This profile is from a federated server and may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance.

infamousbelgian,

The story is not about bombing Japan.

Yes, that was a war crime. Yes, that was terrible.

But if you know the story of Oppenheimer, or seen the movie, he did not decide anything. The military took over at that moment in time.

So if it was a movie about the military, this had to be shown. But it is about him. So a suggestion (as is clearly in the movie for about the last hour or so) is more than enough of you ask me.

infamousbelgian,

Agreed, but that is not what the movie is about.

He did say (no one knows what he believed) that just having the bomb would mean world peace…

infamousbelgian,

And exactly that is the struggle he had. He even informed the president (who told him to fuck off in a polite way)

infamousbelgian,

Wow. A lot of comments! Thanks all. I will check them and see if there is something that matches my use cases!

infamousbelgian,

Is Joplin something you can host or fontina use their cloud?

infamousbelgian,

You are probably a lot more technical than I am, but I would solve it by putting the TV on my guest network that comes out of the box of my mesh network…

infamousbelgian,

Even decided to run my own instance! Power to the people!

Jokes aside, my server can handle 10 or so more people. So if someone is looking for a new home… waste-of.space.

infamousbelgian,

Hello there!

I’m running Lemmy via Lemmy-easy-deploy on Hetzner (so self-hosted as in: via a provider). E-mail is working via smtp2go and is indeed active :)

infamousbelgian,

Flemish talking part of Belgium it is Jan Janssen

infamousbelgian,

Welcome to the club! I used the same easy deploy setup as you! Makes life really easy eh :)

Furthermore, to populate All, I have this one running: github.com/lflare/lemmy-subscriber-bot

If you do this, you will need some extra space because the database will grow, but I think it solves one of the (largest) downsides of running your own instance, namely discovering other communities.

infamousbelgian,

When you decide to set it up, you need to create a user on your instance and fill in those details in the command line to run the thing. Also make sure to change the instance name to your name, otherwise it will not work.

Other useful commands:

docker rm --force lemmy-subscriber-bot To actually destroy the docker container if you want to start over

docker logs lemmy-subscriber-bot To see if the thing is running and doing things.

infamousbelgian,

Mine went from 8 gb to 20-ish gb. So not that much ;)

infamousbelgian,

Hmmm that is not really the small instances “fault”, but that is the idea of the Fediverse…

infamousbelgian,

I have the feeling that this is extremely exaggerated. I only have 40 Gb in total and still have 23 gb free. I don’t run the tool constantly, but run it every once in a while to make sure that my All has interesting communities. If it would be 2 gb/day I would be loooooong over my 40…

infamousbelgian,

Not a movie but every few years I do a rerun of Scrubs (but not the last season).

infamousbelgian,

Yes and no. I organise holidays for people with disabilities and we do parties sometimes. And we pay “Sabam”. Something specific in Belgium that allows us to play music to our group (closed doors, specific ruling)

infamousbelgian,

May I suggest Covfefe as the new name?

infamousbelgian,

I was just looking for a funny name and came up with waste-of.space

It is 3x more expensive than a .be (my countries TLD) but I like it.

infamousbelgian,

Waste-of.be just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

infamousbelgian,

Not available anymore. But funny :)

infamousbelgian,

Yes :(

infamousbelgian,

This one is available!

infamousbelgian,

If someone is looking for a new home: waste-of.space.

Feel welcome.

infamousbelgian,

Nope. We are just wasting space.

Search engine without SEO garbage?

Been looking for a search engine that isn’t plauged with SEO garbage every time I look for anything. Been using DDG for quite a long time now, and I’m starting to get dissatisfied with results. It seems like more and more results are just companies trying to make their way to the top of the search results instead of anything...

infamousbelgian,

How are they dealing with your privacy? I’m not an extremist on that front but it was such a relief to stop seeing adds about everything I Googled when I switched to DDG.

infamousbelgian,

That seems like such a cool project. I am going to switch from DDG to them I think!

infamousbelgian,

You can use lemmy.world/c/lsbsupport to populate your server! Do notice, database size will grow, as per expected.

infamousbelgian,
infamousbelgian,

Please add waste-of.space. Thnx!

Personal community?

When I was at The Bad Place I had a sub just for me to post on… anyone could read and comment, but only I could make a post. I used it kind of like a notebook, nothing personal like a diary. A fix I made for Gratuitous Space Battles crashing, a can opener I really liked, a commentary on when Reddit hired a pedophile and tried...

infamousbelgian,

Feel free to come over to waste-of.space to have your own personal space!

infamousbelgian,

Here’s another comment to get to 5.

infamousbelgian,

By no means an expert but how do you want to set it up? Different subdomains or folders?

I think subdomains are actual FQDN’s and will not cause issues. Folders might be an interesting experiment.

infamousbelgian,

That just depends on the language you speak. In Dutch Europe is actually called Europa.

r/selfhosted is still rising, WTF? Come to Lemmy!!!

Hi all! I used to be a daily r/selfhosted lurker and a bit active user. Since the Reddit saga I thought that r/selfhosted would be one of the first and bigger community to move to Lemmy due to the IT knowledge of all of their users and the sensitivity about self host/privacy/open source, but I see that not only the community is...

infamousbelgian,

Well… I hosted nothing myself, but now I host my own Lemmy instance :o)

infamousbelgian,

Let us indeed hope that it has happened.

infamousbelgian,

Twas one of the first Lemmy “memes” if you want to call it like that.

A guy needed advise to not poop for 3 days. Never heard from him again.

It was followed by the Beans episode.

infamousbelgian,

your username is from another planet :D

Help! Instance syncronizing in a very weird way

Hi, so I launched my very own instance. I’m posting from here, and hopefully this post makes it there. I subscribed to a few coms, but I’m getting outdated posts and the votes don’t line up, also the comments do not all load. So I’m able to federate, but for some reason only some of the data is coming over to my...

infamousbelgian,

To “fix” all, you can run a bot. Check !lsbsupport

infamousbelgian,

infamousbelgian,

I don’t think so, but in what direction do you have questions? Glad to help where I can.

infamousbelgian,

What benefits does something like BRICs bring to a country like Ethiopia?

infamousbelgian,

Stop what you are doing and use github.com/ubergeek77/Lemmy-Easy-Deploy

It is super easy this way.

infamousbelgian,

If you are not allowed to vent your opinion in a (real world) public marketplace with 1000 people listening to you, but you go to a forest, where only birds listen to you and you shout the same opinion, are you censored or not?
