It’s here, say hi to neubot —> https://neubot.joshatticus.site
it’s a semantic parsing (a subset of natural language processing) chatbot kinda like Google Assistant or Siri. Even better, it doesn’t use LLMs.
it’s currently in beta with so much more planned for it, it already has basic clock, weather, search and spotify* integration and we plan on adding way more in the very near future.
*spotify has been implemented however I’m waiting on approval from spotify to allow everyone to use it, and you may not be able to link your account until it is approved, in the meantime I can manually approve people who are particularly interested, just let me know :)
I still can't believe that https://spinningduck.mitsuaky.com was euthanised so I made my own, https://duck.joshattic.us
neubot 2025.06.22 is here with a few new features and improvements!
You can now sign in with JoshAtticusID (https://id.joshattic.us), one ID for all my projects (& more! you can create your own OAuth2 apps from the dashboard to integrate JoshAtticusID into your project)
Improved semantic parsing (greetings inside words like hi in spaceship will no longer be detected)
You can now better integrate neubot into your app with app tokens! Designed in a way where nothing has to be kept secret, so you can use them in your website without a server, you can allow users to sign into neubot within your app to access neubot integrations and extended quota. Currently my documentation is not very good but accessible here https://github.com/JoshAtticus/neubot/blob/main/API.md
having a job is awesome i can buy stuff like my new domain that im waiting on nameserver changes to propgate, joshattic.us
i just had to lie and say i was a us citizen to get it and they also accepted my australian po box
Linux on a TomTom XL IQ Routes hell yeah, you can't do much but it's still cool thanks @micahlt for your modified opentom, took a bit of tinkering but I got it to work :)
update: it stops booting after a few boots, have to keep replacing the opentom folder with a fresh one
it crashed 1674km in :(
currently my tomtom is running a 7000km route from my house to the other side of australia in demo mode we’ll see how far it gets before it crashes with 64MB of RAM
currently 100km down and just 105 hours to go

I’m stupid I was never supposed to get a shipping box the support person was wrong they sent me an email 2 days ago saying I had to take it to Australia Post and they package it so I did that today.
While out I got a mint condition Galaxy S2 (GT-I9100T) from ewaste with no battery so I had to steal one from my other S2, and an absolutely dogshit HP Pavillion TouchSmart 11, that thing actually belonged in ewaste, I’m talking 4GB DDR3-667, 1GHZ AMD A4 and a failing mechanical hard drive, I was also somehow able to fully charge the battery in 15 minutes, so I checked the battery health and it literally has 8 % battery health, or about 1 and a half airpods 2 cases.
oh and I went to a thrift store and got a casio classpad 330 for $4 (fully working but no stylus) and a tomtom xl with iq routes for $5 which I’ve already hacked and gotten pirated maps and attempted to boot linux unsuccessfully with https://github.com/micahlt/OpenTom

they're doing windows updates now after restarting my computer multiple times
I finally got pissed off enough that Dell killed my Face Recognition and Fingerprint Recognition on my XPS so I contacted them and they're remote controlling my computer and the support person just tried to GASLIGHT ME into thinking that my computer doesn't have IR emitters, so I took a photo of them and sent it to my computer and they tried to close it, then they opened Dell’s website and opened the system configuration tab and right there it said “ HELLO, IRLED”, which is Windows Hello Facial Recognition and the guy just closed it and didn't say anything and he still hadn't said anything but he's updating my graphics drivers for the third time
Why on EARTH do we still use mAh as a unit to measure battery capacity in the big 2025, it's dependent on voltage, yeah my battery has 9 quadrillion mAh at 2 millivolts, we should be using Wh instead

I've discovered how to make temporary tattoos with a cricut machine, pen, transfer tape, heat and pressure and I'm not unstoppable
Android 16 is absolutely BEAUTIFUL, and not only that but it has MASSIVELY improved battery life on my pixel, I've been able to get 7 hours of screen on time on a full charge compared to an absolutely pathetic 3-4 hours previously on my Pixel 8 Pro
