Good idea!

Brands of what?

Not sure what my guy is on about. Water is now called Liquid Death where I’m at.

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 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.

Geez what’s that about?

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.

Fuck you those are skittles.

Oh yeah, I’ve got an external 140 TB nigh impossible to fill up! I don’t have download ware any more though. So there’s that. I’ve yet to explore unraid. I’m stuck with windows for now because I got on windows 11 bleeding edge for some reason I can’t remember. Stepping away means I’d have to wipe or dual boot. And I’m… lazy… haha!

Yeah I just read up a little on it. Seems it doesn’t have video out? So it only does processing? That’s kinda cool!

I don’t shy away from buying refurb electronics. But is there a problem with buying used GPUs?

Not looking forward to buying new during this tariff era. So perhaps my local marketplaces might be best…

Wow; thanks for finding that doc. Yeah, I’ve made it work on my system. But I’d like to use some of the bigger models.

Thank you for that! I’ll look at the AMD. I thought most ML tools don’t have outright compatibility with AMD though? Is that no longer the case?

The 4060 Ti 16 GB version… that sounds good. About $500?

This thing is just a 150 euro… what is it? A GPU on top of my GPU?

$28 a year??? Woah.

My recommendation (sorry for the delay in response) would be not to use it as a base. Use the image as such. It has in-built features for screenshots, for using puppeteer, etc. So just use those. Any issues with that approach?
