UI doesn’t come up until database migrations fully complete. Can take half an hour or more depending on how much content is indexed in your instance.

You absolutely can refuse to hire someone (in the US) for something they have no control of, assuming it’s not one of the few protected classes. I could refuse to hire you over height, inability to grow facial hair, etc with zero repercussions.

Backing a Kickstarter for a game is the same as preordering. Money leaves your pocket and enters the studio’s before the game is out.

Hey this name is familiar… these guys sent me all their app telemetry for a couple weeks because they hardcoded AWS LB IPs into their software, and I got lucky enough to get one of those recycled IPs.

Wouldn’t be surprised if their apps are still screwed up and sending large amounts of junk traffic at me, but at least now it’s going into a void.

If they had released mod tools on day 1 like they originally said, most of the game-breaking issues would have been addressed by modders by now.

If the game doesn’t meet their own standards, why exactly did they bother releasing it instead of delaying PC like the consoles were?

We have shoddy repair places here in the US too, but that’s no reason to make people to hunt for some region-specific community for their hardware questions.

AMD has ROCm which tries to get close. I’ve been able to get some CUDA applications running on a 6700xt, although they are noticeably slower than running on a comparable NVidia card. Maybe we’ll see more projects adding native ROCm support now that AMD is trying to cater to the enterprise market.

Maybe don’t allow autonomous cars on public streets then? The tech is nowhere near ready for prime time.

Looks like I’m about to switch fully to YT-DL/Plex for the subscriptions I care about. Should be good until they start embedding ads into the video files anyway.

Uhh… if your script is subbing to 24k remote communities, those will continue to grow from then on, unless you start purging communities at some point. After one user subscribes to a community, all new content gets indexed and stored on your instance. Pict-rs can cache images short term (and eventually clear them out), but Postgres will start growing very quickly and never slow down until it fills up disks.

I’ve had access to 4 for several weeks and it’s not really much better. Maybe I’m just asking too much of it though.

Strongly disagree about gpt being excellent for code, it’s extremely confident about the wrong answer most of the time. I’ve found it to be mildly useful as a Stack Overflow alternative (for asking general questions and having it point me in some direction) but it’s code outputs are garbage.

These instructions won’t work in anyone’s unraid box, even if they compile compose from source. Not sure why people think posting random chatGPT’d instructions is remotely useful.

Article suggests you simply get blocked from watching additional videos. But there’s no info on how that works- is it account based? IP based? Can I wipe my YouTube cookies to bypass a block?

Lol. Guess it’s time to add the rest of my subbed channels to YT-DL and ditch their shitty ad-filled site entirely.

I use Deemix/Deemon to track hundreds of artists and automatically grab new releases in FLAC from Deezer. It’s slightly manual compared to my *arr stack with its Discord bot, but just a quick copy/paste from Discord/etc into a command.

Personally I have a Deezer Hi-Fi sub to get the flac’s, not sure if their API is still wide open for MP3s or not. It used to be open for anything without a paid account.

I use Internetbs.net, sometimes Name.com if they have a particular TLD way cheaper.

I’m just letting mine do whatever it wants, got plenty of local storage. If/when I have storage issues I’ll add an s3 bucket, pretty easy to modify the entrypoint for pictrs to pass s3 connection info in the docker-compose deployment.

The LemmyImporter repo expects you to already have all your post data in a json file- it has a link in the readme to a Lemmygrad.ml comment with a Python script. Seems like it would do exactly what I want, if Pushshift was working. I may be able to fiddle with it enough over the weekend to hit Reddit directly, though.
