Way to go, turning a legitimate question with legitimate answers into an opportunity to insult an unrelated group of people 👍🏽

Is Sharon Apple somehow involved? Can we get a list of virtual idols with suspicious behavior?

I thought maybe the hidden wiki would be something cool and interesting so I googled it. Interesting but not cool.

That was me. My mistake.

It seems like a lot of work maintaining healthy poly relationships. I don’t think I’d be able to manage it, though I have a few friends who apparently are very happy doing their thing

Dang I wish I knew that at the time. I had to run it many times before I was satisfied that my history was properly edited before deleting everything

I can’t speak to the article that you’ve posted several times due to the paywall, but I can speak to the language and the antagonistic attitude they actually used during the entire debacle. Placing explicit blame on third party apps like Apollo, Sync, Boost, etc.- that was the argument used. It doesn’t matter what the real reason was. They were publicly placing blame on small fish instead of the AI monster that was stealing all of their content and bandwidth

IIRC that was not the case. They very publicly blamed 3rd party apps, which was both disingenuous and not transparent.

You think it’s expensive now, but wait till everyone with all that California tech money rolls in and starts buying everything sight-unseen. And in cash.

Chiming in that editing with proxies, while potentially cumbersome, is pretty standard. Feature films and TV shows are often edited in 720p for that exact reason. ProRes or h.264, depending on your needs and capabilities. Final renders are just a matter of turning the proxies off.

I dabbled in kdenlive for half a day while looking for something my nephew could use for a school project. Didn’t realize the lack of hardware acceleration until this thread. Still, it’s a great piece of software and I’m looking forward to watching it develop further

I went to their about page and realized I was in over my head.

db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com is one cool dude. Their fingerprints are all over Lemmy in an obviously much needed manner. I’m glad I joined their instance.

Yep my buddy at VMware was waiting to get laid off all year. Finally happened two weeks ago

My niece had this same issue a few years ago but with Photoshop. It absolutely ruined her. Changed schools multiple times (public and private) but social media exists so all the kids knew. She ended up getting homeschooled for the last 5 years of school as well as a fuckload of therapy. She came out the other side okay but she has massive trust issues and anxiety

Me for the pixel 8 pro. I’d rather the regular pixel 8 but if I’m going to keep this thing for 7 years (which I will; typing from a pixel 2) then I want it to be as feature rich as possible. Not looking forward to how big it’s going to be when it finally gets delivered

He looks like the mangled villain in Red Dragon. You know, the guy Hannibal the Cannibal fucked up with a piece of glass?

I turned it on for a couple of days when it first came on but it really messed with my texting and I hated it. Why implement a feature that makes it worse for fi customers?

You’re in the wrong community. Boost is not open source. Fwiw I also like Boost.

Just downloaded it yesterday. Is there some way to get it to cast to other devices (eg Alexa, Nest, TV, etc)?

I don’t know if you’ve read The Three Body Problem but that’s the image in mine
