  • Nearly all of Spotify has been scraped and is available via torrents

  • Has anyone tried to self host this? Of course, hosting 300tb isn't practical, so any solution would need to download the metadata and songs on demand.

  • If your lifes goal was to make life better for as many people as possible how would you go about achieving it, assuming you could get start-up capital for your project?

  • Build open source software for public infrastructure

  • The Browser Company, maker of Arc and Dia, is being acquired

    Jump

  • Arc is fairly good, and I was willing to tolerate the few hiccups when it was constantly being improved. Of course, I switched to zen.

  • I have now found 1070 verified accounts from media organizations in the #Fediverse, but only on #Mastodon, #Flipboard, #Threads, #Bluesky, #Ghost and #Peertube.

    Jump

  • Also, if the organisation shares their fediverse profile on their official website, you can consider them verified

    Do any of you have a buttload of RAM sitting around?

  • Install VüDü itself. In the package, there will be a large square of herb-scented paper. This is the entire code for VüDü.

    IMO this is creating unrealistic expectations for the bundle size of linux distributions 🤣🤣

  • You are being very vogue, and it's making it hard to answer your question.

    If you are looking for a mental health professional, there are platforms you can use online, or even lookup professionals in other countries and contact them. Keep in mind, depending on the country the cost can vary greatly, a psychologist in Greece will cost you 40eur per session, but one in USA will cost at least 400usd per session.

    Depending on the country you live in, maybe there are public services you can use, though from your post it seems unlikely 🥲

    Also, books and video essays, are a great resource bettering ones self, you just need to find the right ones.

  • What We Know So Far About the Supposed 'Mother of All Data Breaches'

    Jump

  • Petkauskas’s article describes the discovered breach as “a plethora of supermassive datasets, housing billions upon billions of login credentials” that have been sourced from “social media and corporate platforms to VPNs and developer portals.” This data is sourced from “30 exposed datasets” that researchers say contains “tens of millions to over 3.5 billion records each.”

    To be clear, this is not a new data breach, or a breach at all, and the websites involved were not recently compromised to steal these credentials

    Regardless of whether this involves freshly leaked credentials or not, it might be a good time to freshen up your logins. Hackers’ jobs are getting easier by the day.

    What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ?

    Jump

  • IMO it's about saving men from the patriarchy. I was recently on an interview of Judith Butler and I really appreciated its take that the movement needs to show empathy and compassion.

  • Wondering if a volunteer could go to the physical location necessary to restore service. If it's in Athens Greece, I can make the trip.

    Edit: The server is located in Azores, the flight would cost 415eur, I cannot afford that, maybe someone in Portugal could help?

  • What now for my career?

    Jump

  • Hey, I was fired last July and I went through the same process, I actually asked a similar question on Lemmy and the feedback I received helped a tonne in landing more interviews.

    Here are the steps I believe helped me:

    1. Make sure your CV is machine parseable, search for open resume, upload your cv see what it detects. Ideally, generate your CV using that tool.
    2. Create your own portfolio website, here is mine for reference https://souperk.gr/ (I have a public repository, feel free to copy if CSS isn't your strong suite)
    3. Check that toggle on LinkedIn to signify you are actively searching atm (don't remember how, but you should see a ribbon on your avater if it's active)

    For me, landing more interviews was the hard part. Once I got a few interviews going, landing an offer was easy.

  • Firefox Finally Did It (Tab Groups)

    Jump

  • I have tried Zen and I like it, I will give ForeDragon a spin, thanks 🙏

  • Firefox Finally Did It (Tab Groups)

    Jump

  • I like Arc's user experience with vertical tabs. They are bigger, easier to organize and they are cleaner. Also, the sidebar toggle is hard to work with, ideally I would prefer the ability to toggle with a shortcut or reveal on hover.

    Aside Arc, Zen browser has a good vertical tab experience.

    Overall, I still main firefox for my personal browser, though it's UX is still lacking.

  • Maybe add some decent vertical tabs too?

  • So you are basically building a classifier that tries to assert if a user will like a video. While many are against any kind of "algorithm" within the fediverse, I believe that it's a necessity. But, I think allowing users to tag content and then building classifiers that allow you to filter based on that would be a more aligned with the fediverse.

    Anyway, cosine similarity has worked for a lot of things, so I think it's a solid foundation to get you started. Another thing you can try is using an embedding model, specifically a model that receives a segment of a video and yields a matrix with the property that similar input will result in outputs relatively close to each other (cosine or euclidean distance).

    Another thing to consider is building a platform that will permanently store data. If you can come up with a set of endpoints, I can implement something in python to get ypu started. I don't have experience with video processing so I cannot help you with that, but the crud aspect is no biggie.

  • Trusting Open Source: Can We Really Verify the Code Behind the Updates?

    Jump

  • Also, fuzzing is becoming quite popular. It's a technique that automatically detects vulnerabilities on a binary. Though, it is computationally intensive, so I would love to the emergence of a peer-to-peer project that allows anyone to contribute by testing open-source software.

  • I ended up setting up a postal server on my vps (see here). Their docs are pretty easy to follow through and it's probably the cheapest option (assuming you already use the and have a domain).

  • Towards a Fractal Anarchism: a Psychedelic Anarchist Manifesto (oc)

    Jump

  • I haven't finished reading this, but so far I find this a very interesting read. I would suggest adding a definition of fractals, while I have a good grasp of the concept, I think that it would help to define how you are thinking about it.

  • I hate to spoil your fun but IRs are made to be written by programs and read by programs.
