America - the country that cares when its people are killed in other countries - except when the killing's done by israel.

ahh, the sponsor from LTT that mined your PC while at idle :)

that's the best way to put a huge "RAID ME!" sticker infront of your server room

Anyone else remember that time when he said that he won't be sending 1 little ammo crate to israel to try and save face?

That's a pretty normal thing to say when the IDF has bombed Gaza into rubble (not ot mention bombing hospirals,homes, schools, shelters, universities, and mosques, and in some cases, using those places as bases before bombing them).

I bet you have the same reaction when people say "Death to the Russian Army" when Russia bombed Ukraine, getting inspiration from the most moral army in the world.

history class must suck in israel if they're saying shit like this lmao

yeah i had that happen to me too, didn't look in the update screen because updates before went with a breeze but i took another look after VLC wouldn't play anything, it was something with the VLC plugins and i needed to reinstall those, just had to do sudo pacamn -S vlc-plugins-all to get VLC to play video files back, but man, that should have been in the news imo.

mfs too lazy to use the onion smh. yeah it's a little slow but it's the best way to use zlib.

i think Kdenlive has subtitle transcription which you can enable and configure in settings.

the only one acting like terrorists are USA and israel.

ye first time i heard about brave was in a sponsor segment on a youtube video, my first thoughts were "lol another chromium browser? rewards? bar? ok this seems shady as hell" and sure enough it is indeed shady af. the Tor mode had DNS leaks way back (besides who in their right mind would even use tor in a chromium browser), URL injections, brave not giving out BAT, also them spam mailing Brave pamphlets to customers (physical mail too, it was through i think UPS, which idk if that's technically considered a privacy violation, but to me, mailing someone a pamphlet out of the blue when you use their browser without your consent is quite literally a privacy violation, no matter where you got the data from or how you mailed it).

been gladly using firefox ever since version 3, best browser of all time.

self-contained, offline

While on one part i do like the all-ini-one ui and services, i feel as though it could have been done a little better without hosting a mini web-server just to use localhost on it.

Most if not all of the tools here are based on snapshots of online websites running in a browser, along with Docker ontop of it. While the intention is good and there are some neat ideas in here, why not just bundle native, offline FOSS programs that do the job already? for instance, cyberchef can be replaced with respective linux programs (eg base64, hexdump, grep, awk/sed, and gpg, just to name a few. graphical versions of these programs exist as well, so it's not like you need to use the terminal, it's just the most versatile environment for this type of stuff). No need for a webserver or anything.

However i will say, the offline wikipedia and maps are cool, unfortunately they're the only neat things in this project.

Now let's get to the point, an AI chatbot. What, does the dev think we have money to burn? Much less if SHTF and NVDIA RTX GPUs are scrapped for metal? (which they should be anyways). Now i know it's local, and that it most likely has data already trained on it so that it has the 100% guarantee of not huffing its own fumes and hallucinating, but compared to the absolute power usage that'll bring because of the sheer amount of resources it's hogging out trying to spit out an answer, a search engine could do just as good, and it won't hog up your GPU while at it. That's not even getting into the current ssd/gpu/ram situation right now. On its front page, its own recommended spec sheet says 32 gigs of ram. yeah that's a bit steep. 1TB SSD, i could kinda see why, but if i assume that most of the information is just text, you don't really need 1TB, but it is better safe than sorry. Still, that'll be pretty expensive if we're going by today's prices. When SHTF do you really think that most people are going to be rocking killer rigs with 8/16core CPUs, 32+ gigs of RAM and an RTX GPU? For the millionares and spoiled gamers who already have those? Sure, but for the masses? They'll mostly be using laptops with 4-6 cores, 8 gigs of ram, and a mid-range gpu if they're lucky, or integrated graphics.

Sure, you can say that having AI in it is somehow beneficial and tout how "everyone is using it", but don't get all pissy when your power bank runs out of juice at the worst time, let alone word gets out and your place gets raided and your 20-year-old 5090 is turned into scrap. All because you thought AI is good enough.

All in all it's a good premise, but it could be executed way better than just snapshotting websites, then slapping AI onto it and calling it a day.

half to most of these aren't even youtube alternatives, as far as i can guess they're just video hosting for that specific site and its content

Those polls you got your source from are actually polls done by state-run polling facilities. of course poeple are going to say what the state wants to hear. here's a video on it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uQCNjIHeqU

Btw, by saying that "80% of Russians support this war", you're spreading Russian state propaganda.

And of course protests in Russia died down, people get jailed for like 10-15 years in prison if they protest, so by fear of getting jailed, protestors stop. it isn't pretty but it's how the system works.

I always knew Israel were crazy, but they've been speedrunning Russia levels of brainrot ever since Oct 7 (and even before that). Their propaganda just gets more schizo by the hour, it's absolutely nuts.

Very surprising that a local channel of a video game celebrates holidays/certain events of that particular nation in the game. Truly shocking!

Yes, Hamas are terrorists, according to the USA and its allies. Who do you support in Ukraine? Hopefully not Azov, who are integrated in the National Guard of Ukraine, as they're considered terrorists by Russia.

Hopefully you don't support HTS as well, as i've seen they're currently being whitewashed.

But then you'll say that's Kremlin Propaganda (which i do agree it mostly is, they love to make a mountain out of a mole hill).

it's high quality (afaik) if oyu get from Tidal or Deezer (if Deezer works at all, worked before but it's now haing some issues as of late), Lucidia also is a bit unstable as of late but when it works it's a nice little site

hope they're ready for missiles to come down on them

yeah i recall that the connector would melt, let alone that i think there wouldn't be any sort of feedback to ensure that the cable was connected all the way.
