at this stage), family (picking up kids from school, taking them to swimming lessons, etc), looking at the job boards and usually throwing my hands in the air, and just generally feeling anxious. It’s also meant I can’t focus on writing internet history or even post on Mastodon. Weird times.
#AskMastodon does anyone know what name these super useful insert washers go by?
Back to almost usable, rust fixed and some great high density EVA foam found at the community workshop added on the floor, hopefully warmer and quieter now.

I think it's a good time to explain how we see @badgefed and @fediprofile, how they work together, and how #badges can use #ActivityPub and the #Fediverse.

Also how this can help communities outside the fediverse!

This is a quick overview of the architecture and ideas behind it. 🧵 1/
