Oh I’m four days late but yes. The YouTube downloader also downloads audio, I didn’t realize they had a separate program that only downloads audio. Weird.

Do you have a link to the manifesto? I can’t seem to find it anywhere. It’s strange how little information is easily available on it; every article I see in search results is informationless fluff, with various attempts to spin something, but they’re all so unclear on what the thing they’re spinning is in the first place it comes across very strange.

To be honest I’ve always kinda thought how much things get censored is overblown, but damn, someone just killed half a dozen people (half of them children), injured hundreds more, and released a manifesto as to why they did it - yet somehow it gets buried. Instead there’s an endless stream of speculation, blame, and talk about everything else. I don’t think there could be anything in the writing that would concern me more than the degree to which it seems to be deliberately ignored.

What you’re looking for is OnTheSpot. Just ripped my library of a few thousand a few weeks ago, went very quickly and with full metadata.

+1 for MediaHuman, if you’re wanting a GUI. Super simple and powerful. It’s paid software but there are cracks around.

If I buy one song from one artist off bandcamp the artist earns about $1 from me, which I can then listen to thousands of times without them seeing another cent.

Personal recommendations, NPR Tiny Desk, movie and show soundtracks, Bandcamp, record stores, Library of Congress Homegrown Concerts on YouTube, looking into any bands you like and seeing what else the members have been in.

I find myself saying this one a lot. When I feel like I’m putting in effort and the other person won’t meet me in the middle something like this always seems to slip out, but I hate how passive aggressive it is.

Reframing it so ‘the problem’ is the problem rather than the person is a good idea. Helps with communication, and if it can be internalized, it seems like a better way to think about the conflict too.

AI has been around a lot longer than LLMs. Intelligence can mean many different things.

Error 404: Costume Not Found is a classic.

The 30% cut Steam takes is quite a bit. Considering the near-monopoly it has on game distribution, that could easily mean the difference between turning a profit and not for an indie developer.

Personally their efforts towards things I support (PC handhelds, Linux gaming) and the convenience of the platform outweigh the things I dislike, but being frustrated by its problems is understandable when people don’t really have another choice.

Quality of output depends a lot on how common the code is in its training data. I would guess it’d be best at something like Python, with its wealth of teaching materials and examples out there.

I don’t mean to imply anything magical about it, just thought I’d mention that it has some legitimate benefits beyond placebo for anyone unaware! The site linked above has all the information I was talking about, and cites the source studies too.

I hate this so much. People should be free to act like they want (as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone), because why the hell not? What’s so objectively better about acting in the ‘normal’ way? But everything outside the very narrow idea of normal is treated like a problem by default.

I have some tics that come out when I’m alone that I’ve filtered out around others as long as I can remember, and honestly I think that’s part of why I feel so claustrophobic in social situations. I don’t even know how to act like ‘myself’ in public if I want to.

Seeing people being themselves regardless of how it looks to the current typical sensibilities is the only thing that lets me feel like I might be able to do the same. So fwiw, every little bit of rule breaking you have done or will do makes the world a little better for me, and anyone else who doesn’t feel welcome. Thanks.

Not just a placebo! At least when made with a proper bone broth. There have been some studies showing it has anti-inflammatory properties, not to mention all the great nutrients it has! (source)

Your original post was asking why no Firefox forks implement that ui, but now you’re saying there’s no point when you can make those changes yourself…

That’s too bad, I just started using it a few days ago and I love it. Covers most of the customization I want to do to Firefox that’s kind of a pain like vertical tabs, alternate themes, reopen last closed tab button, etc etc. Out of curiosity, what do you prefer about other browsers/forks? Floorp seems like it covers more of the changes you’ve made in the screenshot than any other I know of, is there another one with more customization options?

Take a look at Floorp, it’s a little rough around the edges but has vertical tabs plus a lot of other nice features. Feels a lot like Vivaldi but Firefox-based instead of Chromium-based.

CDPR as in CD Projekt Red? Are they associated with GOG in some way?

+1 for PorkBun, I’ve never had a bad experience with it.

Seems like an overreaction considering how many degrees of separation the instance has from actual pirated stuff. No pirated content is hosted on dbzer0, no direct links to pirated content either. Even if a copyright holder takes issue with the community it would seem unlikely for them to target one of hundreds of instances which federate and have it cached rather than the actual source instance itself.

That being said, I don’t know where lemmy.world’s servers are located, some places are pretty strict with piracy. Even if it’s a small chance I can see how, from the perspective of an admin, it wouldn’t be worth risking the whole instance and potential legal action.

Still seems like an extreme response to me, but hey, beauty of the fediverse and all that. I chose a small instance specifically to avoid defederations like this and I’m perfectly happy with it (thanks for hosting neo).
