  • I was born at the north end of a valley, went to collage in the middle of the valley (maybe 2/3rds down), and then settled down at south end of the valley. About 100mi / 160km. Where I live now is home, my spawn point hasn't been my home in over half my life.

    Though I've lived for months at a time in a few more distant cities, all in the US.

  • What else should I self-host?

    Jump

  • Well, its apparently borked and I didn't realize it. I've never gotten an IP ban but I also wasn't using it a ton - mostly just for when I'd search for instructions on something an a YT vid was my only option.

    I mainly use Nebula for watching videos. And the handful of creators I follow who are strictly youtube, get slurped up by ytdlp via Pinchflat

  • No, it doesn't seem to be. That's ashame.

    Jump

  • I host a number of alternate frontends. Alexandrite for Lemmy, Redlib for Reddit, Invidious for Youtube. And then I have the Privacy Redirect extension make any links to Reddit or Youtube go to my local.

  • The version my team invented was called "balloon ball" and the balloon had to touch a desk, wall, or cubical before it could be hit by a person again. But the important bit is that the balloon wasn't entirely filled with air, it was partially filled with the propellant from a duster can. That made the "ball's" path unpredictable.

    There was also "balloon ball-ducken" in which there was a 2nd balloon inside the first balloon (and a sometimes a paperclip in the 2nd), but that sport was never quite ready for primetime.

  • Super awkward captain coffee commercial

  • Would he intentionally replicate crappy coffee?

    I still get cravings for absolute crap I ate in college. If I had a replicator it'd still be making the occasional totino's party pizza and cup-o-noodle.

  • Do you think Holden would replicate matches to put in his coffee, or would he just order it hot with phosphorus?

  • What old technology are you surprised is still in use today?

    Jump

  • Snot Flickerman was right, it's dd. It was in the docs I linked to show the commands. It runs on anything with storage devices and an operating system. I mainly use it on Windows servers running on AWS.

  • It surprises me how many system utilities I use that are older than I am. I am currently initializing a disk on a cloud server with an application that was written when Ford was the US president.
