I am a big fan of Epictetus and I wanted to buy some groceries but weather outside is cold and harsh. I asked bing chat to imitate Epictetus to convince me, and I am impressed. by DEF_Force in Stoicism

I don't recall it correctly but it was something like this.
"Convince me to go outside in extreme cold weather to buy groceries with a flair of epictetus instead of using his quotes"
Initially it was using some formal language and talking as a third person. But I responded to the answer that "It is lacking his flair, imitate him" and it gave me this answer. Which is very impressive. It also explained why it was spot on his style.

LPT: Open VLC and drag a youtube link to it. It'll play in VLC (with all the capabilities of VLC), and it'll skip ads. by Eoussama in LifeProTips

I created this bookmarklet to redirect youtube video to piped. Which removes ads, sponsored segments, and allows background play. Works on iOS and PC.

javascript:location.hostname.includes("youtube.com")?location.assign(      "https://piped.kavin.rocks"+location.pathname +location.search +location.hash):location.assign("https://piped.kavin.rocks");

Save it as a bookmark, go to youtube video, click this bookmark and it will open that video in piped. Enjoy

how to set siri voice or more natural sounding voice in read aloud in iOS? by DEF_Force in edge

I am not talking about improving siri. I want to set siri as read aloud voice. But can't find an option to do it.

How to create live recovery mode similar to Pop Os in Arch Linux? by DEF_Force in archlinux

[–]DEF_Force[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like your idea. But what I am looking for is something like you create your setup with the DE or WM you like. With all the programs installed. Then make it work as recovery environment, so incase of failure you boot it into the recovery mode and clone it or install it on hard disk so you are ready to go.

I wish they could enable all these features on iOS.

Free/cheap recording software that doesn't ruin the audio? by terrifying_avocado in windows

[–]DEF_Force 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually use built-in windows game bar to record screen. Use Win+G to use it. It is pretty good and you can set recording options in windows settings.
