Thanks for clarifying, after I left that comment I realized I had the order of events reversed!

Not using an ActivityPub based platform has it’s drawbacks I guess

When I first became aware of it, I did not expect this story to become a good case for worker’s rights and ensuring everyone has enough rest but here we are.

I agree with you. For better or worse, I have to imagine a lot of people who’s job relies on pumping out regular articles use LLMs to get the ball rolling. Which is what appears to have happened here.

Thanks for sharing, I was wondering if he would say anything about it. They seem to be handling it well.

How did you set them up with Plex?

I tried TubeArchivist a while back but as I recall it was much more about archiving entire channels and didn’t have great customization like “Only keep latest two episodes”. It might have changed since then.

Last time I looked into it something wasn’t working right about it, or maybe it was just more complicated than I wanted but maybe I’ll give it another go…

Can FreshRSS auto-download YouTube videos with SponsorBlock? That could be a game changer…

As others have said, you can run Home Assistant on anything if you want to just test it out. Their own hardware is a great choice though.

But to answer your broader question, yes. Home Assistant is the choice. It works better with literally everything else out there.

Right, exactly. It also takes 3-4 seconds to load in which time I could have just middle clicked and loaded it in the background. Maybe on mobile I’d use it but only in rare circumstances.

What exactly are the AI features everyone is talking about? The only one I’ve encountered is the “long click to preview link” and it’s… not super useful but far from annoying like Copilot.

He seems to be active in replies to his own posts. I recall him being frustrated by a lack of tools available for high follower accounts like they apparently offer on Twitter.

This was an unusual (For Alec) and remarkable episode. I found it very inspiring. Also Alec is one of the few YouTubers I know of on Fedi. @[email protected]

I can see you care about this a lot, so please tell me; in your opinion at what point does a PC cease to be “self hosted”? When it’s carried across the property line? Maybe if the electricity bill is paid by a roommate?

Love to see the people in here gatekeeping “selfhosting” 🙄

We’re all just out here trying to escape big tech. A docker container doesn’t suddenly stop becoming “selfhosted” once the hard drive it’s on crosses a property line. Who the hell cares, seriously.

Yeah I saw that… not really what I would consider a “web backup” exactly. I was hoping they were rolling out encrypted photo storage plans.

I can’t find anything about the web backups in the article or release notes.

Back up an image the entire operating system HD when it’s working well. If you ever get overwhelmed with bugs you can always go back to a functioning state.

We all like checking out the latest features and updates but it’s important to remember that it’s not a race.

Ah yeah I’m with you. I actually think LLMs are a useful tool for that initial push- a search query, rough draft (or demo). But I’m not convinced they could ever move beyond that, since creating rigid, reliable structure isn’t what they’re designed to do.
