What will the majors changes be after the AI bubble pops?
Jump
gedaliyah @lemmy.world 2mo ago
The industry will end up with one or two winners and a lot of losers. Very hard to predict these things (smart money in 1997 was that Apple was about to file bankruptcy). One or two companies will have success and the rest will evaporate or be absorbed. Then the AI product itself will be priced up (and dumbed down) significantly.
AI will not go away, but will be far more limited and specialized. The day of free general access to powerful chatbots will be up.

What do you think, if our civilization is destroyed globally, what will the people of the future blame us for?

Are pay-by-the-minute phone plans a thing of the past? (US)

Jump

gedaliyah @lemmy.world 2mo ago

Here is a plan for 5$ per month for 300 minutes from tello.

Edit: To clarify, I don't believe a true prepaid minutes only plan exists in the U.S. This was the most basic/cheapest plan I was able to find.

Can you imagine how much energy is stored in a transporter buffer?

I mean, they're flying around in a big engine that bends the fabric of space, so maybe it's not such a big deal a few hundred years in the future. I guess it's like comparing a furnace and bellows with a nuclear reactor.

They also have the most amazing eyes in the animal kingdom. We're pretty sure that they have depth perception based on the different refractive indices of light.

Immich vs Ente ?

Jump

gedaliyah @lemmy.world 2mo ago

Pretty much the exact same experience here. I just removed my wife's photo storage from Google completely as of this month 🎉. Don't even need the security blanket anymore. Immich is it.

I had a mini panic when moving from v2 to v3 was not automatic today, but it was a 15 minute fix, that was mostly just reading the step-by-step instructions for the update. Copy-pasted a handful of lines and we're off!

To me it doesn't read as AI at all. It's a bit bloviating, but that is the style of a lot of blogs.

If I had a nickel for every time that song came up on Lemmy this week, I'd have two nickels, which is not a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Which music player do you use on android?

Jump

gedaliyah @lemmy.world 2mo ago

You might be interested in Rush, which detects music from your "now playing" and displays the lyrics beautifully. Then you can use whatever local player you like for your library and have great lyrics experience regardless.

If you end up setting up a home server with navidrome or similar, Chora has the best lyrics search and display. The website also mentions local playback, so it may meet your need, although I've never used it that way.

It's been a while since I've used a local player, but the best ones I've found were Oto Music (closed source), which has very good lyrics search and support, and Booming Music.

PixelPlayer also looks like a promising new option.

Recommendations for music-setup?

Jump

gedaliyah @lemmy.world 2mo ago

Navidrome works best with a library that is already well-organized, but it can do some things in terms of library management, particularly with the use if plugins.

There are some good tools for organizing your library, such as beets, Picard, etc. I did not have good luck with beets because I find it a bit complex for a CLI tool, and a lot of my library is composed of singles and mixes. It seems to do better with whole albums. I use Strawberry player for local library management, which has tools like Picard built in, and also connects to lots of things like lastfm if you want. You can also add lyrics with a tool like lrcget.

If you have existing playlist files saved, Navidrome will automatically import them. It can also make new playlists, and there are plugins for smart playlists, etc. Once you set up Navadrome, you shouldn't have to touch it very much because it will automatically monitor and update your library if you set it up correctly, which is not difficult at all. It's a little bit more specialized and so has a little bit better setup for music than Jellyfin, in my opinion. And it has far more front-ends on various platforms. I do use Jellyfin for all of my TV and movies, though.

Tempus is phenomenal. I switched to navidrome on my server to use it. Chora is also good, and I use it on my TV (works well on any screen). If you don't mind closed-source, Symphonum is excellent.

If you are using Jellyfin, it works well on PC, with Fintunes on mobile.

You can find a number of good apps for navidrome here. I quite like Strawberry, which is cross-platform. I use it locally for library management.

I connect everything with Tailscale, which is dead simple.

Feudal Tactics rarely shows up in the "best of FOSS" lists or games lists. Yet I think it's one of the most engaging and nicely balanced single player, local games out there.

How do you get out of your own head?

Jump

gedaliyah @lemmy.world 2mo ago

Some people find it helpful to name the negative self-talk voice. Then you can say things like, "shut up, Karen. You never have useful suggestions."

There is also something in toddler parenting called a "no thanks bite." That's the first vite of food that you have to decide if you want to say "no thanks." It works with toddlers because there is less pressure around eating, and you are allowed to try new things that you might later decide not to have.

The adult version is the same. When trying out a new health routine, etc., you can do a "no thanks try." Say, I am going to go to the gym this week and next week. If it works out, I may go again after that, or I may not. It just depends on whether it fits in my routine.

Remember that we have routines for reasons. We don't always know why. Routines are very hard to change while the underlying reasons persist.
