Since the meme the other day that showed the difference between eyes-to-the-side prey and eyes-to-the-front predator i can no longer unsee it!

This is gonna be controversial but to give this another perspective…

A long time ago me and my buddy role-played racist police in gta (not against other real people though) we are generally into really dark humor, the more evil and horrible the joke the bigger the contrast with how we actually are on the inside and we laugh at the absurdity of that which makes the experience funny while the joke itself never is.

But context is everything, we are about as anti racist as it gets irl, roleplaying the absurdity of racist police it is a way to process that this fucked up thing happens in our reality.

It affirms what we already know, racist behaviour is not just wrong but also incredibly stupid and there is no reasonable explanation on why a person would be like that besides some irrational and dangerous mental illness.

There is a story that gets passed down in my family from the time a pocket watch was considered luxury.

Allegedly to know whether it was time for a break, end of work. The boss would just look at his watch and say nope. Without anyone able to verify.

So my ancestor saved up their money and bought a silver pocketwatch to call the boss out when he cheated, a fancy one presumably because a cheap one could cause an argument that it doesn’t keep time as well as the one the boss had (it might have been the exact same one as the boss idr)

We still own the watch.

“to craft” is key here.

Free movie editing on windows peaked on fucking vista.

Is there a joke here or is it because i am going to a funeral this week that i can’t find it?

Meta ai not bothering with user consent is very on brand. It learned from the best.

Disgusting for sure but thats a really bad argument to make something illegal. It’s the same rhetoric used to ban queer sexualities.

The generative ai is often based on real stuff and regularly ends up being deepfakes of real people who are affected, thats not victimless.

I am not talking about people who have easy acces to processed foods.

I don’t have exact stats nor know how big% of the world that is but people going to bed hungry and being underweight is absolutely still happening.

If that 60% of people who aren’t weren’t occupied with working hard not to starve they might take offense to your use of “we” (Satire)

I stream from self hosted sources, best of all worlds. No enshitification.

New media is acquired for free from the public libraries and then ripped, which under my local laws is perfectly legal.

Its another thing to literally be so autistic that the extremely bad repercussions simply don’t matter.

It wouldn’t really be a choice on my part. If society finds my existence so offensive they execute me for it thats a problem for their conscious not mine, i will die some day anyway and i am content to do so for not betraying what i know is right.

Feels bad for my family though but being an example of making unethical compromises is worse.

Accidental zomboid meme

First I hear of if but a quick scroll shows it mostly to organize an existing collection so you would still need to download.

I put them straight into jellyfin which works fine for me.

Autist here, i refuse orders on principle, the only way people can get me to do anything is to have me decide that i agree on doing so.

My expectations if i was ever forced in a military setting would be to get punished for Insubordination at a constant rate, i assume to get beaten, locked up, be given the extra shitty food (which i just wouldn’t eat).

When it comes to being put under pressure i have a lifetime of experience. They can hurt, torture me all they want but will never rule over my independent thoughts.

I am no hero, nor a vigilante but simply holding on to what i know is right is what gives me strengt. And while i expect coming out bruised, broken and traumatised it will stil not be close to the horrors my own mind will inflict on me for going against my nature.

Whether I would actually shoot someone giving me orders, depends on the person, the context and the orders. But chances are they will already know i am more trouble then worth something to them and wont be handed a weapon.

I wont be home till quite a few hours.

But also its general boilerplate enough an ai can help you get you one according to your own preferences.

There are also a number of examples online.

This one looks pretty interesting https://github.com/panchi64/auto-ytdlp

Laughs in

Txt file with favorite channels as input for a yt-dlp download script schedule. Combined with a selfhosted invidious and freetube desktop app for other then favorite videos.

Honestly I am really tired of jumping trough hoops, have to make sure yt-dlp and invidious use a proxy (cloudflare warp) or google will ban your ip for being a bot.

But having to deal with the actual YouTube site or reopening my google account is worse. Its not even (but still also) the ads at this point but pure resentment against big tech.

The only solution is getting a smart fridge for each household member.

I am pretty sure anyone will still be able to install a distro/fork from a free country, but steam is unlikely to go this route because convenience is part of the package. They may not even care to resist because they already ask your age for the steam store.

I am more curious what this will do for non standard devices with multiple users. Even kitchen equipment may run a derivative of linux these days and they don’t come with keyboard access.

Linux is just a kernel.

Redhat with fedora and steam with the arch based steam os will be the ones that have to implement it.
