Great read, I was unfamiliar with this publication. Thanks for sharing.

CasaOS or YunoHost are great places to start and hold your hand the whole way, while allowing you to tip toe into more advanced setups later on as you learn.

My first thought when GPT first released was “oh this is how search engines will be able to serve ads without disclosing that they are serving ads”

It’s for image recognition. Nothing sad about it. Great feature.

Not saying you’re wrong (pretty sure you’re not) but important to remember that the reason LLMs use a lot of em dashes is because it features so prominently in journalism.

Importantly, the WhoSampled you know and love is here to stay as a standalone platform and brand. It will continue to operate much as it always has

That Matthew Hodgson quote is good.

“Unhappy users tend to be disproportionately loud given the issues at stake, and there’s a huge risk of optimizing to appease those who shout loudest in the short-term rather than find medium-term solutions which solve for everyone.”

Y’all know damn well Corridor8031 didn’t donate a dime.

I actually learned of this when the Material You Home Assistant addon updated yesterday. Kudos to the dev for being extremely on the ball.

This is a good point, I actually made that mistake once! It required their app to setup.

Amcrest seems to be the cheapest and I have good experience with them and Frigate

I see “Elon Musk” invitating me to secret whatsapp groups where he is going to give me bitcoin

I get what you’re saying is a joke, but most people don’t know about Newpipe or whatever the current alternative app is, and soon most people won’t be able to sideload anyway when Google makes it’s changes to Android.

It’s not good that Google/Meta are exposing these people to scammed for the crime of simply for not knowing how to sideload.

If you open YouTube shorts in a new account or an account that doesn’t store history the ads are nearly exclusively AI slop scams. This is not just a Meta issue.

Kapowarr is for comic books, OP is looking for comic strips.

That said it should be great for finding collected editions.

Ah I missed that. That’s great! I should look into it.

So the automation is triggered if the power draw is above a certain amount? I assume there is a smart plug? Or is it a dishwasher with Wifi? Forgive me still learning how these things work.

Looks great, can old Google location data be imported?

Good read that got me thinking. Donation supported journalism works well for NPR.

I can imagine an ecosystem in which enough people give their $50/month streaming subscriptions directly to artists and journalists.
