I get "Can't strip EXIF" error, tried with a couple of files

Ok so I have bad news and good news.
The bad news is that our current exiftool install seems to not support writing WEBP. The good news is that you won't accidentally leak your metadata.

Currently looking for a way to update it…

Post quality RSS feeds for whatever. Blogs, news sites, even a YouTube channel RSS feed or other video content. As long as it has an RSS (or atom I guess) feed attached to it.

I'll go first and dump some of what I think are good ones:

>Grumpy Gamer
https://grumpygamer.com/rss
this one is rad, it's the personal blog of the lead developer behind The Secret of Monkey Island series (so basically my hero). He talks about a lot of cool random shit. Check it out.

>Niki Tonsky
https://tonsky.me/atom.xml
Another personal blog, I've only read a few articles but they have to do with UI mainly which I like.

>Cosmonaut Magazine
https://cosmonautmag.com/rss
Quintessential pretentious leftwing magazine. It's good, I like it. It's more insightful than I thought it would be and their articles even when I disagree with them (I usually don't) are always comfy reads.

Isn't having a unique set off RSS feeds like shining a searchlight from orbit on yourself every time you check it?

>>26067
Theoretically yes but that is not unique to RSS feeds.

>>26067
not if you torify your RSS reader

Since US tech embargo on China is still in effect and US plans to squeeze Chinese tech companies by restricting their access to computer chips. China's reaction to this was to make one of their goals to have a home-grown alternative for Intel, AMD, TSMC and the like to decrease dependence on the US. So I was wondering what kind of progress have they been making lately and what are their prospects of ever having a viable alternative to Intel and AMD?

There is all this talk about SMIC, Loongson and Zhaoxin and that in early 2020 Zhaoxin allegedly published a chip comparable to 2017 level intel and AMD tech and they are planning to have parity with Intel in a few years. Then there are Some sources are saying that China is failing horribly at acquiring manufacturing tech for more advanced processors. And I really can't make any real sense out of it.

So when will I be able to buy a computer that uses a hardware that dunks on burger made tech and sends my personal data to Beijing instead of Washington, if ever?

Is the argument that the Chinese doesn't actually even need to catch up in terms of R&D, that "Made in China 2025", and China's 14th five-year plan has already been a success? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Made_in_China_2025#Funding_and_evaluation

Or even better the "Fourth Industrial Revolution" is actually the second "Starwars", and coming "Third AI Winter". Side with the least comprehensive and effective government investment wins because the objectives are of dubious utility.

Think now this mostly can't be the case. If cost of automating services like tellers or cashiers, and logistics industries (of course logistics came to mind even before) drops to the point where these things could be reasonably automated it would have a significant impact. The odd thing to me is that these could largely already be automated by simple web-apps or button panels and scanners, or in the case of logistics by train yards. Is natural language processing, or sophisticated image recognition really necessary for such automation - or more compellingly, would they be sufficient for such a realization? Capital simply systematically undervalues labor and so such an automation has only been partial; and it may be that reducing the cost of implementing these services would be such that it could cause radical shifts in industry. In some industries, like logistics, this is nearly a guarantee maybe starting 2027 it looks like.

Is StarFive (https://www.starfivetech.com/en/site/company) really Chinese or no? If they count then might they already have a cool Chinese RISC-V: https://milkv.io/mars#buy (Shenzhen MilkV Technology Co., Ltd (Milk-V)) can take a SATA SSD with an adapter which was always an issue with older SBC.

Did web-frameworks end up dying? Or can you at least make due without them? Not a front-end developer.

Seemed like it was more consolidation under React as the new JQuery and then some competition from other frameworks.

Will there ever be an alternative video platform that matches its ability to let you regularly put out content to a large audience?
Vimeo comes close but you have to pay to exceed the limits and the audience is definitely more limited.

Is it ovir for yt-dlp chads? Other sites still work.

>>25699
just update yt-dlp. devs have already found a workaround.

>>25700
No, they haven't. It's not a yt-dlp issue. The workaround is to log in or use a different network.

>The workaround is to log in or use a different network.
I haven't seen the message since last post. There does seem to be some change in video formats on some videos on some channels. '-f worst' no longer always returns a download, requiring checking available formats '-F' and merging video and audio files. yt-dlp devs are chads, I haven't opened a youtube page in years.

>>25967 (samefag)
lol started seeing the login requirement again just after posting that. It's intermittent. Probably a slow rollout to avoid mass awareness. Resetting the internet connection fixed it and allowed download. I've started using rumble and other sites when possible when using yt-dlp.

>>25961 (me)
Oh wait this is /tech/
Something like bash where you can execute other programs and pipe the output into others, like a rube goldberg machine.
This can make every bit of the program in whatever language seems like it'd be the easiest or best fit for the task.

BASIC is the language of the people. Historically speaking.

>>25963
Basic for the most part has been replaced by Python. The different dialects many of them lacking basic features gave Basic a bad image to programmers. For example the simple act of reading input is not standard across the dialects of Basic.

>>25965
>>25963
The language of Capital is not the language of the Manifesto. You probably need different languages for different tasks. Maybe what you use to organize programmers is not the same as what you use to make intellectual tooling.

Does anyone know if there are any active groups on Element that people can join to discuss Marxism?

Spent a while looking but can't find anything.

If I can't find one in a couple days, I'll make one and link it here.

It's crazy, that this book is from 1996.
