The government has been secretly tracking everyone's farts since 1998. The next one you release will trigger your official ranking on the Global Flatulence Leaderboard. visible to everyone.

Lol that's what I get for no coffee today. I'll keep it up for a laugh.

Yeah gotta love that report that takes an exorbitant amount of time to make...which is no longer used/only used for a tiny bit each year.

At work, we have a system that has not been updated in many MANY years. Its essential, but because of budget constraints, we cannot update it. Also the new system is SaaS and is 10x (no joke) expensive.

We had around 10 people entering the same documents into the system in a typical form. Its a variation on three different criteria. They spent 40 hours a day just doing this work...

I got tired of having to pull info out of the system and automated it away with Selenium. When my manager saw what it could do, he asked if the document side of things could be done the same way. I created a prototype and boom, solution complete. It been stable for close to a year now. The 10 people now have new responsibilities (most making more $$ from what I hear).

But like the picture above, its a Jank solution. It literally just runs 24x7 throwing things from one system into another system, then pulls the info into another system. And you can see the screen running. But it does work...so im going to call it a success(?)

Such a good piece of software.

Discoverability is one of the bigger issues. In YouTube there is a huge push to be more discoverable to the algorithm and to keep users on the platform. In peertube there's no such pressure...for better or worse.

Some peertube instances do, most do not. Some have manual processes, some don't.

Ex: https://makertube.net/signup

And no one is stopping anyone from creating their own server. Yunohost even makes it a one click solution.

It's just like Lemmy/fediverse stuff. Each instance provider has their own rules. And that's ok

I've seen their code and how they operate. Seems legit to me but I'm a bit biased.

Yep no reason to scale until you need to scale.

Everyone wants it to be YouTube. With ads and algorithms and....

Just let it be peertube. It works now.

I have a server with less than 100gb that's running it for a year so far. No issues and even has a channel with 100 or so subscribers (literally my dog).

It's p2p capabilities make it pretty easy to distribute videos. And the server admins have the ability to toggle if they want to host other videos from other instances or not. They even have the ability to host specific individual videos if they want to support certain creators. Its a very intelligent system.

If anyone wants to take a look, we have a couple different communities/channels/videos over on !peertube@lemmy.world

Yep 🐕

In fact dogs in many ways are better than people for friendship. If only they lived longer. We get blessed by their presence only for so long.

If you go to coffee shops, you can literally see the chatgpt prompt in most browsers where people are doing work.

Are there computers in heaven/hell?

Have you thought of perhaps hosting your own? If you are concerned about it.

Yunohost has a pretty easy install of peertube. It works pretty well and you can even make videos private for your own family uses if need arises. Gl!

Makertube is a good one. It has a lot of family friendly content as well.

Nice!

Such a good vibe game.

Did you have the game on a higher difficulty? I didnt have that experience, but I put it on one of the higher difficulties initially. I forget which but I found that more fun.

Its fair though, it wont be for everyone. Kinda like TemTem. I wanted to like TemTem, but the puzzles really sucked. So much so that I stopped playing the game halfway through.

The Rom hacks like pokemon unbound are wildly successful, so yeah a hifi graphic remake would sell like crazy.

If you would like to see something just like it, https://store.steampowered.com/app/1218210/Coromon/ scratches that itch.
