Tested the Kamrui Hyper H2 - super efficient mini PC that handles daily tasks with ease and barely uses power when idle. Homelab potential? Absolutely!
It's #FairtradeMusicFriday! Here's a new submission thread for February.
As always, submit your own release or someone else's, it can be by #FediMusicians or not, hosted on #Bandcamp, #Faircamp, #JamCoop, #Mirlo or #SelfHosted, as long as it is by an #IndieArtist - it doesn't even need to be new.
Just make a direct public comment (with a link & description) to this post and it will appear at https://isitfairtrademusicfri.day automagically!
Buying or boosting will make an artist's day 💙
OK since I seem to be managing new tracks every month at the moment, here's February's effort up on #soundcloud. Melodic ambient, I managed to restrain myself from adding any drums. https://soundcloud.com/northcape/choreia?si=16 (Northcape rough master) #music #musicproduction #ambient #electronic Photo by Alexey Chudin.
Call for testing for a script that installs #KDE #PLASMA on a #FreeBSD desktop or laptop. Testing is aimed at users who already know FreeBSD, for example who can configure /etc/rc.conf and /boot/loader.conf.
I’m especially interested in feedback from people with NVIDIA GPUs, since I don’t have this hardware myself.

Some notes about the #CPC 2026 Calgary Convention. #CanPol #cdnpoli #Conservative #Tory :
1. The ex-MP pointed to me: "You're abnormal", and he pointed to my left: "You're abnormal", then "And he's abnormal", and "I'm abnormal." We are all people who enjoy sitting around over lunch and discussing relations with the PRC.
Imagine that you have a niche interest, F1, let's say. Every morning, you check the news about F1, you listen to podcasts about it, you read essays about it. (cont'd)

On the one hand I'm very tired. The state of the world around us is truly terrible and nobody can ignore it. But on the other hand I'm not giving up. The struggle will be long but we must never give up hope. We'll make this world a better place, this society a better society and ultimately ourselves better human beings.

Listen: the best way to understand 'AI' is to think of it as the average of everything it has ever ingested.
Ask 'AI' to make a painting in the style of Van Gogh? Presto! It generates a nice picture averaging all of Van Gogh output!
It looks good, but not because that image generator is a genius, but because Van Gogh WAS a genius.
Now the question becomes; would you like to be remembered as just 'average' or as a genius like Van Gogh?
Replace picture by text or music and you understand AI.

This is a long shot but does anybody know anybody who worked on the Calgary feminist radio show "Yeah, what she said" that used to air on 90.9FM CJSW?
I was interviewed on it for Escher Girls in 2014 (though the episode wasn't posted online as a podcast until 2015) but the site no longer exists except on the internet Archive and the mp3s weren't backed up afaict.
http://static.cjsw.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/Sept1_2014_EscherGirls.mp3
Does anybody know anybody who used to run the show that might have the episode backed up? Or if any of my fans actually backed it up when it was live. (I might have, I have to check but I don't think I did ): )
Feel free to boost on other platforms.

Your AI "tells" are just somebody else's culture being repackaged.

While Epstein’s victims endure the fallout of their photos and names being exposed in the Department of Justice’s latest tranche of files, investigators redacted the identity of the most famous portrait in the world.

so moltbook and clawedbot are having a meltdown because it only took ten days for someone to realize it was a pietri dish for malware and packed the skills store full of backdoored malicious bullshit and they had no plan to deal with that inevitability? because this was a guarantee. it was GOING to happen. if we go save them, we are letting them fuck around, but not find out. they NEED to find out.
