IINA is based on MPV, so I would assume that with a custom OSC, mpv can also look like this.
edit: went looking https://github.com/maoiscat/mpv-dark-box is definitely not what youre looking for, but an example. It might be possible to modify this to have a blurred background instead of a black background.
https://github.com/stax76/awesome-mpv has a bunch of info about customizing mpv, with a On Screen Controller section.
At my last job, they were trying to put LLMs in charge of doing data stuff to avoid typos, and it was just easily provably making up data.
Automation is not LLMs/GenAI.
Imagine having a router with an AP built in. We don’t use that consumer tier stuff around here. 😎
Amazon Sidewalk means that PiHole or AdGuard won’t stop anything, because the point of amazon sidewalk is that if a device can’t find a usable internet connection (ie, you didnt set up wifi, or you dont have wifi), it can still function by connecting to nearby open networks, or perhaps even someone just walking by with a phone that it can piggyback off of.
So setting up a pihole prevents it from phoning home on your network, which will just prompt it to jump to another network potentially.
The question is just “how aggressively does this device want to phone home?” Some devices will actively seek out ways to phone home if blocked, some devices will try to phone home and give up if blocked. Some devices don’t try to phone home at all.
Not phoning home is ideal, a pihole will (probably) keep a device that stays on your network under control, and you should just not buy things that actively will work around your intentions to do whatever it wants without your permission.
But this person has already bought the thing, so “dont buy it” isn’t an option. But “don’t use it” might be. Depending on which category it’s in. (which I do not know, just trying to illustrate the bigger problem with Amazon Sidewalk)
If someone else is getting paid the most amount of money, I’m happy to let the most amount of work fall to them. “Sharing the responsibility” doesn’t make sense if I don’t get to share the reward. It’s a company, not a community or a family.
You don’t have to have been a slave to have dealt with racism. Enough people still get really excited about their confederate flags that clearly the era is still heavily topical.
The word “confederate” means nothing beyond referring to a type of government, but when I hear it, I think immediately of the American civil war. Even though that ended in 1865 so I was never alive to witness that.
That’s not how word associations work.
Yeah. theres a fine line between advocating for positive change because it’s the right thing to do vs because it makes you look good. Theres a fine line between being an ally and empty virtue signalling, and those things may not look different within the scope of a single interaction. It can sometimes take a bit to understand if someone is genuine or just performing.
The point of political correctness is that it’s always things you’d never consider… but someone else does. I’m not here to say whether things are right or wrong or if “master” is good or bad. but you perfectly highlight the reasoning behind it.
To you, the only thing that comes up is the technology context. And that’s perfectly reasonable. To someone else, the unrelated slave owning context may just be tightly coupled with that word, and that immediately comes to mind when they hear the word regardless of context. And someone in that scenario is probably not having a positive correlation with the word.
So a group of people have a very understandable reason to have a negative correlation with the word, and it’s super easy to use a different word, so it seems to make sense to just use the other word.
All my git scripts these days have a $(git remote show origin | sed -n '/HEAD branch/s/.*: //p') in them, which just fetches whatever origin calls the head branch. so if I want to rebase from main/master/prod/lead/front/etc … the command will figure out which one to use for me.
In my day, the start button hasn’t been invented yet, so Ctrl esc didn’t help much. But by the time windows 8 came around, I was using that specific shortcut. I use alt+space now to invoke my launcher, because in i3wm/swaywn using super for shortcuts meant that using super for the launcher felt a bit conflicting
I have a preference towards keyboard shortcuts, but I dont think I’m in any way anti-mouse, I’m just very pro-keyboard. If there is a quick easy keyboard shortcut, I’ll almost always use it.
Honestly, back in the windows 8 days, I never understood the backlash about the start screen/menu. My workflow was “hit windows key, type name of app. hit enter” and that workflow didnt change with the full screen mobile centric menu, so it never felt problematic to me. Plenty of other problematic things about microsoft and windows, but “But the start menu is full screen!” wasnt one of them for me.
These days there are enough “If we brick your computer, it’s not our fault” caveats that are just basically EULA level nonsense…
He ran: sudo apt-get install steam (after having issues with the GUI)
He got a prompt that said You about to do something potentially harmful. To continue type in the phrase 'Yes, do as I say!'
Steam is a 3rd party app store (🙄)… I get the same kind of fearmongering messaging on my phone when I try to install apps. The warnings say “This could break your computer!”
So he didn’t read the whole message. but asking a computer to install steam and then saying “yes really” when it double checks feels like a reasonable flow.
Should this has prompted him to go “Wait, this still says its removing pop-desktop, that can’t be right?” Probably. But honestly he was doing everything by the book on how to install steam. If he didnt say yes, he was going to be blocked on not being able to install steam, and the video would have highlighted the bug in a different way.
He was using a distro with a MASSIVE bug in it and that was really the problem, not his lack of double checking things.
I’m going to count vim, or any other IDE as a tool. You don’t just will your thoughts into the computer (at least most people don’t, that I know).
Or, y’know, don’t do illegal things and it doesn’t matter. That’s the point of fines being a deterrent
Given his history, if he had to sue someone to be able to use a title, it’s probably not a legitimate title.
Sometimes you need to specify in config which clipboard to use on unix systems that might have multiple clipboards too
There are vim plugins for ai chat bot integrations. Vim is a perfectly robust IDE that can be as dumb as any other
Depending on the UI/app you use for Lemmy, you may only be able to pick languages you have set on your profile (My mobile app lets me pick any language, but the default web UI (shown above) only shows languages on my profile).
I agree. The best part of the fediverse is the diversity.
However, for someone who doesn’t speak this language, having it marked as English content is not helpful. Would be very nice to have content properly tagged as the actual language it is in, so that users can opt to see content in languages they understand, would be great.
I don’t have a language filter on, so this wouldn’t affect me, but language tags and filters exist for this very purpose, so it would be nice to see them properly used.
I switched to vaultwarden back when it was bitwarden_rs due to the crazy overdone bitwarden docker setup… and then started using some of the licensed features. I have a home organization that I use to share passwords with my family. So now I can’t switch back to bitwarden official (even lite) unless they provide me a way to handle that.
I’m not opposed to paying them, but I am opposed to subscriptions for access to something I’m hosting on my own server. So a subscription license isn’t happening. I don’t see a reason to leave vaultwarden at this point
