  Most TV apps end your trials and even paid accounts immediately. Apple rather enforces that they have to give the paid subscription till the end of the term. That’s why I like paying through Apple.

  I reckon the problem with that is… what’s the source for the recommendations and then what’s the sink?

  Like, first, how do you get all that information about music, type of music, musicians, year of release etc?

  Then where do you store it? Then you come to the problem of building a robust recommendation engine. Sure that’s one step that seems solvable with open source. Not easy. Solvable.

  Then, what does a person do with the recommendations? So you have to build ways to export to YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, FOSS music solutions. Perhaps plugins are the way to solve this.

  Not saying it’s not doable. Just difficult.

  Though I also believe someone would have tried to tackle it in their capacity in the FOSS world. Don’t know how Fedi plays into this. Maybe an online radio station?

  Spotify scrobbles to LastFM. Maybe they have an API or export solution? All you would have to do is play your playlist straight through once after connecting to LastFM.

  I don’t know about importing it further as I don’t know what Navidrome is.

  “Content creation” IS shitposting. Interacting on social media, on the other hand, is actual posting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's impossible to block every community you don't want to see on Lemmy.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Seems like what you’re describing is that people are really into politics and porn. Are we really that surprised?

  And yes, new ones keep popping up because people don’t like the mod, or think they can do better, only for that effort to fizzle out in a week. Then someone else comes along.

  I also ride the waves of All/Global and hate having to block those weird “thigh anime” communities. But the alternative is an eco chamber.

  I know you’re just kvetching but hang in there, one day you’ll go into Subbed and be surprised how vibrant it is (if you still keep subbing to new communities).

  Or make your own community and ignore that instead. 😅

  Good for a play through or two.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to run a Chrome sandbox in Docker on a Synology?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My recommendation (sorry for the delay in response) would be not to use it as a base. Use the image as such. It has in-built features for screenshots, for using puppeteer, etc. So just use those. Any issues with that approach?

  Has Elongate still not acknowledged whether it’s his child???

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to run a Chrome sandbox in Docker on a Synology?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  By the way, if you get XVfb running for puppeteer (a little further down in the readme), let me know.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to run a Chrome sandbox in Docker on a Synology?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Try using this following project as your base image before throwing puppeteer on it. It includes Jessie Frazelle’s seccomp profile. If you want nightmares, go read her blogpost about it. Otherwise just let it be and follow the setup guide in the readme of this project -

  Oddly specific.

  Shouldn’t they just be called Terranauts? Or Subterranauts?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta Opens Its AI Models for the (U.S.) Military⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  lol someone was concerned about the Chinese military using Meta’s AI models and now the company has opened its models for US military use. Hypocrisy runs high in this timeline.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Omnivore Alternatives?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree with others that you need to break down these requirements into multiple apps. I use FreshRSS for feeds and it has a bunch of mobile app integrations.

  And the most recent update of Linkwarden seems to have a ton of features that might be worth your while, including PDF, screenshot, and Readable caching.

  I’m trying out Perplexity and it’s literally LMGTFY. To the point that sometimes I just open google.com to get what I need. Sometimes it’s just me being lazy and searching for a domain instead of typing “.com” at the end.

  But here’s the thing- for the longest time, google was devolving into LMGTFY too. Don’t you think?
