Are the two Linux devices on the same IP subnet?
Are any of the other KDE connect features working?

For a second there I thought you were advocating for fluorescent green or monochromatic CRT screens of old.

I wonder how health insurance providers would then find ways of carving out new coverage exemptions for treatment to upper lips.

I kind of want to see a charter plot of that scoring function projected onto a 3-axis manifold with a colored heat map. How would I minMax my anticipated score given my current age or projected lifespan?

Also, no one like to sit with their back to the walkway corridor, with other guests and staff constantly squeezing past and behind your seat.

This feels similar to reading further product reviews or customer comments between the time of purchase payment and shipped delivery for an online shopping. Anyone else sometimes do this?

With the release of a new LTS, I think I’ll finally catch on a little sooner this year, just as soon as my Ubuntu based distro upgrades to v24.04.

That clip was really short and sweet.
Really enjoyed the hand painted water color animation.
Would also a perfect cross post for Deep into YouTube.

What about a hyperspace bypass?

Did anyone else growing up have a vinyl record player as a kid? My dad brought his out of storage one year because it had a number of old Christmas albums. So over the Christmas holiday, I’d rotate through the entire collection, yet some of the records we’re much shorter like singles, or much older in production precision, so they came in smaller diameters and took faster feed rates. When switching back from the smaller to the larger diameters, I did forget to turn down the rotary speed, and so we’d inevitably start listening to old Christmas carols and ballards as if they were being sung by the Chipmunks.

It feels like we’re finally, and thankfully, coming full circle. I remember buying my first digital camera in the early 2000s, specifically chosen because it was one of the many that included USB web camera functionality. Aside from downloading the photos on its internal storage, external storage was optional, you could also use the included software to serve as a webcam source.

I can’t remember if it included a microphone, I’m thinking it didn’t. It also ran off on those small stubby film camera batteries, and not off USB power from the cable you connected it to, which was kind of dumb, and made it expensive to use as a webcam. The video quality must have been something around 140p, and any kind of conference call software was garbage back then as well. Yet the premise of a single device having multi-use features was such a no-brainer, given you already had have the PC USB integration to use it as a point and shoot digital camera.

Modern smart phones have such excellent cameras, it felt really odd that you had to use a lot of hacky work arounds and reencoding over network streams to emulate the same functionality that some of the first affordable digital cameras on the market had decades prior. I spend some time looking into weather a custom Linux kernel could be used with Android to emulate the standard USB profile of a UVC camera device, but it’s really nice to hear that this kind of functionality is being pushed through Android mainstream development.

Guess it only took a pandemic and Apple to showcase the same functionality to spur the core Android development into gear to match feature parity.

Oh, nice tip! Any good way of emulating that on a mobile Android keyboard? Or do you just copy and paste a lot? Perhaps this could be done with a custom autocorrect dictionary injury?

There was a fairly big 40K lore channel on YouTube with a rather good AI impersonation of David Attenborough’s voice and narration style/scripting. However, I just went to check it, yet it must have recently gotten hit with a DMCA and taken down. A shame really. Though I never got into 40K lore before, or the 40K franchise in general, I am a big fan of David Attenborough, and so that ended up really drawing me in to a new literary universe. However, it was a big mistake by the YouTube creator to use the name and photo likeness of Attenborough in the branding, video titles, and thumbnail art on the channel. I think without pushing that line, the AI voice with a clear disclosure could have kept the channel under the legal radar.

From the pinned comments made here, this looks to be the same creators new channel, now using a different voice, no longer based on any one real person:

On a meta note, I just fell for your community link.

I do as well. I really appreciate the information density, key bindings, and optional web UI. Although I found if I leave glance is running for a prolonged amount of time, it has a tendency to crash from some python issue I haven’t dissected yet, as it takes so much time to reproduce.
