:: Phofee ::
dev:: anon
tools:: SvelteKit, PostgreSQL, Drizzle
link:: https://phofee.com/
repo:: N/A
progress:: Live

I basically made a shittier alternative to Instagram because I hate the ads and they compress the hell out of my images.

There are two notable features: The ability to post multiple images with varying aspect ratios, e.g. panoramas. The second is that all images in a single post are shown at the bottom, instead of a single image gallery you click through.

I tried to minimize the information that is stored from users. I also currently only do Google OAuth, so I don't have to store passwords or do email verification, etc.

It uses SvelteKit 5, so you should be able to use the site without JavaScript.

When will we have actual, functional Star Trek "Computer, do what I want" style AI?

Example:
>Computer, find me that thread on /g/ that I meant to reply to but forgot, it has a post that says something like XYZ and an image that kind of looks like so-an-so in it
and it can do it.
or
>Computer, filter all posts that look remotely like a soijak

When do we get something that is directly integrated with our daily tasks and can do shit for us with only basic abstract instructions?

>inb4 ai deletes your hard drive
obviously some safeguards are requisite
Right now, most AI I see are dedicated to generating images or answering technical questions/generating code. I want AI to just greatly improve the efficiency of every single stupid thing I waste time on during the day, even if it's only like 80% accurate.

To be fair apple had automatic email responses that took voice input and dictation, and would announce when and from whom you’ve received mail as far back as 2006. My buddy from achool’s father was an apple rep for a computer store so he got the retatdefly expensive stuff comparatively cheaply. Voice to text and text to voice was basically solved almost two decades ago, but only for niche or very specific contexts. It’s the generalizing that has proven difficult.

Just install heroic flatpak and put game folders in
/home/username/Games/Heroic folder

Games should just work.

Though you need to be aware that the difference between steam vs heroic is that steam automatically installs visual redist runtime dlls, directx dlls like d3dcompiler_47 that are necessary for DXVK with DX11 to work properly.

Most games dont need any special installs in the prefix but some do and if you're not using steam, you have to install it yourself on heroic. For example binding of issac rebirth needs openAL DLL specifically to work under proton. Stalker anomaly needs d3dcompiler_47 for DX11 support as well as 2015-2022 visual redist.

I think bottles comes closest because they have a gaming focused prefix option that installs all the stuff normal games would need but bottles doesn't have a GUI for game images like heroic

All good, nonny.

I only have one computer at the moment, and I'd prefer to just stick to one OS or the other. I don't mind going in raw and figuring things out as I go, though. I think the biggest thing for me would be making a habit out of using timeshift and learning how to navigate Mint directories. I mostly just want to make my computer look pretty and maybe run some old games on the side.

I'm playing with gimp right now, and it's not as complicated as I thought. I think I can get used to this.

with Python it's
c(b(a()))

this is such a baby-tier example that it is almost not even worth responding to.
anyway, most people are not using Lisp because Lisp does not give them jobs and they do not care about autistic pursuit of perfect elegance in programming.
none of this changes the very basic fact that Lisp is really not all that different from other languages. you have data structures. you organize data into data structures. you manipulate those data structures. C does this. C++ does this. Rust does this. Python does this. Perl does this. Powershell does this. Bash does this. Cobol does this.
Lisp is just particularly useful for metaprogramming, which most programmers do not see the need for, because the only times they would use metaprogramming is if their libs did not already solve those metaprogramming problems for them (for example, React's JSX would be trivially implemented in a Lisp).

you realize this is kind of dumb, right? its not a case, its that the usual numeric operators (+,-,*,etc) are first class functions no different than equal? or null? or eval. They take in arguments exactly like these functions. It makes no sense why you must single them out in a coherent system

>the main purpose is to enable undercover agents(...)
This excuse is obviously false and ridiculous. I'm just a jobless loser and without thinking much I can give you less suspicious ways for them to communicate than using Tor:
They own a website that looks normal and legit, like a small forum about video games, which is really that, but which real purpose is to be a hidden way to communicate. They purposely enter three wrong passwords to login to that forum, which looks totally innocent, the websites just displays "wrong password", but server-side something happens, this username entering these three particular wrong passwords had a meaning. The "fake" website sends the "translated signal" home. Perfectly not suspicious.
Variant: the three wrong passwords on that username makes the website display a different page than usual, a hidden chat page, with document uploading features and all, so the agent can communicate directly. It works only once though, so if the enemy tries it again, the website just displays "wrong password".
Another idea is to post a comment on something like a certain youtube video. There were several predetermined comments, all looking perfectly normal but with each a hidden meaning.
