Your distribution has configured your GDM or Getty to have some dependency on something that ultimately waits on dhcpcd/network-online.target. It’s not really the fault of systemd; it just enables new possibilities that were previously

I was talking to get LLMs to write the code or come up with an approach. I agree that the resulting solution does not need any kind of LLMs or even ML.

Yeah my point was to download videos in bulk and scan them to then mark these segments in Sponsorblock. LLMs failed to produce any kind of performant solution.

It's not limited to Shorts, even normal longform videos have had this crap for years now. I hate it too - fortunately SponsorBlock can take care of this, they have optional categories you can enable beyond just sponsors, including the

It only matters if any of those can promise reliability and either put their own money where their mouth is or convince (and actually get them to pay up) a bigger player to insure them. Ultimately hardware, software, QA, etc is all about de

Why would you do that vs just publishing on your own domain?

The decline has started before LLMs became a thing.

Wait until you see an actual failure; you will get individual alerts for every dependent system as if the dependent system failed directly. A single communication glitch with the ABS for example will trigger 5+ alerts for ESP, lane keepin

It's because Signal has some unhealthy obsession with "security" and does not want to recipient of the communication to ever be able to export messages in plain text.

Would a file converter not solve this issue? Or do the new formats embed extra kinds of data (extra channels, etc) that are just impossible to represent in the old formats?

I'm not a photographer so pardon my ignorance: is there any reason these old tools can't be used nowadays? Like film photography tools haven't fundamentally changed since the heyday of film, why can't digital tools be tr

Again I am not talking about press. I am talking about communication tools. Yes the free market has decided that these tools are the "best" option as long as the negative externalities (such as exposure to malicious actors - forei
