The Samsung shop hands out 1.4mb JSON responses for order tracking, with what I estimate 99% redundant information that is repeated many times in different parts of the structure.

I thought the third live action one was decent. It definitely had a catchy song: https://youtu.be/YB6Xq-jjzeE

I mean, the blame clearly lies on whoever created the fucking situation in the first place. I hate the trolley problem.

Oh, then I need to give it another try.

Yeah. I have a mini PC with an AMD GPU. Even if I were to buy a big GPU I couldn't use it. That frustrates me, because I'd love to play around with some models locally. I refuse to use anything hosted by other people.

Russian officials criticised for giving meat grinders to mothers of soldiers killed in Ukraine in c/nottheonion@lemmy.world
[–] state_electrician@discuss.tchncs.de 9 points 2 weeks ago

It feels like this is just an attempt to manipulate search results. It's better when a dumb stunt like this shows up for "Russia meat grinder" rather than reports about the war in Ukraine.

The police is always there to protect the status quo. And if the status quo means people and the world are being bled dry by a few psychopaths, then the police are a tool of these oppressors.

Notifications for Wireguard peer (dis)connects? (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

I am building a Wireguard tool for myself and I would like to receive events when a peer connects or disconnects. Does someone know if this is possible through some kernel API or EBPF?

[SOLVED] Looking for a movie title (discuss.tchncs.de)

I am looking for a movie, late 90s to late aughts. What I remember is a press junket for a fictional movie in some hotel and the chaos around it. One specific thing I remember is the director in the movie buying the Unabomber's shack to complete the movie.

Looking for MiTV box replacement (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

I have a MiTV box with Android that runs apps for Jellyfin, Prime Video and Disney Plus. I would like to replace it with a mini PC, like some N100 box, to have more control over what runs on it. I tried a Pi with Kodi once, but I hate the UI so much. It's just not my thing.

What other options do I have with self-hosted alternatives? I want a central UI like AndroidTV offers, I need Jellyfin, Disney Plus, Prime Video and some local TV station's streaming offerings and some remote control.

I don't think that's possible, as you can only run Disney and Prime in a browser or their apps. And using a browser on the TV is not nice UX. But maybe some of the great people here have cracked that nut and can help me.

Good free TTS (text-to-speech) options? (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

Are there any free/open-source TTS options out there that are on the same level as Google Cloud's? I tried a lot of free ones, but they are absolutely awful and still sound like my Amiga did 30 years ago. With LLMs being available as open source, I am hoping there's also a good TTS offering I just haven't found yet.

Barrier/Input Leap/other KVM server for Wayland? (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

I really want to use Wayland, but the lack of a Wayland-based KVM sharing tool is an absolute deal breaker for me. I tried so many of them, but none worked. Waynergy looks alright, but it's only a client. rkvm didn't work at all and I don't remember the names of the other tools I tried. I know that Input Leap/Barrier has met their donation goal for Wayland support, but I am not holding my breath that it'll work with wlr.

Has anyone gotten KVM sharing to work with a Wayland host and other Linux clients?

Source for Comics? (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hi,

I am always looking for sources for comics, particularly franco-belgian in English or German. The only sources I can find are these godawful download sites where you need to pay or your download takes a day.

Anyone have better sources?

Edit: Thanks a lot everyone!

Wanted: audio library streaming plus Spotify (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

I am looking for something I can run on a Pi that gives me access to my private audio library plus Spotify, because I hate switching apps. I want to access it from a desktop and Android. Does someone have something like this set up?
