    Could "Palm beach Pete" really be you-know-who?

    Jump

  • This is a frequent topic of debate in my house (don’t ask why). On the one hand, it’s almost certainly not him. But — and hear me out — it would be exactly like these dipshits to parade their poster boy around his old stomping grounds with the thinnest possible disguise as a big fuck you to all the non-pedophiles child sex slave traffickers (and their supporters) out there

  • If you’re gonna include lyrics from a Bo Burnham song you need to include the best ones:

    Good girl

    In a straw hat

    With her arms out

    In a corn field

    (spoken) That is a scarecrow

  • The Bet On Juniors Just Got Better

    Jump

  • This is only really true if there will never be a need to really learn the code base — which maybe will be true for most devs, it’s hard to tell. But if not it could leave the majority of juniors with a much shallower understanding of the way things work under the hood.

  • Tell me about the last sandwich you ate.

    Jump

  • “The Gobbler” is a post-Thanksgiving tradition in my family. Get out the ancient, heavy panini press that is probably 80 years old (I could do a core sample of the accumulated grease and count the rings I guess). As you might assume it contains all of the thanksgiving leftovers. This year my sandwich had a bigass brioche bun between which was crammed:

    • turkey
    • stuffing
    • cranberry sauce
    • green beans
    • sweet potatoes
    • swiss and Gouda cheeses
    • chipotle mayo

    Add a little butter on the outside and gingerly apply pressure so it doesn’t come apart. After a few minutes you have a several-inch-thick slab of deliciousness.

    I should have taken a photo because it was a thing of beauty. Maybe next year.

  • Recommendations for an all-SSD home server?

    Jump

  • If I/O speed is important the challenge will be getting lots of nvme slots in a small form factor. Many atx motherboards have bifurcated pci-e slots that can be converted to manage 2 nvme drives at once (in addition to on-board nvme slots) but I don’t know if matx boards do that, so if you wanted 3+ drives that would be the first thing to consider. If you just want a bunch of sata ssds there are more options, but all considerably slower.

  • How much money do you think those generic porn sites that just link to other porn sites make?

    Jump

  • It’s like click-edging.

  • I tried to outsmart the social media algorithm. Here's how it outsmarted me

    Jump

  • Yep, I didn’t know if those were reliable tho or if YouTube had started inserting algorithmic content into playlists yet. And critically, when a playlist ends it should end, not roll right in to other “related” content. And of you’re it’s YouTube-only, so there would be no way to l a playlist that contained other sources.

  • I’m only hearing upsides here.

    Jump

  • Yes, I was thinking something YouTube (or long-form media) specific with the purpose of replacing the YouTube algorithm. So for example maybe someone who loves astronomy puts together a playlist about supernovas that include a video from pbs spacetime, Sabine Hossenfelder and kursgesagt. Then he puts together other playlists. Over time you’d recognize this curator’s name and trust them not to point you to garbage.

  • Maybe it’s time for the return of curated lists. Back in the day (even before the web) there used to be people who organized lists of videos to rent, books to read, etc. why not bring it back in a lemmy channel or some other trusted service. Just curated lists of specific videos.

  • Europeans, how far do you walk for groceries?

    Jump

  • I’m in the US (and in FL no less so it’s routinely 30-38C/80-100F). I moved to my specific house, among other reasons, because it’s about 250M/a quarter mile from a grocery store. I walk there 2x/week and carry back on average about 10kg/20-25 lbs of groceries. Lots of others in my neighborhood do the same, but most of Florida is not built for walking which is incredibly disappointing.

  • How do your toughts work?

  • My brain is like having 100 apps and tabs open and my brain constantly hitting alt-tab some random number of times.

  • For anyone who checks the comments I have a question unrelated to the content - when you see an article like this that you know has incorrect information, do you tend to upvote (to give visibility to the corrected info in the comments) or downvote it (because it’s incorrect in the first place)?
