Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Anna's Blog: AI companies destroy physical books — let’s scan rare books before it’s too lateEnglish
19·1 day agoYou are correct.
Just want to add one thing, there MUCH easier ways now than those kind of setups. Its just not as cheap/accessible. I worked at a library and there is specific setups for certain kinds of books you cannot reproduce and still need to get a good scan in.
Mine just updated today. Its been working out for me and my family for 6ish months now. Cant complain.
Unrelated to the thread. Thats a great username. [Object Object] haha.
It was fun in college and a bit after. You dont lose anything learning it.
I personally like python more for scripting an MVP out really quick. Ocaml has some nice algorithmic stuff and I remember a UI library that made it fun.
Sounds good let me know how it goes. Its been 2 years for us and while the initial projects were somewhat vibe coded. Theres just more software doing things so ironically it means much more work for us.
We went through 1 months worth of tokens in 5 days. It was a 4k bill lol.

5·6 days agoI remember most people had more copies than real. But ironically the people wiyh the biggest collections would often buy the offical releases.

I personally like it over here on piefed.
Sdf is awesome.
A lot on docker and yunohost.
Gotosocial is the most used service for the family.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you feel about Video posts on the Threadiverse?English
2·8 days agoOne final note: mastodon/gotosocial complains about lack of metadata:

Which is what I would expect.
So to summarize. Yes its all over the place with descriptions and video data all over the fediverse. It would be nicer if people put something in the description. And if fedi clients can maybe auto-push the description on the video to the post like it occurs on peertube/piefed that would be nice as well.

4·8 days agoInteresting. So in the original feed it attempted to pull inthe metadata:
looks like it was not successful. Maybe a different language?On piefed it was also not successful:
So the metadata didnt show up.https://kbin.earth/ showed the reposts:

Its all over the place. I can see this being frustrating!

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do you feel about Video posts on the Threadiverse?English
3·8 days agoI womder if this is a limitation on the lemmy side. Piefed and mbin(?) And other fediverse services have more info when viewimg videos and pulls in metadata at time of run. Youtube/peertube/raw videos. Users may be assuming the same info is making its way into the community.
Is there a good example somewhere of a blind link i can look at? We can make a comparison and/or comfirm the issue.
I wonder sonetimes how many are bots nowadays. Im 20+ yr experience at this point and my last two jobs came from referals. Im cali so maybe different markets? Thanks for the perspective!
I feel you.
Not sure about Meta but Amazon is the worst ! I used to tell them I was not interested, only to have another recruiter a month later cold call me/email at least 3 times a week and just keep going. After the 6(!)th time, I started auto-blocking and auto-filtering their emails. I have hundreds in my mail box over the years. I think they get reciters by the thousands then lay them off after a bit of time.
I hear ya. Ive had to do training at work and its surprising how little training some have in a field. But after a couple of months of training, they are 1000x times faster at doing things. They WANT to do a good job (most of them anyways). but most places ive worked at expect people to be able to do everything while getting paid entry level.
Sounds like its hard all around!
