It does work good enough, but we can do simple HTML 5 video as a fallback. If we compress the videos for playback and provide a zip for full quality videos, I’m sure a 10 gigabit server can handle the load. Video hosting is really not a problem we can’t solve.
Maybe only allowing OC
May happen if we have copyright problems, but somebody else singing a song is usually fine considering the amount of covers on YouTube.
What about the platform to host the media
Another user suggested PeerTube. I will build a simple web page with submissions from each year put together in a nice way via embedded PeerTube players.
We could backup the videos to several instances, offer archival downloads, but the internet will probably do its thing and back it up thousands of times as soon as we upload anyways.
I was about to crunch the numbers to check for myself, thanks for doing it, you did a great job.
Amazes me how they made it work considering the amount of arcane shit it takes to make jet engines work. Of course it is possible since electric motors are torque monsters, but it still must’ve taken insane efforts to make it work.
I wonder if we’ll see these flying anytime soon or if they’ll get shot down by the fossil fuel i industry just like everything else that is amazing
Yikes. I don’t play many online games so I am not very knowledgeable on the situation over there. I just used online-fix a few times and it was so horrible I had to buy my second piece of paid software.
I wonder if it’s vibe coded or properly built, from what I’ve seen they generally don’t use their own slop machines
or, you can just pirate and never give money to the antichrist
This isn’t algospeak, it is censored as an insult, like Tr*mp.
There are like at least 100 people in this thead who lost their mind moment they saw the asterisk like a conservative hearing the word “socialism”
Won’t laptop manufacturers need to get CPU manufacturers to produce socketed mobile CPUs again?
I don’t think that would be very profitable. Spending lots of money negotiating with the CPU company just for a very small fraction of customers.
The buzzwords make my head hurt. Sounds like a copypasta
I hate how Apple users feel the need to call their computer by the brand. It really makes me cringe.
It is called “a computer”
Maybe “PC”
“box” if you really have to flex that UNIX
They should treat their computers less like a sports car and more like a van
Oh I completely forgot about this
I was halfway through designing a fake CDE-styled login page, then I failed to fit it in mobile browsers and then I got distracted.
The file is still sitting there https://aesistril.com/login.html
So initially, this login.html was the homepage and home.html was to be reached by clicking a button on this page.
When I scratched the login page idea, I just renamed index.html -> login.html and then linked home.html -> index.html
Well I could’ve just renamed home.html but I am way too UNIX-headed for that. Lets say its a symbolic link so I could change the homepage easily in the future
If you want something boring, use a static site generator like Hugo. But you already said you found them restrictive
I built my previous site with Ruby Mustache, an extremely simple templating thing. But I abandoned it because it got hard to maintain.
My current site is plain HTML and CSS. This is the way if you want ultimate customizability. It works pretty good and I would recommend it. Simpler is better.
Remember: Having a website was one of the ways people communicated on the net back in the day. HTML and CSS are intended to be used by regular people, they are very easy to learn. Don’t be scared of them
There is no decent WYSIWYG html editor i know of
Woah wtf is this the Mr. Fediverse itself
It also kind of takes its roots from my frustration with garbage in my home or leftover bullshit in my root
It’s not viable to ditch native packages 100% (like immutable distros). But a combination of two is pretty comfortable imo
But as I said, I am not comfortable with the way flatpak does some things
Small SSD + compression is faster than HDD with no compression ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Plus I’ve been planning to upgrade my (8gb) RAM and SSD, for like, the last 5 years? Never gonna upgrade lol
Exactly what I’m talking about. It reminds me of the time microsoft introduced memory compression to compensate for every application bringing it’s own DLLs
But I still think flatpak is superior to windows way of doing things because it actually has dependency management. I kinda like the idea of having multiple versions of the same library but I wish they did not come in big bundles (runtimes), but instead, came in small 1-2MB pieces.
download random binaries from non-trusted distributors that contain a copy of every library that software needs to run This is overexaggeration. Flatpak, unlike places windows users get software from, is moderated, and flatpak (although chunky) has shared dependencies
I feel shame when I go to reddit because I hate seeing “Yaaaay!!! 10 day streak!!! You are addicted woooohooooo!!!”
Oh my god they were debuggers!
@django@discuss.tchncs.de in the comment section pointed out that fedivision already happened in the past. It seems like fedivision worked fine with fully original content so I might just make the contest about original songs to save on copyright headache. I’ll probably just call it a continuation of fedivision with the same name.
Regarding the Avril Lavigne lawsuit, it happened during the times when music industry was particularly being assholes, but I get what you mean: we can never guess how far
billionaire protectionahem copyright laws can go.
