Good luck! I hope it all works out for ya 🙂
I wouldn't make such a prediction as there are many possibilities and people like hanging onto things. One possible outcome could be the introduction of UBI, which could allow people only pursue the jobs or activities the want. That could be upskilling to become a research, becoming a race car driver, or a streamer, starting a company using AI, traveling the world, helping out the elderly, and so much more. There would still be production and consumption with popular products making some companies richer than others, but it could lead to a happier populace within a capitalistic system.
Of course there are dystopian scenarios like cleansing of the unemployed, remigration of the homeless, forced labor, and so much more that could keep the capitalistic system alive.
You can use transmission just for creating the torrent. You don't have to use the actual client. If qbittorrent is your client, it's possible to add the torrents to the list at the same time with
sh
for folder in * ; do
transmission-create -o "$folder.torrent" "$folder"
qbittorrent --save-path="$folder" "$folder.torrent"
done
Then you create the torrent and start seeding it immediately. If you've already created the torrent files
sh
for torrentFile in **/*.torrent ; do
folderName="$(basename -s .torrent "$torrentFile")"
folderParent="$(dirname "$torrentFile")"
folderPath="$folderName/$folderParent"
qbittorent --save-path="$folderPath" "$torrentFile"
done
Depending on the setup, you could also just sym link the folder into qbittorrent's download directory and copy your torrents into a folder that qbittorrent listens to. There are many ways to skin the cat. Check out the command line parameters for your torrent client.
Alright, but what is your point?
Hmm, creating torrents isn't that hard.
sh
for folder in * ; do
transmission-create -o "$folder.torrent" "$folder"
done
You can add a tracker by adding the --tracker "$trackerUrl" option. There isn't much more scripting involved, AFAIK, unless you want to upload them to the tracker too. But if you join the DHT and share the magnet links somewhere, you should be done. Or is there more to the process I'm missing?
Hmmm, is your goal to share each season folder separately? Is that why you would need scripting?
Or are you looking to share everything at once without worrying about creating individual torrents? If this is what you're looking for, then maybe Retroshare is what you're looking for? I don't know if stuff using eDonkey, Gnutella, or Kademlia are still around, but retroshare has file-sharing similar to those where you point the client at a folder and it just shares the entire thing.
IPFS would've been great for this, but they honestly screwed the pooch on that (it hogs resources, doesn't have good clients, and doesn't have a bridge to torrents or other networks i.e you can't go "oh, I have a torrent file, let me see if the files for this are on IPFS and download them from there").
Adapt or die. Societies that do not adapt to these changes will not have a good time. It's easy to ignore workers and just say "well, you're replaced, now fuck off". If the government doesn't take care of them and keep them happy, it could easily have negative consequences for the government.
Imagine if 30% of the workforce were fired within 5 years and couldn't get a job because AI did everything. Would 30% of the population just be happy going from something to homeless? How would the country absorb such a change? Governments can keep looking at the shiny money companies pay them to look the other way, but just because they ignore to see things doesn't mean they aren't happening. Either they are forward thinking and prepare or they will find themselves up a creek.
As an example: a company starts a free tier offering with no promises. It can sustain that because there are enough free users that convert into paying users - enough to sustain the free tier. But times change and the cost of free tier users surpasses that of paying users. Should the company continue providing the same level of service for free tier users?
Also, what other term than entitlement would you use for somebody gets something for free, is not promised that it will stay free forever, the free offering is cancelled or limited, and the user starts complaining?

I think it's a good attempt, but I'm not sure how it can be enforced. It would also need to be applicable to different jurisdictions. The project maintainer would have to know that somebody requesting a feature, commenting or participating in discussions is doing so in the name of the company 🤔
Thank you for sharing this. It's food for thought.
Walk us through the steps you're taking. I'm curious how many there are and why you think there have to be that many.
Is this dude complaining that an offering he pays absolutely nothing for is reducing how much free stuff they give out? Seems quite entitled... like the people demanding opensource devs implement something and never contributing back.
We should let these twits enjoy their shit on twitter. The AI hype is just like the crypto hype, it'll fade.
The name vibe coding sounds like a drunk evening with friends getting an MVP off the ground, but nothing more.
I have to stop clicking on the phoronix comment section. It's like a mini Twitter.
Still, Ubuntu should also ditch snap instead of hanging onto it just because they wrote it. It's the reason I don't recommend Ubuntu to friends anymore.
Sshfs should work with a local IDE like CLion from Jetbrains (although that's pay to use, it's the best C++ IDE I know of).
Out of curiosity, what's wrong with qtcreator in VNC viewer? Qtcreator should provide code completion, going to definitions, expanding macros, and so on.
A few questions:
- why do you have to SSH into a remote box?
- do you know how the VM was created? can you recreate the dependencies?
- which OS are you on?
- you mention qtcreator - do you have remote desktop session?
I ask these questions because my preliminary solutions without knowing all the details would be
- recreate the VM locally, install the tools you need
- mount the project on your machine with sshfs, use the tools you require locally
- use the VM as a proxy if you're using it to access an internal git to clone the repo to your local machine and use local tools there
- create a remote desktop session and forward it locally either via ssh x11 forwarding or connect to it via some RDP client like remmina, krdc, or whatever your OS uses
qtcreator has code completion btw, so you can use it for your development tasks.
Google takes 30% of your payments to provide you this security 👌
There's a chance google has to divest from Chrome, but we won't know until September at the earliest. The process the DOJ brought against it is in progress. Binding YouTube to chrome now might jot be a smart move if google loses the process.
There is a good chance in my mind that google will win against the Department Of Justice simply because of the current administration in the US.
Let's say there's a group of people in your hometown who like dogs. They will talk about dog thing this, dog thing that, probably something local. Now you travel to another town and they too have a group that likes dogs. They will talk about dog things too, but probably it'll be different dog things that are also specific to their location.
You have the option to join both dog communities without physically traveling from one town to another. You can even choose not to join a dog group in another town that only like to talk about dog fighting for example.
There is no "tech savvy" required here. You signed up in a town that has communities there, you can see communities from other towns, and you can choose to join them all, some, or none. It's up to you.
C++ might not be as memory-safe as Rust, but let’s not pretend a Rust code base wouldn’t be riddled with raw pointers.
I'm curious. Why do you believe the last statement to be true?
Had the same experience with chromium. Can't remember what I was trying to do but it involved accessing hardware (GPU or something) and it just didn't work. That was until I found out apt install chromium installed a goddamn snap package. I felt betrayed and lied to.
Canonical does great things, but that is definitely not one of them.
