just a bunch of highly opinionated shit by random person which you will spend more time learning/adopting to than instead of configuring your own system. but I guess 100-500 random people will still star that shit and say how "awesome" it is
Apple Intelligence is only on iPhone 15 Pro+
finally I've made a good choice
only for US so far tho
also seems like the problem with the battery is magically solved, I have ~80% by the end of the day now. or maybe just use it much less lol
but I have more problems with the new airpods (pro gen2 usb-c) even brought them to the apple shop, they reset it, seems like it helped, but dunno. it's the first time I have massive issues with the apple device...
also I won't have new watchOS 11 on my Apple Watch SE 2020 maybe time to buy a new watch?
also won't have Apple Intelligence on my iPad Air Gen 4 (because not M1) but I don't use it anyway so whatever...
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40630546this ones interesting tho perhaps be amazing to just have a set of configuration files and reboot after security updoots and everything would work, instead of mucking about with apt and sudo nanoing files on /etc/
i assume thats what it means, wish i knew how to do it
did they say there were three levels of ai: on-device, contact apple headquarters and contact openai
apple intelligence was the middle one i think? i wonder why they need specific hardware for contacting the cloud but maybe they preprocess stuff before sending it out or something
wanna try linux stuff on spare computer but would have to switch plugs each time, kvm switch not big enough
>apple intelligence was the middle one i think?
I think it’s all 3, but they want to support on-device AI, so the entire thing would only be enabled on a device with fast NE
bankerino informed me ios15 wont be supported next year
the small phone dream is officially, unironically dead
its over
tested gnome on vm while waiting for the bigger switch and holy shit cjk just works? all without messing about with terminal or weird settings. can't believe i fell for the kde meme all this time
cjk: macos = chromebook = linux > windows
rdp on gnome also came out just a few months ago... and it works
remote desktop: windows = linux >>>> macos = chromebook
once i go from vm to metal there is still the mouse acceleration stage maybe i'll finally pass it and get away from the shackles of windoos once and for all
https://cdsassets.apple.com/live/6GJYWVAV/user/ma656_macbook_13inch_aluminum_late2008.pdfOh i've always used thumbs for command until i started thinking this cant be good for my hands
how the heck do i learn to use my middle finger or somhthing maybe impossible so i guess caps lock for command
so that is how it happened
>thumbs for command until i started thinking this cant be good for my hands
>how the heck do i learn to use my middle finger or somhthing
been using swapcaps for years and can’t live without it
dunno why would people use standard control location, so inconvenient
fell for the 4o scam
i was just doing one of the example questions about fruit and picking ripe fruits and it decided to generate the most disgusting fruit with like a hole in the middle with weird gunk like spiderwebs inside
worst thing ive ever seen and i've used the internet.

idk about input yet but usb-c connected/powered monitor-glasses for walking while computing
maybe easier initial setup than mpv and supposedly still works normally gotta try it
https://www.the-sun.com/tech/11893606/apple-vision-pro-tim-cook-interview/computing while lying flat
>lying flat
nah, it's shit
only use vanilla mpv, preferably latest git commit
mpv is shit without wm4 anyway tho...
can just use VLC as well at this point
>When you copy large file to eg. USB drive, you get progress bar, as it should be. The problem is that this progress bar does not show real progress of copying files. It shows progress of copying file to some buffer, and when bar reaches 100% it doesn't mean files were completely copied to USB drive. I usually watch if buffer flushed in a terminal but you should not need to do such things in gnome.
linuxfriends...
its over
beacuase they mess it up or just depending on an older version of mpv than latest git commit
damn, gaming monitors might be lit

fanciest hecking feature ive ever seen but what to use it for
>but what to use it for
to avoid using inferior device when you need to check some mobile-only app (plenty of them)
I don't understand how people could use mobile phone with small screens and shitty screen keyboards to e.g. order thing in shopping apps. maybe they just don't care at buying good thing at all, just want to buy anything...
>fanciest hecking feature ive ever seen

gotta return 4-way kvm as these just doesnt seem to work properly 2 port kvms work fine but i guess 4 way is difficult to make, at least cheaply.
i need to share monitor between work laptop, normal compoter, tinker computer, and an old pc with descrete graphics for gaming once a month. currently using the monitor's fun combination of ports (2xhdmi, dp, usb-c) and a separate 4-way usb switch but its a cable hell
https://old.reddit.com/r/UsbCHardware/comments/10xj74r/why_dont_usbc_extension_cables_work/looks like theres no hope of a usb-c switch for getting rid of the extra usb cables
>work laptop, normal compoter, tinker computer, and an old pc with descrete graphics for gaming
quick review of mac keyboard shortcut editing

I cringed so hard because of this new ladybird hype yesterday
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p572p-irRaUlooks extremely naive yet people go with the hype train
at least that Korean guy who started working on typescript replacement in rust wrote something usable before (swc), but I bet this guy didn't create anything worthwhile, just good at marketing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbEhWFQSsMQThais also understand the cute/sekshie theory of woman attractiveness

yeah, seems to be normal for Thais to give lots of tips to singers on stage
it keeps getting worse
cli started mpv creates a webm with webm.lua fine but mpv.app can't do i need some mystery permission for it?
logs are not very helpful
[ 14.812][v][webm] Command stdout: [ 14.812][v][webm] [ 14.812][v][webm] Command failed! Reason: init Killed by us? no
use ninnin
but I think the problem is because mpv.app doesn't have ffmpeg in the PATH (because PATH for .app doesn't inherit from the shell's PATH)
I had same issue with mpv.app being unable to call yt-dlp installed by homebrew
thank you

safari is not bad huh now that profiles are out
only webms suck but not that many people post them anyway
>safari is not bad huh
I've tried to using it for a few months when I got macbook (because comfy sync with iphone/ipad) and it was pretty horrible UX tbh
chrome is just better overall...
doesn't seem too different, unless maybe if theres some extensions you need. also no red for new posts but at least tab title gets updated.
next tab position/selection after new tab/close tab def completely different but a few weeks into it i somehow got used to it
some day i'll learn how to make my personal extensions for safari and i can retire the rest of my chrome usage
70" TV viewing experience is fucking insane
especially if you sit 2m away and watch some close-up concert video, the singer is real-size
can't believe it's just 70", looks insanely huge and much bigger than my own 65"
but the device information says it's 70UQ8000PSC
the viewing experience should be even better than at the real concert if you're far away from the stage tbh
I would like to go to the real concert only if I'm <5m away from the singer but not sure how to achieve that, that ticket thing is retarded
you got the setup?
got fancy hotel room
searching for ลำไยเชพบ๊ะ?
why you know
that rrrondulonloh song still playing in my head i thought maybe you went to see it in a concert
>you went to see it in a concert

safari kinda crazy, you can copy text from a paused youtube video
you mean it does OCR for a <video> frames? interesting

she's in Europe now
solved by only using usb-c computers
hopefully the ports survive a couple of swaps per day, my ole macbooks usb-c port got destroyed even though i barely took it out of the dock
audience is all thai even in sweden wonder if she ever puts her name in english somewhere would be easier to learn
updooted monitor firmware to see if i can fix the usb-c wakeup problem.
its possibly fixed maybe, but now theres a wakeup loop problem (like a boot loop but for waking up) a few times a week, and only remedy is taking out the power cable
why can't there be free lunches
not sure if should buy ps5 with good discount on 9.9 now or wait for pro
bought
safari add to dock is perfect for youtube music
the dumb thing doesn't remember state after you close it but safari only updates during os update so almost never compared to chrome ("plese restart chrome i beg there was update" )
missed out on ai upscaling all the hotness these days
yeah, I know, 3 things made me pull the trigger:
- I can't wait 2 more months
facepalming myself- 9.9 discount was pretty good and price of the pro is too high (I bought slim for $380, but pro would be at least $800 here, so 2x+ the price)
- I have only 1080p TV now
maybe I will stop playing it in 1-2 months as I did before, so I saved myself a bit of money that way too
this is mostly cope of coursebut 4k60p on 65"+ OLED of course would have been much better, maybe one day
>but 4k60p on 65"+ OLED
probably should buy top PC for that though, because PS5 Pro is still not that good, compared to 4080/4090
i.e. PS5 < PS5 Pro < PC+4090
but PS5 Pro could be Pareto optimal tho
nooo why are all the good component libraries react only i dont want to style things from the beginning
just use ai.gen
if that genuinely works consistently i would be very impressed and willing to do some frontend stuff for once
>genuinely works consistently
of course
not
in England now, but I haven’t yet visited the concert

>I don’t have to update rules all that often (usually a few rules/week)
that guy is delusional. or just don't have anything to do in his life except micromanaging computer software
>Since Homebrew is a well-established package manager, macOS recognizes it as a safe source
tried to download standalone yt-dlp but it gets warninged by macos meanwhile brew cli programs run just fine
catgpt made this up, instead of this brew uses some magic to unquarantine installed binaries
i wanna get bose qc ultra or sony xm5 how comfortable are noice canceling headphones tho, i dont really care about that feature but all the fancy stuff has it nowadays
too much pressure oughta instead maybe get those around ear holders for airpod
finally went to the concert but couldn’t get 100% possible experience:
- was pretty close to the scene, but not the closest place
- didn’t shake hand
- didn’t make selfie
- outfit wasn’t very sekshiewhy can’t I ever get a perfect experience
at least made pretty good videos with 3x optical zoom, better than compressed youtube videos, I have my personal fancams now
but only few are 4k60, because wasn’t sure if I have enough space on iCloud for that
again, not perfect
checked 1080p vs 4k, can see pretty big difference even on a phone screen (when zooming). and, even worse, the best moment I recorded is 1080p
maybe can record 4k30 as default now
https://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/zwyc9i/apple_silently_downgraded_the_default_resolution/
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253155872?sortBy=rank
unbelievable user experience from apple makes me
on the other hand, I guess it's not possible to pan/zoom with trackpad in mpv
yeah 4k looks much nicer on a macbook screen when zoomed in, 1080p was a mistake...
not sure about 30fps vs 60fps tho
but it's interesting question what's better: 3x optical zoom on 15 pro or 5x on pro max
sometimes you would want 3x, not 5x, because of the distance
on 16 pro and pro max it's always 5x tho
>For a wedding, the vast majority of viewing will be on 60-Hz refresh screens and (at least in North America) you'll have 60-Hz lighting. For these reasons along, you should shoot 30 (or 29.97) fps.
read a bunch of reddit discussions, it seems 4K is a must for a non-garbage video, because you can zoom
but 60fps has some issues like weird light flickering and (presumably) worse dynamic range
so 4k30 seems optimal choice unless you want to slowmo
but with fancams you probably would like to, so not sure
https://www.reddit.com/r/VideoEditing/comments/dfzs7t/how_to_fix_flickering_lights_at_60fps/
>If you're in a 50Hz area (like Chile) and you're shooting 60p then you're taking 60 pictures per second while the lights are strobing 50 times a second. So naturally you'll be sometimes catching it in between strobes, making the light appear to flicker.
the fuck, 50hz in grid system fucks up the 60fps video
why is 30fps fine then tho

probably should start using deno instead of the
pnpm init && pnpm add @swc-node/register @types/node && cp ~/tsconfig.json ~/.prettierrc.yaml .
boilerplate every time I need to work on custom TS scripton the other hand, not sure if deno can work with pnpm but deno + npm would be probably very slow
england one? was there a lot of non-thai there, can't imagine its easy to discover her
never thought about hz and lighting, i guess its some meme about how fast the current alternates
with leds getting more popular maybe it will go away since they are dc only
