I don’t think it’s worth it to argue with a person of such worldview. Maybe someone with more patience than me will reply.

It’s simply the truth. Go around and ask 20 people if they’ve read a single piece of poetry in the last year, and you’ll see what I’m talking about.

It’s not even being edgy. Most people don’t get high concept art in general, and there’s nothing wrong about it. I certainly don’t understand classical dance, or abstract paintings. You need some degree of competence in any art form to truly appreciate it. To think otherwise is incredibly arrogant.

At that point, you’re just paying for training Microsoft’s AI.

If smart people thought like this, we won’t have cryptography.

I’d say that mpv also has a place near VLC when it comes to playing everything.

I mostly use mpv to play local music nowadays. (Most of the music I play is streamed using a Navidrome server with Feishin as the frontend.) Back when I did use a proper audio player on Linux, Harmonoid was my go-to.

These things can be so funny sometimes. My old PC from high school decided to die the exact day when I bought my new laptop. Mf won’t boot up no matter what I did. Had to connect that hard drive to another machine to recover some data. Now I keep backups of everything.

I only use my own installer scripts with LURE, so I’m not sure about the safety of the publicly available repos. But the project itself seems to be pretty solid and reliable.

AUR. If it doesn’t exist on AUR (very unlikely, but happens sometimes), I make a package for it.

On non-arch distros, I often use LURE.

Right in front of me is a guy editing a >10 page LaTeX file in Overleaf on a 13 inch laptop. The sidebar takes like 1/3rd of the screen. The editor in around 3 inches in width, and he needs to zoom into the PDF preview to read it.

My point in, some people simply don’t care about anything.

I haven’t really done much recursion in Python, but can’t we do a tail-recursive version so that it (almost) never reaches recursion depth issues?

You’re pretty much right on the money. In Haskell, a String is a type synonym for [Char], so we can use the list concatenation function ++ to join strings. ++ is an infix function i.e. [1,2,3] ++ [3,4,5] = [1,2,3,3,4,5] (which will be equivalent to doing (++) [1,2,3] [3,4,5] by virtue of how infix functions work in Haskell). When we do (++ "a"), we create a partially applied function. Now, we can supply another string to it and it will add "a" at the end of it.

iterate f x produces a lazily evaluated sequence [x, f x, f f x, ...]. So, to get the nth entry, we can do wine !! n where we use another infix function !!. With partial application, we can modify the definition of wine to create a function that takes an Int n and spits out the nth entry of it by doing

wine = (!!) $ iterate (++" Is Not an Emulator") "WINE"

We needed to wrap the !! inside parentheses because it’s an infix function. $ just changes the order of application. (IIRC, it’s the least significant function.) You can think that we’re wrapping whatever’s on the right of the $ by parentheses. Now we can do wine 2 instead of wine !! 2 to get "WINE Is Not an Emulator Is Not an Emulator".

I’m by no means a Haskell expert. (I’m not even a professional programmer lol.) So, if someone would like to add some more details, they’re more than welcome.

Edit: A much more readable version might be

wine 0 = "WINE"
wine n = wine (n-1) ++ " Is Not an Emulator"

Sorry, I should’ve specified, it’s in Haskell. Idk where you tried running it.

wine = iterate (++" Is Not an Emulator") "WINE"

I’ve been using Gallery for PhotoPrism for a while now and it’s pretty solid.

No, it’s powered by Tensorflow, not an LLM. It’s the useful side of AI, basically, also it’s locally hosted. In case you don’t like it, you can disable it. It’s still a great app.

There’s also PhotoPrism.

Individual philanthropy is never a solution. Most of the breakthroughs happen by public funding. Tax the rich, and fund the research. Don’t let the MFs claim they’re helping anyone out by donating 1% of their stolen wealth.

Yeah, I don’t get it.

I don’t expect that. It should be trivial to have a redirect addon.
