Mentally unstable and introverted programmer/gamer/weeb

  • Normal citizens actually pay for AI??

  • Well, I forgot to mention that I don't just use these audio files on my Linux machine. I use SyncThingy in order to use the same files on my phone as well (which runs LineageOS). So, unless VLC for Android also has that feature, I would prefer a solution that works regardless of which platform I'm using, thus why I was looking to do re-encoding on Linux. Though admittedly, I was also wondering if the answer was no because I thought I might have finally found a decent idea for a project

  • Can we at least send out the fascists to die first? Not that I'm advocating we kill them necessarily, but might makes right is a big part of their ideology so like it's more like practicing what they preach? Kinda??

  • There's also Tenacity, which is a fork of Audacity after it was bought by some company iirc. I was actually considering to use it to manually adjust the audio of each file. I didn't know it had a normalize feature already though, guess it can just do the work for me then

  • Linux @lemmy.ml

    Is there an application that stabilizes the volume level of downloaded mp3 files?

  • Guess we're just going to need to remove him ourselves. Going out fighting is better than whatever future we're going to have at this point, tbh

  • "Most of the world" was a little hyperbolic admittedly

  • Where would I go if I migrated away? Most of the world is falling into authoritarianism as the child protection laws and the attempts to effectively ban OpenPGP encryption have proven. Not only that, most of us Americans only know English and a bit of Spanish (if even that).

    So, even if I moved away and abandoned my friends and family to face the fascist wolves without me, then I'd only be delaying the inevitable. I'd only encourage you to move away if you're trans, but otherwise we must hold the line here no matter how tempting it is to move away from it.

  • Nah, we can undo inflation by implementing deflation. That worked almost a century ago, didn't it? /j

  • "Don't get married, women. Or you no longer have the right to vote!" -- MAGA, apparently

  • I don't even know how they thought this was a dunk. Did they really expect us to say something like "I can't believe AOC worked as a bartender one point in her life! I would never elect a bartender!"

    They really think that the country is THAT STUPID. Which is just sad since they'll probably be half right. Everyday I become more and more ashamed of my country so we'll see...

  • Technically we have one. It's called the Google Pixel 3 XL (literally everything runs on it somehow)

  • Authoritarianism broadly speaking is just a strong central government, so I suppose it's not always a dictatorship per say if that's what your point is. However, even still, there would be a class of people with absolute power over the populous just like the rich towering over the poor under capitalism. So it'd essentially be the government putting the boot over your neck instead of the billionaires

  • I believe that the meme I was responding to referred to "tankies" always being right, which would mean communist, not socialist.

  • I never said that I was a liberal. If anything, I consider myself a market socialist since anything needed to survive shouldn't be comdified for capital.

    I'm simply saying that giving one man absolute power whether it be political or through wealth will inevitably lead to corruption. After all, the meme states that tankies are "always right", and I'm assuming that by tankie they mean the authoritarian left like Stalinism, Maoism, etc.

  • Authoritarian Dictatorships famously never become corrupt after all

  • I mean, even if he didn't, will I cry about it? Not really. Especially considering his debate with JD Vance exposed him as moderate right wing at best

  • Better late then never...I guess?

  • I would, but Reddit banned me for being a "security risk" after I started security hardened my browser and apparently they prompt you to login when you use a VPN :/

  • This may finally convince my parents to get rid of their ring camera. Thank you
