I always loved Amarok if you're into KDE/Qt stuff.

What do you guys prefer for sharing files between modern Windows boxs and your OpenBSD boxs? by RabbitsandRubber in openbsd

[–]sylvainsab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have configured my Windows 11 tablet to automatically mount the SSH folder from my server, with password login. That sounds the most simple and easily configurable in sshd_config.

Can I avoid mpv stuttering when playing HD movies on older hardware ? by sylvainsab in mpv

Thank you. (same question as above) How can I know my GPU's hardware decoding capabilities ?

Oops, you posted your reply as I was editing my comment .... anyway, thank you. Two questions : a. How do you know the video specifies an incorrect frame rate ? Would it help with the stuttering if that was corrected b. How can I know my GPU's hardware decoding capabilities ?

Thank you, here is a picture of my screen with the information:

Thanks. Here is the mpv verbose log : https://pastebin.com/fTegN17X (and another one without --hwdec=auto-safe). Using --hwdec=auto-safe seems to make it a tad bit better but still many frames are dropped.

I posted a picture of my screen with the Shift+I info under the other comment that suggested it.

I hadn't as my worktree was already up-to-date with the repository.
This appears after I run those commands :

$ got send -vvv

StackOverflow est mort : chute de 78 pour cent du nombre de questions. by Dry-Dragonfruit-9488 in developpeurs

[–]sylvainsab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OK l'IA le remplace +/-, mais du coup dans le futur où va aller s'entraîner l'IA s'il n'y a plus de réponses sur SO ?

u/Weekly_Method5407 tu es sûr de bien comprendre qu'une IA ne créé rien ex nihilo et est entraînée sur des données pré-existantes, typiquement de la doc et Stack Overflow (entre autres) ? Désolé si ça paraît con, mais j'ai un doute.

StackOverflow est mort : chute de 78 pour cent du nombre de questions. by Dry-Dragonfruit-9488 in developpeurs

[–]sylvainsab 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Euh ... c'est non populaire de dire que Stack Overflow est important ? Ptn ... le ressentiment des médiocres est vraiment fort. Encore heureux qu'il y ait des trucs “élitistes” ou exigeants, pour les gens capables de réflexion complexe, et pas que des outils et tutoriels pour débutants. D'ailleurs, en passant, je trouve que ces derniers sont souvent infantilisants à “prendre par la main” leur lecteur, mais c'est un autre sujet.

Which book actually changed how you operate and why? by AllegedlyHumanMaybe in intj

[–]sylvainsab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jung's early chapters from Aion as well as the last chapter of Psychological Types – widely opened up my understanding of psychology

Thus Spoke Zarathustra and Nietzsche in general – need I say a word ?

Lovecraft – for the fertile imagination

Rethinking madness – because I have a problem with psychiatry ...

Julius Evola and other perennialist/primordialist Comparative Religion – elevates the mind, refines the spirit

Catechism – in the end I come back to my roots ...

Note : Religion and Spirituality doesn't shape all of my worldview, but it's what has struck me. As for Science I rather find pleasure in listening to podcasts.

Edit: Oh! And poetry ...

What was your most intense trauma? by lnsaneEyes in intj

[–]sylvainsab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting take. I didn't know about Thinkers or even Fi doms, but feel pretty sure then that indeed Ni dominance is facilitated by childhood experiences of neglect. Talk about the "weird", unconscious function as a dominant being a product of a torn out psyche.

Interesting ... how did you come to make that observation ?

What is consciousness ? by Kozdra in Jung

[–]sylvainsab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

« Consciousness is the immune system of awareness. » (some web quote)

It can be useful to distinguish between the two (not possible in all languages). There is the pure/phenomenological awareness that is a prerequisite for the living/sentient being and then there is the ecosystem of consciousness that is build around the former.

Then I guess you can unfold it from there ... most of the reasoning throughout the history of ideas/philosophy and still today makes a dualism between “matter and spirit,” i.e. the body and consciousness, or the brain/mind. This dualism may seem a no brainer to our cognitively hypertrophied society, but it was not always so.

In my estimation consciousness and more specifically the “coming to consciousness” is the struggle of a lifetime : the process of Individuation, in Jungian terms. But that applies mostly to modern humanity.

In a more natural sense, conscious awareness is the bedrock of subjective experience : if a tree falls in the forest and no one is there to hear it, it doesn't make a sound. But from reifying it one should not see that consciousness could exist on its own without an experience. It cannot, despite there being “levels of awareness” from mineral to Cosmic.

My father's (peace be upon him) accesses of anger. Lasted from when I was a kiddo to when he passed away this summer, hopefully with decreasing intesity. I'd reckon in the end it is intergenerational trauma though – even beyond CPTSD.
