Kann die Nutzung von Briar das umgehen?

I’d gladly save some gas by letting them push me

Hab neulich elektische Zahnbürsten für Kinder gesehen. Batterie/Akku ist wechselbar, der Bürstenkopf aber nicht.

Mit anderen Worten:
Wenn die mitgelieferte Batterie irgendwann leer ist, ist auch die Bürste abgenutzt, und man kann das ganze Ding wegschmeißen.

Aber Hauptsache es wird beworben, dass das Produkt BPA-frei ist, und das kleine Fenster in der Verpackung kein Plastik enthält.

I’m starting to wonder, what will YouTube do once it stops being remotely sustainable to run?

Is more efficient video compression being developed faster than people are uploading content?

Like, at some point, they might just run out of space and will have to purge millions of videos.

Does Connect You work for you? I can send messages, but if someone replies, the notification only shows their number instead of the name I saved them as, and the reply doesn’t show up in the chat itself

Interesting, so it seems to depend on how accessible the manufacturer makes their camera api?

Does that make sense? I don’t know much about how this all works, to be honest

Oh, that sounds annoying. If it’s any consolation, there’s clip-on macro lenses for closer focus that can be had for just a few bucks.

Speaking from experience, you can produce some really cool shots with those, if there isn’t any other solution for that problem.

Ohhh, okay. Gotta say, wouldn’t have surprised me though.

auto-focus on the macro lens just doesn’t work (making that one useless)

So you basically have a fixed focus distance, or is it all over the place because the auto-focus freaks out?

Oh wow, so it’s even worse than I thought. It works on my one+ 5t, but maybe because I’m running DivestOS? Or one+ has just closed down the camera api on newer models

Yeah, the only alternative I know of would be Gcam with unnecessary permissions removed.

Other than that, the LineageOS default cam can use all the lenses, but doesn’t have any useful manual settings.

OpenCamera is pretty damn good, offering pretty much all the manual settings you could want.

There is only one downside to it:
As far as I know, it can only use the phones (back and front) main camera lens. So if your phone has extra lenses for tele, night mode or whatever, OpenCamera can’t do anything with them.

At least from my experience.

That apk can check for updates itself, too

I’m thinking vintage soviet lenses like from Helios and Jupiter, with a bit of Pentacon and Minolta Rokkor sprinkled in

Have someone else tell you what to do

If you don’t have a someone, maybe AI can help you.
Now, let me preface this by saying I have an extreme prejudice against AI, but I can’t deny its usefulness for breaking down tasks.

goblin.tools is a good one, and at least they state wanting to go open source in the future, and be independant from OpenAI. If data privacy is important to you, than that might be something to keep in the back of the head.

But damn, just typing in clean room and getting it broken down into all the little steps is undeniably helpful.

Oh my god, YES

Down to the lenses I’d use and everything

Insane how much energy that is

Unless it’s something dangerous and you don’t know what you’re doing. Don’t want to get a garage door spring to the face

I remember seeing your original post.

Now, how about one step further:
How in heavens can you make Thunar show embedded thumbnails instead of auto-generated ones?

I’m conflicted.

On one hand, you piqued my interest now, but on the other hand, I want to sleep peacefully tonight.

So that’s where the maggots are coming from
