  • I personally have been using a BenQ W1070 for about 10 years. I couldn't go without it. It's constantly connected to my PC with a long HDMI cable and I just project on a clean white wall.

    I went through 5 lamps changing most of them myself so it's rather not expensive if you just change the lamp without casing.

    I hear a lot of people say that you need a proper screen but I think it's mostly bullshit at least for basic 1080p projector.

    Use online calculators for VPs to check the throw distance and everything is good and as long as the wall is white and smooth IMHO it's fine for an already good viewing experience.

    The biggest mistake IMO for VP owner is to set it up on its own separate to their PC.

    My VP is just an extra screen I switch on when I need to watch something but it's never complicated. I switch it on and move YT or VLC to that screen.

    A VP of good quality is really not that expensive if you change the lamp yourself and it provides a really comfortable way to watch content. Highly recommend them.

    For sound I went for a fairly common Logitech Z906 for 5.1 support.

    Honestly it's a great setup I bought 10 years ago and I never regretted it.

    PS : Also highly recommend one of these wireless Logitech media keyboard. The one I have from Logitech has the same age as my old VP and it works still perfectly. I change the batteries every few years and it let's me comfortably control my PC when I'm on the couch watching something on the projector. Only regret is not taking a wireless keyboard with backlighting because with a VP you tend to often be in the dark :)

  • BF6's M-Coms run Ubuntu

  • I just started learning Godot so as I BF veteran this was quite the good surprise. Also BF is on Steam which I still can't believe.

    But I'm waiting to see it released. It could be like the previous "Portal". Just announcements without anything released.

  • Is this mail something I should be concerned about?

    Jump

  • Yeah I think it's just a false alarm.

    I would suggest looking into how sudoers works. I might just be that you asked caddy to do something that required root and forgot to sudo the command ?

    Still double check the timestamp and verify that it was when you tinkered. Use "history" to look for previous commands and maybe the timestamp ?

    The way I see it something (probably caddy) wanted to check a TLS certificate and had to concatenate all the certificate authorities to check if an adequate CA was there. And it failed to access what looks like a local CA that is autosigned ? Still worth checking your CA has adequate / similar permission as the others.

  • It's just as insane for you to expect us to read between the line of a 4 line comment that only present AI as harmful.

    If you want to say that AI is both good and bad, that's fine but then say that. It doesn't have to be a book about it. You could have juste said AI can be harmful or good and that's fine. Don't act as if i'm asking for something unreasonable. You said one negative thing in a 4 line comment and feel personally attacked that we are unable to guess what positive thing you see in AI.

  • First you should chill a bit.

    I know you think this will harm you and everyone you know,

    So this thing will harm you. But you are not describing AI as only negative ?

    You just say AI will harm you and suppose people assume you have positive thing to say about AI

    Where is the nuance toward AI in your comment please show it to me.

  • So everything related to AI is negative ?

    If so do you understand why we can't have any conversation on the subject ?

  • May I ask for a link ? Never saw that in the communities I consult. Never. Or at least not above 5 downvotes.

  • An AI could be demonstrably 30 times more accurate than a human in diagnosing a cancer on a scan Lemmy would still shit on it because it's an AI :D.

    On Reddit I knew that the subject of gun control was not allowed to be talked about. Now I embraced Lemmy and I can't talk no matter what about AI. It's just a taboo subject. Apparently some people want to reject the tech entirely and think it will somehow just magically stay out of their lives. A very naive dream.

    So yeah Lemmy. Refuse the conversation, look away, I'm sure it will be fine.

  • Regarding the fact that proton stops hosting in Switzerland : I thought it was because of new laws in Switzerland and that they hzf not much of a choice ?

  • Do you think it happen randomly that payment processors are unavoidable to get crypto money ? Because it's clearly on purpose and a way to control a market they didn't have any leverage on.

    Still the take above of "I would rather support payment processors than Cryptos" still sound super dumb to me. People are so extreme on their assessment of technologies here. There is no nuance. AI is all bad, crypto is all bad that's pretty much the tone here.

  • What does it have to do with monkeys ?

    NFT is a very small subset of "Cryptos".

    On a more serious note, you really do prefer VISA MasterCard to dictate what is to be censored or not rather than using crypto currencies ?

    I couldn't believe the amount of bullshit you have to cram in to up a toothbrush to that level of price.

  • With the constant stream of news I would suppose it's handy to have some virtual anchor available 24/24 and that you can start in a matter of minutes.

    It's cynical of course but I kind of get the idea.

  • PNG has been updated for the first time in 22 years — new spec supports HDR and animation

    Jump

  • I understand that. It's the downvoting of the clearly marked as AI LLM response. Is it detrimental to the conversation here to have that? Is it better to share nothing rather than this LLM output?

    Was this thread better without it?

    Is complete ignorance of the PNG compatibility preferable to reading this AI output and pondering how true is it?

    [list 200 links]

    Now I think this conversation is getting just rude for no reason. I think the AI output was definitely not the "I'm lucky" result of a Google search and the fact that you choose that metaphor is in bad faith.

  • PNG has been updated for the first time in 22 years — new spec supports HDR and animation

    Jump

  • If you prefer to know nothing about PNG compatibility rather than something that might be true about PNG. That's fine but definitely not my approach.

    Also, as I said to another commenter. Critical thinking is not some tool you decide to use on some comments and not others. An AI answer on some topics is actually more likely to be correct than an answer by a human being. And it's not some stuff I was told by an AI guru it's what researchers are evaluating in many universities. Ask an human to complete various tasks and then ask the AI model and compare scientifically the data. And it turns out there is task where the AI outperforms the human pretty much all the time.

    YET on this particular task the assumption is that it's bullshit and it's just downvoted. Now I would have posted the same data myself and for some reason I would not see a single downvote. The same data represented differently completely change the likelihood of it being accurate. Even though at the end of the day you shouldn't trust blindly neither a comment from an human or an AI output.

    Honestly, I'm saddened to see people already rejecting completely the technology instead of trying to understand what it's good at and what it's bad at and most importantly experiencing it themselves.

    I wanted to know what was generative AI worth so I read about it and tried it locally with open source software. Now I know how to spot images that are AI generated, I know what's difficult for this tech and what is not. I think that's a much healthier attitude than blindly rejecting any and all AI outputs.
