ladfrombrad 🇬🇧@lemdro.idto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What are some cool projects that I can do with a 1st gen Raspberry Pi?English1·6 days agoDo you worry about that Zero being deauthed since it uses 2.4 only still?
I ask as I’m having somewhat of a bit of lag / delay or something I need to look further into later with a Zero/DVBHAT + between my RPi5 / router which is using as its DNS provider (AdguardHome) and because I still use a 2.4GhZ camera (which has also been playing up recently…), got me thinking about having all the cams / Pi’s / SFF PC’s not only hard wired, but turning off the 2.4GhZ weefee altogether on the router due to Flippers and shit.
tldr: should I care?
Ex-barstaff come assistant manager here from a local boozer from many, many years ago.
We had a rule that the barstaff got first dibs on the deals if the smackheads came in with their goodies like you say (meat / coffee / Gillette triple bladers were big sellers…), and only then the customers came second. Crazy how even then your sweet old lady having her shandy top was in that queue 🙈

Any particular reason you can’t share magnet files right here on Lemmy instead?

Backing up off-site all my arrrrr booty is redundant since I’ve shared it to a 2.1 ratio already and hopefully can download it again from people with larger storage than my family member has.
It’s how I handle backing up those photos / videos thou. I bought them a 512GB card and shoved that in a GLi AP they have down there which I sync my DCIM folder to (app was removed from Play Store since it didn’t need updating but Googles stupid policies meant it went RIP…), and I also backup that to the old Synology NAS I handed down to them. I suppose I could use Syncthing but I like that old app since the adage if it’s not broke don’t fix it applies.
Along with them having Tailscale on a Pi4 (on a UPS and is their/my backup TVHeadend server) and their little N100 media box I don’t even bother them with my meager photo collection and works good.

Did a little searching and it seems you could script this to transcribe your calls

ladfrombrad 🇬🇧@lemdro.idto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Looking for volunteers to help host Tahoe-LAFS!English2·15 days agoYour understanding is that you don’t understand what you’re trying to tout.
Which is telling. Toodle-pip beep boop
ladfrombrad 🇬🇧@lemdro.idto Technology@lemmy.world•Android’s next big feature turns your phone into a desktopEnglish1·15 days agoYou want it to auto record every phone call?
Yes. That’s how my phone is currently set up. My ex-wife is a psychopath, so everything gets recorded and backed up.
I’ve got to ask you something here and it’ll probably sound weird, but here in the UK if you did that you’d probably be in for a hard time, legally standing recording others without informing them.
But I’m more curious how often you listen back to these phone calls since you say you record each one, and do you keep lots of them/off-site etc?
ladfrombrad 🇬🇧@lemdro.idto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Looking for volunteers to help host Tahoe-LAFS!English11·15 days agoI think maybe you should just tell us what that 32GB is going to contain publicly, instead of dancing around questions with non-answers.

I do like the short or punchy one after reviewing many bots comments over the years, but, who’s to say using LLM’s to tidy up your rantings is a “bad thing”?
I like popcorn.
Can you expand what went on?
ladfrombrad 🇬🇧@lemdro.idto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Welcome to our instance GenP!English9·17 days agoSeems more like cracking Adobe software like someone said above.

Also, fuck Adobe.

But fuck Adobe, and welcome GenP peeps 😁
ladfrombrad 🇬🇧@lemdro.idto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Welcome to our instance GenP!English2·17 days agoOh. Can you elaborate please?
ladfrombrad 🇬🇧@lemdro.idto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Welcome to our instance GenP!English3·17 days agoI hadn’t heard of genp until that post, but since they’re pirates, they’re welcome on dbzer0, the instance for pirates and anarchists.
Yeah me neither.
But like you say all are welcome and where my confusion lies in having a separate community, for GenP peeps?
Ain’t we all sailing the high seas ,🤔
ladfrombrad 🇬🇧@lemdro.idto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Welcome to our instance GenP!English3·17 days agoSeems a bit odd needing a label of what I take it as “Generation Piracy”?
Maybe I’m getting old, but it seems completely redundant and a stickied post with all the popcorn might be a better route.
Arrr

ladfrombrad 🇬🇧@lemdro.idto News@lemmy.world•Researchers secretly experimented on Reddit users with AI-generated commentsEnglish3·19 days agoYeah like you I was an avid reporter to r/BotBust which when its owner went off the rails one of the team members then setup BotDefense, and I got recruited to resolve the reports from peeps like yourself and our little counterpart bot that flagged them at a fair old rate.
I ain’t seen nothing like BD over here on Lemmy and some of the bot accounts here are at least listed as such but I have seen numerous ones that aren’t “self labelled”. It’d take a fair amount of effort but if you’ve got enough people to review reports (especially the ones from humans) I can’t see why not as it’s basically looking for common markers / traits / flags.
ladfrombrad 🇬🇧@lemdro.idto News@lemmy.world•Researchers secretly experimented on Reddit users with AI-generated commentsEnglish24·20 days agoIndeed and it’s exactly what we did in r/BotDefense before greedy piggy spez shut down the API/communities some built.
I used to watch in amazement at some of the guys who set up bots, to report the bots to us.
Yeah I was of the same mindset for a good while and generally rocked with Nova since forever.
But when that Branch shit came about I dabbled with Neo/KISS/Niagara/Kvaesitso Launchers (which Neo is still the default on my backup locker phone) and others but when I got this Poco F6 I found the system Launcher works fine…🤔
Apart from this stupid thing which I think is more a “Xiaomi/HyperOS thing”, and not the Poco Launcher per se

Something I have noticed thou over these years is I really don’t spend too much time looking, or interacting with my Launcher so kinda don’t care 🙈
