The people who have been developing OVOS are attempting to establish a nonprofit organization to continue development of their open source voice assistant. OVOS is derived from Mycroft, but with Mycroft AI's recent difficulties has become more of a fork. Other projects such as Neon use OVOS as a base. If you've got a couple spare pennies to rub together they could really use the help in keeping open source voice assistants around.

Do you want to display a Mastodon account's public posts filtered by hashtag?

There's a way to do it using their profile page's web address:

1. Go to the account's original page on the web (more info: https://fedi.tips/what-are-original-pages-in-mastodon/)
2. Add /tagged/(hashtag, but without the #) on the end of the original page's web address

So, for example, if you wanted to see posts on my account tagged with #Pixelfed the address would be:

https://mstdn.social/@feditips/tagged/pixelfed

I am officially an UXN+permacomputing fan now. Wow!

@voxel@masto.ai I don't use a browser extension. What I use is Firefox's built-in tracker blocker, plus setting Firefox to clear cookies on close except for whitelisted sites.

@golemwire Ack, nevermind. I don't feel well about posting about this.

Don't be satisfied with your vision for the future. Be satisfied with completing it.
So, don't be happy with saying "I'm going to do this project"; that's just a plan and an intention. If you're satisfied just with "someday I will" then you won't do it. #advice #workEthic #gamedev #creativity
