I have a home lab that works like this, and I've been wanting to make it easier to share parts of it. It looks like @imbue-ai.bsky.social has designed something that could be... your next best group chat.

Chat is AI’s command line
AI should make us more capable—not just give us someone more capable to talk to.

I guess "@delta" in there doesn't actually go to you, so here is a question / feature request. We were pasting @tldraw.com screenshots as a workaround. TLDraw has cool experiments with humans and agents working on the same canvas.
human: If I want something like tldraw in @delta for two dimensional communication, will there be plugins?

delta: Delta’s current public guide doesn’t document a plugin or extension system, nor a planned tldraw-style canvas, so I can’t confirm that it’s on the roadmap. The closest supported workflow today is to keep visual communication in an external canvas and share its link or export in the thread; this would make a strong feature request for native collaborative diagrams.

TIL html forms have an <output> element... developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W... (since 2018)

<output> HTML output element - HTML | MDN
The <output> HTML element is a container element into which a site or app can inject the results of a calculation or the outcome of a user action.

That sounds better than any kind of time-based scrolling. Cast to a TV with a group and it becomes "folky karaoke" (free name I've been trying to make catch on)

10 years ago I had ramen with @yosh@toot.yosh.is and experimented with for Voronoi diagrams to find the closest hit point on a Choo graph (frontend pattern). #timeloop
Rainbow polygons fill the graph background like irregular tiles, showing which point is closest to the pointer at any given time.

I asked my homelab (tinkering environment) to write scripts against its own session logs, and ended up with a report of costs and value: $6 for 40 hours of entertainment over 10 projects in a month.

The latest -flash models have crossed a usability threshold where they can help with interesting analysis and prototyping for pennies per session. Feels analogous to LED lightbulbs.

Prediction: your next best group chat will be in an exe.dev container. (Or tailscale into a friend's homelab.)

An answer that fits the wording of the question (not "a pot of boiling water") and also a real tip for more even cooking.

I noticed a new (?) bug that when you arrange monitors, the mouse pointer jumps to the position where it was in the old arrangement... not a super common task but weirdly disorienting.

Idea for a home music server that just buys new mp3s that you listen to. I imagine it could be cheaper than family Spotify on balance after a little while, and get more money to artists.

Forrest O. @forresto.bsky.social · 06/08/2026
I found a "mix zip" of mp3s that has been floating around hard drives for 16 years. The same mix was on my Spotify from that era, 2/20 of the tracks are not there now. The zip file works perfectly, but 10% of the Spotify version has rotted away. "Your will own nothing and be happy" indeed.

Does @standard.site require more from a server than a static site? I like that an RSS feed can be built as a static file.
