Works on mine.

I knew i recognized that output.

Mine is actually also made with the help of Chatgpt but manually refined and tested.

Another example, which i can personally verify has been working fine for months. It works a bit different to the above, it downloads the latests 2* vids that are not already downloaded and runs once every hour with cron. I also attempted to filter out live vids and shorts.

Channels i am “subscribed” too are stored in a single text file, it also uses the avc1 codec because i found p9 and p10 had issues with the jellyfin client on my tv.

looks like this, i added categories but i don’t actually use them in the script besides putting them in a variable, lol. Vid-limit is how many of the latests vids it should look at to download. The original reason i implemented that is so i could selectively download a bulk of latests vids if i wanted to.

Thing that everyone joked about (to mentally handle the horror) that was definitely going to really happen, happens.

Better late then never to stop it from happening I guess.

“Stop destroying the planet, stop ignoring us”

Political leaders: I have no choice other then taking a strong stance against these criminals and their absurd demands.

Understandable, have a good day.

Firefox is sustained (biggest funder) by google who needs artificial competitions to not be labeled a monopoly.

Its still the best browser i can think off that isn’t chromium but i would recommend staying skeptical.

Don’t forget time dilution.

They who master the skill of controlled time dilation will quickly ascend to rule the universe… or so i was told in a dream.

Ops focus on a singular “nicely packaged “ egg made me unable to consider anything else then bird eggs.

I was so confused by your comment, i had to look it up.

To be fair the scientific ideal is to one day recover it to be placed in a museum.

I might and the answer is for science and curiosity.

There is a lot you can learn from simulations, this is on premise incredibly valuable for researchers and industry. I bet Facebook and twitter have been doing this internally for years.

What i don’t understand is why its marketed as private social media rather then a a cool simulation research tool

Clearly lacking artistic vision.

On the left id do a sick explosion in the background.

The right gets a spaceship interior with neon lights. So the highlights on Kylo and the troopers armors need to reflect that.

With “i do” i mean “if i had skill” of course.

“conspiratorial politicians”

Can we just stand still for a second with how normalized Absurdity is?

Did she really ask what river and what sea?

Does she assume people are unable to perceive a map?

Just in case: Its Jordan River and the Mediterranean sea.

“A school ruler”

Only works if your school had 30cm rulers as a standard but that appears to be true for many people i know.

Mine started off more coherent then Trump

Religion is such a good thing and it’s so hard for people who don’t have the right or ability for the things that are necessary for their lives and the people that do not need to have that right and the things they they want want want want want want want want want want want want want

Oh in that way, enjoy the crustiness in that case, cheers.

I think you meant to reply this to ChaoticNeutralCzech ;)

You’re welcome though.

I am exhausted 24/7 but i am still showing up for work because i can’t afford not too. Climate science is pretty bleak, were on the brink of ending the existence of our and other species (though indeed the planet will likely survive this)

We do not need to eat live-animal meat anymore, alternatives (like labgrown meat mentioned in the article) exists and are doable. The only reason we can’t have it is because of strict laws supported by bigmeat lobbyists. Italy has banned alternatives because they are convinced it cant TASTE as good as real FLESH. That is a choice.

Humanity is developed enough to make such choices and we are living one of them right now, and it ain’t a morally defendable one.

I love to eat meat btw, i don’t think i could handle being vegetarian.

There not mammals but would have liked to see chickens on this.
