  • This sound awesome and i'd love to try but, your GitHub link delivers a 404.

    Also you hosted the original project on Codeberg but this on GitHub. Is it because of GitHubs ability to build binaries for a wide range of systems or because of Codebergs latest availability issues?

  • It's rude to show AI output to people | Alex Martsinovich

  • I know that feeling. I experienced it more than one time in areas of law I consider myself a little bit more knowledgeable than the average person. It's just a slap to the face to try to discuss a topic that you know a little bit about with an AI.

    The thing is: I am 100 % sure those people use LLM answer not out of disrespect but because they honestly believe that an LLM produces a better argument than they possibly could themselves.

  • Huh, I wouldn't say, the article mentioned Codeberg as the developer of Librewolf.

    It says:

    An even more private (but still free and equally effective) version of Firefox is LibreWolf, which was developed on Codeberg, a German nonprofit.

    To be honest this sentence doesn't make any sense at all: Librewolf wasn't developed, it is in active development. But it is true that it's being developed on Codeberg, which still doesn't convey a lot of information to the reader... I dont know if this article is very helpful at all...

  • How bad of an idea is it to use computing HDDs in a DIY NAS?

  • Both WD Blues and Seagate Barracudas are (often) CMR.

    I don't know about WD Blue but modern Barracudas (not Pro!) use SMR.

    But anyway, I wanted to add a thought regarding SMR vs. CMR: It's true that SMR has inferior write speed compared to CMR and that you can experience the effect even after writing a few gigabytes. I don't know if I would call it unbelievably slow though: When writing to SMR drives, I experienced write speeds around 30 MiB/sec which is slow but considering you may be writing to a NAS that is only connected to a 1 Gbps network it is only around 30 % of the write speed you may reach with proper drives. It's slow but it gets the job done when you're not in a hurry and have a tight budget.

    Also there are other possible bottlenecks you may encounter: I for example built my homeserver with used enterprise drives in mind and therefore opted for software RAID 6 for double the fail-safety. Turns out that writing to that array is so heavy on my servers CPU that it throttles writing to almost the same point as SMR drives which defeats the whole point of using enterprise drives. 🤣 This may not be a problem for OP because they wrote about buying 2 or 3 drives but everyone should always consider the whole system and not single components.

  • You can't solve this problem by restricting access for teenagers. They find a way to circumvent the restrictions as they always found a way to do the things they want, as harmful as they might be. Also toxic behaviour on social media is not a teenager issue but a men issue and should be treated as such.

  • My Steam library really is a strange place... I saw this deal and thought "Huh nice, I have to get it at this discount, maybe I'll have the time to play it someday".

    Turns out I already own it with all its DLC and even played for a few hours. I just don't remember...

  • What's the scariest fictional media you've seen?

    Jump

  • I have two movie, one of them not exactly scary but it shook me up severely.

    The French movie Irréversible (2002) is a thriller that tells the story of a guy taking revenge for the rape of his girlfriend. The story is told in reverse order and begins with the protagonist smashing the perpetrators head with a fire extinguisher and ends with him witnessing his girlfriend being raped.

    For some stupid reason I had a phase in school were I was into edgy, gruesome french movies so I watched this. It left me kinda traumatised because of the rape scene. For some reason, right after I watched the movie we had a German lesson were we were asked what we did on the weekend. Stupid me thought it would be a good idea to tell the class about this movie and while retelling the stor, I bursted into tears...

    The second movie is more fitting, I think: The Colour out of Space with Nick Cage is a lovecraftian horror movie that, for me, was so scary I could only watch it in bright daylight because I wasn't even remotely able to anticipate what would happen next. With most horror movies I kinda figure out the "rules" and the style of the movie so that I kinda have an idea what might happen next so I'm less likely to be scared. Not with TCooS: The movie is all over the place and drastically changes its style and tone during the story. It's great though and Nick Cage is completely crazy and off the rails in his role.

  • do most people really like the taste and smell of eggs?

  • Im not sure if it's because I'm from Europe and it being not so popular here or because I'm a cretin but I don't get poached eggs. Why would you take extra steps to prevent the egg from dissolving in the water when you can simply cook it inside it's shell?

  • Ummm... Yes, Proton was already mentioned in this thread so I won't repeat it. But I'm curious which problems you have with games on Linux or did you just repeat what was true 5 (?) years ago.

    Don't get me wrong: I tried gaming on linux when proton wasn't even remotely in the pipeline and it was horrible impossible. When I first heard about proton I tried again and ran into issues with the first game I tried (Europa Universalis 4, the new Paradox launcher was broken at the time) so I jumped ship again. Then I tried again in early 2025 and haven't looked back since then. There hasn't been a single game I tried that didn't work (although some games needed some tinkering but that's where protondb comes to rescue). There is one game I'd like to play (The Crew 2) that doesn't work because of it's anti cheat. But apart from that: Great experience!

    You see, I get where you might be coming from but maybe don't way until 2032 and give it a try again?
