rattt··on DaVinci Resolve – Photo
The free version can now export 4k too as of a few versions ago.
rattt··on OpenZFS deduplication is good now and you shouldn't use it
Shouldn't jdupes like tools already work now that ZFS has reflink copy support?
rattt··on Show HN: OBS Live-streaming with 120ms latency
Microsoft's now shut down Mixer (formerly Beam.pro) primarly used WebRTC and had streams with up to 100k viewers at some point all via WebRTC, but can't find much info about it anymore now sadly.
rattt··on Cloudflare R2 IA storage tier
*Up to 3x of average monthly data stored, then $0.01/GB for additional egress.

Or free if you go through Cloudflare since they have the bandwidth aliance.

rattt··on Tunnel via Cloudflare to any TCP service
Yeah it supports generic tcp forwarding, I only tried it once when it released but worked without issues. Needs cloudflared on the client as well but so does the method in the blogpost so should be about the same:

rattt··on TPU v4: An Optically Reconfigurable Supercomputer for Machine Learning
> You could see that by how little RAM ended up being used in llama.cpp when they moved to mmaping the model.

From what I've read that was just an error in reading memory consumption after switching to the mmap version and not more memory efficient at all in the end.

rattt··on Web Stable Diffusion
Ohh wow that actually worked, that's awesome: https://i.imgur.com/4tYEphX.png

Tested on Intel MacOS 12.5 PC with AMD 8GB RX 580 GPU, about 28 secs for 20 steps, surprisingly fast too. I did have to go to chrome://flags and enable "Unsafe WebGPU" even on Chrome Canary (113.0.5656.0) before it would work, otherwise I just got "no adapter" errors.

rattt··on OpenJourney: Midjourney, but Open Source
Yes works with anything now, they removed the manual accepting of the terms and auth requirement some months after release.

You don't need a HF account to download the checkpoint, can be downloaded straight from the website/browser, direct url: https://huggingface.co/openjourney/openjourney/resolve/main/...
rattt··on Using a date-modified header to detect unique visitors without using cookies
Something like HyperLogLog might be fine assuming you don't need perfect accuracy.

rattt··on macOS is background scanning and following downloaded QR codes?
They could still be doing that through an Apple hosted proxy though? I believe services like discord and gmail webclient do that for links to not leak IPs.
rattt··on Show HN: AutoHotkey for Linux
BetterTouchTool has a lot of overlap with AHK I believe. Lets you remap keyboard/mouse actions globally and/or per application and perform actions or run scripts on keyboard/mouse input ands lots of features of that kind.

(Never used AHK myself but the couple times I looked for something similar to BetterTouchTool on Windows I got recommended AHK)

rattt··on Roll your own Ngrok with Nginx, Letsencrypt, and SSH reverse tunnelling
As far as I know the simple SSH "port forwarding" (-L and -R) used here is just layer 4 reading/writing from one TCP socket to another (plus some multiplexing/encryption in between) and doesn't suffer from any TCP over TCP problems, only the ssh tun forwarding option (-w) is level 2/3 and has that issue but that seems to be much more rarely used.
rattt··on Fleets: A new way to join the conversation
You can still choose to go back to reverse chronological.

They also sometimes randomly revert you to the new one and make you manually switch back again ...

rattt··on Twitch streamers report DMCA takedowns for in-game sound effects
Pretty sure. The article links four tweets three of which have screenshots all showing only the twitch muted VOD section.

The author of the first linked tweet even corrected themselves a day later in a reply to the original tweet.

>Thank you for all the reply’s and feedback! Im now understand that this isn’t a DMCA takedown but just your everyday classic muted vod. https://twitter.com/YamiltonJay/status/1327669258776506368

The only tweet without a screenshot in the article that called it a "copyright claim" also switched to calling it "a muted section" in a separate tweet. https://twitter.com/SL128T/status/1326949595511926784

A lot of people have been getting actual DMCA notices and strikes and bans usually for music but so far all the claims about sound effects I've seen were just the VOD muting system. Could still be happening of course but given the links the article cites I'd call the article headline misleading.

rattt··on Twitch streamers report DMCA takedowns for in-game sound effects
Misleading title as those are not actual DMCA takedowns.

Twitch uses audiblemagic to scan all saved VODs of streams for music and mutes anything it finds specifically to prevent streamers from getting DMCAd. Those are not DMCA notices sent by any copyright holder, that is just Twitch's internal system muting anything they think might be music. Lots of streamers then incorrectly end up calling those automutes being "DMCAd" on stream and Twitter.

You can tell by all the screenshots being of Twitch's VOD manager page that shows streamers what got muted. Notices about actual DMCAs on the other hand are only sent to the streamer via email and don't show anywhere on Twitch currently. Lots of people confusing those two including some news orgs.

RIAA and the music industry are hitting Twitch very hard right now with massive waves of takedowns mostly for people just plainly playing music on stream but also the occasional claim for ingame music made specifically for the game or things like people doing outdoor streams and walking by some music playing randomly in the background in a store somewhere but there's also a ton of misinformation being spread by people completely misunderstanding basic things about both how Twitch and copyright law work unfortunately. It's quite a mess.
