Right, like the other person says, Lemmy fundamentally doesn't work like that. IDK what Piefed is. Ironically, in a sense, 4chan was ahead of us by decades.
My mom lived in NYC at the time of the 9/11 attack. She was certainly within 10 km of the WTC but not super close to it. I tried to call her but couldn't get a phone call to NYC through from California. But, I was in online contact with a friend in Canada who was able to get through to my mom and check that she was ok. It was odd.
Very reliable hard drives don't exist whatever the price. You need RAID. But, look at backblaze drive reliability statistics to identify some obvious problem drives to avoid. It would help if you said what you are trying to do with the drives, what capacity you want, etc.
If you look closely, a .epub is just a zip archive of a bunch of very simple html pages. So extracting the zip and viewing the HTML with a browser works fine.
The idea is to develop keen instincts so your code comes out nice on the first try, without needing rewrites. To do that, you have to start out by rewriting a lot. You are after a fluency of style, which is somewhat independent from deep thinking. Compare being a profound musical composer who sweats blood over every note, with being a competent (not necessarily great) improviser who, given any request, can bang out something listenable immediately without too many bum notes, without thinking too hard.
Ideally you want both. Computer science education gives you the profound compositional knowledge. Improvisation needs lots and lots of practice at the basics. So code a lot. It makes everything else easier.
Write code, lots and lots of it. Make it really good, clean code. Rewrite it multiple times if that's what it takes to get it clean. Developing those instincts puts you way ahead of just reading about another damn framework.
