Last Notes npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It's astonishing how quickly the novelty of agentic ai wears off. The immediate desire for greater intelligence is undeniable. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ha thanks. Yeah it's very satisfying knowing its on my own server. It started life on a mac mini, but i've since upgraded. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam https://blossom.firstmanphotography.com/0d1fdda9c5db45f0e9e350dcefb44294406f0c843a2583b3330ae6435eebbe74.jpeg npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Beauty is you can spin up a relay and set whatever rules you want. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Wow. Claude (Opus 4.6) is so much better than Codex (GPT 5.4) at running Openclaw. The difference is night and day. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Yes pretty much. Then it built a helper app to store and track everything. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It’s a blessing in disguise for the guy. He just doesn’t know it yet. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Yesterday, after 18 months, I started sharing my work on Instagram and Twitter (x) again. The beautiful thing is, I've had almost nothing to do with it. It is my Ai agent "Eve" doing it for me. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam “Give us your bitcoin and we’ll give you bitcoin.” npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ha yeah. My agent is desperate to get me involved in project management. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ha. Only because it’s upgradable, and I keep putting more stuff in it!! npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam They’re just private at the moment. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I upgraded my server just before Christmas (and before the price hikes) so I’ve got decent hardware. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Yep. It’s wild. What’s also interesting is it might end up being the more artistic, less technical people that come up with the best ideas and use cases. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Lol....Yes, that is my point. Creating pictures was democratised and put into the pocket of nearly every person in the world. The same is going to happen with building apps and coding. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam One week ago I started making apps. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Seeing non-photographers continually using phones to take terrible, grainy pictures gives me hope my experience is not yet expendable. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Bitcoin as money elegantly deals with human nature. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Yeah, the latest version as OpenClaw. I couldn't get Signal working either until I set up a new phone number on an eSim. Then i just gave it the phone number and it set itself up. 🤯 npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Just a bit of banter with my Ai assistant on Signal. 🤣🤣🤣 npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Convenience is the enemy of meaning. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Testing posting this in H.265 to give you the the full 4K, small file size experience. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ai Can't Make Art... npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Yeah it does. I'm the same as you, so for some services I will expose them to the internet and login with strong passwords and 2FA. You can also use the Pangolin built in Rules to limit access. So for example, my website is obviously exposed to the web, but then i use path rules to block the backend (example.com/path/to/the/backend) to only be accessible on my home IP address. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I installed Pangolin on a VPS and then any public domains I have, point to the VPS IP address. None of my home network ports are open. It also has a reverse proxy built in (traefik) and then a tunnel (similar to cloudflare tunnels) between the VPS and my home network. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Immich is one of my favourite bits of software in many years. If you store your digital photos on someone else’s computer (The Cloud), you should definitely give it a try. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I use Pangolin on a VPS. Lets you expose private and public services running on your home network. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It’s absolutely brilliant. I ditched iCloud about six months ago. I particularly like the machine learning based search for finding photos of particular memories. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Humans for hire. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam For me, checking their “Replies” is the quickest way to tell. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I've been lurking rather than posting on Nostr recently. So here's a Little Owl from one of the rare occasions I have the patience for wildlife photography. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It has become clear to me that convenience is often the enemy of meaning. It can even do us harm. So much fulfilment is gained from doing things that are hard. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Given that 99.999% of us are complete morons who never invented a thing, I’ve always found it strange when people take gratification from technologies developed in their country. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Bitcoin is the antithesis of the centralised AI hellscape that we are marching towards. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ha ha. At 36k that’s inviting corruption, which will probably be pretty easy in this role. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam What is bitcoin? npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It’s the smells. Digital photography doesn’t smell of anything. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Thanks for the shout out. Hope you all have a great Christmas. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ugh. I know that feeling all too well. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Thanks Gigi. Immich is absolutely brilliant, especially the machine learning based search. It’s excellent for finding little moments I remember from when my kids were younger. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam VDO Ninja for your private video calls, it uses WebRTC and it totally private. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Huh!? No he isn’t. “Jimmy Carr is the United Kingdom’s most popular comedian and celebrity.” npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I use OBS to record and bring everything together. VDO ninja to online call your guest and bring it into OBS. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam 🤝 npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam “Suitcoiners” 🤣🤣🤣 npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam A good few exciting options. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I'm DONE with Adobe... npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam They’re not gonna take our internet connections away. The last thing they want is us gathering (and organising) in the real world. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It’s so dumb. Still depressing to see how many people are in support of government doing parenting though. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It’s a place for the desperate, trying to reassure each other that being a corporate hack is meaningful and fulfilling. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Bought some gold before there's none left. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam The hybrid model has worked for me for several years now. The V4V portion remains very low though, probably less than 5% at the current time. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Breath of the Sea. A calm, long-exposure seascape where tide, sky and timber meet in soft blue tones. A moment of quiet breath from the sea. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam 💯 npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Someone mentioned this to me the other day: npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I don't know him. I have mentioned Nostr to quite a few people now and I find the sell extremely difficult. You can see that cynical look on their face like you are asking them to check out the "latest" app or bit of software. They then tell you they like Discord (like Alex here) or Bluesky and a bearish wave washes over me. You say the word "decentralisation" and their eyes glaze over. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam People think success means a big house, a fancy car, first‑class flights, luxury getaways, and glamorous events. I say the opposite. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I honestly don’t think he’s well. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Zone training is 100% the way, especially in your mid 40's like me. I like zone 2 also. Keep doing it and we get faster/better at that same rate. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I feel bad for the guy. It seems the social media mind virus took him over quite a while ago. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Thanks so much mate. Really appreciate it. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam “Bitcoin is only worth what other idiots are paying for it” npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Like @nprofile…jyxt said, the price of digital content will always trend to zero. This includes software. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ha. One year and one month clean. Spent the extra time I got back learning some new stuff from scratch. Now have a full self-hosted stack in production, including the instance of Jumble posting this note on. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Autumn layers. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Oh my god it's a double rainbow!! npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ah thanks. Really appreciate the mention. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I’m now experimenting with Pangolin on a VPS. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Precisely. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam The bear market vibes are much better. Humility in the air. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ha. The problem is real though. Especially if it’s raining, I’m basically driving on hope. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam …..and then don’t proxy your shit through cloudflare, like I have. 🤣 npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It’s undoubtedly the weak point of my self-hosted stack…….Aside from the internet going down altogether. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Depends if you get wine pairing or not. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Just got Fedora (Linux) running on a 2015 MacBook Pro with full graphics switching. Feeling proud. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I love that you love nostr and bitcoin. So I’m gonna zap you. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqsvsqt33rp4zfxe0y5c66sqdavgvsc52y4nvlgtxm9wxtwx7ynvcjqx5eqra npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Yes. If you want to sell financial services to us. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam This probably relates to the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) (Amendment) Order 2023. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It’s brilliant and looks great as a PWA on desktop. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam “Don’t be evil” npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Basically replaced Apple Photos with it. Auto uploads anything i shoot on my phone too. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam This is so true. And they give them stupid names like they are a 13 year old boy (which in all fairness, they might be). npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Immich looks brilliant as a PWA on desktop. Simply lovely. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It’s retarded being offended by this word. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam The whole series is brilliantly written. The speech from Stellan Skarsgard in S01E10, about the sacrifices and costs of being in a rebellion, also gives me shivers. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Yes! I thought I was the only one who cared about this speech. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It is harmful content though. It harm’s Google’s bottom line, control of internet infrastructure, and their general authoritarian outlook. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam 💯 Getting our ass out the door is the main thing. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Yeah, I’ve been lucky a few times. I often find the best photography conditions are the first hour or so when the snow actually starts falling. Often after that the visibility reduces and it also becomes much trickier to shoot in the conditions. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam https://blossom.firstmanphotography.com/fc2af25f857cbc232f351ec7b1e46f1818e70517e759b818deea81feb2fd432e.jpeg npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I’m ready for more nostr mountain biking content. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Thanks so much. Definitely a day to remember. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam It is the Grasmere area of the English Lake District. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam https://blossom.firstmanphotography.com/7b143f801dd7cd81ff6aa069a722ffd1705998949ecc58591fa41a7514cfac0f.jpeg npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ah man, I appreciate the post very much ( and the shoutout) and it resonates. It's been over a year now since I gave up Insta, Twit, etc. It was pure noise and i'm so much better off without it in my life. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Ha ha. I know you love a ferry. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam Good dude too. Met him at a (northern UK) meetup a while back. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I’ve got my YouTube channel set to automatically quarantine comments with links in them. The bot spam can be horrendous otherwise. npub1suftx60fq63eyhmqqqxq48qjmefuy20kkc8wdp5j6jmnssrzttusc4lmh2 adam I “subscribe” to people I like and agree with. But I also “follow” people I don’t like or agree with.
