Please, if you don’t read it the view counter doesn’t increment and I don’t get my weed money from Xi

The real answer is it is, among other things, an economic tool

The alternative was having the big US techs invade china economically, along with the mass propaganda from capitalist entities (chief among them the US, always pursuing efforts to destabilize China) that would have followed

You don’t speak to actual Chinese citizens often, do you ? basically all young people there have VPNs, and nobody cares. Like, at all

We’re just terminally online and upvote each other

Though I’ll admit those stats here are a bit suspicious

let’s talk about the current genocide the CCP is carrying out

The one the UN can find no evidence of ?

Here, educate yourself

Llama is a widely available LLM (like chatGPT) that you can run on off-the-shelf computers at home

This is a bit pretending to be a bot that has malfunctioned, and it’s a good one

Reality is calling

Probably emacs, or wine along with dxvk

Oh god, just reading that name, the flashbacks

This is disturbingly accurate

Just wait for 2024, El Niño will fuck our shit up

Ah, makes sense, thanks; I use Jellyfin exclusively for video as well

For the Filelist thing I prefer CLI tools generally (and all the export formats I’ve seen in the features seem perfectly doable through them); but your answer about XNViewMP definitely has merits, thanks ! I’ll take a look at it

I’ve seen entire corporate networks run through a samba machine, though admittedly not often; it can be done

It’s also probably a bad idea (the only upside would be security mind you)

I’ve been incredibly happy with Jellyfin on my NAS. What does Plex offer that it doesn’t, out of curiosity ?

ImageMagick is shit

I love ImageMagick despite its quirks; but then again I do not use it for professional use (well I do as a dev but I’m not a photograph or anything). What does XNViewMP does that ImageMagick doesn’t ?

Because at first glance it seems much worse - it has a graphical UI for one thing which seems inappropriate for the usecases I see ImageMagick being used for.

Also that Filelist Creator thing has existed on unix since the 70s; it’s called “find”, “ls”, and “awk”.

I really recommend it, at least the first one, it’s a classic and it’s awesome; the later two are admittedly lower quality I think, unless you’re really into cyberpunk.

The name is cool but the Tessier-Ashpool were bourgeois pigs

EMPRESS the batshit insane DRM cracker ?
