Get a trailer for your kids. I've never tried a cargo bike, but a bike trailer is a nice way to haul kids.

(for context, i believe this would have played while you're trying to do that physics segment with the tractor, in homage to vincent sauce)

Instead of creating yet another project imo they should contribute to https://github.com/darlinghq/darling .

What a surprise, a far-right movements supported CEO that acts like a bully towards his employees and wants to embrace a technology linked to fascist ideas...

There is one item I'm struggling with when it comes to using 'ai' (is this a synonym for 'llm' or 'generative ai' these days?). You mentioned you used ai to 'form an opinion'. For myself this is a 'red flag' because in my opinion, if you can't formulate your opinion you don't have a opinion at all. But I am very hard on this topic and I personally consider this point open for debate (it is philosophical anyway). What I did like is the fact that you mentioned you used a program in the subcategory 'ai' to form a opinion. I still believe a human should be able to formulate his opinions by himself, but if you mention you used a tool to help yourself you are showing a 'fair-play' attitude. And I am aware that some people have opinions but have more problems expressing those opinions than others, so with the help of (software) tools there might be a possible win for everyone. Thanks again for a great video!

@lostinsignal@tilvids.com Move away from Proton! There's lots of good alternatives that are often better too! Not to mention, their CEO also happens to be a big GOP supporter + loves Trump, which combined with their LLM fanaticism (and honestly their attitude too, what the hell, calling your employees "losers" should not be allowed!), it's very bad.If you want email, mailbox.org, posteo (both German 🇩🇪), and Fastmail (Australian 🇦🇺) are awesome alternatives. Disroot (Dutch 🇳🇱) is decent if you want a free email service, it's oriented at activists, has a no logs policy, and, in order to prevent abuse and spam, they manually verify each signup. As for passwords, use KeePass stuff (ChiPass is a fork of KeePassXC and a bit better in my eyes, KeePassDX if you use Android, KeePassium if you use iOS, Syncthing to have the same passwords on all devices), for cloud storage, you should use Nextcloud (either a public instance or self-hosted!), and IVPN is a good alternative to Proton VPN (avoid Mullvad as they are supporting a racist Swedish party)

If anybody wants an alternative to Proton's services, I would highly recommend going with mailbox.org, posteo (German 🇩🇪), and Fastmail (Australian 🇦🇺) as an alternative to their email, the KeePass ecosystem in place of the password manager (KeePassXC or ChiPass for desktop, the latter has a stricter LLM policy + implemented Qt6 earlier I think, both support the same browser extension for autofill, KeePassDX for Android, KeePassium for iOS), if you need 2FA, Aegis for Android and Tofu for iOS are awesome and FOSS too. Ente Auth is decent if you want 2FA to sync between devices. And of course, another good VPN is IVPN (Mullvad's CEO is financing a racist party in Sweden, avoid them!), and for cloud storage you should just use Nextcloud (either a public instance, there's loads, or self-hosted)

Canceled Proton because enough is enough from that CEO. Moving to Tuta for mail and calendar (and soon drive).

I love it. Good or bad. Can't stop laughing. :))))

cool video nick!

@denny If you want a good alternative, I would recommend for drive, Nextcloud (can be self-hosted or you can use a public instance), for passwords, the KeePass ecosystem (Chipass is a fork of KeePassXC with a stronger LLM policy + I think they implemented Qt6 earlier, and it's also compatible with the same browser extension! On Android, you have KeePassDX, while on iOS, you have KeePassium), for VPN, IVPN is awesome (Mullvad's CEO is financing a racist party in Sweden, avoid them too)As for mail, the big one, you have LOTS of good alternatives. Tuta is decent, but I prefer more open IMAP compatible services since it means you have lots of email clients to choose from (Thunderbird, Geary, etc.), like mailbox.org, posteo (both German), and Fastmail (Australian). Mozilla has recently started rolling out "Thundermail Pro" which seems pretty cool (still supports standard protocols, not Thunderbird exclusive!)Avoid having all your eggs in one basket, otherwise you just get another Google or Microsoft!

It's very cool that there are so many good budget lenses, makes it a lot easier to get into photography for newbies :D

Who really cares how much Steam takes to load? 🤔

Vibe coded... Nah.

Awesome! Legitimately a big leap for gaming on Linux!

I have to say that in my experience Blackmagic did a great job with the Resolve installation. Everything went well on Zorin OS the first time i installed it.

@gbryant moment I saw that video I knew it was going for clicks. I usually enjoy their videos but they are definitely aim for entertainment, not accuracy.Whenever I suggest Linux as platform for creatives, I caveat with asset flow limitations and software change. As long as people are aware and ready to try...it is possible.

@blender This was an interesting video - I had no idea lakes could have tilt :) - the plugin which converts a node tree to python looks quite useful. There's a few important details in this video which I hope the blender team takes to heart:1) They had to add code to restart blender when it crashes - this mirrors my experience as well, I found it getting less and less stable with every release.I wish blender would just slow way way way down, stop adding features for a while, and only focus on tech-debt and bugfixes.2) They commented the python docs were poor and speculated it gets little use - That's not quite true, blender python gets a lot of use - but more use within the plugin ecosystem, and less so these days with big projects like this. - I have tried using blender python in the past for large projects and got burned by the fact that it's very much a moving target. - Breaking changes between major versions can completely cripple a large complex project like this, and that's rather disheartening. Keeping up with breaking changes is exhausting in something like this, especially when you've got a small team. This again is an argument for blender to slow the heck down, document things properly, be more considerate when functions are deprecated. It should be avoided, and when it happens it should be well announced and documented.(also please keep llm slop away from the project, it will only amplify these issues)

@blender I've heard of the movie, now I need to watch :D

@blender Man, this looks awesome! It will be extra useful in game dev. Great editing, too.

Other good reasons (in a city): A job that frequently requires to haul a lot of cargo (like, more than what fits in the cargo bike, or the equivalent of two suitcases (for public transit)), a job at very odd hours (if cycling there isn't an option), a disability for which transit or cycling isn't accessible. I think part of the problem why people have "bad reasons" for owning a car is just our general capitalist culture. If you need a thing sometimes, or even might need it sometimes... you gotta own it. Or at least that seems to be the mentality. Instead of borrowing/renting. Greetings from Germany. In most places here you still need a car realistically. Sure, you could wait for that bus that comes every 2hrs to do groceries... But maybe you also have a life. Way more viable in cities (I don't own a car). But even here, if you get a bit just a bit further out public transit becomes way more sparse. Nvm getting anywhere on a Sunday morning or for a night shift. And cycling... uhhh, really depends on the area. But also, Germany has a massive car culture (think of all the car companies from here). Even if people don't need a car, they often still have one. It's just "normal", and potentially a status symbol. Anyone who doesn't own a car (let along doesn't have a license) is seen as weird by a lot of people. (And imo, peer pressure or showing off is one of the worst reasons to own a car lol)Even owning a car can be a problem, cause you need to park it somewhere. That's a lot of space just for storing some metal. Might be fine if you have a garage built under your house, so there's not a lot of extra space wasted. (Although that garage could be an extra room, or even a full small apartment... that's a lotta energy that went into building those walls, just to store some metal.) Here a lot of the older buildings don't have garages, street parking is legal but often full. So cars are blocking the side walks, bike paths, and often even the streets (which blocks emergency vehicles). Interesting video, thank you! Definitely agree that less cars, and less car use, is always an improvement. Perfection is the enemy of good and all that :)
