So, this is the place where I'm going to be generally hanging out and trolling around, while my Pixelfed, Mastodon, and Blacksky accounts are going to be primarily art posting accounts, and I also have a Nooki account.

I'm also going to start to be active more on here than on lemmy.org, so I'm making this my primary Lemmy account now.

I'll link the other socials I'm varying levels of active on below, plus my lemmy.org account which I'm demoting to my secondary account if that instance is going to be more unstable from now on.

  • How do I fix "This content isn't available. Try again later." On YouTube with their new ad-block blocking?

    Jump

  • Use one of the few Invidious instances that still exist while that's still an option, although I have a bad feeling this sorta thing is screwing with Invidious too because I've had a few streams corrupt when skipping through the vid before.

    Grayjay is also an option, while it's still an option.

  • Whats a good hobby to get into, as someones whos home alot with a laptop?

    Jump

  • If you have the resources to spare, grab a pad of paper and a basic #2 pencil, or a box of crayons, colored pencils, chalk, charcoal, whatever, and pick up drawing with it?

    Also, there's plenty of easy, and actually kinda fun, crafts you could mess around with.

    Although, given this is traditional art or crafts I'm suggesting, you'll also need some way to digitize it if you want to show it off online.

  • What do you want out of someone you're on a first date with?

    Jump

  • If we're compatible with each other, and also to just have fun.

  • ‘Ripping’ Clips for YouTube Reaction Videos can Violate the DMCA, Court Rules * TorrentFreak

    Jump

  • And Invidious, FreeTube, and Grayjay, and potentially even Odysee, PeerTube, and Rumble.

    Not to mention the ramifications it might have beyond video and potentially affect the very concept of fan works. Like, imagine if some innocent fanart you drew and posted to, say, Mastodon or Pixelfed, or even to Bsky for that matter, is now a DMCA violation if this ruling is extended to apply to that sorta thing too.

  • What are your top 2 favourite childhood TV shows?

    Jump

  • The episodes after Brian got killed and resurrected have gone off the deep end in terms of being outright sadistic, though.

  • 30sec IIRC.

    Jump

  • What if you downloaded your own videos to post to Odysee or PeerTube now in an attempt to at least have them on a non-Google platform? Will that be a DMCA violation even if you're the one who made those videos in the first place?

    Similarly, could something like this also put the existence of alternative video platforms like the aforementioned Odysee and PeerTube at risk too?

    Also, could this have implications for fan works now too?

    Jump

  • Modern Family Guy especially.

  • Well, I was pretty big into Magic School Bus for a while when I was still of the age to be watching that sorta thing, as in I had some VHS tapes of that show, and tbh its animation still holds up really well 30+ years on (RIP Nelvana unless things change for the better for them; they're pretty much a licensing company now for the time being), and oh, for davidgro, this was another PBS show that had a banger theme song, made by the late Little Richard, and I remember liking Clifford and Arthur well enough too.

    Rugrats was also one of my earliest memories in this regard and I liked it a lot too, and it's also really cute looking back onto it as well.

  • Coworker wants to try Linux with gaming, Bazzite or Mint?

    Jump

  • Bazzite has newer drivers, ditto for CachyOS Handheld Edition for another SteamOS clone.

  • Self-Learning Netflix Algorithm Produces Jeffrey Dahmer Stand-Up Special

    Jump

  • Workplace is forcing me to switch back to Windows :(

    Jump

  • If possible, maybe get a separate machine to throw Windows on and then keep your personal rig on Linux?

  • United Kingdom says Microsoft, Adobe, Google, Cisco will run experiments in a small city rebranded ‘tech town’. They will apply AI to schools, hospitals and businesses

    Jump

  • Fuck that, we trying to bring back mining-era company towns that will inevitably fail now?

    I hope people like having a 'New Appalachia,' because the situation in Appalachia is exactly what happens when company towns go under.

  • EPA Advances Farmers’ Right to Repair Their Own Equipment, Saving Repair Costs and Productivity

    Jump

  • Never thought the EPA of all organizations would be pro-Right to Repair given their history of fining anyone who messes with emissions gear out of existence.

  • Whats the best alternative to twitch and youtube?

    Jump

  • PeerTube exists and you can get funding through LiberaPay among other crowdfunding platforms.

  • Why Is It Harder To Move People To Open Source - Decentralized Options?

    Jump

  • You can both host your own ATproto PDS and even sign up for or migrate to third parties like Blacksky; for now. I won't be surprised if Bsky corporate started getting hostile to that and closed-sourcing ATproto and both paywalling self-hosted PDSes and C&Ding third parties like the aforementioned Blacksky at some point though.

    ActivityPub at least doesn't have that problem, and also, unless you can interface with Blacksky's infrastructure, self-hosted PDSes still have to deal with Bsky corporate's centralized infrastructure on some level at least for moderation, where if you self-host an ActivityPub instance, assuming this is on hardware you physically own and control, you own the whole thing.

  • @mudkip@lemdro.id lets LLMs spam the Fediverse

    Jump

  • I got both those accounts and the entire lemdro.id instance blocked.

  • Imagine looking at the first picture and thinking thats something to be proud of , lol, its mental illness

  • That and I was talking more about infrastructure where you could easily walk to places too instead of having to drive everywhere

  • Fuck this, I'd rather see less of this and more pedestrian-friendly infrastructure. Stroads in particular are one of man's worst inventions IMO.
