@cbff34d4 I'm REALLY excited to see the stream on the 12th! This has been an awesome journey to see happening!
Can you answer if this'll include audio devices attached directly to our HA boxes, or only remote nodes for now? Either way, or even if you can't confirm, I'm excited!
Hi Blimps! You may notice a new 'Translate' link in the web UI and some apps on toots that are not in the language you've specified in Blimpstodon's settings.
We now have local translation powered by LibreTranslate!
This is entirely locally-run within Blimps' infrastructure and does not require any cloud services. :kay_happy:
@367424eb Wait is...this like the proper solution to DoH? I'd worry about the key fetch being itself intercepted if that's not over DoT, but combined with DoTLS maybe it fixes?
@59823691@7edc02e3 I ran into a download site last night that even with Firefox privacy, uBO, and PB turned off _still_ thought I had adblockers enabled.
I can only assume that was because pfBlockerNG on my pfSense box was blocking malicious IP addresses, since I don't have it blocking ads.
Awful.
@e302f712 It may, or it just may mean you want to jump ahead to 'exciting' things x3 Getting ahead of yourself though is the best way to be lost later when working on things. I kinda wish I had a stronger grasp of some Python features so I wasn't constantly referencing built-in modules
@e302f712 part of this is learning to get an understanding under the hood for working with a language API in addition to the fundamentals of what's involved.
I'm not sure how to encourage making it exciting, but a lot of good software development involves working with sometimes boring components in order to make things work "right" and not just "mostly right".
Tbh writing a toString method for a custom class is definitely more interesting than my own intro programming courses were in Uni x3
Well, it's spoopy time! Guess this bracelet doesn't make me a werewolf so much as a weremoon! And being a balloon at that, well, cuddle that moon belly for a while and you might end up a balloon yourself, inflating under its glow! Grurrf <3
Art by the late @f0019535. I hope sharing this honors the kind of joy he brought so many. 🧡

Oh, heh there? Like my new cushion? A balloon on top of a balloon, seems like a fit for a silly coyote like me :kay_blush: cute picture from FA user actual trash and one of my earliest pics of me as a coyote! I'm not into balloons the way most folks into them are, but I do like the idea of being able to use them as a cushion, while a balloon myself. ^^ #balloons #balloonfur #balloonie #inflatable

@7edc02e3 It went right into the "But I need to say something was wrong with what was posted" bin, which lacks immense levels of reading comprehension.
Been really happy so far whenever picking someone to commission for drawing me who's never drawn an inflatable before, either balloonie or pooltoy, and been really pleasantly surprised at how excited many have even been, didn't realize a lot of folks had been itching to draw such before >///>
@9ed2bbb7 I'm using folders in my Nextcloud for it, since it syncs to each of my PCs and I can use that same extension to connect via WebDAV to the vaults for mobile :3 Plus it means even if I can't access Obsidian, I can still access the notes directly in Nextcloud.
Incidentally seeing @9ed2bbb7 usage of @ab7fa1ed has me better realizing how I can seriously benefit from it, basically "documentation for myself" kinds of things because of stuff I have trouble remembering and can instead document to help myself out later on setups for various things.
Ended up running LocalVocal for OBS which does a local Whisper model for captioning. Can output to the stream and/or to a text item or text file. I've got it with the captions on my title screen but otherwise, closed captions on Twitch. #ClosedCaptions #Subtitles #Twitch
@8634bed2 Heck!! Glad you like him so much!!
Typically too he places bets with folks, as to what'll burst first: his belt, or him~ he reforms easy enough if the latter ends up the result, though given his slime interior, anyone too close who gets the rubber slime on themselves when he blows might end up like him...and probably almost hypnotically driven to blow themselves up similarly >:3
Me: uwu in the sheets, owo in the spreadsheets
@491f3626: ... I am going to fully deflate you, fold you up, stick you in a suitcase and roll you down the street outside so you can think about what you've done
Friend: are you saying he didn't excel at that joke?
Walf: ...you can leave x3
@01548328 if you could order it fast I'd say get a cobra knockoff set in your size/length and gauge the right size for actual cobra off that. I'm gonna see if I can order an actual cobra
@7edc02e3 My rule of thumb is that if it's something I know is very spicy and at a chain restaurant not known for spicy food, it is almost certainly not at all spicy.
@491f3626 between the phone and VoIP.ms, there's no decompression and recompression occurring most likely, probably not even on the pbx since as far as it's concerned it's SIP->SIP. It's after VoIP.ms when that diciness of sound quality kicks in for compression nonsense at least. But definitely a solid test as well of that latency stability!
@64b11bbe yesss, 100% this. If they were good maintaining Twitter and Instagram they can do Bluesky and Fediverse too. I really do think Fedi is bigger than even I realize in terms of furry presence, and relied on heavily.
@63922604 I always tell folks I primarily use Telegram. I can't fathom Discord, from a UI perspective it makes me anxious most of the time, being unable to see group stuff and individual stuff at the same time, it just, I dunno. Blerf.
@8634bed2 aa thank you <3
Heck, I should snag something from you of him if you like the idea! I don't have a formal color reference at all unfortunately, but would be fun to see that kind of BWOOMPH in your style <3
