  • It requires neither of those upgrades though? Unless you're still using Windows XP I guess for some reason. It's just an update to the image decoder

  • On ramp is people entering the freeway, off-ramp is exits where I'm from all of that happens on the right side. The rightmost lane frequently forces you into an exit only, ends entirely and then comes back shortly after, if you are traveling for an extended distance it is actually expected that you are in the Middle Lane. The leftmost lane is not meant to be traveled in , it is specifically labeled as a passing Lane it is to be used only when you are passing someone in the Middle Lane and if you are cruising in it instead of just passing you can actually get a ticket

  • This does not work, the right lane is on ramps off ramps and generally people going under the speed limit and would give me the same issue of not being able to cruise for my 3-hour journey.

    But don't worry! They already can easily overtake me it's called the passing Lane! in my state as well as the state I'm going to and from the leftmost lane of a three-lane highway is specifically for passing! You are not meant to be traveling in it consistently, They just need a couple brain cells to rub together

  • These comments are crazy lol, the comic is clearly talking about a three-lane highway and the person being in the middle lane. The problem is not the person in the middle it's the person refusing to pass on the left like they are supposed to.

    This happens to me a lot I take three plus hour Journeys between states pretty often, I am not going to constantly switch to the right lane and back for 3 hours because people want to go 20 over posted I'm going 5 over posted in the middle lane cruise control. If you want to go faster pass on the left thats what it's for.

  • That will be a very welcome change. Having the entire comment section disappear with the opening post is a little annoying

  • That's not exactly accessible, I have several threads in my history that appear to be gone. Supposedly they exist somewhere in the verse but I really don't feel like hunting them down. To be honest I'm not even sure how I'd start going about trying to hunt them down even if i wanted too

  • In its default state i think thats fair. Example docker bypasses most firewalls as it runs before iptables rules process. So if you don't either use 127.0.0.1:port:port (many compose files offered by projects do not do this) or add specialized iptables rules to fix that up you can end up directly exposing services with meaning to or even realizing.

    And yeah privilege escalation etc. There are solutions like what you mentioned but it can be a lot of work to set all that up so most people won't

  • There is literally a thread somewhere on my Lemmy I need to try and find just recently that shows this perfectly. Someone made a thread asking how they can self host their images for backup from their phone and naturally everyone pointed them to immich. And they immediately started complaining and bitching that they could not access it from outside their local network. Instead of asking how to fix that they were like what the hell is the point if I have to be on the same Wi-Fi this is stupid. And they basically did not want to engage with the people being like hey you need to either make a reverse proxy or open a port on your router. They should not be self hosting

  • You need to open a port on your router for it to be accessible from the outside world (example your phone on LTE or a different wifi) , this is not a limitation of the software but a security feature of your router

  • To be fair until very recently immich would have been a horrible recommendation for someone that is completely new to self hosting because almost every other update was a breaking change that required you to carefully read before updating.

    And even if you tried if your installation was old enough eventually your compose file would Drift Away from what main line was and you basically had to seek the help of the developers to fix it up.

    It only just recently released what is supposed to be the stable line that should hopefully no longer need these large breaking changes

  • Devices became ever more locked down for developers. Between bootloaders that can't be unlocked and drivers that have to be reverse engineered it's just too hard to develop custom roms now.

    There were always some devices like that but now it's most of them

  • Land with a view is still available at possibly reasonable prices! You just have to be willing to be VEEEEEERY rural with the nearest tiny town being 30+ out and nearest real city 1hr+

  • You really can't glean the information just by looking at it if you've literally never seen one before in your life. It's hard to Envision if you're just used to it, like I said I was a little slow to read it but I still know how I'm just not used to it so it's no longer instant . But I also can understand that if you've literally never seen one in your life and never had it mentioned to you you would really have no way to know what the difference between the big or the small hand was.

    Now if you did sit and stare at it for long enough you could eventually figure it out as the hands moved but most people aren't going to sit there and stare at a clock for 10min to try and figure it out.

    At the end of the day even mundane things can be a skill, and I do agree that there is a substantial lack of critical thinking as the generations go on it was a problem already in my generation much less these latest ones. All That No Child Left Behind and standardized testing crap really destroyed schools hard it went from critical thinking to just memorize the answer or skip the question if you don't know, asking questions became bad and unfortunately that's going to follow you into adulthood

  • There is many reasons it happened but not being able to read analog clocks was not one of them. I'm sorry that it upsets you so much that I don't agree but I feel like there's a better way to express it than what you chose.

  • I genuinely don't know where I would even find an analog clock anymore outside of school and I haven't been in school for more than 20 years. genuinely do not remember the last time I've seen an analog clock, and I work in a lot of public government offices who are usually pretty far behind the times but even they use digital clocks. to the point that I just went to look had a picture of one and it actually takes me a second to read now.

    I don't understand why people are so obsessed on holding on to knowledge that is not relevant to your daily life, digital clocks are objectively better at the task of telling the time and it's what exists everywhere in life now I don't really fault anyone for not being able to read an analog.

    If I had to Hazard a guess I guess it's probably just a lack of empathy? Or maybe that's not quite the correct word but inability to put yourself in another's place. They can't Envision someone not having knowledge that they have unless that person is stupid.

  • You know it's funny I actually find that I like the esoteric Flags more . They just stick in my head as unique and I'm never wondering whether I do update or upgrade or anything else that might sound right. It's Syu, always has been :)

  • Sounds more likely that AUR fucked you. Which isn't pacman. I've often found people who hate "pacman" usually just hosed their system with the AUR

  • Pacman is the best for the simple fact that it's simple. APT, DNF etc get into the weeds with complex scripts trying to update databases and other nonsense that has caused apt/dpkg to obliterate systems for me too often (over like 10 years)

    but pacman is about as close as possible to "unzip in place and go home" I've never had the actual pacman itself break a system. And the only broken update I've had is the stupid grub one which I solved by switching to systemdboot. On top of that even IF you somehow obliterated an arch system it's trivial to chroot in, use a statically built pacman, then reinstall all system packages with a single command.

    I unironically use arch in critical production systems as i genuinely find it to be more reliable. Slap on some filesystem snapshots as a just in case for any bugs from updates (never had to use) and I have a system that is so much easier to use and i feel more confident doing updates

  • Anyone who genuinely thought that privacy was going to be perfect was an idiot. But they're going to be better than Gmail and they are. The only way to achieve any type of true privacy would be to start up your own Data Center , run your own email , and then be the one that's dealing with the government knocking on your door. Have fun with that.

    Put frankly privacy on the internet does not exist and anyone that thinks it's achievable on the modern internet is honestly an idiot. We can only select the least shitty option there is no good option. And the problem is even that is a moving Target I'm not going to keep changing my email provider every couple years to whatever the new current popular privacy option is.
