Some brainstorming from me:

• Ideally people do not buy more teslas
• An initial goal would be to use the vehicle without it phoning home. Would the TeslaMate project be sufficient for that?
• Long term, would it be possible to replace the software running on the car’s console? Or would it be better to tear out the console and replace it with something else?

Alternatively, what would a recycling/conversion program look like?

Gmail’s search and filters have been annoying for some time now. This feels like an overpowered bandaid to that problem

Manually downloading HTML posts would be more difficult, but it might be possible by parsing the data export you can download from Facebook

I should have specified, people we’re downvoting you

But looks like the score is positive again 🙂

I’ve heard Kobo is better than the other big players when it comes to interoperability with open formats / self hosted setups.

As for the servers

The main one

Also (to everyone else reading your comment) let’s not downvote good faith comments, especially when they’re phrased as a question and wanting to learn more

With that in mind, I LOVE how lean and fast some FOSS apps/projects are. One of my motivations to go searching for FOSS alternatives is when something seems slow for no reason.

It’s not always the case, but it’s often the case

Nice timing too, with the warmer season starting

Oh interesting, I didn’t know that was a thing

Quoting from: https://www.reddit.com/r/synology/comments/1bapfkl

The armv8 architecture which the DS218 uses is supported by Container Manager, Synology just put a hardcoded config into the official package to exclude certain models from installing it:

exclude_model="synology_rtd1296_ds118 synology_rtd1296_ds218 synology_rtd1296_ds218play synology_rtd1296_ds418 synology_rtd1296_ds418j synology_armada37xx_ds119j synology_rtd1296_rs819"

Pretty sure the https://github.com/007revad/ContainerManager_for_all_armv8 linked above just removes the hardcoded exclusion and doesn’t need to change anything else to get it to work.

If that workaround looks shady, you might be better off just installing docker directly

Which Synology NAS is it, and can you install Container Manager on it? That might be the simplest option since your files are already on that device. There should be lots of guides out there for it.

Container Manager is basically a worse DockGE / Portainer by Synology. It should be sufficient for pasting in the Jellyfin docker compose, but if you wanted you could also spin up DockGE/Portainer first and do it through that interface (or SSH into the NAS and do it all with the command line)

So the setup would be

• run Jellyfin as a Docker container on the Synology NAS (using either Container Manager or DockGE/Portainer/straight up command line)
• try it out with the web browser/desktop app/mobile apps to see if you like it
• find a setup that you find convenient for the TV (ex. Android TV apps with some device, the desktop app on the PC, etc)

EDIT: Looks like there are official guides for it, as well as lots of videos on YouTube: https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/installation/synology/

I gather Plex is at least semi-commercial while Jellyfin is the open source but worse option.

I haven’t used Plex enough to judge, but from the comments I’ve seen it seems that Jellyfin is now on par with or better than Plex. There was also some news recently about Plex moving more core features (remote playback?) to the paid plans, so I imagine there will be more people moving over soon.

There are a lot of options for client side apps, official and unofficial, so you might be able to find something specific to your setup

I thought it might be in settings but I don’t see it. For me, I got an option for “just this one” vs “always” when I tried to open a video, and it seems to be remembering that.

You could try backing up any settings and resetting the app to see if you get anything different, although it really should let you pick a default at any point

The Fossify one is decent

IIRC they stopped collecting data briefly because it was affecting the sites they were checking. They must have fixed that since it’s running again

On my end, both were pretty bad

Content moderation seemed to be non-existent, and the reports might as well have gone into the trash

Also no matter how much I tried to control the feed, I’d still get content that was gross (trypophobia), sexual, or chumbox like.

So while lemmy.ca is a Canadian instance (hosted in Canada, run by Canadians, etc.), it’s federated and so you can still connect to communities everywhere else. I would recommend skimming through these two pages :)

https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/get-started

https://fedecan.ca/en/guide/lemmy/for-users/detailed-overview

Each community is free to decide what content belongs in it, and users are free to subscribe to the ones that match what they’re looking for. If it helps, you can find some more Canada specific communities here:

• pinned post of Canadian communities: https://lemmy.ca/post/2890824
• communities that were made on lemmy.ca: https://lemmy.ca/communities

I don’t know if we have a community specifically for Canadian news, but the country / province / territory / city communities generally fill that niche.

I personally prefer to only use my subscribed feed (instead of all) so that I can curate it the way I like it

The description sounds more like an AI receptionist than an AI nurse. It would be helpful if patients could ask follow-up questions to the automated phone call before an appointment. Some clinics don’t have the manpower for that, and especially not in all the languages that the local population might speak.

I’d be interested in seeing how good the model actually is, and how it determines when to pass it along to a human

The concern is with making sure the AI model is only used where it makes sense. Those who are looking to cut costs will try and use it everywhere, and that needs to be kept in check

The GoodKarmaToolkit in particular is an extra project that is managed by ArchiveBox, but the listed services aren’t made by them. I’m not as familiar with ArchiveBox itself, and it looks like there’s an open issue about AI stuff: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/1139

There is another called Data Hoarder that does this job too.

Yup, Hoarder was the one I was planning to use for bookmark management: https://hoarder.app/

[no major spoilers in this comment]

I asked two separate friends in the medical field for what they thought of the show, and both of them started with saying that the character is annoying 😄

I think that’s the goal, since there ARE people like that in the field that are difficult to work with. It also gives her room to grow and be ‘humbled’ through the course of the show.

Maybe Snapchat

I’ve always heard of snapchat being the worst of them all, so maybe it depends on what kind of content you follow?

I with the Pixelfed creator would just focus on Pixelfed, I use that and it’s a total win, just needs some kinks worked out and more popularity.

Now that they have some funding and are building up a small team, it might let them focus on a few things at once. I agree though that it won’t replace Tiktok. At this point, doomscrolling is a psychological addiction that takes effort to move away from.

The key is that you need to subscribe to the type of content you want to see. There’s no company here deciding what your feed is going to be.

@[email protected], what kind of stuff are you interested in? I’m happy to help you find related communities :)

I can also see some people being opposed to them spending the donation money on ads, since they’d be giving money to companies that may be in opposition to what we’re doing here (or ideological reasons around the advertising industry in general).

Maybe if there was a separate pool of donations specifically for advertising, then people who want to support that can donate to it? Those who don’t can still donate to the projects themselves
