This will upset a lot of creators. I know they can’t just up and leave but I do with more video creators just uploaded their content to other platforms (peertube would be nice!) the same way musicians upload to every streaming service. At least offer viewers a choice!

This is interesting but oddly difficult to parse, ironically the writing style has LLM vibes with all the fluffy generic statements and overall lack of density.

Lucky Patcher can often remove the requirement but obviously you can’t update it.

Oh I meant like, an official github repo. I wouldn’t ever recommend getting an apk from some random site.

Your TV might have the Steam Link app meaning you could stream directly without needing the deck in the loop. If the TV is connected via Ethernet then latency would be even better.

I don’t have a good answer, I recently switched back to the Play Store. Sometimes apps you wouldn’t expect are open source and you can update via Obtanium so it doesn’t hurt to check.

I’m confused about some of these. For example everything you mentioned in the torrent agent (maintaining ratios, watching for new media, seeing what’s popular) are already settings in the *arr suite that uses significantly fewer resources, no?

there’s a home assistant front door agent that can make automations or report sensor state or trigger scenes or entities

This is all basic functionality of Home Assistant, yes? I’m confused about what is the agent is doing?

I’m exhausted from writing poetry all the time I want something that can do that for me.

What are the agents doing for you?

What does it do? I thought about trying this but I literally never have a need to generate text.

Oh sorry, sure yeah I wasn’t talking about careers. I was only speaking of volunteers specifically. Claude is cheap right now but when it becomes full price I don’t think most people doing video game decomps will want to pay for it.

Is that just a feeling? Because my feeling is that the foss movement is entering a golden age even when you take into consideration all of the slop coding getting posted

Sure yeah I guess if you want to consider a single video game community shutting down to be “widespread repercussions” you certainly have that right, but I don’t think we’ll be able to find common ground on this topic. Have a good one!

So I don’t disagree, but at the same time I also don’t see many people relying on these vibe-coded apps, or including them in crucial points within software stacks. For example if a vibe-coded Mario Kart decomp project gets orphaned it doesn’t really have widespread repercussions.

Linus is saying that using an LLM doesn’t absolve you of taking responsibility for what you publish.

I am extremely anti-LLM for basically everything but even I can see this moral panic for what it is. Sadly not the first time David Gerard (the author of this blog) has fallen into it.

Eh, I’m really not worried. The decomps are interesting as a proof of concept, but they really really aren’t very good, and once the VC funding runs out and the vibe coders have to invest actual money, you’ll see a big decrease in these decomps and vibe coded apps. The world of foss will largely return to the hands of the people who actually care about the quality of their code.

Honestly, what would be nice is for a community like this to serve as gatekeeper with high standards for decomp projects to meet. Sure 99% won’t make it in but who cares?

I know we’re in the Wild West days right now but eventually things will settle. If the foss community can find a way to make torrents organized safe and accessible they can do anything.

Is there a step by step tutorial for this you know of?

EDIT: Ah darn, it’s fake :(

Reminds me of this classic:

If NGINX proxy manager is a docker container on the same machine as your other services you can point it to http://172.17.0.1/ and then the port number. And then the domain can be duckdns or whatever you’re using without the http.
