Adding on to this to specifically recommend the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2 soundtrack. Oscar Araujo did masterful work on this, so much so that I even went out and bought the album, even though it was almost impossible to get my hands on it. But you can listen to it on YouTube.

Can anyone help me find an online calculator that can calculate total the price of items I buy. (euro)

So I’m looking for a tool that can tell me the total cost of things I buy. Like if I buy item A for 1,20€, item B for 5,60€ and item C for 10€, it tells me how much the things I’m buying cost, which would be 16,80€ in this case....

Oh, that actually looks really cool! Seems perfect for those times when you don’t want to start up a whole Excel / Google Sheet. That actually seems perfect for what OP is asking for, provided they don’t mind that it isn’t offline. At least it doesn’t require making an account! Pretty cool that you can share pages too.

What a super cool idea, and I love the implementation! I do however keep accidentally downvoting, when I want to upvote, and vice versa, since all other sites that I’ve ever used, display the upvote first, and the downvote second. Any chance of a toggle for that in settings?

A must-have feature for me is the ability to collapse comments on posts. Right now it seems like we can only collapse replies to comments, or put differently, we can only collapse child-comments. Any chance you could make it possible to collapse parent comments too?

You’re an absolute champ! Wishing you all the best with this project going forward, and I look forward to using it more :)

Wow, I appreciate you following up! I can just imagine how much you had to get through. Cheers!

As an extra PS to anyone reading this, this is also possible on Chromium browsers, should you use that instead.

I would be very excited to explore the in-game locations. Hopefully feel really immersed in the universe! And as /u/[email protected] mentioned, I hope it will be possible to solve conflicts through diplomacy. That has always been Star Trek’s biggest draw for me, that it isn’t just about combat and fighting.

I took a look through my power toys settings, but couldn’t find anything there that had to do with the win+v clipboard history. Google hasn’t been any help either. What is it that I’m overlooking? How does powertoys improve the clipboard history feature?

riot ,
@riot@lemmy.world avatar

The Clipboard History is indeed a part of Windows 10. But I was wondering how PowerToys enhanced the functionality of it.

Don’t know if you’re looking for desktop software specifically, but back in the day I used Medisafe on my phone, and that would definitely be my first port of call, if I had to start keeping track of that stuff again.

Do you have some kind of subconscious awareness of interests you already have or know you eventually will take deep dives into at some point in life?

I mean like awareness that, just under the surface, there are deep explorations waiting for the right time and place to emerge; things you’ve set aside or placed on the back burner but will tackle eventually/many you already have tackled....

I really loved Interview with the Vampire, so I was very excited for Mayfair Witches. But wow, those two are very different shows in tone, pacing and dialogue. It was very hard for me to get through Mayfair Witches, and I only finished it, hoping I’d end up liking it in the end. But I won’t be tuning back in for season 2, that’s for sure.

To be fair, I’ve never read the books. I have only ever read the Vampire Chronicles. So it may just be that I wouldn’t care for the books either.

However, in the spirit of this thread - I do want to check out the source material, Lives of the Mayfair Witches at some point. Could be that I’d enjoy it, even if I didn’t like the show.

This sounds really interesting! Can you post an imdb link? I’m only able to find an American show by that name, and it also has technology themes, so it’s making it hard to find anything else.

EDIT: Oh! It is this show, I just misunderstood your reply to ApathyTree, about it only being legally available in Australia and New Zealand. Thanks for the recommendation :)

Inside the shifting plan at Elon Musk’s X to build a new team and police a platform ‘so toxic it’s almost unrecognizable’ (fortune.com)

Inside the shifting plan at Elon Musk’s X to build a new team and police a platform ‘so toxic it’s almost unrecognizable’::X’s trust and safety center was planned for over a year and is significantly smaller than the initially envisioned 500-person team.

According to the former X insider, the company has experimented with AI moderation. And Musk’s latest push into artificial intelligence technology through X.AI, a one-year old startup that’s developed its own large language model, could provide a valuable resource for the team of human moderators.

An AI system “can tell you in about roughly three seconds for each of those tweets, whether they’re in policy or out of policy, and by the way, they’re at the accuracy levels about 98% whereas with human moderators, no company has better accuracy level than like 65%,” the source said. “You kind of want to see at the same time in parallel what you can do with AI versus just humans and so I think they’re gonna see what that right balance is.”

I don’t believe that for one second. I’d believe it, if those numbers were reversed, but anyone who uses LLMs regularly, knows how easy it is to circumvent them.

EDIT: Added the paragraph right before the one I originally posted alone, that specifies that their “AI system” is an LLM.

I’m going off of the article, where they state that it’s an LLM. It’s the paragraph right before the one I originally posted:

It doesn’t. But then, blocking someone on Discord doesn’t even entirely remove their messages from chat. It will just collapse their messages.

Never heard about this show before. I see it only has one season. Do you think it’s worth watching?

riot ,
@riot@lemmy.world avatar

Well, I’m sold! But you’re right, it seems like it isn’t streaming anywhere, or even possible to rent it. Prices on Amazon are a little spicy too, so I may just have to put it on my list and keep a look out for it. Thanks for the recommendation!

Thank you for sharing. I’m adding that to my list of video essay playlists.

And throwing these YouTube playlists in the ring:

Did anyone else dislike TOS in their youth but came around to it when they got older?

I was born in 1989, so I grew up with the TNG era and ENT, and I always dismissed TOS as a kid as the cheesy 60s original version that TNG remade and left in the dust. It wasn’t until high school that I actually sat down and watched TOS and fell in love with it. I even now wonder if Kirk is better than Picard, it’s a debate...

riot ,
@riot@lemmy.world avatar

Well, this is making me reconsider if I should give TOS a chance one day. Maybe once I’ve caught up completely on everything else, I’ll sit down and give it a shot.

That sounds really cool! Is a keyboard like that called something in particular? I’d love to hear which one you got.

I think Shakey Graves is good, but I think Steel Beans encompasses one-man band even better: www.youtube.com/watch?v=louAX5OPPtI

His original stuff is cool too: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFJJ-aYsGl4

I had no idea that it was a Dutch app! It’s really great, I’ve been using it on and off for a year now to great success.

At this point, I just can’t do without Stacks, Tile view, Sessions and Work Spaces. The build-in Periodic Reload is also great, but by far, the most incredible feature is that you can customize your right-click menues however you like. I also have a lot of Command Chains set up in the Quick Command bar.

The amount of stuff that you can customize in Vivaldi has been without parallel for me.
