jrollans.com is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
Ich tüftle an einer Idee zur automatisierten #Spesenabrechnung:
Eine #WebApp für #Android und #iOS erfasst Belege als Foto oder PDF. Nach einer Bildvorverarbeitung extrahiert eine #KI die relevanten Daten. Nutzer prüfen und korrigieren das Ergebnis.
Die Korrekturen sollen per #LoRA-FineTuning zur Verbesserung der Erkennung beitragen, beispielsweise mit #Qwen. Am Ende stehen strukturierte Daten und ein Sammel-PDF für die Weiterverarbeitung.
Hat jemand Erfahrungen mit vergleichbaren Projekten oder Ideen dazu? #OpenSource #MachineLearning

🔍 ScanRuler: Professional 3D Metrology, Directly in Your Browser
An interesting open-source project from CNC Kitchen that brings powerful 3D inspection and measurement capabilities directly to your browser, without installing specialized desktop software.
What makes it interesting?
* 3D Metrology: Fit spheres, cylinders, and planes to scanned geometry and perform precise distance and angle measurements.
* CAD Deviation Analysis: Compare 3D scans against nominal CAD models and visualize dimensional deviations using color maps.
* GD&T Validation: Evaluate geometric tolerances, including flatness, parallelism, and coaxiality.
* Wall Thickness Analysis: Measure and visualize material thickness without requiring a reference CAD model.
* 2D Measurement: Use flatbed scans to measure edges, circles, arcs, and other geometric features.
* Privacy by Design: Everything runs locally in the browser. Your scan files never leave your computer.
What’s particularly impressive is the engineering behind it: Gaussian best-fit algorithms, ICP-based alignment, outlier rejection, and STEP geometry support.
The project demonstrates how modern browser technologies can deliver capabilities traditionally associated with expensive, specialized engineering software.
My takeaway: This is a great example of bringing advanced computational geometry and industrial metrology to the web while keeping user data local.

Mir platzt der Arsch, wenn ich noch EIN Mal höre, man könne mit US-Konzernen IT-Souveränität für Deutschland herstellen. Hallo?! US CLOUD Act! US-Firmen müssen Daten auf Anordnung an US-Behörden herausgeben – egal, ob der Server in Frankfurt, Berlin oder auf dem Mond steht. Ein deutsches Rechenzentrum mit US-Mutterkonzern ist keine Souveränität, sondern Etikettenschwindel mit Deutschlandflagge drauf. Wer so einen Stuss erzählt, gehört zum Nachsitzen in die Schule, aber sicher nicht ins Ministerium oder ins Parlament. Souveränität heißt: eigene Anbieter, eigene Kontrolle, eigene Regeln.

If that’s the case, securing grants for #Vernissage could remain a challenge.

@teotwaki @mczachurski I believe NLnet only funds one type of project in each segment so they can fund many types of projects, they have rejected my application for Sup too, because they have funded other messenger apps already.
Check out Columnly – a multi-column client for all your ActivityPub-based accounts! 📊
Manage all your feeds in one place with a clean, customizable layout. The only feature really missing right now is automatic system light/dark mode support.
You will soon be able to self host Columnly, and expand it freely (under the AGPL-3.0 license)!
I'm looking forward to getting translation contributions, help with RTL support, and further improving accessibility (we do support WCAG and accessibility friendly layouts, themes and support).
It's a Nuxt app with typescript, tailwind and tanstack!
A shout-out to the developers behind https://columnly.social! especially @dansup ❤️
It’s great to see people building and contributing to the Fediverse. Every independent project adds to the diversity of our social web and reminds us that the internet can be shaped by communities, creativity, and collaboration; not just big corporations.
Thank you to everyone who puts their time and skills into building a more open social web. Your work matters!
