Next batch of stickers to be converted to magnets. These were from the Tri-City Comic Con in Pasco WA a couple months back. Just now getting around to doing this. Plus the our local renaissance fair is happening tomorrow, so I will probably have another batch of stickers to do as well.
#GM everyone. Just here to let you all know that today is a new day, a new week, and no matter what happens in your own life or in this world, it's going to be okay.

This was fun indeed. It solved a problem I had with LM Studio. I honestly thought implementation MCP modules would be difficult, but it was pretty painless. Also Warp is an amazing tool for terminal use.

I just finished watching a good classic called "Hook". Gosh... They don't make then like they used to. Plus watching it as an adult really puts things into perspective. Anyways watch it if you have the time where ever you get your movies. 😉
Okay this is cool. I'm going to try it later on today.

I will riot if Costco ups the price on the $1.50 hotdogs.
Sad but true for the most part...

Today's internet install view out on the Lake. It may be warm on the roof but I could never get tired of this.
Went to a small Comic Con over in Pasco, WA. It felt like LFNW. It was big enough, but low key enough to actually talk to the Artist and Vendors. I had a budget and got plenty of stickers, posters and a few Books non the less. Definitely worth going to next year.

Awesome! Nextcloud displays README files at the root of their folders. This led me to have Warp Terminal create an index of the folder's contents, allowing me to have a summery of what's inside. This will definitely improve my file organization.
I would the ability to compress duplicate posts into one like when we post or cosspost.

Also support for connecting our lightning wallets and the ability to zap nostr posts. We could zap posts from other sites, but the user would need to have the LN address on the profile. Mostr.pub does for ex.
I'm starting warming up to using LLMs for admin tasks. For instance, Warp Terminal can help me plan, run searches, and reference docs I provide. It even organizes my work into notes for future use. Pretty cool if I say so.

Idk, what does everyone else in the admin/dev world think about this?
My ended up watching K-pop Demon Hunters and now I understand why that movie is so popular. Why are K-pop songs so catchy?

In my case, I use a third party app, openvibe, which crossposts so it shows up on my other two accounts on mastodon and nostr. That's why it quotes for me. Though yeah quoting would help me keep track of who I reply to on my timeline I guess. 😅
This is a perfect use of bitchat!

Okay I ended up setting up a blusky account. It will probably just mirror my Mastodon account and Nostr since I'm using Openvibe to post.

For those curious on blusky, you can also follow me on Mastodon @[email protected] and on Nostr my NIP is [email protected]
