shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit

They made it crap a long time ago. The app takes forever to connect and view the camera. Really feels like abandonware, except for the ads to push you to buy more of their cameras or subscribe to their service. I’ve just cancelled my subscription. Moved to Tapo cameras, where the app connects nearly instantly… for now.

Audiobookshelf also finds, manages, streams podcasts. After Google killed off Google Podcasts, ABS has been an even better replacement in my experience.

I used to Google for help, but the thing about Google is you have to know the correct technical terms, but when learning Linux, there are many unknown unknowns. And then you have to trawl through am the answers.

Now, any time I enter a command and get errors, or if I don’t understand something in the logs, I’ll copy paste it into perplexity.ai - if necessary, it’ll ask for clarification. But mostly, it’ll suggest various causes and solutions, with explanation.

This is more like anti-vaxxers scamming themselves and others, and the so-called scammers are just providing the required service.

Pinned comment on original article says:

Didn’t see it mentioned in the article, but per the linked FAQ it says the alpha AI applies to:

In countries with the preferred language set to English.

Excluding Canada, the UK (United Kingdom), and countries within the EEA (European Economic Area).

Dragon/Nuance abandoned Swype keyboard. All I want for Christmas is that they open source Swype.

Their title says “flat display”, yet further down the article, they write:

… the display is almost flat. The glass panel has a very subtle curve on the side edges (possibly from 2.5D curved glass)…

So, not flat then.

Fuck curved edges on Samsung phones, they’re an arse for screen protector edges wanting to lift up when that wind blows the wrong way.

Yep, all up to date. UBO gives me the option to proceed (= show) the dodgy ads. Maybe something to do with my settings that it doesn’t block those outright. It’s a useful option for when I’m using cashback sites that I can temporarily grant tracking links.

Not quite a screen shot, but the text:

uBlock filters – Badware risks

The warnings pop up and hitting proceed shows scammy fake virus scans and such. To make it clear, it’s not luckypatchers itself, but the dodgy full screen ads on load.

Hopefully you’re right that it’s AB testing, though not sure how they’d gauge your approval/disapproval of colour scheme.

Going back to what I said earlier after further use - better contrast for the suggested route in daytime navigation, however, the nighttime colour scheme has worse contrast than before.

Ublock Origin kicks up repeated warnings for this.

Adguard lifetime licence - install adguard on your phone, done.

Or just configure your phone’s DNS setting to use adguard DNS, or other free adblocking DNS.

When navigating, there’s now better contrast for the route.

This is a good example of hallucination, both by the AI and by OP. The first and third word of each line is a synonym for average.

I used to use Waze, but got tired of it sending me through back streets and turns to save only a minute - problem was, those slower back streets and waiting at junctions ended up taking longer.

Google Maps on the other hand will offer more sane routes, and only send me down back streets where the saving is more than say 4 or 5minutes.

Also, Waze made my phone HOT!

Everyone gets 100% in homework, but just wait until the exams.

Why not stay with your existing hosts? Does the latency make that much difference for your use?

People on the internet downvoting without fact checking first - business as usual then!
