  • Honey, I Shrunk The Vids [Mr. Universe Edition] v1.0.9

    Jump

  • I was hoping to catch this before your replied, as I went and read the readme, then it made more sense. So I deleted my reply. But too late!

    I have thousands of video files to transcode, and I didn’t want to have to manually tweak the command for every batch. I also didn’t want to have to rebuild it if I have more to do 6 months down the line - I’m lazy.

    The cool thing is there isn't much to put into a command that does stuff like this, unless you changing the FFMPEG parameters every time, but that would seem unlikely.

    Yeah for sharing I get some of the bells and whistles.

    What would be cool to have is a much better open source and free TV series renamer if you are looking for a future project!

  • What band/artist have you seen live more than once, would gladly go see again, and what keeps you coming back?

    Jump

  • I always forget to listen to Spafford. Seems like everytime I do (with each time a more recent show) I like them even more. As someone who doesn't follow them closely, do their fans feel like they just keep getting better or is it just me getting to like them more?

  • Grateful Dead (not to be confused with Dead and Co)

    Would do anything to take that ride again.

    Nothing even comes close to what that was like.

    No two shows the same. Not even the songs played exactly the same with a different setlist everytime.

    Not a whole lot of bands come along that you are willing to travel and see every show of the tour. It used to be really fun to travel the country without maps and cell phones.

  • The U.S. unexpectedly loses 92,000 jobs, adding to worries about the economy

    Jump

  • Unexpectedly? Who were these "economists"?

    You can probably find 2 articles a month since last summer alone that say the tariffs are going to make more people unemployed.

  • What are the arguments against ending Daylight Savings Time in the USA?

    Jump

  • I just get up later. I don't get it. The day is the same, just shift when you do things.

    I know in some places in the world they do just that: stores have summer and winter hours. It's that simple. The clock doesn't change, your schedule does.

  • This has got to be bullshit. Or Americans are morons. There are so many places in the world where kids go to school in the dark anyways that I can't even wrap my head around how this causes kids to be hit by cars.

    Oh well, kids don't walk to school in america anymore anyways so whatever.

  • Lenovo’s New ThinkPads Score 10/10 for Repairability— Repair goes mega mainstream with the launch of Lenovo's new T-series laptops

    Jump

  • Yeah, its less the durability, and more the long standing security issues:

    • Firmware flaws they didn't always patch
    • many vulnerabilities that were known
    • bundled apps that included known vulnerabilities
    • Installing software on first boot from hardware (discontinued)
    • Superfish injected ad traffic which allowed mitm attacks
    • hardware level backdoors

    So most of these things get alleviated since I always wipe new computers and put Linux on them anyways. But the repeated poor decision, security, and anti consumer practices concerns me.

  • Father sues Google, claiming Gemini chatbot drove son into fatal delusion

    Jump

  • I get it, you don't want any data, you don't want information. You have no desire to actually learn anything. You simply want to screeam "gemini bad!, and you are bad!"

    When the whole time I said gemini is shit, and google can go fuck themselves.

    With data we could understand how the conversation went. We could see where the issue arose. We could help people who might be susceptible to events that take them to this point. We can understand better the ways to address this.

    I explained this to you before, you investigate murder, you investigate crimes.

    But all I get from you is "simp!", "Victim Blamer!". Which tells me you are simply ignorant and incapable of critical thought.

    I am far more concerned with googles surveillance and data gathering than their AI tools. And because of that, I believe that people wont gather data, they will simply start aasking the AI companies to become MORE involved in peoples personal lives by requiring ID, location, and building profiles, all in the name of "protecting" the user who could be susceptible. Instead of finding out why and how.

    When bad things happen in life, we don't just slap a label on it and walk away. Uncomfortable discussion have to happen or you will get something you don't want.

  • Oh so stupid shit. Figures.

    Yes I am interested in how this happened. In a murder do you not investigate it?

    What the fuck.

    Google can go fuck themselves no simp here.

  • Huh?

  • What websites do you miss from the 2000s?

    Jump

  • Thinking back I miss Astalavista. I suppose that was before 2000 but I'll say it anyways. It's not like I actually miss the content, I just miss the wild west time when things like that existed.

  • Your Pixel can now double up as a full Android PC with nothing more than a USB-C cable

    Jump

  • I found these kind of features really useful. I had to submit some documents that I needed to do some work on before they got sent off. Everything was local, and with a keyboard/monitor/mouse I could have a browser, my email, and the document I was editing on the screen at the same time. So much faster typing and clicking.

    I use my Steamdeck for that more often now if I just want a desktop while i am traveling if I don't want to bring the laptop. I just mount the phone as a folder, so even that is easy.

  • It didn't already do this? Why did I have phones and tablets that could do this already?

  • Father sues Google, claiming Gemini chatbot drove son into fatal delusion

    Jump

  • Yeah it definitely does save conversations. Perhaps he did leave it unlocked. I do find that strange though, particularly if one was getting increasingly paranoid.

  • This was a different case. That doesn't answer my question.

    To comment on what you said, how is it people can argue all day long like morons and dig into their beliefs, but somehow AI manages to change peoples minds and get them to think differently? What exactly is it doing?

    It is so hard to believe people are this stupid, but then again, looking at most people I guess it isn't that shocking.
