MonkCanatella,

MonkCanatella,

I know the evangelists can be somewhat overwhelming, but its popularity is not unwarranted. It’s fairly easy to pick up, has an incredibly enthusiastic and welcoming community. People like it because it’s incredibly performant, and its memory safe. In terms of DX it’s really a joy to work with. It just has a LOT going for it, and the main drawback you’ll hear about (difficulty) is really overblown and most devs can pick it up in a matter of months.

Google Cultural Institute is just plain awesome. SUPER high res photos that let you zoom in to your heart’s content. Right now in the front page you can color in hokusai’s great wave. You can explore lots of famous museums using google street view. It’s really incredible and totally free.

If you want to bulk save high res artwork of artists, not sure tbh. I’m certain there’s a way to download the high res images on GCI though

artsandculture.google.com/asset/…/rQEx7CtGiKE3yghere’s a good example. You can zoom way in and see the impasto brushstrokes and even the canvas behind it. What’s weird is that this version seems way darker than any other pictures you may find online. Not sure what’s up with that as it appears they took great care to make the photo

MonkCanatella,

Heavily depends man. It’s awful when it flares up for me. Just randomly having my hearing drop out on one side and then eeee^eeeeeeeeee^

MonkCanatella,

Well that’d be fucking dope

MonkCanatella,

I think any official integration wouldn’t be smart. Working on interoperability and a plugin to link them that way would be far smarter. This guy likes decentralization but wants to combine two very different concepts and products lol. I get it though and I love that idea. The other thread also mentions open library which is a legal version of what op posted

Louis Rossman/FUTO's YouTube app, GrayJay, now supports Sponsorblock... and shames you if you use it

Seriously this was very surprising. I’ve been experimenting with GrayJay since it was announced and I largely think it’s a pretty sweet app. I know there are concerns over how it isn’t “true open source” but it’s a hell of a lot more open than ReVanced. Plus, I like the general design and philosophy of the app....

MonkCanatella,

Eh, at least they added support for it. Good for them. Still looking at this app with some skepticism but so far seems to be doing what it sets out to do.

MonkCanatella,

cool, but I was asking as a question out of technical ignorance, not as a complaint about wayland.

MonkCanatella,

I’m confused, how can an application ship with wayland? What if the DE you’re using is on x11?

what the fuck is this?! WHat IS THIS?!

MonkCanatella,

He is spot on with how being a consumer enters you into an adversarial relationship. It’s so incredibly frustrating having to fight for what you already paid for.

MonkCanatella,

he has some very dubious takes - he’s very correct on how shitty it is to be a consumer but he’s completely blind to any systemic analysis of it, willfully I would imagine.

    MonkCanatella,

    Doubt.

    MonkCanatella,

    Ah shit, you’re right, pardon my ignorance.

    The Lemur Pro starts at $1,150 for an Intel i5 machine with 8 GB of RAM and a 256-GB SSD.

    Seems a bit expensive no? About dead on with macbook air pricing

    if you’re strictly looking at value, it’s a better value to buy a macbook air with m2 and the same stats and just install linux on it.

    MonkCanatella,

    I’m really loving bottom

    MonkCanatella,

    Why’s it asking for my address and social security number 🤔

    MonkCanatella,

    simpsons did this exact same joke lol

    MonkCanatella,

    Especially considering they were injecting affiliate links/replacing affiliate links with their own, everything they do should be seen through that lens. They literally thought it was either OK to do which means that behavior like this is going to happen and keep happening with them, OR they thought they could get away with it which ends up with the same result.

    MonkCanatella,

    This is sweet, this exact same idea has been kicking around my head for awhile but I’ve never taken the initiative.

    I did write a script (powershell lol), that uses yt-dlp to download all your subscription videos as they come in and sends a notification. Could easily be modified to work on linux and use ntfy or another notification service. ALso no need to scrape your subscriptions as it stays in sync with your currently subscribed channels.

    Guide: The idiot proof guide to downloading ebooks off IRC. With Pictures and everything!

    I’m putting this together because I posted a while ago about using IRC to acquire ebooks on Reddit, and there was a metric shit ton of interest from others in learning how to do it. Much of this info is available on the net, but it can be difficult to track down if you don’t know exactly what to look for....
