Question: Is there an equivalent to Google Drive in Windows for KDE?
Is there an equivalent to Google Drive in Windows for KDE?
I'm talking full synchronization of my Google Drive files into a local folder.
I know there's the KDE KIO Worker that can integrate with Dolphin, but according to itsfoss.com:
Each time you try to modify a file, it is copied to a local cache directory. Once you finish modifying a file, it prompts for uploading the modified file to GDrive.
There's RClone that can do that I think, but I'm not certain. And it looks a bit complicated to set up.
What are you recommendations?
Than you can use Dolphin to handle your Google Drive as if it was a network drive.
Unfortunately, sometimes it wont let you login, so try it yourself
Yeah that's what I was referring to in my post. The KDE KIO thing. It's not exactly what I'm looking for.
I want the files to be accessible locally and to sync with the cloud when there are changes both ways.
It looks like Trump is looking away from Elon lol

Napotek: Vsi podatki iz računalnikov in telefonov bodo izbrisani, tako da prej naredi varnostno kopijo. Glede na to da je v PLACu internet počasen je najbolje že doma prenesti OS, ki ga želiš namestiti in ga prinesti na USB ključu.
OpenAI Is A Bad Business
OpenAI, a non-profit AI company that will lose anywhere from $4 billion to $5 billion this year, will at some point in the next six or so months convert into a for-profit AI company, at which point it will continue to lose money in exactly the same way. Shortly after this news broke, Chief Technology Officer Mira Murati resigned, followed by Chief Research Officer Bob McGrew and VP of Research, Post Training Barret Zoph, leaving OpenAI with exactly three of its eleven cofounders remaining.
This coincides suspiciously with OpenAI's increasingly-absurd fundraising efforts, where (as I predicted in late July) OpenAI has raised the largest venture-backed fundraise of all time $6.6 billion— at a valuation of $157 billion.

ChatGPT Plus is likely, for many people, a “lifestyle product.” And the problem is that, when people lose their jobs or inflation hikes, these products are the first to get slashed from the household budget.
So I have a slightly different experience here. When I lost my job recently I actually ended up signing up for ChatGPT plus. I abused the ever living hell out of 4o to crank out tailored cover letters and matching resumes. I was able to roughly triple my job search productivity until I got a job three months later.
Was it worth it? For that timeframe (3 months, $60) hell yeah since the mental labor of handcrafting cover letters for each job listing is extremely taxing and takes some of the awfulness out of the entire job hunt.
It helps when you've fed a few that you've made by hand to start in the same thread for it to use as an example (and format), along with one of your resumes. Then copy and paste the job description and have it generate a cover letter for you.
Keep it all in one massive thread, if it makes a mistake, correct it and tell it to apply those changes to future ones as well (in my case it kept saying I had over ten years of experience when in actually I just had ten, so I had to correct that behavior).
Since it's an AI it will sometimes hallucinate, this usually happens if there are terms in the job description that aren't in your resume... either have it regenerate (if it will take more than a few minutes to edit) or strip out the offending sentences. Some will need very little editing, especially if the job description closely aligns with what you have on your resume.
Oh and be polite because it now knows all your skills and can probably murder you in your sleep lol
I feel like if ChatGPT were the only LLM on the market, they’d have a real path to profitability, but it’s not even the best LLM on the market. And the open source models are nearly as good, meaning the vast majority of people who need an LLM can run it on their own hardware.
It’s kind of like trying to make a profitable business out of offering a special sauce that isn’t as good as your competitors sauce, and is barely better than the free sauce from Taco Bell. Oh and it costs you millions of dollars to produce a single bottle.

in reply to LiveLM • • •I actually have it installed on my desktops. It doesn't work on mobile and it doesn't work on thumbnail previews in lemmy either. Also the number of videos that actually have an alternative thumbnail is like 10%, at best.
I've also "gotten over it" by just not watching videos like this.
