like the technical depth their projects go to are interesting and pretty cool. but their application? fucking disgusts me.

so I'm sitting here listening to the presentations of my peers and like 70% are AI language analysis tools for corporate hellscapes. e-commerce, advertising effectiveness and social media, are the most common use cases.

when did "the smartest kids in the country" become mindless advertising drones???

@pagrus yeah you should be able to do that fine. the built in webserver works fairly well in my experience. the most trouble i had was getting the visualizer to work over a network.

@pagrus mpd is rock stable and also *super* brittle. im fairly sure it's still getting updated?? maybe im confused.

i used it for a long time before switching to libresonic because i wanted to cache music on my phone easily. what are you looking to do with it?

@ElfLord
ive found that practising gratitude immensly improves my mood, even though I'm constantly bitching about things too :)

it seems people are more "fighty" now than i remember from a couple months ago

@DistroJunkie
thanks for letting me know :)
i was fairly sure it didn't
@RussSharek

@RussSharek
fair enough. I'm running Gapps so I can't test either. but until someone confirms otherwise i think it makes sense to assume it works without GCM
@DistroJunkie

@RussSharek
hmm it does appear I'm mistaken. though tbh i dont have the technical expertise to say, because ive heard that this PR wasn't everything that would be required for GCM to no longer be a requirement.
do you have experiential knowledge that it does work without GCM?
@DistroJunkie

@RussSharek
are you referring to the PR moxie made? i dont think that led to GCM no longer being a requirement but i could be wrong. noise is part of the CopperheadOS fdroid repo.
@DistroJunkie

@DistroJunkie
are you trying these out because signal requires Gapps?
