Idk bout ur whole argument of russian propaganda but
“Y’all are too stupid to understand first past the post or the spoiler effect or the way the two party system means you have to vote for the lesser of two evils or you are explicitly condoning the greater evil.”
Is both seemingly valid and entirely a crock of shit that will result in ratcheting towards fascism every single time.
Argue how its more important then, i’d like to hear it
Use the transcript and skip/read through
It’s on every youtube video at the bottom of the description!
Yt-dlp all those work, though you may need log in (cookie) for ‘adult’ content
But i dl with subtitles every time ‘–write-auto-subs’ or ‘–write-subs en’ or ‘all’, also got ‘–convert-subs srt’ yt-dlp the goat
Hol’ up
Wait a minute
Kill that fash
Put a brick in it
Just because they avoid it doesn’t mean that the express purpose of a CEO isn’t to take that fall…
That’s the entire point of the role and excuse for the compensation, is it not?
That is not furry. Not even similar
Nah, distinguish yourself and I’ll give you grace.
I literally only said that because after establishing that my first reaction to noticing an American is ‘fuck them’ but realised that doesn’t hold because there are plenty of good Americans.
You guys are just way too willing to put up with evil nonsense despite being ‘free’ and you having legal guns?
I’d be far more forgiving if every default American didn’t have the most rancid vibes. As they speak I can ease up if what comes out isn’t atrocious.
I’m just describing that Americans are the pariah now I guess… You always treat other countries as fully responsible for their leaders despite you guys having far more claim of individual liberty and armory to brandish, but wishing we would treat you all as powerless?
Right but is that ‘horse shoe theory’ because it just sounds like there are multiple reasons to support things.
Horse shoe theory is nonsense.
I dislike NATO since its a US protection racket and I dislike EU because they’re forcing chat control and cowtowing to the US.
I dont want the ‘west to fall’, I want to be free and sovereign from the US’ war machine.
I don’t believe we’ll naturally rise above if things collapse, but I do believe we’ll be dead before too long if the US continues forward with its acts.
Being pincered by Russia on the east and the US on the west is a pretty terrifying concept - if only China would save us.
Your approval ratings dont fix things, you are all complacent until you distinguish yourselves, sorry.
Well technically Reddits API is open to third party clients, it just became prohibitively expensive around the exodus…
Does the new ruling include provisions for where the API has been made functionally unusable? It definitely could, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they missed that.
Then let them, we need to stop bending the rules for US companies, we don’t need them.
That does sound like a decent idea, that way the content being mirrored would be only that that genuine users accessed.
Perhaps immediately mirroring the content as the browser itself reads it, preventing additional requests that could be flagged.
Only issues are:
Though this does answer some issues and have some clear use cases.
Cheers for the suggestion!
Well yeah, it’s not like I gave the entire context.
The conversation started about how Ghislaine Maxwell is back moderating on Reddit.
Posted as a reply because this will certainly upset many but…
On the instance wars:
I constantly see nonsense about the horrors of the ‘.ML’ instance, and ‘hexbear’, primarily from ‘Lemmy.world’ users, but I have never once actually come across these horrors.
Hexbear is just a troll instance, ala ‘cumtown’.
To an outside observer, ‘.world’ users seem to be US propagandists intent on wrecking the platform. “Tankies this, cowbee that”, when I’ve never seen a cowbee post that wasn’t entirely reasonable.
And the vast majority of ‘tankies’ are just people who criticise the US rightfully while not sharing the same breathe to criticize China. Ngl, fuck Russia, the US and Russia are the greatest evils. China is not anywhere near the same level. You can praise elements of a foreign state without being a ‘tankie’.
It’s the same thought terminating cliche cult bullshit that all right wingers do. And it seems to come from Americans being upset their myopic views aren’t babied by people who literally specifically went to an instance to avoid them?
Idk I’m not a user of any of the three, but I’ve only ever had an issue with lemmy.world users in the past, as a UK citizen who is far from a tankie.
After trying to convert a friend who heavily uses reddit, multiple times, I recommended him again the other day to leave the hellsite (reddit).
I didn’t recommend Lemmy but have a while back.
He himself specifically brought up that he ‘didn’t vibe with Lemmy as much as reddit’ and that he believes he would ‘miss stories he would otherwise have liked to see’ by switching to Lemmy.
Reddit has kept him more up to date than not over the past year - he believes had he not been using reddit he wouldn’t have found out about [specific events in iran] as early as he did.
The other main pain point I’ve encountered is the small and niche community problem, which I’m sure we are all aware of - certain information feels like it can only be found on such small subreddits.
Therefore I have two suggestions:
This would struggle due to reddit API and compute power requirements but the subreddits on request and a specific instance for these posts would eliminate the bot spam problem from earlier attempts at the same thing.
The other suggestion would be:
Finally, my biggest gripe with my Lemmy use is the constant instance wars.
I have had my comments removed for being rightfully critical of Israel by lemmy.world mods. They appear intent on recreating the problems of reddit here.
No, nonsense.
The trump admin wants to enact their plan. This bullshit about ‘giving them a reason’ is idiotic.
They are searching for and will find their own reasons, they’re calling this innocent mother of three ‘radicalised by the left’.
You are arguing for a lack of resistance.
You are right there will be escalation, but the escalation is coming regardless.
How many more innocent people have to be brutally murdered before enough is enough?
Or what do you suggest is done otherwise?
Personally I’m an advocate for burning their homes while they are out terrorising.
What a frail cop out
Okay buddy. You’re also in the same pot, there is no escape.
I would love to have a real rational discussion with you, but you’re incapable of challenging your own preconcieved notions.
I am fully aware of the fire, we’re all locked in to the pot, you’re deciding to sink in and be steadily cooked by the water rather than try to catch a raft and escape.
That’s fine, believe you’re safer for it if you want, what do you think the correct course of action is?
Continue with liberal norms and believe you’re doing ‘good’ because you avoid AI?
The pot has been boiling on a higher and higher flame for years, and will continue to boil - LLM cultism just shirks responsibility and accountability, which already doesn’t come to fruition anyway.
I hate AI cultists and Peter Thiel more than I could ever hate you. I wonder if I hate them more than you do.
Aye yeah that’s fair, in that case i’d recommend PeaZip, it’s what I use on my CachyOS setup since 7zip is just cli on Unix. PeaZip has a nice file manager UI.
In terms of yt-dlp it really depends how you installed it…
Assuming you’re in the folder where yt-dlp is:
1. Make it executable
chmod +x yt-dlp
2. Run it directly from the current folder
./yt-dlp --version
If that works, then the binary is fine and it’s just a PATH thing.
I’d recommend just installing it through Homebrew personally, it will sort out the PATH for you automatically.
install Homebrew if you don’t have it (from brew.sh)
then:
brew install yt-dlp
yt-dlp --version
Otherwise if you want to make the binary work (if you already have the file or want to download it manually)
Open the folder in terminal and then
move it somewhere on PATH
sudo mv yt-dlp /usr/local/bin/yt-dlp
make sure it’s executable
sudo chmod a+rx /usr/local/bin/yt-dlp
Now whichever way you choose, you should be able to just do:
yt-dlp https://example.com/video --write-auto-subs
Along with whatever other commands you want to use!
