Re proper analysis: Intentional or not, you did a homophobia in plain sight. Just eat the humble pie and give the weird conspiracies a rest.

…and as OP just pointed out, it’s an open source project? That’s relevant IMO.

Huh. There is a worrying lack of license information, yes. I didn’t even notice.

Yeah, but we’re not looking at the root cause here. Their purpose is to train energy glutton, error prone “AI” even if experience teaches us that those ML models fuck up more often than confirmation bias allows.

“AI” is a bourgeoise and Capitalist tool and, same as with cryptocurrency, we cannot dismantle the master’s house with the master’s tools. Fuck AI down the drain. Make things with your own minds, your own hands.

It’s also skewing the history lesson to peddle cryptocurrency. Not all information is equal.

This reads like a whole lot of research was boiled down to fit the “barely an article” constraints of a casual news outlet. The outline is all over the place but seems well-intended; it’s just not clear what information we’re supposed to take away from this.

Kudos for mentioning GNU Social, Zot and Diaspora, but I’m not really sure any of them are relevant anymore?

No, of course not. I thought the movie sharing was your primary concern, sorry if I misunderstood. Hope this solves at least part of your problem.

First I’ve heard of Virpus but thanks for the heads up. More than 50% packet loss does not sound like a working infrastructure, much less one that should be marketed to consumers.

I’ve never done this myself but if you want to keep it simple and be able to play all video formats, why not just stream from VLC?

I’m happy to be corrected on this, but it seems the simplest solution to a potentially complex problem. Everybody uses VLC, right?

I’m with you. 720p unless I can’t find lower than 1080 — for my setup there isn’t much point. The TRaSH guide parameters make my head ache thinking how much I’d be shelling out on bandwidth and storage for no discernible difference on my home theatre.

Can we just dwell on the subject line of “MISSING HAIR GOODS”? 🤣

Nice, I’ll see if it can replace ye olde taskbar standard for me 👍

Oh no, I’m not Wayland ready yet. I still use Openbox for crying out loud 🤣 Tried and true still works for me but I’ll give Rofi a shot!

I dunno, Odo’s morals are very much tied to his need to maintain control and appearances. Yes, that aligns perfectly with his shapeshifting ability 🙂

As a Doctor Who viewer, I thoroughly approve the “timey-wimey stuff” line. And as I’m currently rewatching Voyager I’m so glad to see the recurring crew in Prodigy ❤🖖

Also countries that probably started out socialist but took a sharp turn into authoritarianism and under-the-hood oligarchy… You know who you are.

You’re right, I wrote one thing but my head was still at the general economy matter! Will edit.

I’ve had good experience stitching parts together with handbrake. Honestly, it’s much easier than importing to an editing suite (and getting the export settings right 😬).

Rom was in way before SNW:
