just looked it up and couldn’t find a decent client for ios. There was Monal but it looks more like a draft rather than a finished application. Things don’t even have padding or margins. The snikket one I won’t even mention, you can’t expect people to use something that gives them visual discomfort.

you go to bed at 7pm in June?

This tool is for your use case. It comes with bonus privacy features like unique address for each service so they can’t cross track you

Being Russian has never changed throughout my country’s history. We have been murdered and abused the same from the empire to the USSR to current Russia. The behavior has been same and consistent and far surpasses the context of current wars, so you can’t blame Ukrainian and Georgian people’s refusal to be re-invaded by Russia one more time and wanting to do nothing with them on “being polarized” by the war.

yeah you can’t weasle your way out like that since I got literally 0% of that information from western media - I am from one of the countries that were victims of USSR and current Russia

Read their comments. It is obvious they are a hardcore propagandist.

If anyone wants proof that this post is in absolutely bad faith and malicious, read ops comments defending USSR. The criticism of the other server could may as well be valid but it is impossible to know if your posts were taken down because the were critical of US or because it was obvious it was an alt for tankie propaganda. I do wish the admin of the instance knew the difference between commie and tankie though, as the first one does not warrant a defensive response and the other has an immoral agenda. Too bad many modern western communists totally swallow the authoritarian pill.

countries that used to be brothers in the USSR

my sides. This is genuinely one of the most ridiculous things I have heard, and that’s something coming from a person who is exposed to nausea inducing amount of USSR propaganda every day here. I am literally speechless. People tortured and killed, families torn apart, overwhelming protests for freedom crushed with tanks and young men and women poisoned with gas to the point of not being recognizable. BROTHERS? No man, no Georgian or Ukrainian sees Russians as brothers. We see you for the only thing you have done over and over again - invaded, killed, tortured and raped us.

Thank you for the write up! These snakes are so good at fooling most people into believing complete gibberish.

Why isn’t this an app?

The main reason for this is that I wanted to create a voice assistant that is completely offline and doesn’t require any internet connection. This is because I wanted to ensure that the user’s privacy is protected and that the user’s data is not being sent to any third party servers.

Weird reasoning, why constrain the assistant to pi’s power and memory when you can use it for interaction and utilize another, more powerful server at home

I set it up last month. I’ve rarely experienced had such a smooth setup process. Was putting it off for years because I had assumed I would need at least several hours. Right now I have one on a server and then every device syncs to it (thought it would be easy to set up backups that way)

I got so excited about an app that would do both, went to App Store and got genuinely startled by how unpleasant it looked. I don’t understand when devs opt in to spend more time on custom styling when there are lots of properly designed libraries

I’ve heard good things about it, looking forward to learning it (hopefully soon)

yes I heard it’s great. Scala was one language where I didn’t constantly feel like getting hit in the head with a hammer and I’ve heard Kotlin has a similar experience. I’m not interested in Android development so I haven’t tried it

the can’t add proper typing without adding a compiler. Whatever they add will be closer to puthon’s type hints. I’ve had to write primary in python lately and type hints help very very slightly, and tools like pyright catch so many false errors due to lack of hints in libraries that we’re forced to add ignore statements on too many lines. I genuinely don’t understand how there can be so many languages and all of them be painful to use

Typescript is the only way I can agree to code in Javascript. And the only way you can have a sane project without writing double or triple the amount if unit tests for each function just to check things that a compiler would do. However it is absolutely a lipstick on a pig thing with confusing behavior sometimes, but that’s because the underlying language it is trying to make bearable is bonkers

not sure what to answer, I made clear in my comment that github is also problematic, discord is simply worse, therefore they’re not the same like the original commenter said. I’m hoping both of them will fuck up like reddit and twitter did and more people will make effort to move away from it.

like I said I agree, Discord is simply more terrible.

not at all the same situation. Git itself is not proprietary so all the projects can survive without GitHub if the need arises. Additionally, you don’t need an account to view the repository or its discussions. There is of course a walled garden for participation and it is an issue, however it doesn’t compare to discord, which is much, much worse.

ah got it, thanks
