I’m talking about the text in the “The problem with async” section in the article you linked in the OP.

IPFS maybe

Can we stop referring to the “what color is your function” post for languages it doesn’t apply for? Contrary to Javascript (where it does apply), Rust with tokio has adapters for both async -> sync (Runtime::spawn_blocking) and sync -> async (Runtime::block_on). It probably isn’t a good idea to overuse spawn_blocking but calling an async function from a sync one is literally no problem.

I mean I give it a 100% chance if they are allowed to keep going like this considering the enormous energy and water consumption, essentially slave labor to classify data for training because it’s such a huge amount that it would never be financially viable to fairly pay people, and end result which is to fill the internet with garbage.

You really don’t need to be an insider to see that.

It would be interesting to make a Lemmy fork that doesn’t require login and registers all posts as anonymous@(instance). Would probably get insta defederated by every other instance though lol

Each episode in the RSS feed has an audio file (MP3, at least with the one I tested) linked. You can just download that.

Podcasts are distributed via RSS. Use any RSS reader instead of Spotify.

I mean same, but I’d still like to have lossless audio regardless :P

Considering I go around telling people to install NixOS, that sounds about right.

Seriously though, Apple stuff is usually 90%* of the way there with how I want my devices to work. I don’t miss Android at all honestly, on the desktop it’s a lot closer. So much so that when I use my Linux computer, I miss stuff from macOS and when I use my MacBook, I miss stuff from Linux. (I really really wish there was a GNUstep-based Linux desktop on par with KDE. I should get back to messing around with GNUstep, I wanted to look into getting Wayland support fixed, but too many projects.)

* Let’s hope the EU gives that another couple % for the iPhone.

Maybe you should make them a blood sacrifice more often?

The Music client for Mac is still an excellent music manager and player and beats Spotify by a mile despite how visibly much they’ve let it bitrot* since it was iTunes. It’s a shame neither the mobile app nor the web client has anywhere near the capabilities.

* for example, what the fuck is that stupid unresizable header that takes up half the window with mostly empty space and doesn’t scroll off the screen anymore if you set a playlist view to “as Songs”

It is to be noted that while iTunes is DRM-free at this point (which is very nice and surprised me when I found out) it is unfortunately still lossy compressed audio which the perfectionist in me really doesn’t like :P

Come on Apple, sell me your funny ALAC, you have it for Apple Music anyway

yeah. usability > UX

Swipe up to dismiss the alarm, or long press on it to get a menu for snooze/dismiss.

A PTS is a single character device. Writing to it causes output to appear on the terminal buffer, reading from it reads from the input buffer. So, writing to it like you do from a separate shell effectively does the same as calling print() from python which has it as inherited stdio. There is a way to write to a PTS input buffer but it’s not straightforward and works in a completely different way. Use something like tmux instead, or better, sockets.

Double the cost?! Jesus, if it were that high here I wouldn’t. I basically order from two restaurants when I do, for one of them that uses one of these delivery apps it’s around 20% more since they list higher prices per dish than on their menu and have a 1.50€ delivery fee on top, but the restaurant I usually order at where you can order delivery directly has a flat 1.50€ delivery fee with same prices as the menu so that’s around 7% more than going in person (usually I order for around 20€).

It doesn’t arrive cold since they put it in one of these isolation boxes. Especially in the winter I think that’s better than me getting it myself which is a 10 minute bike ride, without an isolation box. I’m gonna have to try that next summer though. Never hurts getting a bit of exercise and I actually never checked until now and assumed it would be more like 30 minutes lol

I would even argue the only way to get self-driving cars that actually work well is with AGI. I don’t think we’re going to get either in a very long time.
