Makes sense. Read the basics about the Autonomic Nervous System, the sympathetic and para-sympathetic branches. You don't want to stay in sympathetic activation. Browsing on a phone may seem relaxing, but it keeps your sympathetic nerv

I'm not going to explore this topic more than I need to know. What little I have seen of it, to me it seems like it is even worse in terms of affect on your nervous system, than old fashioned porn. It is way, way worse because with AI

Now that reminds me also of the glue that we used in secondary school and also art school. Smelling it would definitely give a little high/dizzy feeling, whereas smelling the air at the gastation for me is more of a dopamine kick.

Always loved the smell of ink in books and graphic novels. Often times the first thing I do when I have a new book is just open it halfway and burry my nose in between the pages. Maybe it is a fetish? Hmmm. Never thought of that. I also alw

If anyone's still reading this or anyone cares here is what I found out: - the issue I was experiencing is with a lower quality encoding vp9 stream - from a video that was recently uploaded (explained below) - though I didn't trus

I think the positive take here is "an unusually swift resolution of a high-profile puzzle". So it sounds like the leak was in fact a positive and that overall rewarding people with nobel prizes is detrimental to science. edit: it&

Even putting aside the architectural considerations, one way that standard CSS has failed, is that the naming of properties is inconsistent and increasingly difficult to remember and work with. I find that using tailwind's flex "a

I am glad to pay 7 € for YouTube Premium Lite. For a while I didn´t consider the "full" Premium because I was always shown the 17 € version - which is for family. Now suddenly I'm being shown there is a 12 € option which is

Yes that is probably what it was! I'll remember that even two+ days after the initial upload, there may still be reencoding. I thought this was only few hours after the creator uploads. So the smaller filesize also is not necessarily a

Hey thanks I didn't know about this tool. Interestingly since I have the older download from ~3 weeks ago I just ran mediainfo on it, and the new download from today. Then I just switch tabs in terminal so I can easily see what changes

I'm "eyeballing" switching between Infuse and YouTube on an Apple TV 4k 2nd Gen (2021). The Sony TV is 1080p but I've been chosing 1440p now in YouTube as it definitely looks better overall (more details). The downloaded

I'm watching with AppleTV, comparing Infuse with YouTube. So I can only "eyeball" it. Wish AppleTV let me do screenshots it would be fun!

Interesting. Indeed there is the line in the nerd stats overlay: Volume / Normalized 100% / 100% (content loudness -0.2dB) You got me thinking now. I see there is some kinda ReplayGain postprocessor plugin for yt-dlp, how

On a sidenote am I imagining things or do videos actually look a tiny bit better in YouTube? This really has puzzled me. I downloaded a few favourites and watch them on VLC or Infuse on my AppleTV. In the YouTube app I can use the "ner

Is there anything like MacVim on linux these days? I mean gVIM is pretty usable with tabs but I'm wondering if anybody cared enough to make something a little fancier GUI wise? Just good looking slick window decorations, better integra

Wow that's kinda worrying for streamers on Twitch and Youtube etc. They sometimes enter passwords while buying a game on Steam or purchasing something on Amazon. Now they're going to have to think about muting as they are already

No technology is 100% foolproof ; especially in a completely foreign environment ; and they don´t "crash all the time". According to Grusch I think they have recovered "in the double digits" which is less than a hundred.

Hey is there any way to bookmark this on my iPad? I cant find a way to create a favorite, it seems Safari doesnt allow to edit the url, and it is bookmarking the redirected page.

Wow this will be so much fun to browse on my iPad. BOOKMARKED!!

Yeah it's pretty ridiculous, that's the reason why I don't sub to anybody on Twitch even though I am super grateful for some streamers I've watched for years : you still get ads on all the other channels... which is ridi

I agree with recent TWiT discussion on this : we've had it good for a while - the promise of free internet but all those services cost money to keep running. I don't have an issue with paying Youtube Premium Lite. Where I have an

This is very cool. Interestingly GPT appears to be incorrect when it suggests in the differences, that str_getcsv would not parse correctly quoted parts. It does look like the php function has support for the "enclosure" character

The Linux desktop is still a subpar experience compared to Windows 10+ or macOS - that said, it is definitely now a viable platform for "PC gamers" who want to move away from Windows for whatever reason - or eg. devs like me who u

I mean it is obvious from the get go. Even without the bot training part, what LLMs end up with is some kind of smoothie of the knowledge where all the crunchy bits are removed. Like taking the output of a JPEG compression and using it as i

I love Vim but I also am not convinced that having more "motions" makes you more efficient. Specifically, I think the "Javascript the Good Parts" approach applies to Vim as well : if 90% of the vim shortcuts I use only 5

Oh come on. You know what I mean. Companies like OpenAI are basically appropriating value created by others by feeding the so called "public" data into their LLMs. Therefore stealing content on a massive scale. You and I are not g

Could this be the ramifications of AI though? (edit: I mean, in light of StackOverflow also changing their policies recently) Not only are the LLMs like GPT effectively doing scraping like never before, without any legal oversight, AI is al

So long as Mr Zuck has money to throw away at his vision... I'm all for it. Because the Meta Quest is amazing for games and entertainment. So go mr Zuck. The more money he can keep burning on it the better for us :) I mean is there any

Right but it's open source apparenty, and there's already efforts to create GUI etc to make this easier for end users. Even if it doesn't run Cyberpunk at full speed, you'll have a huge catalog of indie games on Steam an

I love the accessibility of old.reddit.com it's the only way I browse the site, especially on my iPad. /sarcasm , but true.. can't imagine using the modern version.
