Hey audio processing experts (looking at you, @halcy), are there any good audio upscalers, preferrably open source? I have a bunch of audio books that got encoded as 32 kbit/s MP3s back in the day and I currently don't have easy access to the original CDs. I've tried audiosr but that throws […]

[photography, female body, body paint, slightly nsfw] People seem to like the pictures from project kEINEvenus (or "(not) a venus"), I'll share a few more. kEINEvenus is a project that explores beauty ideals and expectations allocated to the female body […] [Original post on social.helios42.de]

Dear German ISPs: asymmetric bandwidth is a complete joke in the year of 2025

Als jemand, der an einem Samstag in der S5 nach #karlsruhe sitzt, weil der RE umgeleitet wird, kann ich sagen: die Hölle ist blau-weiß.

The fan on my Framework 13 laptop made weird noises for the last few weeks but @frameworkcomputer sent me a free replacement part. Installing it took 3 minutes and the instructions were super clear. 10 screws (5 on the case, 5 on the heatsink/fan), no adhesive, no warranty void stickers, no […]

Liebe Freunde von #eurobox, #eurokiste und #Eurobehälter, ich bräuchte mal etwas Beratung. Ich suche für das private Lagerregal zu Hause Boxen mit Grundfläche 600x400mm, am liebsten mit Deckel. An Höhe hab ich ca. 400mm zur Verfügung, vermutlich werde ich da zwei kleinere Boxen aufeinander […]

Do ur plushies ever give u a look and u kiss them on their snout?

I'd say it's time to malfunction and destroy civilizations. Who's with me?

Everyone is talking about how bad the #gpt-5 #llm is so I gave it a very simple task: [X] and [Y] are community events in the [Y] scene. How long have they existed and which user has attended the most events? It correctly identified a wiki page that has some of this info as well as links to […]

OH: What is this? I suddenly have energy to do stuff. Is this what being happy feels like?

@BahnAnsagen Gerade im ICE200 nach Hamburg-Altona: "Beim Aussteigen vergessen Sie bitte nicht ihre vier K: Kladeradatsch, Kinder, Koffer, Kabel."

Let it be proclaimed across the Fediverse that @DFYX is a genius! They've completely solved the problem of #activitybot not showing followers properly. Just tested their fix, and it works perfectly: https://socialhub.activitypub.rocks/t/list-of-followers-isnt-available-to-mastodon/4717/9

I'm beginning to understand why there are so few blogging platforms that work with #activitypub. I thought I'd make my own as a weekend project and while it shows up fine in https://browser.pub/, getting #mastodon to correctly display posts and followers is driving me absolutely crazy. Why does […]

War eine schöne #gpn23. Ich war zwar leider arbeits- und wetterbedingt nur einen halben Tag da, hab mir keinen einzigen Talk angeschaut und war zu faul, ein paar Leute zu suchen, die ich gerne mal live treffen wollte (z.B. @filmroellchen und @MiaWinter), aber ich hatte trotzdem Spaß und bin auf […]

Hat hier jemand Interesse am M'era Luna Festival vom 8. bis 10. August 2025 oder kennt jemanden, der Interesse hat? Ich habe mindestens zwei Wochenendtickets zum Einkaufspreis abzugeben, weil jemand aus meinem Camp keinen Urlaub bekommen hat. Eventuell sind es sogar drei. #meraluna #festival […]

Since everyone is posting their #moon photos from last night, here are mine. I highly recommend viewing them full size as the preview might crop the most important part. #photography

Happy #pride

Hey, #3dprinting folks, is there somewhere that sells PLA filament in small quantities (like 50g) for when I just need a little of a color for a one-off project and don't want to buy a whole spool? I've tried one of those mixed color sets for 3d printing pens that get sold on Amazon but the […]

The internet is like a dozen sapphic transfem nonbinary robot-cat-things cosplaying as a billion people.

Does anyone here have experience with C# P/Invoke? I've successfully compiled mruby as a DLL and am trying to wrap it but get access violations when calling mrb_get_args_a(mrb_state*, char*, void**), presumably because of the last parameter which expects an array of void* that will be filled by […]

Probably the last CVE indexed before it goes dark should be CVE-2025-DOGE (critical, local privilege escalation vulnerability that leads to malicious code execution and data exfiltration).

[Rant Arbeit, Ausbeutung] Und wieder sitze ich hier und lasse mir eine Präsentation zeigen, in der von einem Rekordjahr 2024, einem übererfüllten ersten Quartal 2025 gesprochen wird. Und ich frage mich, wie das damit vereinbar ist, dass ich inflationsbereinigt inzwischen 13% weniger verdiene […]

So let me get this straight... I have every single Nintendo console since the NES, including a Switch and OLED Switch; I own over 100 Switch games; I've paid for Nintendo Switch Online since it came out... But I'm not allowed to preorder the Switch 2 directly from Nintendo because I'm part of […]

@GeschichteFM als ich gerade die FeedGAG-Folge vom Sonntag nachgeholt habe, ist mir eingefallen, dass ich euch seit einer ganzen Weile dieses Foto hier schicken wollte. Ihr könnt ja mal raten, auf welche Folge sich das bezieht. Auflösung im Alt-Text

Dear #Nintendo, I don't know how much you've spent on developing Nintendo Today but that app could have been an RSS feed.

We live in interesting times. Friend of mine is a scientist in France. He just got briefing on what to do when traveling to the US. He was told to use an empty, freshly installed laptop with nothing but his presentation on it. Uninstall all messengers and social media. If he has to surrender […]

From the category "things I never expected to be thinking about": I saw a discussion on Lemmy where someone advocated for state-run dating apps which to me sounds like the worst idea ever. And now I'm wondering if it would be possible to build a zero trust dating platform where the server […]

Happy snowy valentrain's day everyone! #trains #photography

Der örtliche Rewe präsentiert: concerto in a-Moll für drei Leergutautomaten

Finally managed to get rid of all vendor-specific protocols and dependencies on external servers in my home automation setup and replaced everything with Zigbee. A bunch of MOES light switches, one MOES relay to switch a ceiling light, four Ikea Tretakt smart sockets that control accent […]

Dear friends of the #FoxCalendar, once again I'm a bit late in creating the new thread. The holidays have been busy and there have been some sad news that the foxes had to help me deal with. But now I'm back, ready to show you the 9th edition of the fox […] [Original post on social.helios42.de]

Frage an @marudor und die anderen #bahn Experten: Ich hab jetzt über die Weihnachtszeit mehrfach zu gebuchten Fahrten die Meldung "Fahrt fällt aus" bekommen. Ich war davon ausgegangen, dass sich durch den Fahrplanwechsel Details geändert haben, aber wenn ich dann nach einer Alternative suche […]

OH im Bürochat A: Im Kühlschrank ist noch eine Milchpackung, die ich mit 18.11. markiert hatte. Gut, dass ich erst schaue, bevor ich die Milch in die Tasse kippe. B: Mmhh... Trinkjoghurt

@BahnAnsagen gerade im RE68 von HD nach FFM: „Sehr geehrte Fahrgäste, die Leitstelle hat angeordnet, dass wir nach Heppenheim weiterfahren, da wir den Bahnsteig in Laudenbach leider verfehlt haben.“

Modern web devs have a very different idea of a "better experience" than I do. This is an invite link for a preregistration for a game. The QR code leads to a registration form with email, password, that kind of stuff. How is that easier to do on my […] [Original post on social.helios42.de]

Montag Abend, dreiundzwanzig-Uhr-nochwas, ich ich schrubbe mit einer alten Zahnbürste die Fugen in der Dusche, weil am Freitag Übernachtungsgäste kommen. Ist das dieses "Erwachsensein", von dem immer alle reden?

You know how some doctors give children sweets or toys for being brave? I just got a covid shot from one who does that for all patients and it made my day.
