Hi. 👋

I am JayVii, a data enthusiast with a passion for Free and Open Source Software. I care about social inclusion & privacy. This is my personal Fediverse server, powered by ktistec. I modified its appearance with my own adjustments.

I typically remove shared posts after ca. 3–6 months. I do keep most of my own posts (for now).

I post about a variety of topics, both in German and English, such as:

#Debian / #Linux
#FOSS / #OpenSource
#vegan #Food
#ktistec
#webdev, particularly #CSS and #PHP
sometimes posts & shares about German and EU politics (#DEpol, #EUpol)

I also developed a few tiny & simple self-hostable tools to ease my life (and that of others), such as:

You can find out more about myself on my website or in my introduction post.

A truly inspiring blog post on transparent, trustworthy and independent #tech for #Europe. Particular in times where the actions of US politics & tech billionairs and their slippery slope into a fascist oligarchy finally stir up perspectives in Europe:

Because I am making some use of #S3 #ObjectStorage for both file storage and smaller backups, I am looking for #FOSS #Android Apps that can not only sync/put files to S3, but also gather data from there.

Is there anything like that out there? On #FDroid I only found two apps that can put data on S3 in a backup-style fashion. But I have not found an application that can download from there.

Medien-Outlet schreibt in einem Artikel: "Im Podcast haben wir heute Person XYZ zum Interview", schreiben aber nicht, welchen ihrer 8(!) Podcasts sie meinen.

Keiner der 8 Podcasts listet die entsprechende Episode. Unauffindbar, außer über den Webplayer im Artikel, der ebenfalls nicht den Podcastnamen nennt...

Been to Alexander Kunz Theatre in Saarbrücken last night with my family. It has been super entertaining and the #vegan menu was of course really good! Here are some food-impressions:

Image description 1: a minimally, but fancy decorated plate of beet carpaccio.

Image description 2: Orecchiette Pasta with truffel sauce and a few leaves of spinach on top.

Image description 3: A plate filled with a small serving of three types of gnocchi and different vegetables with a creamy sauce.

Image description 4: a lime and mango dessert consisting of a cashew and almond cake a mango-ragout (sorbet) and roasted nuts.

It has been a while since I worked on #serci, but here is a new feature, I've been thinking about for a while but didn't have time to implement it until today: Extended options for search engines.

https://src.jayvii.de/pub/serci/commit/4a990c43d256913923eed1acc1c206e470b54df2.html

This is actually quite a small (but IMO useful) feature that let's serci parse additional text to the search engine, besides the search term. Or, as another way to think about it, it gives the user more options to tell serĉi your intent. Options are added to the keyword with the ":" separator.

Say, you want to search explicitly on the German version of Wikipedia. You can do that now with !wp:de

Or you want to translate from German to Italian with DeepL. Just use !deepl:de/it

The new songs are particularly fitting for workouts, btw ;)

Ernsthaft: Wieso machen Journos sowas? Erkenntnissgewinn ist quasi Null. Gleichzeitig wird der LLM hype gepushed und das Narrativ, diese Modelle würden tatsächlich "verstehen" können. Ist es Faulheit? Sensationsgeilheit? #Medienkritik
