  • That sounds like terrible reliability. If my home lab had an outage like that I would shut it down as I clearly don't know how to run a dependable system. 😅

  • I'm Gen X. ¯(ツ)

  • I think that's fair. My hope is that we can encourage class traitors to come over to our side, rather than be angry at them.

  • Please don't buy any propaganda from the capital class that attempts to divide the working classes. We have more in common with our grandparents than with the billionaires oppressing us.

  • I don't know of any resolvers that simply fail after not getting responses from a single name server. Please name and shame!

  • Precedent that laws don't apply to billionaires.

  • I use restic to:

    1. A Raspberry Pi with an external 4 TB SSD at a friend's house a few hours drive away
    2. Jottacloud
  • Look, I get it. We've been fed a story about individual responsibility for generations. It's hard to break free from that mindset.

    I experience this myself when I see cigarette butts on the side of the path when walking my dog. "Fucking smokers!" is my first reaction. But then I remember that people who smoke are suffering from an addiction they were tricked into and the only thing they get out of smoking is poverty, sickness, and possibly death. On the other hand, the immoral corporations who sold them the cigarette butt lying on the ground have made a tidy profit of the smoker, as well as the trash that the company generated.

  • You make it seem like these desires arise spontaneously. Corporations have been using advertising in a systematic way since the 20th century to induce demand and shift behavior patterns of the masses.

    With your logic, all business decisions can be laid at the feet of common people. "Yes, shrinkflation exists and is terrible, but it is for ordinary people, so they are to blame." "Sure, companies sell bullshit insurance to consumers, but the people buy it, so it's really the masses who cause it." And so on.

  • My wife is ADHD and cannot stop herself from chewing through an entire box of gum if she buys one, then spends the evening moaning in pain on the toilet. 😬

  • Even more boring than Deep Sleep: 9?! Amazing. 😉

  • I was surprised to learn this summer that birch trees can have short lifespans. Paper birch might only live like 30 to 40 years when grown as a crop.

  • Found the augment!

  • I guess Visual Studio is not VS Code? (I don't use Windows, but do use Visual Studio Code at work.)

  • Yeah. I found this very classy. "Your interpretation is cool. Here is mine!"

  • What do you mean to say? It's not clear to me.

  • We don't use any parental controls. Our kids have always been very trustworthy. I disabled all Google parental spying and blocking for my son as soon as the age limitations would allow it. (My stepdaughter was under the thumb of her father's monitoring for a long time. She had to face his wrath when she turned off location sharing with him on her iPhone... her second year of college.)

    We had to brow-beat my son into getting a WhatsApp account so he could chat with his classmates (his actual friends use Signal, but WhatsApp is what group chats mostly use in Holland). 😅
