Is there an artist so horrible that no matter how hard you try that you cannot separate their art from them?

Similar to the recent question about artists where you can successfully separate them from their art. Are there any artists who did something so horrible, so despicable, that it has instantly invalidated all art that they have had any part in?

bela,

I mean I can’t and won’t watch any Tom Cruise aka a bunch of ‘classics’, for a similar reason.

bela,

Why is this getting downvoted?

bela,

Sorry fellas but finding Esteemed Award Winning Character Actress Margot Robbie attractive is about the gayest thing you can do.

According to this you can copy stuff onto it. I assume you’ve tried to see if you can copy off? If not, then there is probably no way to extract the audio, short of recording it as it plays.

I was only able to find a couple episodes online. One on someone’s google drive and a few in the wayback machine, all from this thread

edit: if playapod has an option to store files on an sd card, that’s usually stored unencrypted. (on android anyway…)

edit: wait iphones don’t even have sd card slots, right? lol

bela,

I don’t open source because the open source idea values mainly practical advantage and does not campaign for principles.

When we call software “free,” we mean that it respects the users’ essential freedoms: the freedom to run it, to study and change it, and to redistribute copies with or without changes. This is a matter of freedom, not price, so think of “free speech,” not “free beer.”

These freedoms are vitally important. They are essential, not just for the individual users’ sake, but for society as a whole because they promote social solidarity—that is, sharing and cooperation. They become even more important as our culture and life activities are increasingly digitized. In a world of digital sounds, images, and words, free software becomes increasingly essential for freedom in general.

Tens of millions of people around the world now use free software; the public schools of some regions of India and Spain now teach all students to use the free GNU/Linux operating system. Most of these users, however, have never heard of the ethical reasons for which we developed this system and built the free software community, because nowadays this system and community are more often spoken of as “open source,” attributing them to a different philosophy in which these freedoms are hardly mentioned.

Some of the supporters of open source considered the term a “marketing campaign for free software,” which would appeal to business executives by highlighting the software’s practical benefits, while not raising issues of right and wrong that they might not like to hear. Other supporters flatly rejected the free software movement’s ethical and social values. Whichever their views, when campaigning for open source, they neither cited nor advocated those values. The term “open source” quickly became associated with ideas and arguments based only on practical values, such as making or having powerful, reliable software. Most of the supporters of open source have come to it since then, and they make the same association. Most discussion of “open source” pays no attention to right and wrong, only to popularity and success; here’s a typical example. A minority of supporters of open source do nowadays say freedom is part of the issue, but they are not very visible among the many that don’t.

The two now describe almost the same category of software, but they stand for views based on fundamentally different values. For the free software movement, free software is an ethical imperative, essential respect for the users’ freedom. By contrast, the philosophy of open source considers issues in terms of how to make software “better”—in a practical sense only. It says that nonfree software is an inferior solution to the practical problem at hand.

bela,

I was about to open an issue about the broken hungarian layout but it turns out it’s already fixed, f-droid is just slow to update. The izzyondroid version works great!

I need to record over some Hi8 tapes; 5 tapes, ~2½ hours each. I can record audio and video directly. What should I put on there?

I'm getting rid of an old Hi8 camcorder and figured I'd throw in the tapes with it, but I want to wipe the contents of the tapes before I do. I don't have a huge magnet or anything I can use to quickly erase the tapes, so the only option is to record over them using the camcorder. Instead of being boring and just muting it and...

bela,

They want to put something more interesting on it. An easter egg for anyone who might play the tape.

bela,

too many of them…

bela,

I just spent a bit too much time making this (it was fun), so don’t even tell me if you’re not going to use it.

You can open up a desired book’s page, start this first script in the console, and then scroll through the book:


<span style="color:#323232;">let imgs = new Set();
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">function cheese() {    
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  for(let img of document.getElementsByTagName("img")) {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    if(img.parentElement.parentElement.className == "pageImageDisplay") imgs.add(img.attributes["src"].value);
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  }
</span><span style="color:#323232;">}
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">setInterval(cheese, 5);
</span>

And once you’re done you may run this script to download each image:


<span style="color:#323232;">function toDataURL(url) {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  return fetch(url).then((response) => {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    return response.blob();
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  }).then(blob => {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    return URL.createObjectURL(blob);
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  });
</span><span style="color:#323232;">}
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">async function asd() {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  for(let img of imgs) {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    const a = document.createElement("a");
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    a.href = await toDataURL(img);
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    let name;
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    for(let thing of img.split("&amp;")) {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">      if(thing.startsWith("pg=")) {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        name = thing.split("=")[1];
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        console.log(name);
</span><span style="color:#323232;">        break;
</span><span style="color:#323232;">      }
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    }
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    a.download = name;
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    document.body.appendChild(a);
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    a.click();
</span><span style="color:#323232;">    document.body.removeChild(a);
</span><span style="color:#323232;">  }
</span><span style="color:#323232;">}
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">asd();
</span>

Alternatively you may simply run something like this to get the links:


<span style="color:#323232;">for(let img of imgs) {
</span><span style="color:#323232;">	console.log(img)
</span><span style="color:#323232;">}
</span>

There’s stuff you can tweak of course if it don’t quite work for you. Worked fine on me tests.

If you notice a page missing, you should be able to just scroll back to it and then download again to get everything. The first script just keeps collecting pages till you refresh the site. Which also means you should refresh once you are done downloading, as it eats CPU for breakfast.

Oh and NEVER RUN ANY JAVASCRIPT CODE SOMEONE ON THE INTERNET TELLS YOU TO RUN

FiniteLooper, to vivaldi_browser

With Chrome's new privacy concerns, I really want to stop using it. However I love the Chrome developer tools and overall experience better than Firefox. I just want to de-google it.

There are options! I've just started using @vivaldi_browser and so far I really like it!

Try it out here: https://vivaldi.com/

bela,

Kinda weird to post an “ad” about vivaldi in the vivaldi community, innit?

bela,

The image was first used on their site in another article in 2020.

Tineye turns up a lot of usages.

The original seems to be from shutterstock, which also has an alternate angle available. The artist describes it as “Google Chrome homepage on computer screen”.

In conclusion: idk if that’s firefox.

bela,

You forgot to mention spending 20 years alone in a cell after murdering his only cell mate. But it’s okay, so did he.

bela,

I don’t think I’m alone in saying this: uhh, what?

bela,

He could have been sitting in the margaritaville dining car the entire ride!

bela,

I watched most of Lower Decks before starting TNG so I’m catching the easter eggs the other way around

bela,

Yes, I did say 15 were enough to keep my respect. Do you really want to just keep it, or gain more with honor?

    bela,

    Possibly privacy reasons? So it doesn’t load external images unless you specifically ask it to?

    bela,

    I watched this ep a couple days back and I couldn’t for a second remember her name, much less figure out how it would be spelled. Lal sounds about right.

    bela,

    I installed Mint as dual boot over a year ago and the only reason I ever booted back was one game that didn’t run quite well enough. Of course depending on your wants and needs it may vary, but you won’t know until you give it a shot.

    bela,

    bepis

    bela,

    Dude just stop complaining and flash LibreDog on it. It’s not that hard.

    bela,

    The exact question I clicked on this community for.

    I think I feel … safe here?
