Finally public! My new #opensource web-app to learn #esperanto!
Words in Esperanto are a bit like lego bricks! Put components that mean different things together to make a word!
So why not use that to learn new words?
Add your own word components to build your personal dictionary (eg. "Malgrandaj" -> "Mal" (the opposite of), "grand" (tall), "a" (Word is an adjective), "j" (Word is plural))
So if you have a good enough dictionary, you can infer the meaning of words by just looking at how they are build which is in my opinion the best way to learn!
Some cool features include :
- Import and export your dictionary as a file
- Smart search, will automatically find if it's a component or a word you're looking for!
- Install it as an app to be able to use #offline !
- Optimized to hold and work with large amounts of data! (For fast search)
Try now and give me some feedback!

PocketPal — мобильный ИИ-ассистент с открытым исходным кодом, запускающий маленькие языковые модели (SLMs) локально на вашем устройстве. Взаимодействуйте с моделями приватно без подключения к интернету и отправки данных на внешние серверы.

При первом запуске нужно скачать модель: сделать это можно прямо в приложении. Они весят около 1–3 ГБ и требуют соответствующих мощностей телефона. Но всё же не стоит ожидать такого же качества вывода как в больших языковых моделях.

Функции и возможности:

• Автоматическая выгрузка и загрузка моделей при сворачивании приложения.
• Настройка моделей: системный промпт, температура, шаблоны чатов.
• Создание персонажей (Pals) для ассистирования (Assistant) или отыгрывания ролей (Roleplay).
• Инструмент измерения производительности (Benchmark).

Hello, friends. I've been known as "Newfangled" on Twitch and just did a re-brand of my channel. It's now called "Positive Notes" which is the name of both the channel and the show.

I'm no longer calling myself "Newfangled", but using my first given name (Dallin) as the host of my new show. So I figured I'd stop using my Newfangled account over on Universeodon and start using this account that I've had for a while but never used much.

I have been using Mastodon for years across various servers and accounts and really enjoy it. It's how social media is supposed to be. The #fediverse is amazing.

I love #music. Listening, playing musical instruments, and sharing. On my #Twitch program I share good music from my collection and good messages and stories to bring a little joy into people's lives.

I am also interested in #technology, #retro things, and #reading.

Lately I have been renewing my interest in #DigitalMinimalism and #offline things.

I am a #Christian, a disciple of Jesus Christ. I try (I fail, but I try) to emulate him - the perfect example of love, kindness, and charity.

I am interested in #nonviolence and #peacebuilding.

Fred Rogers is a personal hero and role model of mine.

Ohne Internet: Gut vier Prozent der Deutschen leben offline

Shopping, Überweisungen, Filme anschauen - vieles läuft heute online. Doch gut vier Prozent der 16- bis 74-Jährigen haben das Internet noch nie genutzt. Die Zahl der Nichtnutzer geht aber zurück.

Ma contribution à ce projet (en plus de mon site) est Wet, un client en ligne de commande.

Dans le cadre du Offline-First Software Challenge 2025, j'ai ajouté à Wet les fonctionnalités d'import/export, qui facilitent des scénarios de paratage hors-ligne, via 'sneakernet'.

#WintermuteBBS - that's my second, #Linux based #MBSEBBS - is currently #offline as I need to do some urgent #maintenance and #updates.

I will also purge all accounts that have been inactive for more than 24 months (those are quite a bunch) and keep that policy for the future.

I will notify you once the system is up again.

Added a nice RESIST picture on

thanks @mala for making it.

A lot of hurdles to take. But a ton of learning and fun! And still creeping further with hajime, my Arch Linux installer.

Currently working on issues with package lists and configuration file.
Check out the scripts on codeberg.

Have fun and a nice day!
