Way to go, turning a legitimate question with legitimate answers into an opportunity to insult an unrelated group of people 👍🏽

You’d be surprised how little money it takes to influence a US politician

Is Sharon Apple somehow involved? Can we get a list of virtual idols with suspicious behavior?

I thought maybe the hidden wiki would be something cool and interesting so I googled it. Interesting but not cool.

This post, not necessarily the video, made me check it out. What a breath of fresh air

It seems like a lot of work maintaining healthy poly relationships. I don’t think I’d be able to manage it, though I have a few friends who apparently are very happy doing their thing

Dang I wish I knew that at the time. I had to run it many times before I was satisfied that my history was properly edited before deleting everything

I can’t speak to the article that you’ve posted several times due to the paywall, but I can speak to the language and the antagonistic attitude they actually used during the entire debacle. Placing explicit blame on third party apps like Apollo, Sync, Boost, etc.- that was the argument used. It doesn’t matter what the real reason was. They were publicly placing blame on small fish instead of the AI monster that was stealing all of their content and bandwidth

IIRC that was not the case. They very publicly blamed 3rd party apps, which was both disingenuous and not transparent.

That was extremely confusing to watch without context. What’s happening?

I wonder if there’s been a follow-up since this article was posted

I guess I’ll throw my hat in there. Here’s a song I wrote with my buds like… forever ago. It’s called Rocketship

This motherfucker trying to pull a Momonga

Chiming in that editing with proxies, while potentially cumbersome, is pretty standard. Feature films and TV shows are often edited in 720p for that exact reason. ProRes or h.264, depending on your needs and capabilities. Final renders are just a matter of turning the proxies off.

I dabbled in kdenlive for half a day while looking for something my nephew could use for a school project. Didn’t realize the lack of hardware acceleration until this thread. Still, it’s a great piece of software and I’m looking forward to watching it develop further

It really should be taken as way over the top, but with shit like this said all the time without an ounce of irony… It was impossible to tell

I went to their about page and realized I was in over my head.

Reporting on corruption, especially when fatal, needs to be repeated for as long as people are unaware.

db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com is one cool dude. Their fingerprints are all over Lemmy in an obviously much needed manner. I’m glad I joined their instance.

Yep my buddy at VMware was waiting to get laid off all year. Finally happened two weeks ago

Sync for Lemmy does as well. I’ve seen it go up to 1.5GB. I highly recommend running Cache Cleaner (FOSS) periodically.
