• What is your current EDC?

  I am a big time overpacker, at least until I go on a trip and hurt my ankle and then scale back. This loadout in my camera backpack is on the overpacked side https://mastodon.social/@UP8/111091984601991594 since I can't make up my mind if I want a manual focus 50mm that opens to 0.95 or if I want to do sports, birds, and a little bit of macro work with a 100-400mm zoom, or shoot stereograms, or play with a... - Source: Hacker News / 2 days ago

• How to generate realistic people in Stable Diffusion

  I find all those photos generated by Stable Diffusion to be kind of repetitious and boring. Eking out something "interesting" is difficult, especially with limited time and low-end hardware. Interesting is highly subjective of course. I tend towards the more artistic / surrealist style, usually NSFW. Only nudes, no pornography. I've been experimenting these last few months with interesting generating... - Source: Hacker News / 8 days ago

• Apple's Silicon Fab Next to Homes

  I cannot tell if you are joking or not. But it is obvious she is litigating in public until she gets the payoff she wants: https://mastodon.social/@ashleygjovik Of course a big corp cannot give in easily to behaviour like that as it would just open the flood gates. - Source: Hacker News / 10 days ago

• Systemd Looks to Replace sudo with run0

  Close to nine-hundred comments¹ when Lennart posted about run0 on mastodon² a couple of months ago. ¹ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40205714. - Source: Hacker News / 11 days ago

• What's the Difference Between Mastodon, Bluesky, and Threads

  >I'm not optimistic about non tech people easily logging into mastodon.192.168.555.2.xproxy.remoteinstance2452456a1.mirror.com. Why are you trolling? Mastodon instances have normal URLs like https://mastodon.social, and you can just log in there like any other site. And there's a ton of "non-tech" people on Mastodon.. In fact the people who seem whine the most about how hard it is are the "techies" on HN. It's weird. - Source: Hacker News / 15 days ago

• The real reason Amazon purchased Twitch. To plant "streamers" as part of the "Amazon Influencer Program™"

  Idk about app, but youtube.com/gaming is pretty simple. Source: about 2 years ago

• Twitch has gone completely down.

  You have to go to youtube.com/gaming - the youtube.com/live is just... I have no clue wtf they're doing. Source: over 2 years ago

• Cr1tikal on if Twitch would care if xQc left

  I really think they need to separate "Youtube" and "Youtube Gaming". A lot of people have their name as their Youtube account and shit (a huge problem for the chatting experience I think), and every stream is hidden inside your front page or whatever. When I go on youtube.com/gaming I see a lot of videos, clips and live streams and its a cluster fuck. Source: over 2 years ago

• [IDEA] What if you guys made an app specifically for viewing live streams on youtube.

  YouTube often recommends curated channels for specific topics like this one. Source: almost 3 years ago

• DOC on youtube vs twitch

  Extension called "YouTube Livestreams Theater Mode" fixes chat and video player. Extension called "Emotesly" adds the emotes, and https://youtube.com/gaming is the per category directory. ΒΟΟΜ! Literal end result close as hell to twitch but with better video qual. Source: almost 3 years ago
