I’d say the CLI is perfectly fine, I have a config in the same folder so all I have to do is input the URL. I just switch between output directories for episode vs playlist by ‘#’ commenting out the other.

That’s shocking. Interestingly, it only autogenerated that spiel for Gemma. Gemini (2.0 Flash for Image) generated perfectly fine

That’s another thing I’m sympathetic to the US about - voter apathy is a strong beast and it’s unfortunate that the majority (in nearly any country) is not bothered about any change in power. Especially regarding those who seek to remove rights and livelihoods of certain people, as that always bites the majority in the arse.

There are Palestinian Jews, honestly how did a colony of 300m allow an unschooled pleb to run things? The USA forces their influence on other countries, so this fuckery is not limited to one country.

This has to be fake…

They’ve been subjugating the Middle East to their bullshit for half a century, it’s a normal day at this point

Motherfucker I’d better get started archiving

The trick of retrofitting any battery powered device into a wired one is to remove the battery. No matter what, Li-ion batteries cannot sustain permanent power. Expensive adapters and new Androids can regulate power well, as can automations, but the best worry-free option is battery removal.

Edit: I’ve just remembered Fairphone, they’re bossing the mobile repair ability front and have removable batteries like pre-2012. Could get one of those

I had a long running plan that played out with my GTX 1080. I wanted my server (in my bedroom) to be as quiet as possible, and the (Gigabyte) 1080’s fans, with one slightly dodgy bearing, wasn’t going to cut it. I deshrouded it and ran thermal tests in my main PC. Long story short, while in the server machine it blitzed a local Piper model (<1s processing voice commands) and Emby transcoding with Max 5GB used. I know Piper is a far cry from an LLM, but at least you’ll know that its more than capable of everything else.

Edit: Here are my notes in case it helps anyone lol

This is just AdGuard basically, I expanded my server system onto a dedicated PC that takes MUCH less power than my primary desktop, but you can run it in Docker Engine if you have one PC. As easy as running it, going to the webpage it runs on (usually IP:8080 I believe), choosing your settings, then going into router settings and changing DNS IP to the IP of the machine it runs on! Reading material

Quick tip: Use Linux or ProxMox if you go the dedicated route, but this requires some technical work. I thought I needed a more powerful CPU for my server machine when it was on Windows because it was frequently at 100% and stalling things, idling at 80% usage. I was wrong. Now running ProxMox and at least a dozen servers, it idles at 12%.

You can turn it off for a device to connect to that site, or add it globally. You can also choose which block lists you use (they’re available from a list), some are too much. If a certain request from a specific device is being blocked when the site breaks, you can tap to add it to a whitelist. I also manipulate a local Home Assistant installation to host a whitelist that can be switched on/off as requested. I just hit app -> filters -> whitelist -> en/disable

Also it can moderate all traffic. You can block or add anything, with presets for porn if you’re not about that

I got one recently by B&H Photo Video, may have got lucky but the drive was brand new and untampered, and was in plastic cushioning, in a fitted box, inside 6" of airbags, inside another box. Delivered by DHL Express.

Sometimes DuckDNS goes down partially, their servers breaking for about a week is why I purchased a domain and now host via Cloudflare.

Edit: One of my DuckDNS domains works internally, so at least it’s not a systemwide issue. Perhaps one of their relays…

Better source. HQ (ish) image at the bottom

Amazing scavenge! I’ve got a server for my partner and I, vanilla+. One mod we have pauses the entire server if nobody is online, it works fantastically and only RAM is held, minimal CPU usage. Vanilla server runs perfectly fine for my case.

Do you know if they have any online sites? It’s a shame not having a working connection to them for Jackett

You might have to try it and report back aha. It would add ‘Unknown Year’ but I don’t believe it would throw any issues

Awesome - I tried to convert to bash but took the easy way out once I learned I could install node aha.

I learned Java and a bit of py just to make my renaming easier lol - took the task down from weeks to seconds!

YSK that Google Photos will not work unless you give it access to all your media. The privacy-respecting ‘Allow access to some photos’ results in an immediate rerequest for all media.
