Right? Elitism in this thread is strong. I have never been in a situation where I NEED to use 7z instead of zip.

That’s what different instances are for, although a lot of big instances do this kind of blanket ban. Maybe you just have to run your own instance.

Yes. As with all too good to be true things, even if it’s true, people will abuse it and force to be not true anymore.

That’s not Lidarr’s fault though. Lidarr gets the data from MusicBrainz, and MusicBrainz is very community driven. So if no one adds data to it, they won’t have the data automatically.

Also, the music piracy scene is just not as standardised as movie and TV shows. It’s hard to automate when every releaser uses different naming format.

There’s a reason why they insist that you all get MATLAB, and it’s because of compatibility. Like you’ve mentioned in your story, there’s one function that wasn’t working on Octave. If they don’t standardise and let every student decide themselves which software they want to use, every different software will probably have different incompatibility and different functions will be broken on different software and a lot of resources would need to be spent on debugging for all the different softwares out there.

There’s no reason that standard should be MATLAB though.

I’d rather see something where the algorithm is open and pieces of it are voted on by the users and other interested parties. Perhaps let people create and curate their own algorithm’s, something like playlist curation on spotify or youtube but make it as transparent as possible, let people share them and such. Kind of like how playlists are shared.

Isn’t that already how it works, sans the transparency part?

You press “like” on something you like, and the algorithm shows you more that are related to that thing you just liked. Indirectly, you’re curating your feed/algorithm. Or maybe you can look at this from another angle, maybe the “like” button isn’t just for the things you like, but also the things that you don’t particularity like, but would like to see more.

Then there’s other people around you, your Facebook friends, their likes also affect your feed, as you can see the algorithm suggests things that “people that are interested in things you’re interested in, are also interested in”.

You’d be surprised

It’s supposed to be on sale digitally today on Prime Video, iTunes, and Microsoft Store in the UK.

A Google search for “France phone camera” only gives this posted link and dailymail.co.uk article, both of which are not really trustworthy sources, IMO.

So I’m gonna go with “this is very possibly fake news”.
