Thanks for mentioning SingleFile. I’m not using it right now.

Most TV apps end your trials and even paid accounts immediately. Apple rather enforces that they have to give the paid subscription till the end of the term. That’s why I like paying through Apple.

I think I’ve finished one game ever. It was GTA Vice City. Of course, not the side quests. I got the game to 49% total completion, I think, with the storyline. Then I lost interest.

I have finished Skyrim once before, a long, long time ago. I’m taking my sweet time now.

I’m slow burning Skyrim on a second hand steam deck. The plan is to finish one play through in a few years and then start again with a different character.

I reckon the problem with that is… what’s the source for the recommendations and then what’s the sink?

Like, first, how do you get all that information about music, type of music, musicians, year of release etc?

Then where do you store it? Then you come to the problem of building a robust recommendation engine. Sure that’s one step that seems solvable with open source. Not easy. Solvable.

Then, what does a person do with the recommendations? So you have to build ways to export to YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, FOSS music solutions. Perhaps plugins are the way to solve this.

Not saying it’s not doable. Just difficult.

Though I also believe someone would have tried to tackle it in their capacity in the FOSS world. Don’t know how Fedi plays into this. Maybe an online radio station?

Spotify scrobbles to LastFM. Maybe they have an API or export solution? All you would have to do is play your playlist straight through once after connecting to LastFM.

I don’t know about importing it further as I don’t know what Navidrome is.

“Content creation” IS shitposting. Interacting on social media, on the other hand, is actual posting.

Did I say there’s a back door? My bad. I meant, there’s probably a zero say that we don’t even know about.

BS. The US govt actively tells people to use Signal. Take what you will from that.

And there was a recent report about groups and QR codes. And another about CDN. Look em up.

I’ve been all in on telegram for some time now. Signal just doesn’t feel like it’s iterating fast enough. Few years ago, telegram was blazing through and signal was just a disgusting UI meant to make you feel good that you’re using encryption. That has changed.

The xAI news is a pretty big nail in the coffin. But literally every other alternative is shit. WhatsApp is fully owned and definitely farmed by Zuck for data. Their claims of encryption have eroded by everything they’ve done in AI.

Signal is definitely said to be encrypted. But you can bet there’s a back door in there. Specially with all the recent scrutiny on it in the news, hackers are figuring out ways in.

What’s even left to use?

Sorry, don’t have a solution for you. But the world is ready for another messenger - one that actually cares about people and brings features that people like. Heck, I’ll even pay for it, just like I’ve been paying for telegram.

Good for a play through or two.

He Cray.

Yeah I had no context of that. I thought the only time Pic was captured and tortured was by the Borg. Did the Cap just keep getting into shiz like this all through his career?

For real? What comes after four?

It’s self hosting. Is it home lab? Nope. Though plenty of people use VPS as a way to terminate their VPN connections and such.

Hey, my knee jerk answer was what I have always dreamed of doing it if I was immortal - cozy up with all the books ever written.

Please help me understand this. Let’s say I’m a daredevil. My job is to jump from planes and ride bikes over running helicopters, etc.

So let’s say I’m prepping for my latest stunt and there’s a high probability that it’ll kill me. What will be the alternative? Do I just, not do the stunt? Or rather, fate finds a way for that stunt to not happen, perhaps. Maybe by breaking my leg one day before the event?

OR, I can tweak that in my favor and say that there are two options - jumping over a line of burning school buses vs. over a line of running helicopters. Then am I triggering fate to pick only one of these two options (and not the option of breaking my leg a day before)?

If the latter is the case, then I would set up ever increasing death defying stunts and flood the betting market with bets that I won’t die. After all, either stunt is impressive. If the betting process won’t cut it, at least the Red Bull YouTube channel viewership will bring in the moolah for me.

If it is the former, where fate just chickens out and causes me some minor harm (or distraction) so I don’t go get myself killed the next day or the next moment, then what’s the point? Live your life and accept that if you stub your toe, it’s so that you don’t kill yourself of an embolism later. If you miss the bus, assume the bus would have fallen in the water had you been on it.

So in the first photo, where exactly is Atlantis? Bottom left?
