Ages ago someone wrote a bash script that would calculate your “stallman score”, essentially checking the license of every package in your system.

With the state of AI and computer vision, and legal requirements to disclose ads, i wonder if a ytdl + editing script will he the nicest way to watch at some point

We really need to tax energy used by GPU-burning projects differently. AI training, blockchain, whatever. Such a wasteful endeavour.

Also KDE here, but largely without modifications from defaults. I turn off a few things, but more or less it’s exactly what i expect from a DE without taking up too many resources. I really buy in to the K-suite apps for almost everything too, so it all works together nicely.

This begs some reflection. what is a"job", functionally? What would be needed for losing it to be good?

I suspect a system with jobs would not eradicate jobs, just change them.

Self hosting means having an application run on your own server. The easiest introduction is probably using raspberrypi to run something like Jellyfin

People pretending east Jerusalem does not exist now? Illegal settlements are still illegal …

installing was seriously easy, like in a pinch my elderly parents could probably do it. the result worries better than stock Android imo

Really strongly recommend checking it out if you have a supported devices.

i really sympathize with folks who go down an iot rabbit hole only to find it’s a huge disaster.

Most iot use cases are incredibly simple, like turning on a light in the morning. implement should take a handful of minutes.

but the more complicated the technical debt, i imagine the less satisfying the whole experience is. it’s a fun whimsical hobby that quickly becomes a farce.

but yeah iot had become not optional in some spaces. tvs and cars are the big ones i can’t stand
