Valmond,

I don’t think Charlie Hebdo is very funny often, but you just grasping at straws here. You willfully misinterpret, no actually you just blindly follow a twitter that misinterpret something.

You know, they do this to anger people. To get followers. Etc.

Valmond,

Dude, stop changing the subject.

Valmond,

Lol get a life.

Valmond,

Dude it’s a piracy community. People do it for free. Some people ask for help to continue doing it.

That’s it.

Valmond,

So it seems you got an answer that you are okay with.

Valmond,

I only found out they were shitty persons afterwards.

Valmond,

Also, if you pat their head, the eyes might fall out.

Valmond,

Why use CBC too? Cha-Cha20-Poly1305 is an AEAD, so both an assymetric plus a symmetric stream cipher.

Valmond,

Ah thanks! Didn’t catch that.

[Discussion] How do you feel about age verification on Porn sites? (lemmings.world)

Porn sites Pornhub, XVideos, and Stripchat face stricter requirements to verify the ages of their users after being officially designated as “Very Large Online Platforms” (VLOPs) under the European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA)....

Valmond,

And if they aren’t smart enough, they’ll get a shit ton super sexualised stuff from the day they see a screen anyways.

It’s just a power game, or the old “vote for me, those things are evil”. I say that as no one seems to blend in sex ed. Like at all.

Honestly - How much will you sacrifice for a better world?

Confronted with the likelihood that we cannot achieve climate goals, confront socioeconomic inequality, and ultimately build a better world without significant personal sacrifice: How much are you personally capable and willing to lose? I mean this in the most earnest way possible. Acknowledging the likely possibility of working...

Valmond, (edited )

Yeah the old lie that we are all in it together and should try our best was, yeah, a lie, and some just took all our efforts.

There shouldn’t be billionaires, it’s a morally wrong concept. Money is not meant for hoarding.

We could just confiscate everything over 100 millions and they’d probably wouldn’t even notice. An upper limit of 10 millions seems fair, until no one starves on the planet, have access to health care, education.

And no heritages. Get your money as everybody else.

Valmond,

I’m on it but I’m in the process of migrating (0.18.4->0.14.5 OK 0.18.5->0.19.0 WIP ->0.19.1 Todo)

Valmond,

What about every 100th is a long steel rod painted white?

Valmond, (edited )

For the scaling, isn’t that mostly for those high availability / high demand content creators?

I mean, for me, Lemmy is a place where you interact, create, discuss. Not a platform where a select few have millions of “followers”?

So I think that bandwidth cost can be not that high for “enthusiast” servers.

Also, say you post a crazy viral video on my poor server, well people could(I know it doesn’t work that way automatically today) re-post it elsewhere because they like it and see that it’s just not available on my lil server because the hug of death.

Maybe information wants to be free, and if we share things on the internet, we shouldn’t think we had a right to control it any more. I mean is there a law against to create something being inspired by something else?

A bit like when you say something interesting to someone, and they repeat it to their friends, and they do the same and so on.

Sorry about the rant, it’s just a rant, not anything against you!, thanks for the information you provide.

I’ll try hosting video on my ~700Mb up line (IIRC) to see how it works if I get the howtos.

Cheers Lemmings :-)

Just moved to Linux: a follow up

I recently made a post discussing my move to Linux on Fedora, and it’s been going great. But today I think I have now become truly part of this community. I ran a command that borked my bootloader and had to do a fresh install. Learned my lesson with modifying the bootloader without first doing thorough investigation lol....

Valmond,

And a lot of configuration, or so I thought? I’m investing heavily but I’m scared for my investments :-)

Another Linux noob here, after a couple of Linux servers (Tenfingers, Lemmy) switched over (finally) my main PC, or well kids got the gaming machine and I’m on a Mint ThinkPad now :-) and a backup think centre tiny if the Lemmy server bails out.

I have this little windows box to print stuff (I didn’t know I hated printers) and every time I use it I’m so happy I don’t need windows in my personal life anymore…

Cheers and welcome OP!

Valmond,

Except that I’m jumping ship to Linux fully, I’m thinking a lot about hardware failure, not the data but say the mobo, so maybe that’s curious. Seemed you were knowledgeable about those things, or I’m explaining very badly.

Cheers

Valmond,

Oh yeah I start to get it, thank you so much!

Is a way to politely say you don’t really get it/needs more explanations, but for now it’s not the time.

Valmond,

In our modern lives we all have D vitamin deficiency, but as you can overdose (fat soluble vitamin) you have to get a prescription for that.

Valmond,

I mean if you send them to Russia to check that the next Putin vote count is “correct”, then it would just make the whole voting farce somewhat credible.

Valmond,

Tried to search for ZFS and just hit a lot of different stuff. I’m a senior CS/programmer person, slowly(since quite some time) but steadily floating/flowing/jumping from ms and all their obligatory stuff to a more personal small world. ❤️. Linux & al.

In that smaller world (with FOSS, Lemmy and so on!) I’d love having some sort of hard drive security, where I can chuck in an old drive, or replace another, but, hear me out, change the motherboard controlling all that too.

Today home is a mix of Linux (ThinkPad, ThinkCentre, Dell) Windows (kids playing + the little box for the “windows only” stuff), Mac (Adobe 🥲), and an old old Synology NAS (3TB+2TB backup).

All mixed up on ethernet and WiFi.

I am not going to be able to change this infrastructure very much (cables everywhere already).

Can I set up something so, for example if my ThinkPad crams(drive or mobo or say I just lose the laptop) I can like get it back in working conditions buying another ThinkPad and like switching out a burned out harddrive in a RAID system?

I wonder because Linux seems to separate “your things” and the “os things” very well, but there are obviously lots of other things, can you safeguard those things too?

Cheers to FOSS.
