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

midas,

If Pakistan objects to it you know it’s good

midas,

How I understand it is that database/io calls are heavy and network calls are relatively light. A user on the instance itself equals Database/io and a federated server means just 1 database call and a bunch of network calls. Since it’s a push model the instance only has to retrieve the data from the database itself once and then just pushes it to all subscribed instances.

midas,

That’s stupid money for an api testing tool lmao

Game of Thrones was nearly "destroyed" by pirates illegally streaming HBO content (www.forevergeek.com)

At first this article reads like your typical anti-piracy screed. It rants about how 10x more people watched GoT illegally (confusing them with lost sales) and ends with how downloading movies can get your credit card stolen....

midas,

I remember here in the Netherlands that you could only watch HBO through a specific internet provider (ziggo-Vodafone). I’d have to switch goddamn ISP’s to pay for their show. That gave me all the justification to pirate the shit out of it.

midas,

Turn them into people, oh wait they already are people not objects

midas,

I was considering it (having previously tested the now defunct Neeva) but the to me limited amount of searches is really stopping me from giving it a go.

midas,

Why are you simping for a company

midas,

Godverdomme wat lekker

midas,

I would not. Create an external network and just add those to the compose files.

midas,

So there’s a million ways to do things and what works for you works for you. For me, putting all services ina single compose file only has downsides.

  • Difficult to search, I guess searching for a name and then just editing the file works - but doesn’t it become a mess fairly quickly? I sometimes struggle with just a regular yaml file lmao
  • ^also missing an overview of what you’re exactly running - docker ps -a or ctop or whatever works - but with an ls -la I clearly see whats on my system
  • How do you update containers? I use a ‘docker compose pull’ to update the images which are tagged with latest.
  • I use volume mounts for config and data. A config dir inside the container is mounted like ‘./config:/app/data/config’ - works pretty neatly if each compose file is in its own named directory
  • Turning services on/off is just going into the directory and saying docker compose up -d / or down - in a huge compose file don’t you have to comment the service out or something?

YSK: The Fediverse is a privacy nightmare (blog.bloonface.com)

TLDR: While Fediverse won’t directly serve you ads, anonymous bad actors other than Meta can save, redistribute, and even dox you for any information you post here. Anything you post here can/will remain forever on some malicious instance that doesn’t honor deletion requests. So be careful!

midas,

Other platforms just have the illusion of privacy

If Lemmy.world doesn't defederate from Threads, Meta and all things Zuck within 24 hours, I will shut down my subs and leave.

I didn’t come to a new service just to see it get taken over by the corporate beasts who ruined the internet in general, and I am sure as hell am not going to use an instance that doesn’t care about its users....

midas,

That seems pretty rational

midas,

You either have a clean house or you have a kid. You’ll never have both at the same time. Most people have neither.

For me it’s also impossible. Theres just so much stuff.

  • robot vacuum runs at night, shit needs to be off the floor - this helps a lot already
  • be into podcasts, designated hour of cleaning while listening to something interesting
midas,

Maybe rememberme token is just for the checkbox on the login screen idk I use Lemmy

midas,

Damnation by Opeth. It’s a goddamn mood. Listen to the album in its entirety on a night by the fire or somewhere dimly lit. Put away your phone and just go into it. You would never guess they’re a prog death metal band (or idk what they are now but it’s a great contrast to Deliverance).

midas,

Ngl I do miss a parenting / daddit community, currently potty training my kid and it’s hard

midas,

so goddamn exhausting

midas,

I usually use namecheap because they have a mode that just queries a bunch of tld’s

midas,

Proud of you dude!

midas,

I do not. When the brain stops working it’s just the end. I wasn’t raised religious and I’ve never ‘felt’ anything spiritual. I respect people who do, but I just don’t - it doesn’t make sense to me.

Not that I’ve a choice but I do feel a sense of calm in the fact that when I die there’s nothing. We’re just a blip in a never ending universe.

midas,

Yeua idk discord sucks imo. There can definitely be a place for just chatter but just make a matrix channel

midas,

Nederland

midas,

Honestly most of the Lemmy.ml hosted communities act up for me. We should be avoiding that instance. Lemmy.dbzer0.com would be a better place

midas,

Just got to have a backup. I have children so for pictures anything Google is just not doable. Nextcloud on my home NAS, nightly backup to Amazon Glacier (super cheap to store because it’s expensive to retrieve) in case of a catastrophic failure (like fire). Every month or so backup the files to an external drive.

midas,

Download a free community edition

midas,

Obsidian, fastmail, Bitwarden, Waze, and a messenger (telegram)

midas,

Uhh apparently posted on ur other thread ymmel.nl/comment/128500

Can you reach file browser regularly? Attach it to a bridge network and expose the correct port to see if the container is running properly. Or check the docker logs for it. Could be that the reverse proxying isn’t working but I’d check the actual container first and go from there.

midas,

test since apparently my instance can only receive?>>

midas,

Wishing you the best of luck, hoping Kbin succeeds! It has everything to be a great platform for the long run.

midas,

Guess I’ll be skipping Twitter links entirely now.

Does anybody here uses teddit.com?

As I understand that front end is privacy oriented and is not down (I just checked r/ukrainewarvideoreport) since it doesn’t use the OAuth tokens, or is it the other way around? Anyway, whats the federanus stance on that one? Its slow as hell but I still check in from time to time to keep in the loop. What’s you guys take on...

midas,

I’ve been using libreddit on pc and I just checked and it still works. I’m going to keep it up for now but when it stops working I probably won’t bother updating it. You can try my instance here if you like: r.midas.rocks

midas,

Oh dope didn’t realize that could be selfhosted

midas,

You’re a legend!

midas,

I’m really digging !lemmyconnect

midas,

Why bother honestly

midas,

Message the admins I guess?

midas,

I believe that a social democracy is the best compromise we can make. The market should be able to innovate but rules set in place to protect workers and the environment. Social safety nets so people do not fall into despair - happy people equals less sickness and more productivity.

I believe UBI can play a role but I’m still not sure how exactly, luckily I’m not a politician.

In the end I’ll always vote more to the left, even though I’m well paid I think a society is healthier when there are less major differences in wealth.

midas,

If it’s a static amount of data you could look into glacier. I’m not sure what the exact retrieval costs would be but maybe they’re lower than renting 4TB of space elsewhere.

midas,

I didn’t even use Apollo but the defining moment for me was when spez lied about his interactions with the dev. That shit is foul and I just do not want to associate with that.

midas,

What’s this from?

midas,

Fuck ye

midas,

Yoo

midas,

Don’t really need to when you’ve got facial recognition cameras everywhere. Also guessing they didn’t ask the Uyghurs what they think. And regular Chinese folk can’t really Google that shit now can they?

midas,

Continuing on

On a government sponsored tour, officials took us to meet Mamatjan Ahat, a truck driver, who declared he was back to drinking and smoking because he had recanted religion and extremism after a stint at one of Xinjiang’s infamous “training centers”.

“It made me more open-minded,” Ahat told reporters, as officials listened in.

It’s really difficult debating you because it seems you’re just wilfully ignoring shit.
