Also came here to say Nightcrawler. I was 15 when I saw it, and of course at the time I thought nothing could freak me out, but I wasn't prepared for Jake Gyllenhaal being that creepy
I've actually been wondering how feasible it might be to set up a Lemmy or piefed server just for me. Is it frowned upon in the fediverse to essentially have a "vanity" url for an instance no one else can join? How difficult would it be to manage blocklists/federation without a team like the large instances have? Would there be an issue with instances refusing to federate with a single user instance?
It works with wildcards, but only if they're pre-defined in some yaml. It's great for i.e. defining areas a robot vacuum should clean or days of the week for a weather forcast, but might be a bit of a pain for shopping list items unless you only ever use your voice for a select few.
As for what I'm using, it's just called speech-to-phrase and I believe it's now the default when setting up a new Voice PE (although that might just be on lower powered hardware). If it wasn't set up for you, it can be installed as an add-on and then configured as a Wyoming protocol service.
This is why I started using speech to phrase instead of speech to text. Sure it's technically less flexible, but I only need a couple of voice commands for occasional tasks that are impractical to automate with sensors and it's blazing fast
Is this really causation though? Could it not just be that kids that spend less time looking at screens are less likely to be short-sighted AND more likely to spend time outside?
I have almost 50 containers running on a £75 used mini pc from Ebay, chucked in the bottom of a cupboard. Anyone that tells you you need a giant server rack to self host is a gatekeeping moron
The best way I found to combat spam was to change my email address. Was it a pain? Yes. Was it worth it? Absolutely yes.
Suddenly I can just give my email address out to services I trust, and I set up a temporary alias for anything I don't (although I tend to avoid those these days anyway).
