  • How often did you actually have to step in?

  • I am just sitting here laughing over the fact that this is the very reason people hated on reddit. When reddit wouldn't allow people to remove their helpful posts when they left, and everyone was outraged. But since we are not reddit here, it is of course a wholly different thing.

    Don't worry, I see my opinion is unpopular, so this is the last I say on this.

  • It is maybe weird but folks should be allowed to delete stuff again. There is no rule against it either. Make it one if it is something that the broader community doesn't like.

    Edit: I don't want to make new replies so I am just editing this in here. I did not say I am ok with people deleting their posts. I found it idiotic when this was done on reddit, and it isn't much better here. But the option is there, so people will use it. Make it a rule it shouldn't be done or move to a platform where it isn't possible, what else do you think you can do about this?

  • If you’ve ever seen a bird masturbate, you absolutely know what that bird is doing.

    Hilarious statement. So if I have never seen a bird masturbate, I would not know what the bird is doing? Wow.

  • Welp, time to do the "previously free and basic feature is now moved into paid plan" dance every few months.

  • Yeah, about a decade back. A friend of my roommate was not very bright. She said stuff like "why would anyone do a PhD, didn't we already research all there is?”.

  • https://github.com/bpatrik/pigallery2 is something I have moved to from Immich, but actually only because Immich didn't let my HDD go to sleep anymore. I do like it though, it is a bit simpler.

  • Who even would anyone want to talk to him? I mean I remember that awful MTv series about the Osbournes like a decade back and Ozzy was not very coherent then, why would anyone want to have a chat with something that resembles that? He was an influential musician, but that doesn't mean he is a wise person to have a chat with.

  • We know. No one has.

  • They all feel with dog

  • Have you mined the minerals though?

    Or to put it in another way "to truly selfhost you need to start by creating the universe".

  • Damn, thats the perfect list of people to screw over with even more elaborate scams.

  • An AI chatbot strictly to look for non-AI music. I don't know what to feel about this.

  • Maybe just a move away from Github? Which would be a positive development.

  • record scratch anyway, this is me, you might wonder how I got into this situation...

  • Glorp. Like, so much glorp. You wouldn't understand.

  • You are probably technically right about rsync, and I had used rdiff-backup for many years actually instead. But I do think there is a different use case for each, depending on what you are backing up.

    E.g. if it is files that change a lot, like documents or other text files. Rdiff-backup will be better, keeping old versions of them automatically ready for restoring.

    But if it concerns backing up music, videos and also images (unless you edit them but then you'd probably save a new file as well), there doesn't seem to be much difference to rsync anymore. Those files do not change, so an incremental backup won't really add any value.

  • Exactly, that is the one thing I hardly ever see mentioned in such threads and legitimately the one I worry about the most. There will always be a way to install apps other than the playstore, but the harder it will be, the less people will bother and the more developers will be forced to go via the appstore anyway.

  • So is this legally different than making a photocopy of your passport? Since that is supposedly not allowed but in the moment you are asked you are obviously going to comply as you really need a place to stay. If it is not I hope this company gets into the legal drama they deserve.
