Apparently its called “Innovis”. I tried to find a few articles but they all read like press releases or AI slop.
There is a blurb on Wikipedia fortunately:

Try to get a really early start so you aren’t spending the last few hours driving in darkness. If you haven’t listened to the “Shit town” podcast, it got me through a long drive once. This was on a 2012 car with no smartphone features besides basic bluetooth, but there was a pairing procedure that got audio to at least play (it was really wonky to setup, I had to look it up).
Edit: Big Caveat to my advice on the starting early, be careful if your trip ends inside a huge metro area on a weekday, as bad timing can land you straight into some horrendous rush-hour traffic.
Yeah, I’ve been fortunate enough to be offered those multiple times as well. I froze my credit with the big three agencies after the third or fourth breach. Recently learned there’s apparently a fourth agency now? Cool. And there’s hundreds of data broker sites…

I had a tricky time getting hardware encoding to work and it ultimately ended up being I needed to expose the GPU to the Docker container. The yaml config needed:
devices:
- /dev/dri/renderD128:/dev/dri/renderD128
- /dev/dri/card0:/dev/dri/card0
Note this was on a low-end Synology NAS with some sort of crappy intel GPU, but it actually works now, I was surprised. I only mention because before this I spent lots of time messing around with the Jellyfin settings and only the logs tipped me off. Jellyfin loves to fallback silently to CPU transcoding it seems, which I guess is good, but make troubleshooting unintuitive. Searching for log errors online gave me this solution.
There’s no sleep like class sleep. Five minutes feels like an eight hour rest.
I do a lot of invasive species management. Many of the common names are “exotic” sounding and include “Asian”, “Chinese”, “Japanese” etc because they were marketed this way in the 20th century to appeal to gardeners and land managers who didn’t know better and just wanted fast growing, pretty plants.
Now, in the current atmosphere of sinophobia I have often heard someone imply these invasives were deliberate sabotage. But it was westerners who imported these things. We wanted them, or at least wanted the plant that hosted the insect, or whatever. Also, by that logic we have “sabotaged” China with our invasives.
I feel like as a society we are so inarticulate, hateful, and short-sighted that we no longer have the ability to solve complex problems.
It looks horrific to me. Like a film prop from Cronenberg or Lynch. I think it’s the mix of mechanical motion, a material that reminds me of Jean Jacket’s stomach from Nope, and a structure like a severely prolapsed rectum. No way could I get off in this thing.
This is probably just because it’s DC. The rules get really muddy there. For a long time the highest elected position in DC was head of the school board, and even though ostensibly there’s “home rule” now, Congress still loves to punish the local populace by overriding anything they think scores points with their base back in Idaho. If you get convicted of a felony in DC you actually get transferred to federal prison.
If you can find it, I keep a small bag of straight-up wheat gluten and I add a spoonful or two when I want to make stronger flour. A small bag lasts forever and a little goes a long way.
It’s not just tech. Gardening, DIY, cooking, and similar popular subjects have been completely destroyed by this crap. If I see an AI generated header image or thumbnail I immediately backpedal now because I assume that means the text is bullshit too.
The example stuck in my memory now is when I was trying to read about watermelon growing times and the article said they flower a week after germination.There’s now frequently this, “oh GOD DAMN IT *close tab*” moment when you realize it’s actually total slop. Like, “oh so this article is BULLSHIT bullshit.”
Seems like basically every company is covering up crimes that happen on their properties, and lots of those are sex crimes. I have no data, just anecdotally it’s been almost every company I’ve ever worked for and the experience of virtually every woman I’ve known well enough to talk candidly about this shit. I’m not talking about “nice ass” comments either, I’m talking like, “blow me or you’re fired” type shit.
Not an excuse for Ubisoft, but it’s kind of like how Covid is now endemic so we’re like “oh well”. This disease is so common we apparently don’t give a shit. There was a brief window of hope with “Me Too” but then reactionaries shut that down.
I found the original blog post more educational.
Looks like these may be typosquats, or at least “namespace obfuscation”, imitating more popular packages. So hopefully not too widespread. I think it’s easy to just search for a package name and copy/paste the first .git files, but it’s important to look at forks/stars/issue numbers too. Maybe I’m just paranoid but I always creep on the owners of git repos a little before I include their stuff, but I can’t say I do that for their includes and those includes etc. Like if this was included in hugo or something huge I would just be fucked.
I worked in a place where you dialed in to the PA system, and NOT using your finger to hang up was a rookie move, since the rattling of the receiver was deafening over the speakers. Definitely worse to use a sensor.
I’m starting to think it’s something super specific to the particular hugo theme I’m using and how it wants users to insert custom js/css to get it all baked down into the right place in the final output. I’ll keep bashing on it, thanks for your help!
Edit: OK this is kind of hilarious considering the community I posted to, but I actually think it works fine but something about my Librewolf setup is breaking it. It works fine in Firefox and Chrome, and since I jump around between them as I work I just happened to test in Librewolf right as I made this change. Not to get too far into the weeds but I think I’m going to just go ahead with not linking cloudflare. Thanks again.
Thanks fixed. Interesting jerboa and the web version of lemmy are developed by the same person but using the “code” button in the web frontend only uses one backtick. That might be worth a bug report.
I’m actually trying to get away from github also, so maybe codeberg pages instead? This is a part of the process I haven’t done enough research into, I wanted to get the static site working locally first then “shop around” for hosts.
OK, looks like the image paths are correct. It’s something about the JS that fades them in. If I toggle the opacity property on/off then suddenly it works fine, until I refresh, so something funky is going on there. At least I know the structure is correct hugo-wise so it’s just a matter of tracking down the fade-in issue.
The issue seems to be with how hugo renders everything down into a /public directory. Somehow this is breaking the static images Lightbox uses to do prev/next/close. It’s a small issue and I’m sure the fix is something dumb, it just wasn’t obvious to me (the images appear to be correct). But sounds like it’s worth just debugging it…
Something about how hugo is cooking everything down into a /public directory is breaking the overlay images (like the next/prev arrow). I’m sure I can track it down but since I’m pretty inexperienced this will take me some time (at cursory glance all the paths seemed good, so I’m not sure why it’s broken).
I would also prefer to host it myself so maybe I should just do this…
