Do lifetime warranties make something BIFL?

I’d like a place where warranties aren’t a factor when discussing BIFL items. I know that some feel otherwise but for me the appeal of BIFL is NOT frugality (though it often overlaps) but rather in owning high quality, long lasting, repairable items. It also has an aspect of sustainability as I hope to only buy one of...

Started deleting my Reddit comments, now my profiles shows no comments at all, despite them being there!

I don’t know if Reddit is just trying to be a dick or what, but as I started to delete some comments, I’m not able to see any comments in my profile “hasn’t commented on anything”, but if I visit actual posts where I’ve commented, I can clearly see my comments there....

Reddit comments getting reported

I run a decent sized sub. I’ve noticed the last few days that all my sticky posts that say where else you can find us are getting mass reported. I usually have like 6 reports a week. I’m getting a report on every post made that gets the sticky all of a sudden. I just took the word “Lemmy” out and we’ll see if that...

Okay, I've read Berserk, had cries and laughters, but vomited from the Gantz. What another manga should I read?

I have a deep connection to Junji Ito’s works and realy enjoy beautifully drawn graphical violence. But not that cheap and stupid like it’s done in Gantz. I strive for something more meaningful, moreso if it’s a long manga that is availiable on the bay. Do you have some suggestions akin to Bers or Ito’s Spiral?

How Do I Avoid Giving Home Address to Bank?

I’ve heard of things like iPostal and Traveling Mailbox. Do these services allow you to register with bank, DMV, IRS, Voting, etc? How do they work? Would a normal P.O box using its physical address from USPS work? I’ve tried researching it and haven’t gotten clear answers....

If reality wasn't wholly rational, could one ever come to terms with it, or would one rationalize it instead?

Also how would one come to recognize reality’s irrationality anyway? By which I should clarify, when I say reality I mean the whole of existence, beyond everyday society which is a mush of reason, emotion, and ambiguous causation. In turn, when I’m talking about irrationality, I don’t mean emotionality or ambiguous...

Sanity check - is rsyncing to a remote computer that has zfs snapshotting an okay way to back things up?

I currently have two computers, one that has a big zfs raidz pool that I currently back everything up to. Right now, on my local computer I use rsnapshot to do snapshot backups via rsync to the remote zfs pool. I know I’m wasting a ton of space because I have snapshotting in the rsync backup, and then the zfs pool is...
