The general vibe around r/childfree on reddit wasn’t a positive one

There’s something really depressing about an AI telling a suicidal person they’re not alone and referring them to the vague notion of “national resources” or “a helpline”

Ikea makes some of the best smart home stuff IMO. Really well built, decently priced and no stupid lock in or cloud only stuff.

peter, to selfhosted in Why docker
@peter@feddit.uk avatar

Docker is a messy and not ideal but it was born out of a necessity, getting multiple services to coexist together outside of a container can be a nightmare, updating and moving configuration is a nightmare and removing things can leave stuff behind which gets messier and messier over time. Docker just standardises most of the configuration whilst requiring minimal effort from the developer

I’m sure that is gonna end well

peter, to asklemmy in Those who tried Linux and went back to Windows, what caused you to go back to Windows?
@peter@feddit.uk avatar

I used Linux desktop as my work rig for a year and a half. I absolutely hated it, had constant problems and lost time almost every day to stupid workarounds. When I tried to search or ask for help the answer I was usually met with was “your hardware is wrong” or “why do you want to do that” or more often than no “you’re using the wrong distro, you should use [different one every time]”. I also found the UI to be quite ugly and often obtuse, you can tell that there’s very few open source UI/UX designers. I switched back to windows and I’ve had better performance and less bugs.

“Matter Casting” is not a very catchy name

peter, to homeassistant in Can anyone recommend a wireless doorbell that works with home assistant?
@peter@feddit.uk avatar

Unifi protect doorbell, but I do believe you need a unifi protect instance in order to record

peter, to asklemmy in Craziest YouTube Video ID?
@peter@feddit.uk avatar

There’s the classic YouTube video which contains it’s own ID in the video: youtu.be/j70AA9arThc

peter, to selfhosted in App that tracks prices on websites?
@peter@feddit.uk avatar

A tool that can track price changes on any website automatically is difficult since there isn’t a standard way that prices are presented on a website. As has already been said, changedetection is your best bet

peter, to newcommunities in Reviving !movies@lemm.ee following lemmy.film shutdown
@peter@feddit.uk avatar

It’s getting frustrating seeing instance admins disappear with no warning.

Expect to see this happen a lot. The benefits of federation also lead to these downsides

peter, to asklemmy in why does open source companies like canonical and opensuse don't host their own fediverse instances?
@peter@feddit.uk avatar

Why would they?

peter, to asklemmy in rate my lemmy instance and lemm.ee
@peter@feddit.uk avatar

Rate it for what

peter, to asklemmy in Is it a good idea to enable "show bot accounts" on lemmy?
@peter@feddit.uk avatar

Bad bots won’t mark themselves as bot accounts so it’s lore a case of if you want to see things like reminder bots etc
