  • Not sure I understand the question.

    If you mean about getting torrents that could be viruses the way it works I don’t think that would be an issue but they might have stuff in play to make it that way.

    Given the torrents nor files are ever on your computer I can’t see it being problematic. Unless it’s possible to stream a video via torrent and that torrent somehow injecting bad code in.

    Though another advantage to debrid is that majority of the content is cached due to the amount of people using it. So bad torrents would very likely not stay cached long but it could be an issue with more niche content maybe?




  • I’ve recently been getting into programming for work. Which of course has got me trying to learn more about AI. I’m still a super amateur. I started with bing AI cause that free gpt4 access and bypassing the 4k character limit by telling bing not to reply until I’m done. Now I’m primarily using free plan of phind and its vscode extension. Which I really like. I don’t use the buttons that write code as I always write code myself and rarely copy paste. Helps me learn. I just like that it’s quicker without crazy character limits.

    I did recently see that you can pay for bing AI in VS code. Then it got me thinking if I’m gonna pay then I want to make sure it is for something good and prob not Microsoft. So considering paying for phind but now I am trying to look into what others are doing. There’s a world of products I’ve never heard of like hugging face. So I guess it’s time to start my journey on finding which one works best for me. I’ve recently degoogled myself so haven’t really touched bard but if Gemini proves worth it I may.

    Just rambling thoughts from a self taught noob programmer.









  • I too would like to know. I use the app Due on iOS. And it is nice and not a sub (though after 1 year you technically need to buy it again IF you want features that released into the app after 1 year of your purchase. It’s also iOS only and doesn’t let others force a notification on you. But if they have the app they can create a notification and text you a custom link to auto add that notification to your app. For anyone reading who is on iOS and wants something like this. due is really cool. Notifications but with a lot of customization. Most important feature is that you can use critical alerts. So like an alarm it can override silence mode or focuses to notify you every X minute until you snooze or dismiss. Can also disable snooze but then I find my self dismissing without actually doing it.

    Either way a platform agnostic proper notification system sounds right up my alley. Just googling around I found Apprise and Mind might look into that later (don’t know nearly enough to say if it’s a viable alternative to Galarm or Due but seems extensive and lightweight.




  • I used the desktop drivers as well (on arch from the extra repo) for my headless arch server.

    Regarding nvidia container toolkit once it was installed I added this to my Jellyfin docker compose:

    deploy:
          resources:
            reservations:
              devices:
                - driver: nvidia
                  capabilities: [gpu]
    

    Then to confirm, I did docker exec -it jellyfin nvidia-smi Which responded with my GPU. Note that (for me) the “processes” part of nvidia-smi comes up blank, even when Jellyfin is using it. I can tell it is working though from jellyfin logs and when it is not using it, instead of being blank it says “no processes”

    Edit for formatting and to add that I believe I also had to add an environment variable to jellyfin (I am using lsio’s version)

          - NVIDIA_DRIVER_CAPABILITIES=all
          - NVIDIA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=all
    




  • Good to know about the back. I do see that now. Damn it feels good for what it is lol. Thankfully I use the Apple MagSafe case.

    Having a gap between icons didn’t occur to me as something lol. I didn’t do it on my pixels.

    I’ve taken some crazy good pics with this phone. Much better vs my 12 pro. Macro camera is cool too.

    Edit about settings: If app developers are doing it right, iOS specific settings (like notifications, permissions, etc) should be in the settings app where app specific settings should be in their own app.


  • I’m a pixel to iPhone convert but when I did when the 12 pro came out and just got the 15 pro.

    Maybe I misread but a couple confusing points:

    • Isn't the 15 pro titanium back not glass?
    • you can customize the Home Screen easily. Moving apps or even removing apps from the Home Screen and only accessible via launcher. Something iPhone didn’t have back in the day.
    • the pixel 8 camera might be better than 15 pro but I don’t believe the pixel 5 is better.
    • app settings are all alphabetically organized in the settings app. Very easy to find and change app settings.
    • my phone always on silent so I haven’t used custom ringtones in years (even when I was on android) but this guide seems to be good https://www.trustedreviews.com/how-to/set-song-as-ringtone-iphone-free-4324630
    • never realized the different country cards on Apple wallet. Seems like a niche case issue but i understand if you did it before it being a problem. Thankfully American cards on Apple wallet work when in other countries (at least in Canada)

    If I can help at all let me know. I’m the person that everyone was in absolute shock to see me move from android to iPhone lol so I’ve heard it all.
