Ah, I see you’re using FartGPT instead of ChatGPT

Cubuntu

Why is “Nintendo of America Inc.” in a different font?

I would and I have, but you can’t always blindly trust what it says. It’s better to ask it to explain in detail the code it produces, so you can really learn and also as a safeguard.

It’s Python what ChatGPT has helped me from almost zero prior knowledge, and I’ve managed to create a (probably shitty) script that works with OpenAI’s API, uses classes and functions and can do things like recursively summarizing a text until it’s below a specific token count, among several other things. As time went on, I required less help and I could implement more changes on my own.

I had prior (non-ChatGPT) Bash, PowerShell and BATCH knowledge.

It’s true that ChatGPT has bamboozled me several times with wrong code, but unless it’s something too complex, it get what I need in a few tries. For more complex stuff I have to use smaller more specific queries and in some cases I still Google things, but it’s usually my last resort.

In any case, I frequenly ask ChatGPT for a detailed explanation of what does the code do, mostly because I want to clearly understand what I’m using, and it helps me learn new coding/scripting stuff.

I prefer 1000 times ChatGPT than asking in forums, specially for coding questions.

I can get multiple answers in a minute, multiple replies for the same question and do as many follow up questions as I please without having to wait patiently for an answer.

I still don’t know how I managed to learn PowerShell on my own using Google only.

This CEO has defended HP’s actions by stating the need to protect intellectual property and highlighting potential issues and security risks associated with non-HP cartridges.

Go fucking jump in a pit of lava, Lores.

I’ve tried with NordVPN myself without any success

And I’ve just found post on Reddit that says “videos that are only available in those countries aren’t downloadable because there aren’t any ip’s that youtube recognize as being from those countries”

I had already checked on archive.org, but I checked again. Only 3 capures that don’t work. It’s a video uploaded 16 years ago that has been blocked for a while already…

On YouTube, the video page loads and on the player it says “Video unavailable This video contains content from NBCUniversal_International, who has blocked it on copyright grounds”

https://seostudio.tools/youtube-region-restriction-checker indicates that the video is only available in the countries mentioned on the post’s title

Why is people downvoting?

What VPN service do you use?

Piped says the same as YouTube: “This video contains content from NBCUniversal_International, who has blocked it on copyright grounds”

There are like 20 invidious instances, should I check them all?

That’s why I don’t use NewPipe anymore. I have it as a backup, but I rarely open it.

I like to log in so that it affects my recommendations and history.

Can I log in with my Google account too?

Y’all speaking about NewPipe and ReVanced, but SmartTube Next, which was originally intended for Android on smart TV’s, works perfectly on phones too.

And aside of blocking ads and allowing you to log in, it has Sponsorblock integrated.

The other day I found a .torrent file for a movie on aMule. It had +20 seeders.

My reply was regarding this:

I honestly don’t even think this is that edgy of a sketch …

The episode came out over 15 years ago…

I resorted to a shitty script that gets the most m4a video quality using grep and awk.

Is the thumbnail embedding a yt-dlp feature?

The fork yt-dlp already downloads in the highest quality.

The problem is that, that’s (sometimes?) webm format…

I hate terminal-based text editors

Nano seems quite user/idiot friendly

Very Reich of them chasing random citizens

We can only trust that Valve acts in good faith if the time ever comes…

Now I’m wondering if any team has released a game both on GOG and Steam and still enabled DRM on the Steam release…

Same here with the original Metro: Last Light.

However, Valve has grabbed us by the balls by forcing use to use Steam to run purchased games. They could go out of business or whatever and people would the entire Steam games library.

I try to buy games via GOG instead if they have a similar offer for the same game.

network feature of the Content and Services, through protocol emulation, tunneling, modifying or adding components to the Content and Services

My interpretation is: “don’t fuck with Steam’s functionalities or network communications”

It has nothing to do with console emulators.

Even nuking the system won’t guarantee that I don’t have the same issue with the mouse cursor and the onboad graphics display while using Mesa drivers.

I’d rather simply get the DP-VGA adapter in a future and then try with Mesa.

I started with the proprietary drivers. I mentioned on Lemmy how “crashy” they were and someone recommended the Mesa drivers as they had good performance and stability.

When I tried to install the Mesa drivers, I completely removed AMD’s proprietary drivers first. I got the Mesa drivers to work apparently, but the mouse cursor was only visible on the integrated graphics display, kind of a common issue. After some troubleshooting I finally got the mouse cursor to show on the decicated GPU displays, but then I had no output on the other display. If I got myself a Display Port to VGA adapter I could quit using the dedicated video port, but at the time I don’t have one.

I know about proton. The original L4D runs quite well on Linux and required zero extra set up. However, I was quite disappointed when I tried the original Metro 2033 (not Redux either) with Proton, as it looked quite worse on Linux than on Windows.

Based on what you say, running Last Light with Proton could be interesting, tho.

Even games that work natively on Linux just don’t look as good because of the difference between OpenGL and DirectX.

I’m replaying Metro Last Light (not Redux) on a new PC with dual boot and I’m just playing it from Windows, even when the game (has) native Linux support.

To get the best grahpics I probably could run the Windows version from WINE as I already got Steam to work with it, but AMD’s GPU drivers are unstable on Linux and I couldn’t get the Mesa video drivers to support my MOBO’s integrated video output that I’m currently using for one of my displays.

I usually complicate things while tinkering to get something working in a specific way, but other times I just don’t feel like it.

I have an RT7900 XTX and I just want to get the best possible graphics with it.

“Ewww! Ubuntu!”

TIL!

You gotta do a workaround [url](url) when the URL breaks like that.

Nah, I may play around with raytracing in the future, but it’s not a must for me.

Well, I will give the open source drivers a try, thanks.

Thanks. I knew about some rare things that you could find on archive.org, but I didn’t know there were “modern” console games too.

Thank you!

Are you talking from personal experience? If so, I might give them a try.

I tought AMD official drivers where the best option for graphics and performance.

Sorry, I don’t know. I ended up with a full AMD build.
