Unless I am mistaken Lenovo has at least all of the ethical issues of Framework if not more. What would make a used Lenovo better than a used Framework?

So what are you buying instead?

Graduated with an engineering degree just before the teens and have always had multiple round interviews :/

This is one of the actually decent uses of this model. I have used Whisper to transcribe to phone calls, and just the other week I had to export the audio from a video I was working on to run whisper to get subtitles for the video. It’s still not a set it and forget it solution, but correcting it’s small mistakes here and there is so much faster than manually transcribing the audio.

Given how modular ffmpeg is with the way the switches work a user never has to interact with that portion of the application. I can technically use ffmpeg to trsnscode an mp3 without ever using the video components.

Not that I don’t think Bezos is a complete piece of shit, but he is no longer the CEO of Amazon.

Anyway, fuck Jeffrey Bezos.

You are allowed to record content like a broadcast though, which makes me wonder if that means that ripping is illegal, but piping it through a capture card isn’t?

Technically I’m half right and half wrong (I think). It’s not illegal to backup media that one owns, but it is illegal to break DRM/copy protection which is required to rip most physical media these days.

Suffice to say the legality of it is a cluster fuck, but the morality, in my opinion, is pretty clear. Fuck the corpos.

But it is legal in the country he lives in as well as the country YouTube is headquartered in.

Random question for everyone from a bit of a noob. When I’m using Powershell (PS) in windows I can start to type the name of a built in command or one I have added to PATH and then press tab to auto complete the command. That part works the same in my Linux terminal.

What I can also do after I have typed that command into PS is start to type a file name that exists in the directory that PS is working in and then press tab to auto complete or cycle through the files that match and it even formats the name of the file correctly (meaning if it has a space in the name it will wrap the name in quotes so that it is understood by the commands they are fed to). This auto completing of file names even works on files that were created after the PS window was opened. This functionality doesn’t seem to exist by default in any distro I have used. Is it possible to do this in the Linux terminal?

Although I have done some distro hopping, most of them have ultimately been Ubuntu based. Currently running Kubuntu.

I still spend more time on Windows than Linux and I find it much easier to do basic trimming, splicing, resizing, cropping, and other very basic edits of video with just the ffmpeg CLI.

It can be both.

That is just horrendous. I am not a coder by trade or education, but I do a fair amount of it in my job. I may heavily use copy and paste, but I at least make sure it matches the structure of my current code, and I always include the URL to where I got it in a comment above the code.

It might be a bit overboard, but I have a Redmine instance running on my NAS that can likely do everything you want. Some out if the box, some with plugins. It’s pretty nice. If you don’t want to worry about installing it you can download a complete installer from Bitnami.

Researching anything that happened on the internet right now in the future is going to be absolute hell considering how much useful user information and interactions are “locked” behind Discord. Is there a term for something worse than link rot? With link rot it’s a case of a known unknown. With information on Discord it’s an unknown unknown.

Shit that’s good.
