old, stupid
youre right, the hardware will never go away… but there are many in the cloud-only corporate space where hardware is almost irrelevant as every single piece of software, including windows, is provisioned from the net. thats today. whats tomorrow going to look like for retail?
i will check this out, thanks!
i figured this out… i had failed to reapply, ‘redump’ the .env file
ive made super lucky charms. 80% marshmallows seems to be the sweet spot.
russian national security is so fragile its sensitive to gender? oh damn
i have more sympathy than anything else for them. i see them as a very sad lot, who desperately need psychiatric counseling and for many, an actual education.
dehumanizing them dehumanizes you
there are far too many communicative platforms and protocols for any ‘social media’ site to be ‘irreplaceable’. i find the notion hilarious.
i just shut down a worlgroup server a few years ago… mostly up for majormud.
i with those asshats at the majorbbs restoration project would just release all the source code. they clutch those pearls like theyre valuable in some way
aol/prodigy were ‘the net’ to the general public by 94. i remember writing xmodem scripts to download boobie picks from single line bbs’ ~89.
their point was that the british dental healthcare is as adequately provided for as in the US, where children die from lack of dental healthcare. ie, its not.
dont overthink it… servers/workstations rsync to a nas, then sync that nas to another nas offsite.
i think discord started as an irc extension, which is why it still has a ton of hooks for it
reddit = [link aggregate] threaded forum
twitter = user broadcasting/user following nonsense
fediverse = reddit + twitter
microblog button is the twitter side to the fediverse/kbin instance where people can shout into the void, and other can follow… i guess.

cheap, pay for what you use. serious linux guys, i switched back when whatshisname caused protonmail… have not had a single issue
its about the big datasets required to train systems to interact with and generate content as human beings… as usual, its a profit motive.
3 of the top 4 results for me are fediverse related when searching for “lemmy”.
I don’t think its the signing up, its the lack of centralization/community. reddit was a singularity, the community is protesting en-masse because they felt they were all part of the same thing.
to me, the fediverse is a segmented… oddly connected group of overlapping communities. it lacks cohesion.
i remember the 'sub’reddit announcement!
it feels like with the distributed nature of this system, i have better chance to be technically involved. im on attempt 3 of my own instance of kbin… feels exciting again for first time in a decade
is this the same bullshit they pull in the US where they suck all the funding out of a perfectly functioning system, which cripples it. then they get to point at that system as a failure the only answer to which seems to be ‘privatization’?
