A new version of Invoice Buddy is out!

This update improves the new GUI a lot. It now has bulk labeling and improved sheet management as well as a much more user-friendly data structure and UI.

The current version brings IB to a much friendlier place for average users - not just for a corporate setting.

Download: https://github.com/pdschneider/InvoiceBuddy/releases/tag/v0.2.7

I'm with MTG. I'm also a voter. I voted for specific things that were run on. All of those things I voted for are being shit on by the pathological liar I regrettably voted for. Never will I make that mistake again. I 100% understand where she's coming from and I would have done essentially the same. Also, I'm not a woman 🤣

I haven't seen her vote wrong in congress on anything. She ran in being a pro Trump conservative, then when Trump flip flopped on everything he ran on, she stuck to principle and did the right thing despite the fact it destroyed her political career. I have mad respect for her. She stood up for Massie, Epstein transparency, no new wars, even stopping the glyphosate lobby. Now she's trying to unify the country under these things. She's doing everything right.

Obviously libertarian Phillip over here isn't a fan of socialist economics, so I tend to side with R's more. But the dems at least have Ro Khanna. The R's had MTG, Rand, Massie, and Boebert. But now that got cut in half.

It's about equally bad on both sides now.

I was under the impression that unlisted just made posts not public. Is there an option that still allows posts to be public but just removes them from the RG timeline?

I also think "no politics" should have a little clarity. "No politics in the RG timeline"? A more specific wording would help. I don't think you actually want to censor anyone, and I like the idea of letting people avoid politics if they want.

However, I think the No Politics rule needs to be rethought. It's a tricky issue and I respect the effort being made toward a workable solution, but in my opinion I see it as unenforceable and can easily lead down a road of either selective enforcement or even a post-woke kind of censorship where people don't feel like they can express themselves when I comes to important issues.

I think it is going to need to be amended at some point.

Unfortunately, Massie lost. It's a huge blow to privacy, as he was one of the only Republican congressmen who supported 4th amendment protections.

This election mattered a lot for the continuation of F-Droid, which is currently under attack, as well as many other issues we all post and care about!

However, I like Oregon and I don't want to completely trash the No Politics rule, so I won't push it any further beyond this thread 🧵👇

After spending time on the fediverse, I'm convinced that the old format of social media is going to be humanity's downfall.

Giant corporations gatekeeping proprietary algorithms are not going to lead us to a better future, EVEN IF they are accepted as so-called "free speech".

One thing that bothers me most about AI is the fact that it's being pushed by *every* major tech company ubiquitously.

There's no thought about the users, only making money through forcing AI on us at every turn.

Use Windows? Copilot is in EVERYTHING! Google? Gemini is EVERYWHERE.

What if I want to use my own AI? What if I don't want to use AI at all?

Within reason, people of all beliefs should be able to tolerate each others differences and be friends.

Users have full control. No data is sent out of the system by default. Offline use is expected and encouraged.

Retro-Gaiden now retains posts from foreign instances for 10 days instead of 7 and I'm pretty happy about it.

a friend of mine had to deal with Xfinity on the phone for over an hour just to get them to drop three months of charges for internet he didn't even use after he moved *and cancelled before moving*. They're terrible.

If anybody here happens to have a GitHub account, it would help a great deal to drop Pearl a star. Right now, the project is buried in search despite having a (small but present) user base and being actively maintained.

No pressure of course, but it would help a lot!

I'm sad about it too. I haven't really payed much attention to him since the early-mid 2010's, but I always liked him.

I'm questioning it too.

Leo isn't bad. My main issue is that you only get like 8 queries before they make you pay lol, and there's no native Android app - you're required to go through the browser and it's like 3 clicks where it should be 1 on mobile.

I'm with you on the crypto stuff also, but I use Proton Wallet for everything (which isn't much lol).

I have big plans as long as I have the time to maintain it lol.

I've been trying out Brave's new Origin browser. It's a de-bloated version of their main browser.

It doesn't feel different at all lol. I guess it's just for people who REALLY don't want the AI integration.

PEARL UPDATE!

Pearl now allows MUCH longer conversations by default before forgetting earlier parts of the chat, comes with 12 new personas, supports thinking models, accepts 39 new file types, has a beta release channel, and even more.

It's honestly too much to even explain with the character limit :guilded_lul: . Try it out (and help support the project by turning on beta updates if you want)!
