Hi,...

As I’ve said in the title, the ECHR is hugely important, from the right to an education to the right to vote, human rights protect a large variety of aspects of our lives. The idea that we could lose these rights due to “boat people”, is terrifying. We need to start talking about how valuable these rights are, and start...

I’d like to make music, techno, electronic music, beats, whatever you want to call it. How can I start easily? I remember that I made some basic beats 15 years ago. It was straight forward but I can’t remember the software. I tried a couple of DAWs but they have a steep learning curve and I couldn’t find good introductory...

I am using a Dell Latitude 3420 (Ubuntu 22.04.3) and it uses a slightly older OEM kernel 5.14.0-1048-oem. The generic kernels keep getting upgraded but are never used. The current generic that I have is 6.2.0-26-generic and 5.15.0-79-generic....

Hi y’all,...

Back in the 80’s I used to listen to a college station that added reverb to all the music–like it needed it back then. I’d like to add that effect to the music I play on Spotify( for nostalgia of course), is there a free/paid app that can do that? I looked but the only apps I found said it just edited MP3s not streaming...

I have been in search of a legit caller ID option for my android phone and I can’t seem to find much info out there. Personally, I like to know who is on the other end of a phone number trying to contact me; especially catching spam callers. I tried the true caller route (I know, its not self hosted) and its good at what it...

This is an abstract curiosity. Let’s say I want to use an old laptop to run a LLM AI. I assume I would still need pytorch, transformers, etc. What is the absolute minimum system configuration required to avoid overhead such as schedulers, kernel threads, virtual memory, etc. Are there options to expose the bare metal and use a...

Seriously?

What tech if any have you found interesting lately?...

So I’m sitting here looking at a black widow on my porch and it’s a big fat fucker. I wanted to take a pic but I don’t want to get too close. Yet the image my camera picks up looks like I am trying to snap the pic from the opposite wall of the porch when I’m only about 2 feet from the spider. Why is that?
