  • What's the best Online Alarm Clock that's also Open Source?

    Jump

  • Datetime.app is a self-hostable web page with a bunch of time-related tools. I don't think it has an alarm clock so it won't help you with this need, but i mention it in case you have other date/time tool needs.

  • What's the name of this high energy 80s pop/disco song sang by a solo female singer? Me humming the melody: https://voca.ro/1fiQl9tlBHoh Has a vibe like I Feel For You by Chaka Kahn

    Jump

  • I asked chatGPT:

    Good question. I couldn’t find any 1980s song by a solo female singer with the exact lyric “nothing really matters” (or “nothing truly matters”) that matches your description. Here are a few thoughts and possibilities, plus what might help you narrow it down — and a guess + next steps.

    💡 What the Searches Turned Up

    1. “Nothing Really Matters” by Madonna — but that’s from 1999, so too late for your 80s vibe. (Wikipedia)
    2. “Nothing Really Matters” by Gabrielle Aplin — also way more recent (2019). (Wikipedia)
    3. “Nothing Really Matters” by Fiona — this one exists, according to Shazam. (Shazam)

      1. But Fiona’s “Nothing Really Matters” seems to be a reggae-style song, not a high-energy 80s disco/funk. (Shazam)
      2. Also, Fiona’s own career peaked more in the late ’80s rock/pop space — her album “Beyond the Pale” was in 1986. (Apple Music - Web Player)
    4. I found no credible matches for an 80s dance/disco track where a female singer sings exactly “nothing truly matters” (in that phrasing).

    ✅ My Guess

    Based on what you remember, it’s possible the lyric is slightly misheard. The Fiona song looks like the closest title match, but the style doesn’t align well with what you described (if it truly is her song).

    🔍 What to Try Next

    To track it down more precisely, you can:

    • Use a song identifier app (like Shazam or SoundHound) the next time you hear it in a store.
    • Ask the store (if they play a fixed playlist) — they might be able to check their in-store music list.
    • Try humming the melody into a “hum to search” tool (some modern music apps do that).
    • Think about other lyrics or fragments: maybe there’s a line before or after “nothing really matters” that stands out. Even a few more words help a lot.

    If you like, I can dig into 80s female disco/pop songs with similar-sounding lyrics (bass line, synth, etc.) and send some top candidates. Do you want me to do that?

  • cwtch (that ain't no typo)

    Jump

  • Asio on the cwtch website itself:

    Cwtch /kʊtʃ/

    Cwtch (/kʊtʃ/ - a Welsh word roughly translating to “a hug that creates a safe place”) is a decentralized, privacy-preserving, multi-party messaging protocol that can be used to build metadata resistant applications.

  • What if Q-space/the Q-ocean is real? (More in post body)

    Jump

  • ...nature of reality is a timeless ocean where every possible bundle of qualia - first person sensory experiences - exists within it? Time doesn't actually exist, but the illusion of it could...

    Isn't that an oxymoron? If every possible first-person sensory experience exists, then time exists (we experience time).

  • Why does markdown treat linefeeds as spaces?

    Jump

  • "Supposed to"? That originated back before desktop publishing existed, when typed communication (as in typewriters) were only monospace, and adding 2 spaces between sentences made text easier to read.

    In modern times (as in the past 30 years or so, i think), while adding 2 spaces between sentences might remain as a preference or in a style guide, you haven't been "supposed to" do it.

    Maybe now that markdown is so commonplace, it'll make a return?

  • [Sovled]AMDGPU crash when on high load, blackscreen and gpu fan go crazy.

    Jump

  • When I experienced the same symptoms, i eventually found out if was because ROCm didn't support having an AMD GPU as well as an AMD iGPU (iGPU is an integrated GPU, on the motherboard). Once i disabled the iGPU, those symptoms stopped.

    l don't remember how i disabled the iGPU. Might have been in the bios settings, might have been a kernel parameteretc in /default/grub.

    If it doesn't fix your issue, you can just re-enable the iGPU.

  • I like Tesseract, but haven't tried the others you mentioned so I can't compare.

  • Selfhost an LLM

    Jump

  • Sounds like you already know what you need to know to host Ollama in a Docker container. Ollama is an LLM "engine" - you can interact with LLM models via a CLI or you can integrate them into other services via an API.

    To have a web page chat like ChatGPT or others, I installed OpenWebU. I love it! A friend of mine likes LMStudio, which i think is a desktop app, but I don't know anything about it.

  • What would you do with a device like this

    Jump

  • Yup! Though that's Adam Sandler doing the bit in the Rob Schneider movie, the original bit on SNL was done by Schneider (originally in 1993 i think). 🙂

  • Movie quote? I recognize it from a recurring Rob Schneider character on SNL. What movie was it in?

  • Using dark mode might be more energy-intensive if the screen is an LCD.

    Jump

  • Ah. Thanks for pointing that out, @[email protected]. I was considering an OLED screen to be a modern LCD screen.

  • Using dark mode might be more energy-intensive if the screen is an LCD.

    Jump

  • I thought that with OLED screens, and a dark mode that supports it, black pixels are actually not backlit, meaning they use less energy. Is that not right?

  • The end of tt-rss.org

    Jump

  • I really enjoy tt-rss. I self host it so i guess I'll keep using it until i find a replacement, but this is sad.

  • What happened to those always on AI glasses that recorded everything and doxed anyone you met?

    Jump

  • I think you mean these but i dont know where they are now.

  • If I use Caddy for reverse-proxying into another local machine... is my local connection not HTTPS?

    Jump

  • I'm not familiar with Caddy at all - I use Traefik for a reverse proxy, and my knowledge there isn't huge either. But I think that your reverse proxy terminates TLS (HTTPS) from the world and then forwards traffic to the appropriate service on your local network using HTTP by default - but if your local service can handle TLS, I think you can configure your reverse proxy to forward the traffic to it using TLS.
