Ich habe seit langen den Eindruck, die SPD ist nur eine Fahne im Wind. Wird ihr von Koalitionspartnern oder der Opposition genug Wind rübergeblasen richtet sie sich danach aus. Extreme Peoplepleaser als Partei, niemals feste Standpunkte in eine konsistente Richtung. Wes Brot ich ess des Lied ich sing. Frustrierend

Schöne Aktion, da freut man sich doch. Und das nächste Mal sowas wie Schnellbeton nehmen, für das extra bisschen Spaß

There is a really good comedy skit from the german youtube channel Bohemian Browser Ballet, about what if heroin was used like beer in germany. Including the social stigma of not consuming. That really speaks of my experiences not drinking. Youtube Invideous

Though helicopters are not what was envisioned as flying cars most of the time. Including their usability.

I should have mentioned, where I got this from. I'm not an AI researcher myself - so AINAAIR. I'm referencing this youtube video from TheMorpheus (News and Informations/Tutorials about various IT stuff, including AI research)(Video is in german). For example the diagram at 3:00.

The german government had an interesting idea for that. Collecting all the emission taxes into a common fund (like sales tax on each item) and then paying that back to the citizens, the same amount to everyone. If you get the emission pricing right, then rich people (who emit more through their life) will pay more tham they get, while poor people will profit from it.

Though the system is not yet active (because of shit financing tricks that got stopped by the courts and the current inability of the government to actually pay that money out to the citizens)

The optimization in mass production should meet chickens at least roughly for this to work out. Though also interesting would be the health of the insects. I know nothing about that, but maybe we wouldn't need that much antibiotica as with meat mass production.

I don't think banning meat will ever happen. Thats not really how that usually works. Though it will get more expensive. And actually currently the meat industry is heavily supported by governments to keep meat cheap enough for poorer people.

And we won't solve climate change just with eating insects in the same way we won't solve social justice issues just with keeping meat prices low.

We need to do multiple things at the same time. Finding and developing good food options, that are not as taxing at the climate as meat (especially cattle) is one good step, while doing other things against climate change. And we can work towards social justice by heavily taxing the rich, using that money to fund public goods and services mostly used by the workers.

Eating meat vs insect based products is not the socialist hill to die on, I think. There are better ones.

The hallucination rates with current models are quite high, especially the reasoning ones with rates like 70%. Wouldn't call that accurate. I think most times we are just not interested enough to even check for accuracy in some random search. We often just accept the answer, that is given, without any further thought.

Pretty much like everyone expected flying cars to have taken off by now (pun intended)

Why are you even asking here? Why not directly go to twitter or truth social? That seems the obvious choice based on all the red flags in your post.

Eh, I'm pretty sure it is. Haven't had Kodi running for a while, but I used it on a Raspberry Pi with an USB HDD with my content long before I had Jellyfin. Though it cannot stream the content over network, just display it on the machines video output (which is what media PCs do)

 

Hi, maybe you can help me with some tech suggestions. At my local scouts troop I'm one of only a few guitar players. At camp fires I play the guitar and provide lead vocals, so that others can follow (which is important especially for songs, that are not well known). Because only a few can sit directly beside me and others might talk in parallel, I need to sing very loud, to give an orientation, which makes me hoarse way faster.

I would like to have something, that amplifies my voice, with decent quality (so no megaphone), a microphone fixed to my clothes or my head (as I need to play the guitar in parallel) and being portable (easy to carry, relatively small and powered via battery). I am able to spend like 200€ for it (300€ would be the hard upper limit). I can also build something myself, though I would need orientation on what to build exactly. I don't have experience with audio electronics, but with microcontrollers.

Thanks in advance for your help!

 

Hi,

I need help with my first homelab hardware. Maybe you experts can help me with that. I looked at this tutorial about building your own Openshift one node cluster using an Intel NUC, though I’m unsure, if I really should buy one of these.

I have set a budget of 1000€ (I’m located in germany). The tutorial suggests the Intel NUC10i7FNK, which I can get for 450€ new here (would buy 64GB RAM and a 2TB M.2 SSD for that). And I would follow the tutorial in getting a dedicated router for my lab environment.

Can I get more for my money (also in terms of upgradability) with some other product? Or should I just get that suggested NUC? I don’t need it to be that small (can be a tower), but I don’t want real server hardware, since the lab will run in my home office.

Thanks in advance for your help. My brain hurts from comparing products, searching for their availability, etc.

EDIT:

I've now decided to buy the NUC10i7FNK. It seems to be a sensible choice and the tutorial says, that it has enough beef for my first goal of building my own Openshift cluster for experimenting.

Thanks to all of you! You helped me to get to a good decision in this wide field of home lab equipment.

 

Ich habe gerade einen Text wiedergefunden, den ich vor etlichen Jahren geschrieben habe, und dachte, ich könnte den mal teilen. Wurde damals durch meinen Vater inspiriert, der als Markscheider im Bergbau tätig und sehr davon begeistert war. Ich hoffe er gefällt euch.

Einst, vor langer Zeit anno domini XXXXVMCMIIIrömischeZahlenmachenmichverrückt3 da erfanden die Gebrüder Fred und Ingwer Net etwas, das eine große Ära des Wohlstandes auslösen sollte. Und sie erfanden es aus der Not und dem Wunsch heraus, immer wissen zu wollen, wo sich ihr heißgeliebtes zahmes Hausnashorn namens Inter befinde. Zu seinen Ehren nannten sie es das Inter-Net. Ja damals, in einstiger Zeit, als Internetanbieter noch ein ehrbarer Beruf war. Das Erz der wertvollen Bits und Bytes wurde noch per Hand von feinen und arbeitssamen Bergmännern aus den Untiefen der Erde geschürft, ja, das war noch Arbeit für richtige Männer. Oh wie heißt es doch in dem unendlich besungenem Bergmannslied: Glück auf, Glück auf! Der Byte-Mann kommt. Und da tragen sie das Smartphone vor dem Arsch bei der Nacht, ja da tragen sie das Smartphone vor dem Arsch bei der Nacht! Und posten es a--uch und postens auch. Und da hörte es noch nicht auf! Einmal ans Licht des Tages gebracht übernahmen die ehrenwerten Hüttenleute und ihre Arbeit war so anstrengend wie schweißtreibend. In der glühenden Hitze der Flamestorms schmolzen sie den nun glühenden Hass heraus, geboren aus den Teilen der Erde, die nicht für die Erschaffung eines reinen Inter-Netzes geeignet sind, die da wären: Trolle, Nazis, Salafisten und ähnliches Gesocks, dass sich des Nachts in den Bergwerksstollen in den dunkelsten rechten oder religiösen Ecken herumtreibt. Die reinen Bits und Bytes, nun gegossen in stahlharte Pakete, gelangten nun zu ihrer letzten Station, nur noch wenige Schritte von ihrer Vollendung entfernt. Männer, groß wie Kleiderschränke und muskelbepackt wie Eber, schlugen nun auf die Pakete ein, verbanden sie mit den Stoffen http und PHP zu einem harten und doch biegsamen Ganzen und zwangen es durch ihre pure Willenskraft in seine endgültige Form. Die meisten dieser Männer wurden Systemarbeiter genannt, aber nur die härtesten durften sich Administratoren nennen. Und so konnte damals noch ganze Fässer handgemachten Internetzes an die Menschen dieses Landes ausgeliefert werden.

Doch wo sind wir hingenommen? Heutige Anbieter, die die Verträge aus ihrem Arsch ziehen und sie dir als Gold verkaufen wollen, haben keinen Sinn mehr für die Ästhetik eines ehrenwerten, lohndumping- und überwachungsfreien Internetzes. In diesen Zeiten, in denen durch Massenproduktion in jeder Sekunde mehr Internet an jeden von uns geliefert wird, als früher an einem vollen Tag hergestellt werden konnte, haben wir das Gefühl für den Wert dieser Daten verloren. Wir werfen sie der Welt zu Füßen, stellen unser gesamtes Leben online, weil es bestimmt jemanden interessiert, was ich heute zu essen hatte und welche Konsistenz ich in meinem Stuhlgang festgestellt habe. (Interessanterweise entspricht das auch dem Inhalt der meisten Posts bei Gesichtsbuch und Sofort Bild Abkürzung: Scheiße) Wir kaufen beim Online-Händler, nur damit er uns analysieren kann. Warum gehen die Leute nicht gleich zum Proktologen, wenn sie wollen, dass man ihnen in den Arsch kriecht. Und auch ich bin so jemand. Auch meine Daten sind dort draußen und schippern den Amazonas hinab, weiter getragen vom Corporate Marketing und Big Data. Manchmal, wenn ich abends im Dunkeln ganz allein auf den Wellen des Internet surfe, dann wird mir wehmütig und ich vermisse meine lieben Daten. Sie sind nicht die besten, aber sie sind meine. Und dann gedenke ich ganz im Stillen den starken und ehrenwerten Männern des Internet-Bergbaus. Glück auf!

 

Hi,

I'm rather new to web development. For my local scouts troop I'm currently trying to build a webapp to show a big browsable timeline of the troops chronicles (We have many big folders of paper showing what the scouts did that year). I've already build the ground structure based on Django for the backend and vue for the frontend. And I can display the individual elements of the chronicles (Writings, articles, pictures; videos and audio for newer entries) in a list.

Now I want to create a component, that will display a horizontal timeline with the ability to move and zoom, showing elements depending on the zoom level with different level of detail. I want to make it easy to browse the timeline of over 70 years with entries per year (like 30 elements per year).

I already tried timeline-js, but it doesn't quite behave like I want it to be (zooming, different levels of detail,...). For me it seems, that it cannot really be customized enough to reach my goal (though I might be wrong about that).

Then I thought about building that timeline component myself, though I don't know where to start in building such a component (how to draw the timeline itself with its markings, how to draw the elements at the correct position,...)

Can you give me a hint/direction where I should look for a solution? Maybe you know a tutorial for a similar situation (creating your own complex UI components)?

Thanks in advance for your help! Currently I feel like I don't know enough to ask the correct question to a search engine for a solution.
