I’m sure if you just AI harder things will improve.

I enjoyed it up to the end where it was revealed it’s connected to another game series that I do not care for. That immediately killed my entire emotional investment in the game.

Nice! I’ll update my container and give it a go.

Hmmm, an RPi with a camera might well work. The problem there is more the amount of work I’d need to do - I haven’t got that kind of time right now.

An honest answer that it’s not currently easily doable is in and of itself useful.

This is a “nice to have”. I figured I’d ask preemptively so that I didn’t go down a blind alley. Thanks!

I would be buying. The cam I borrowed wouldn’t fit the setup I want, I just mentioned it because I want that functionality but without the hassle of pulling the SD card.

So far it doesn’t sound like what I want exists, unfortunately.

That essentially boils down to “build your own solution”, which under my current circumstances amounts to “don’t do it”. Not that I lack the skill or will but the spare time and energy I have is used on my baby daughter. I can’t justify rabbit holing on something like this.

It’s why I created this thread - to see if there’s a software and hardware combo that solves this with minimal additional work.

WiFi would be easily sufficient. We’re talking a distance of 10m from my router, tops.

I borrowed a camera - it’s not the one I would be using for this.

That’s why I’m asking. I haven’t bought anything yet and don’t want to get the wrong thing.

That would be possible, yep.

If it helps kill the damn thing, excellent.

Yeah, that’s the problem I have - it’s something I end up doing on an awful lot of photos. I need that tool.

Krita is missing one feature that I rely on often - setting the white point in the levels tool.

I had a dev add a load of unit tests that mocked values and then tested for the mocked values. I mean… They passed…

Is this why so many of these fuckheads are keen on LLMs? They’re great at vomiting out reams of code.

They took out H264 hardware support?

Ooh, that’s a useful thing to know about! Thanks!

You’re getting ragged on but I would very much prefer an approach with these things that used some sort of modular system.

I’m imagining the service would have the option for “address for communication bridge” and it’d pass messages to it using JSON or something. The communication bridge would then decide which medium that would go through (email, SMS, smoke signals, whatever the owner configures).

As far as the service is concerned messages come and go (or just go) and how that side of things works isn’t its problem. It’d also mean that one could configure fallback messaging mediums and use dummy ones for if one doesn’t want anything like that (much like the “emails print to the console” debug tool Django has).

I don’t know what’s worth tagging and what isn’t. I don’t know which tags are popular and so have followers vs. which ones aren’t.

The information exists but isn’t presented anywhere convenient.

If I have to do homework before posting a picture I’m massively more inclined not to bother, which isn’t particularly good for the Fediverse.

I would love something that could give me suggestions for relevant and popular hashtags for my content.

I use Lawnchair for that.
