It's usually where i get news about custom LineageOS builds for various devices

Good looking qr codes is nice, but doing them using AI feels like a huge waste?

I run it offline too, don't want to depend on separate services.

I use TranscriptionSuite, which is focused on offline transcription, and supports Parakeet as well as whisper and others (https://github.com/homelab-00/TranscriptionSuite) The dev was sweet enough to improve the live mode GUI so that I and some friends can use it when playing on Chinese mmo servers.

I use Systran/faster-whisper-medium for real-time subtitling, but you need to get used to the context it's used it and the weirdness it translates into. Parakeet has great mandarin>CN text, but running that + a translation model has been tricky and I never got it fast.

Fun, but raising the view above a clock face would be cool. How would time perspective be if clocks were ovals? Would that change people's feeling about time? Could it help people fix sleep issues or get more productive

Then don't give UI and haltic feedback.

Ugh the part about Munich is depressing. Finding a dark clear sky spot is one of the worlds greatest joys and most awesome experiences.

Were actually making shit up to defend this, when post history is available, because?

That's fair. When you start to notice the smell, it reeks. Put some time into it, it doesn't have to be perfectly worded, it will be a fun read

There are people churning out 40k word novels daily on AO3, and they get the eyes and feedback that up and coming writers desperately want. Real content is being drowned out and ppl are hurting because of it.

One of my parents tried this to beat a deadline for product packaging.

There are now bags being sold marked "Lawn Suits", when it was supposed to be Lawn Topdressing

Exactly, you are supposed to have the know-how of how to answer this and, that too, screens away pesky neurodivergents.

I've been using OBS on wayland, they got captures working really well a few years ago.

But for VR stuff I've been going back to X11, and I was just last night trying to finish a screen capture program on wayland (w/ kde plasma) and idk I just have to do repeated screenshots ana analyze those > horrible fps, but at least I think I got that working finally after many attempts last year.

Gaming is not really an issue now with DEs that help ppl disable compositions and wine/proton.

I passed a series of those and since I remembered the questions from a relatives autism diagnosis testing I asked what they do since they are effectively filtering for things like that.

HR rep said those applicants should probably go see a shrink instead (!!???) and that was the end of me interviewing there.

The testing needs to end. The people using these tools don't know how they work, what they are testing and what blanket denials of personality types really means.

This has nothing to do with the discussion. Do you have a HN poster bot just acting like an annoyed teenager with gripes about everything? 20 day old new account, what happened to the previous ones?

I think it says inspired by HyperRogue

Some just link Israels submission urging channel members to vote for it. Some join and casually but randomly for the channel bring it up "are you guys watching Eurovision this year?" asking what people's favorites are and saying Israel is their favorite (always ends in name calling when someone says Israel sucks or isn't their favorite).

If this isn't automated id love to hear from the people behind it some time. Nice feeling relevant on irc in TYOOL 2026

I'm getting spam and harassment from accounts promoting Israels eurovision contestant, on IRC, in 2026. It's every year and probably on all newer socials too.

I like this a lot. I've been fascinated by Suzuki Toshitakas work on mapping bird sounds to syntax and want to experiment in that space too.

Ive been assisting at a wild bird rehab but not until I got pet birds (released pet birds that no owner could be found for) did I realize they make these extremely faint sounds to each other that I can sometimes just barely make out when I'm right next to them but are not the other quiet humming they make.

My mic can capture those sounds sometimes, but I don't know how to analyze for example 24h of recording in the cage to find slight variations to background noise. It doesn't have to be real-time and not bird specific (want to capture sounds they make that doesn't register as bird in the models).

If anyone has a suggestion please point me in any direction you know of. Audio is pretty new for me.

Skål! Looks like a huge effort-reliever, excited to try it out.

Sigh. The unnoteworthy useless ancient device Noone should talk about that has the features everyone wishes the newer versions had.

Yeah, it's the smells wherever you go problem.

Same thing happened while trying to find synonyms to 'dismiss':)

Since the best resource is personal recommendations, got any entry level cheap IEM recommendations?

Primarily to avoid even more headphone dent, not an audiophile

Yeah, but I guess harder for the professor to check up on too. It's a course on a specific kind of creative writing so human feedback would be QUITE helpful instead of AI responses about how good parts are.

Taking a distance uni class now to maybe swap away from dev work and my submitted works that are to be reviewed and commented on by other students all come back with AI generated feedback and it's making me go insane. If I needed AI feedback I'd go ask an AI but for any communication now it's a cointoss if you're getting a human reply.

Its absolutely lossy and you'd have to know a lot about each piece to know how big the loss is.

Had a very similar one, I wasn't working frontend but had a dream about a frontend vulnerability that also proved to be true. I dreamed about it, and assume it was because it's the kind of thing that bugs me and while dreaming I had some time to think about things other than the code at hand.

Blessing/curse that meat is so expensive in Scandinavia that good vegan options actually became competitive. I know meat is dirt cheap in the US =/

The difference might be there in regards to Iran, with it's global market impact. But it's not there in regards to human life or suffering. That was made _very_ clear during the electoral campaign. But now it's _very different_ because it's "them" doing it and we can say we were always against this.

We have to say "us good, them bad" because we're voting the same way next time, and we're not planning to vote for something bad, right?

No-one supports the war now. But Palestine just had to go? It can't be about _war_ or loss of life, and the people caring can get f-ed we don't need your votes.

But sure one side is extremely against anything like this but unfortunately only get to demonstrate it when in opposition and unable to do anything.
