"Enshittification" is selling people on VC garbage that's just as easy & convenient as bittorrent «but legal!», up until they stop using bittorrent, at which point you just turn the thing precisely as annoying and expensive as the one that made people start using bittorrent to begin with.

@npub1aq0…py77 with Lumi's upcoming second heat, ugh, I *definitely* don't want any of this.

"Open Source Pet Tracker" update:
I haven't had much progress or time to work on this lately but holy wow someone actually did the hardware design on a pet tracker built around the same Nordic chip recently and it's fully open-source, hardware *and* software that you can manufacture/3D-print for yourself!

@npub1aq0…py77 is Abby going to have puppies at any point, or are you keeping her intact on health grounds?
(Lumi is not supposed to have pups due to a color fault, but based on all my reading I decided "not before 2 years old, then re-evaluate" on neutering but so far I'm leaning towards just letting her be...)

She is learning to, umm, play the… cheese??

A rare moment of tranquillity in the house otherwise known as “pandemonium, the end of days, just utter and total derangement”

So, if @npub1aej…6frf
1, has a leash attached
2, someone is holding onto the leash
…then that means she is not off-leash, right?

Super exciting recently published paper on neurological evidence of referential understanding in dogs, a first in all the animal kingdom!
https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(24)00171-4
What this loosely means is that dogs seem to understand the *meaning* of words when they refer to various objects very similar to how humans do, and their neurological responses are stronger when they (reportedly) knew a given word "better", further strengthening the study's findings!
