Same boat dude. That’s how I got YouTube premium. I uploaded like 500 GB of music for Google Music to host it and I could stream my own collection. Now I use Navidrome and my own server.

It’s only a matter of time until the premium users get ads. Just like Netflix, and cable TV before that. You will inevitably wind up paying to be advertised to.

True, but it wasn’t the cloud provider that caught it. They just forwarded the letter to me from the company that monitors torrent swarms and records IPs.

Lol, I’ve been on that train for a decade. I just wanted to try using my own personal VPN server to torrent which kinda defeats the purpose of a VPN I guess.

So I’ve rented a server for years. It’s in the US and it’s a couple bucks a month. It’s fun to play with and I use it however I want. I’ve had an email server, a next cloud instance, and an open VPN instance to name a few things on it. Well I decided to connect a torrent client from my home to the openvpn instance on my server to see if I could do it. It worked really well until the company I rent from forwarded the DMCA hit back to me for downloading Rick and Morty. I should’ve known better but I thought a nameless faceless server farm wouldn’t be worth the hassle of a DMCA but I was wrong.

Lofty goals, but you don’t choose the Aerostar. The Aerostar chooses you.

I’ve never seen this particular error, but CPU stall warnings seem like a fairly common thing. I wouldn’t jump straight to hardware fault, but it’s a possibility.

Yo mama so old her social security number is 1.

Why do you say it’s a scam? I have not found a better alternative that produces decent search results. It’s not incentivized to send you to any particular websites, and I can personalize the results how I like.

I actually have an instance of searxng as well. I use it with my local chatGPT.

Not an ad, but Kagi is worth it. I’m ok with paying for search tho.

Damn, how is the Prey 2017 version one of my all time favorites but I didn’t know there was a 2006 Prey game.

Here’s the album art for Electriclarryland. I made the mistake of clicking on wiki article that inspired it. Wouldn’t recommend.

I’m not sure what is these days but according to Merriam it’s the capability of computer systems or algorithms to imitate intelligent human behavior. So it’s debatable.

interesting it uses eBPF.

I wouldn’t say LLMs are going away any time soon. 3 or 4 years ago I did the Sentdex youtube tutorial to build one from scratch to beat a flappy bird game. They are really impressive when you look at the underlying math. And the math isn’t precise enough to be reliable for anything more than entertainment. Claiming it’s AI, much less AGI is just marketing bullshit, tho.

Guess that makes sense. Still not putting a stick person family on my car.

Has anyone ever seen a baby on board sticker and thought “well I was going to drive recklessly, but I better not”

I’m going to go out on a limb and say that at this point Ticketmaster might be one of the most hated company in America.

16 gb of non-upgradeable ram seems a little light, but I’m not familiar with RISC. I would like to get one to play with tho.
