CTO @dude (a WordPress agency), admin of several servers like this one, programmer, *nix user, and advocate for an open and ethical Internet. Creator of Mastodon Bird UI. I work with servers, websites, and open source for a living. I'm safe. 🌈
:skull360: We've successfully upgraded our Mastodon server to v4.5.0-alpha.2+mementomods-2025-08-24. This upgrade includes the latest today's daily build, so everything should be as up to date as possible. Mastodon Bird UI has been upgraded to 2.3.4rc4 with a minor fix to the upcoming Quote Posts feature. As always, if you notice anything unusual or buggy, please let me or any of the other admins know. Enjoy your time here! Feel free to message me if you have any questions or thoughts. :bunhdheart: #MementoMoriSocial #Mastodon #MastoAdmin #MastodonBirdUI #BirdUI
Wow, Proton and Vulkan have come a long way. I just installed BG3 and OW2 on my Linux machine, and both run perfectly - probably even better than on Windows. Who needs Windows anymore? #Linux #LinuxGaming
Fediverse is still the most lively social network I have ever used, since MySpace in 2003. It is better than Twitter or any commercial social media platform ever was. Absolutely love being here. The most profound thing about it is the international coverage. After the first wave of enshittification in 2010, algorithms took over, and suddenly as a polyglot I was labeled as Finnish. No more visible international posts, people only saw the Finnish ones. I've noticed the same effect in commercial AI. It ignores the fact that I use English online 99% of the time and still replies to me in Finnish despite all instructions. Algorithms and AI label you. They assign you a language, a status, a certain type of person. There's no changing that. The Fediverse and Mastodon are delightfully mine, yours, and truly open source - respecting privacy. Nobody's machine can tell you, "You are this, and this is why we do that." Fuck labelers and the fog machines. Let me be me. Here, on my own server, I can embrace my weirdness and post however I want, how often I want, whenever I want, in whatever language I choose - without constantly worrying about how my identity will be perceived by a machine. #SocialMedia #Mastodon #Fediverse
AppImage is a frustrating invention for Linux. It should work like macOS's .app, but it falls short. Getting an app to run and dock always involves tinkering and manually deploying a .desktop item, among other hassles. I wish I had known about Gear Lever for Gnome earlier. Gear Lever makes updating AppImage apps much easier. I prefer .deb packages, but too many apps don't offer them. #Linux #AppImage #Apps image
AFD has surprisingly large portion of votes it seems according to the Finnish broadcast forecast results 19:24. #FuckAFD #AFD #Germany #GermanyElection #Politics #GermanPolitics image
Gotta have some fun sometimes when writing a boring documentation... "We don't make mistakes in music and life." - Kummeli Musacorner, 1991 (Spotted a typo after taking this screenshot, damn it! Well, proves the point about mistakes 😂 ) #Documentation #Coding #Kummeli #Funny image
GpTARS is my favorite thing online right now. An AI bot written in python. #DIY #AI #Videos #ChatGPT #TARS #Movies #Interstellar
I just created a program that uses an AI language model to go through my task list and calendar, prioritize the tasks according to who am I and what I do, what's the situation in our company and how much I get to do during my work day, top 5 and recommendations why and what should be postponed. This gets saved to my Obsidian vault as markdown note each morning for me to start working. All this with bash. :bunhdheart: PS. I hate the over-utilization for AI, but it's good for repetitive monkey things and secretary type of tasks. #AI #Bash #Linux #OpenAI #ChatGPT #Tasks #Productivity #Programming
I've been running long runs (20-30km) carrying a bottle of half a gallon of water in my hand. I think it's time to start thinking about purchasing a running vest. I know nothing about them, but preferably the vest should in some way contain a holding of 1500ml of water minimum. Runners out there, what do you recommend? #Run #Running #LongRun #Marathon #HalfMarathon
Training for my first marathon. Week 8. Progressing steadily. June: 86.10km. #RolleJuoksee #Running #Juoksu #Juokseminen image

Now people are saying Threads feels like Twitter. I told you! Please come to Mastodon. #Threads #Mastodon #Fediverse
Suddenly, life has new meaning Suddenly, feeling is being And you shine inside and love stills my mind like the sunrise Dreaming light of the sunrise Suddenly, I don't have to be afraid Suddenly, it all falls into place #Running #RolleJuoksee #Juokseminen #Run #Winter #WinterRunning #Juoksu image
Olen ollut viime päivinä allapäin. Kun tuntuu, että ei ole mitään hyvää sanottavaa mistään, on parempi olla hiljaa. Erityisesti somessa pitäisi olla jokin hyvän mielen lähettiläs. Siihen minusta ei nyt ole, olen pahoillani.
Markkinointi ei ole absoluuttista. On ihan turha pohtia miksi ei laita rahaa tai aikaa (joka on yleensä rahaa) kaikkiin mahdollisiin lokeroihin. Väkisin haulikolla ampuen se on hukkaan heitettyä rahaa. Markkinoinnin pitää tulla luonnostaan ja oikeissa kanavissa. Fakta on, että jokainen jalkapallo-ottelussa ei rekisteröi laitamainostasi. Kaikki 1,5 miljardia TikTok-käyttäjää eivät näe videotasi. Markkinointi on rajallista, häilyvää, mielikuvien synnyttämistä ja pitkää peliä. #Markkinointi
