What's the name of the app you tried?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

the coordinates aren't there i think, but there are github projects out there that "detect" the panels and suggest split based on that. For most of the panels of most of the comics, that would be more than enough to do a clean split. I just can't find a real relatively easily deployable service that incorporates it.

https://maxhalford.github.io/blog/comic-book-panel-segmentation/

 

Does anyone here know a self hostable service (or a demo of someone else hosting it) which can split common .cbr filetype to a .cbz or other filetype to split the panels?

So for example the 1 image I put with this post, would be 8 seperate images (pages).

That would ideally somehow make the comic books readable on a (somewhat old) black and white travel-Kobo...

The main mess is genres. That is non existent in the folder structure (I do have it: artist > albums), and still very hard with Picard etc. But genres is very convenient for Autoplay, auto generate shuffle playlists

A good movie in 720p will always be a good movie. A crappy movie with shitty story and shitty acting will still suck in 4K or 8K or 4D or whatever will come. Like good vinyl LPs from 60s-70s never really went bad if they were well taken care of...

They pick it up, but it takes a while, days or weeks depending on where you dump it. Meanwhile the trash in the streets attracts rodents and vermin. Old electronics end up in the environment, batteries can leak etc.

I get the smell part. I've "dumped" an opened empty can of fish sometimes, because SO can't stand the smell of it so it can't wait until trash pick-up day. I dumped it IN A TRASHBIN at a busstop, not randomly on the ground between houses, soccer clubs and parks... that's just disgusting. The trashbin at a busstop is emptied very regularly and a lot less accessible to most rodents and vermin, yet a lot more accessible to trash collection service from the city. My inconvenience (bad smell) is so not enough to justify just dumping trash anywhere without any care at all.

As for the part "they get paid": it costs a city a lot more to keep streets clean when everyone dumps everything everywhere, than to pay for arranged pick-ups. Everyone including you ends up paying the bill anyhow through taxes and/or less service from city in general because budget's too tight.

These kinds of people are why we can't have nice things like public barbecues and toilets in city parks and it makes me sad.

But WHY don't they care? They were clearly people who themselves like to have clean new clothes, the car was neatly washed et cetera. They like cleanliness for themselves. Why burden others with your trash when the effort to legally and correctly throw it out seems to me barely any more effort than the effort they put in! For the thrill of it?

when you're in this situation, i can try to understand, tho i luckily have never experienced this. It sucks and I hope you're better now. But these people i'm ranting about were clearly by far not poor or homeless or socially or economically on the fringes of society, that's the part I find very hard to understand.

when i finally thought about taking out the phone camera, it was too late, driving away, license plate is unreadable in the picture. Will try to remember to make pictures sooner if I see someone doing stuff like this again

you make a ring with your thumb + index finger and move up and down

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

It's free for broken electronics too! Trash it... where it belongs.

 

Was walking down the street the other day. Taking my Pfand to the shop to cash it in and go shopping. Broad day light, nice weather day after many ugly weather days so everyone is looking rather happy in general.

I pass by a local soccer club, lots of youths coming and going by bicycle, it must have been like 5 or 6 in the evening and it seems like one group just ended training and another is starting.

A sparkling white tesla drives up to the entrance of the club, while doing so: blocks the cycle path... was wondering why the kids had to be dropped off at the door with this nice weather.

Anyhow: car stops at the old clothes collection container, passenger gets out: it's a fit young woman (driver is a young man), she walks to the trunk of the car, casually takes out bags of trash and puts them next to the "old clothes" container. It's clearly not bags of old clothes, and she's no putting it in the container but next to it. She takes out a broken vacuum cleaner: casually puts it behind the container, between the soccer club and a small parking lot and a park.

I tell her this is not the place for that and ask her if she can load it in to her car again. She acts like she's from another planet and doesn't understand me. She knows perfectly well. See the guilt in her face. She stays silent, rushes back to the car seat. They drive off, I give the middle finger and a "you're a fucking wanker" sign. We meet again like 100 meters further where they have to stop for red traffic light. They try to ignore me and stare ahead, avoiding all eye contact. Not talking to eachother either. I don't start yelling or hitting the car or whatever, because I didn't wanna cause a scene at the youths/soccer club.

These were really very very "decent" and "normal" looking people. Young, wealthy, healthy, white, with a car. How hard is it to drive 4 minutes to the recycling plant at the edge of the city and dump your trash where it belongs for practically free?

"Normal" people who have dumped their trash where it doesn't belong: WHY?

 

Hi, what's your setup?

I often listen to music through youtube on my phone connected to a bluetooth speaker. I use Newpipe, works very well. Then when I want to save a song or an album, there's the option for downloading (in newpipe itself) or on android for example Seal (works really well for downloading entire playlists and unselecting some sponsored video's from the playlist).

The hassle is uploading from the phone to my jellyfin. I've used File Browser, bit limited in options.

Then I thought I could use Syncthing to have some folder from my Android phone upload it automatically to my Jellyfin server (pc running dietpi), but it seems Syncthing is now discontinued on Android?

What I was first looking for was my own hosted yt-dlp with a mobile friendly UI, but that seemed quite difficult to get running.

 

Use UBlock, sponsorblock, firefox, etc. Recently it broke again, some stupid permission to connect youtube to other google services pop-up is permablocking it and I can't be bothered investigating.

Go to FreeTube cause why not. Works rather well for how it works. Especially for listening to albums it is fine, for video it's often too slow.

They found a way to inject bullshit in there too, now? And basically everywhere.

Albums are sometimes uploaded as 1 long video. Those are fun. Often they're uploaded as all songs seperately and then there's a playlist which makes it 'the album'. They used to be okay too.

Not anymore. People started injecting bullshit videos within the playlists. No, Andrew fucking Tates bullshit is not part of this album. Fuuuu. ANDREW I CAN'T STAY FUCKING MOTIVATED BECAUSE SOME ARSEHOLE INJECTED YOUR BULLSHIT VIDEO INTO THE MUSIC PLAYLIST I'LD LIKE TO LISTEN TO WITHOUT YOUR BULLSHIT INTERRUPTIONS!

I need to work on permanently replacing youtube. It no longer serves its purpose (for me of listening to albums) reliably.
