yeah, that's definitely a part. And it kind of feels good to try to help build something... though I'm far from the first bunch of people who started this

Exactly! It's the Unix timestamp for 2023-11-05 00:40:45.238 UTC

and I am watching you!

There is a LinusTechTips Video where they build a PC together (the guy from the original verge video) and he explained what happened. Have nothing but respect for that dude for doing that now...

100% agree... and not having to think about karma, which I didn't really, but then still kind of did I think, feels really awesome

Within the constraints of the job it might be impossible to implement any changes, but do you have any ideas how to keep students engaged for long term projects when they have these 2min-tik-tok attention spans? I'm asking as someone who sees this behaviour in younger colleagues that I try to educate as a senior... :D

Ich habe meine comments "manuell" durch Zitate geändert... hab mir ein Keyboard Makro gemacht, so dass ich nur noch auf edit klicken musste.. hat trotzdem etwas gebraucht aber war es mir Wert. Meinen Account behalte ich erstmal bis meine GDPR Anfrage kommt und weil ich r/ukraine weiter verfolgen möchte. Habe aber alle subscriptions beendet... mit allen accounts ;)

Und das wenige was ich jetzt noch mache nur noch über old.reddit.... nachdem es BaconReader nicht mehr gibt also nur noch über Desktop... meine Hoffnung ist etwas das diejenigen die den eigentlichen content generiert haben umziehen und der rest in seiner immergleichen langweiligen soße auf reddit dahinvegetiert

Someone else already pointed towards odysee.com. However, I think it speaks volumes that the best video explaining the concept I found on youtube.... even though the exact same creator has a channel on odysee.com as well.

However, there are a couple of youtubers also present on odysee, like "3Blue1Brown", "Veritasium" or a bit more niche Jack Rhysiders podcast... think I'm going to test this over the couple of days/weeks for a bit

So let's get this party started here :D

I really love OpenStreetMaps Overpass API. I found the syntax a bit cumbersome at first, but since ChatGPT and the like it has become incredibly easy to write a query.

Baconreader stopped working last week, so I took the time on the weekend to set this up... Very happy with the experience so far (don't even need an app, using it in Firefox on mobile and saving it as an app is the perfect experience)

maybe our generation (if we're even the same, lol) could just hide our boredom better :D But deep down we all needed that teacher who could keep us engaged... but who knows... :)

yeah this. I just a talked today with a Gen Z guy who was still confused of what reddit actually is... now put on top all that federation, foss, kbin<->lemmy etc stuff...

also its not just pure "compatibility", but I had a time when I played vids to my TV over an old laptop (from around 2015). Worked like a charm. But some x265 vids went into full-on stutter mode in scenes where a lot of stuff was happening... was more a nuisance than a dealbreaker, but still, preferred x264 versions if I could get them

Interessant. Habe ich bisher nie von gehört. Benutzt du das?

Und für alle die wissen wollen was das ist und wie es funktioniert (ich hab zuerst auf odysee gesucht, da aber keine brauchbaren Ergebnisse gefunden 😅), hier ein YOUTUBE video

yeah, I fully understand that. I tried it a couple days ago for the first time and I'm still not sure what to make of it. However, I recently opened youtube on freshly installed PC recently and wasnt logged in... oh boy.. all the the influencers influencing about nothing... the reaction videos about reaction videos... and why is everyone still poor when there is so much great advice out there to get rich? I hope Odysee allows to ignore all that crap over time... otherwise I wont stick around long either... we'll see :)

Aber ich versteh deinen Punkt. Ich bin auch skeptisch ob wirklich ein dezentrales Netz bei Videos funktionieren wird (oder auch bei anderen Dingen wie lemmy). Aber dann muss sich nur eine Sache plötzlich ändern und alles verschiebt sich unvorhergesehen... ¯\(ツ)/¯

Stimmt schon... ich sehe sie aber eher als reminder dass Dinge die heute vielleicht als recht sicher gelten in 2 Jahren schon makulatur sein können... :)
