  • The real winner of the streaming wars.

    Jump

  • Yeah I run a small service for friends and its almost all Usenet powered now. I still like to seed torrents anyway just as an extra fuck you.

  • Thank you for posting those links, while I'm not sure the person you replied to was asking in good faith, I myself was wanting to see an example after reading the discussion.

    Seems like even if it's not fully open source it's a step in the right direction in a world where terms like "open" and non profit have been co-opted by corporations to lose their original meaning.

  • If it was actually programed that way then yes you could go in and adjust that, but the model itself is not censored that way and has no problem describing all sorts of Chinese tabboo subjects.

  • Open-source Deepseek R1 dethrones commercial AI, now allegedly being hit by cyberattack

    Jump

  • Do they not know it works offline too?

    I noticed chatgpt today being pretty slow compared to the local deepseek I have running which is pretty sad since my computer is about a bajillion times less powerful

  • Should We Consider a Decentralized/Federated Alternative for Search Engine Platforms (Chrome, Gecko, etc.)?

    Jump

  • That's not really how browsers and web standards work

  • Have you ever won something? A sweepstake, competition, or other? What was it? Tell us your story.

    Jump

  • I was a volunteer working at the first LinuxCon in 2009, I worked in the expo hall and at the end of the first day one of the booths had a raffle to win an android G1 developer phone and I ended up winning.

    The best part was, by winning the phone instead of having to buy it through t–mobile I was able to keep my service without having to pay for adding data and it was a couple years before I had to actually start paying for data.

  • The U.S. just pledged hundreds of billions to protect its AI leadership. A Chinese startup with a ‘joke of a budget‘ may have already undercut those hopes

    Jump

  • I'm using the 8b model and it's having no problem telling me about China's atrocities.

  • Gen Z is ditching iPhones for $100 'feature phones,' and the numbers don't lie

    Jump

  • Tello has a plan with no data for under $10 a month

    Finally sorting by recent comments pays off!

  • What's a good private tracker for music?

    Jump

  • Lidarr+arr-scripts has some things that fill in missing albums from deezer and YouTube music.

    I've not found a good torrent tracker for music but drunkenslug with usenet has a good amount stuff

  • Why is copying to USB stick on Linux so damn slow?

    Jump

  • Very strange... So it sounds like you're using whatever the default file manager is for your desktop, there really isn't any reason the filesystem type would make things that much slower. Something must be very different about your system to be slowing transfers down that much.

    I would use iotop to see how much data is being written, where, and what speeds it's getting but if you prefer a graphical version of that maybe "system monitor" is available to you in gnome or whatever desktop you use. You've probably already tested other drives I guess, maybe try just booting a fresh live USB of something and see if the problem persists there too.

  • Why is copying to USB stick on Linux so damn slow?

    Jump

  • Do you have the same speeds when coping say a single 1gb file? A lot of small files introduces a bit more overhead. Rsync can help somewhat

  • AI Subtitles Are Coming to VLC— Get Ready!

    Jump

  • Im curious What makes what VLC is doing qualify as artificial intelligence instead of just an automated transcription plugin?

    Automated transcription software has been around for decades, I totally understand getting in on the ai hype train but i guess I'm confused as to if software from years past like "dragon naturally speaking" or Shazam are also LLMs that predate openAI or is how those services worked to identify things different from how modern llms work?

  • Joe Rogan Nods Along As Mel Gibson Claims His Friends Were Cured of Stage 4 Cancer By by ivermectin, fenbendazole (another animal dewormer), and methylene blue (a fabric dye)

  • What are good software options for Mining Bitcoin on Manjaro with a Powercolor 6800XT?

    Jump

  • The software from Unminable is Windows only but you can mine on them with any other Linux based mining software.

    Monero isn't directly mined with GPU but if you look under "coins" section on moneroocean you can mine other algorithms and get paid in XMR using them.

  • SimpleX > Signal; Matrix for privacy and anti-censorship

    Jump

  • How is simplex going to turn a profit for the people who've currently invested in it? This is why things get enshittified, they have vulture capitalists helping them start out and no one thinks about it till one day it comes time to pay the piper and features start getting broken, ads get shoveled in, and unless enough money is generated the app will eventually fail.

    I hope simplex finds a way to go non profit, until then I can't trust their business model to not shift in the future.

  • Gotta make that Q3 line go up somehow

  • What do you host on your backup servers?

    Jump

  • Lot of people confusing a redundancy with backups. My backup server is currently doing its part providing main services due to a bad RAM stick causing all sorts of chaos before I figured out it was the root cause.

    I normally have all my dockers backed up and not running but ready to startvon the second server. Most of my data is from sailing the seas and so it can be restored by the ARR stack fairly well. I do backup a few key things like my PGP keys and keepass but the chances of all 5+ of the systems I'm actively using failing all at once is pretty minimal.

  • How to deal with Mom who CANNOT learn how to use a password manager, but demands I "fix it"

    Jump

  • True but enough do that it annoyed me to the point of disabling the autofill on my system, so maybe for this person it would be an improvement

  • How to deal with Mom who CANNOT learn how to use a password manager, but demands I "fix it"

    Jump

  • Can't you setup whatever manager to autofill the password?
