Don’t feed the trolls.

Not even useful IMO, just idiots.

I’d be interested in how this documenting could be done. If you’re a manufacturer, you’d probably want to keep everything secret - except what’s needed for a patent for example - otherwise the competition might get an idea of the proprietary things you make in house.

I mean I’m all for it, I just don’t see it happening unless under very strict regulations.

I’m not talking about the US specifically either. It’s a global problem.

Came here to say that. If AI has the leeway to affect things in a negative way, then we’re not focusing on the right things to begin with. If kids are graded sometimes for the amount of (not necessarily coherent and sound) text they’re able to spit out, this is what you get.

Cool, thanks a bunch. Looks like I’ll be installing this right away.

Edit: bummer, there’s no Kodi integration currently and it doesn’t seem to have REST endpoints. So even if it works, at least for some time it would be Kodi -> Trakt and Trakt -> Yamtrack.

Things like this incentivise me to sit down and write an alternative. I just wish I had the time and energy to do so.

Artificial onetelligence

… with the difference being that it’s not scripted.

I’m not saying “don’t make progress”, I’m saying “try to make progress across the board”.

IMO another example of pushing numbers ahead of what’s actually needed, and benefitting manufacturers way more than the end user. Get this for bragging rights? Sure, you do you. Some server/enterprise niche use case? Maybe. But I’m sure that for 90% of people, including even those with a bit more demanding storage requirements, a PCIe 4 NVMe drive is still plenty in terms of throughput. At the same time SSD prices have been hovering around the same point for the past 3-4-5 years, and there hasn’t been significant development in capacity - 8 TB models are still rare and disproportionately expensive, almost exotic. I personally would be much more excited to see a cool, efficient and reasonably priced 8/16 TB PCIe 4 drive than a pointlessly fast 1/2/4 TB PCIe 5.

Meep meep!

I agree about the “everything in one place”; besides that, in terms of shopping, there’s not much to it. In terms of services there used to be some pretty neat stuff, e.g. unlimited cloud storage for photos (including RAW files) for something like 50 EUR/year, but of course they axed that.

Plenty of alternatives for everything, just maybe a little less convenient.

In terms of media, I don’t stream from paid services; whatever I pay for is either at local shows where I buy CDs from artists directly, or through label stores, or through outlets like Bandcamp (btw it’s Bandcamp Friday right now until the end of the weekend, go support what you like).

Can’t remember the last time I bought something from there to begin with.

I remember that term. It was short-lived.

You have to also consider that when 5" was big, bezels were big too. With today’s thin bezels the same physical size that used to hold 5" could probably hold 5.5".

Because apparently people want big phones.

For the last 10-15 years it’s been a boiling frog situation really - .1 or .2" increase every generation until 7" somehow becomes the norm (for a phone, not a tablet, mind you).

I wish there were more small hi-end phones too.

Politics aside, I’d be curious to see how far something like this can go. Can’t not think of Opera Software - even they were not successful while they were using their own proprietary tech.

Can someone explain how something as generic as a keyboard can be a subject to patents?

TIL! Thanks!
