Somewhere between Linux woes, gaming, open source, 3D printing, recreational coding, and occasional ranting.

I gave up Bash scripting. I explicitly do “shell scripting” now, where “shell” is implied to be a POSIX compliant shell of any type.
Always has been like that.
Not one single corporation is your friend or wants to be. All they want is your money. No exceptions.
Except those who aren’t.
Can’t watch right now, but is there a list of affected devices?
Americans think that universal healthcare is communism. And for Americans communism is the pure evil and thus they prefer to die because they can’t afford life saving treatments instead of working towards implementing an universal health care system.
If you’re into watching YouTube: You can add channels as RSS into your reader. The latest 15 videos are offered via the feeds. All you need is the channel ID of the channel whose feed you want to access.
The channel ID is not visible anywhere on the page, but if you look at the DOM in the web browser via the developer console, you will find a meta entry <link rel="canonical" href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/CHANNEL_ID">
in the <head>
, where CHANNEL_ID
is the required ID. There are also websites that can be found quickly and easily using the appropriate keywords, which read out and return the ID associated with the provided handle.
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNEL_ID
If you have a lot of subscriptions, you can use Google Takeout at takeout.google.com and export the YouTube subscriptions as a CSV file. The CSV file contains the subscribed channels with their ID and title for you to parse into whatever format you need for your reader.
For Newsboat you can use this script on the Abos.csv from my Google Takeout archive:
while IFS="," read id url name; do
feedURL="https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=%24%7Bid%7D"
[ ! -z "${id}" ] && echo "$feedURL youtube videos \"~${name}\""
done < <(tail -n +2 Abos.csv) >> urls
Edit: Seems like, Lemmy messes up the code formatting, but you get the gist …
QC was such a fun ride…
It clearly had it’s moments. There were some weirdly questionable strips. I’m not following it anymore since a few years but I’m happy to see it’s still running.
He has unlimited money. I am pretty sure he doesn’t really care.
Here in Germany we learn that in school in 3rd or 4th grade (ca 9-10 years of age).
Unfortunately no-one does. Since Google basically killed it, it gets ignored everywhere.
Free public education and healthcare are awesome, too. It really shows how much we as a society have grown and left behind the dark ages where those were for the rich only.
Except it is, because the prompt doesn’t write itself. The art is writing the “perfect prompt” for getting the desired result.
Disliking AI art work just because someone used AI is like disliking paintings because someone used a paintbrush.
AI is merely a tool.
Same here. I have no clue what the latest things to watch, read, or listen to are. And I don’t think I miss out on anything. I also get almost none of the references.
5 gallons is circa 19 liters. So when the liquid is water, then you don’t need to use the 100 ml container. 1 liter of water weights 1 kilogram, so put the 5 gallons bucket on a scale and pur in 19 kilograms of water.
100 ml is pretty easy to use. You can multiply it or divide it evenly without having to think at all.
Not at all, no. The US government is and always was extremely nationalistic (not nationalist, not national socialist, those are different things) and by being that, there were and are groups that do whatever they need to do to achieve their goals (i.e. “not the goals of the opposite party”). Let it be assassination, bribery, or downright capitalism.
I would actually be extremely surprised if the republicans are not somehow involved in killing a democratic president. (I wouldn’t be surprised if it was the other way round, too.)
Keep them memorized. The old tools just work, even if MICROS~1 tries to hide them and replace them with useless crap apps.
I don’t see an issue with that at all. It’s even in the name “role playing game”. I am playing a role in that game. A role that is not me.
Whenever a game allows me to play a female character I play a female character. I am a boring white male IRL, so please let me be a magic warrior princess in my games!
