thanks for the clarification! it’s been a bit lol. cant believe I had forgotten about the oz fiasco haha

well, of course it’s a problem. no one here is saying anything otherwise. all we’re talking about here is whether the typical “americans voting for known genocide supporters” applies here. and this is one of the rare cases where no, he genuinely wasn’t that person when he was elected.

of course it’s a problem that we vote for people and people change. in a better world, we’d vote for ideologies, not people, because people change, but you’re arguing up the wrong tree in this particular case. in general, I really do agree with you, but that’s not really applicable here.

the “signs” were signs of him maybe not being as progressive as he claimed. not that he would have a stroke and his (seemingly progressive wife with queer kids) would push him off the deep end.

honestly don’t understand how there’s always someone on this platform that pops up claiming they can see the future (but only in retrospect). I’m gonna take a wild guess and say you don’t live in PA and didn’t vote in that election.

yeah. the dude fetterman was running against was impressively even more of a douche than fetterman is now (doug mastriano dr. oz if I remember the name correctly), so fetterman was very much someone people got excited to vote for. and now he’s often the single vote blocking decent measures. truly a shame all around

I voted for fetterman. it’s easy to say people shouldn’t have voted for him but he legitimately wasn’t like this during the election cycle. it’s not like he was hiding his true self, he had a massive stroke and his wife pushed some crazy rightwing/pro Israel shit while he was recovering and he was never the same.

I mean, yeah, obviously I wish I hadn’t voted for him, but it’s pretty hard to predict a stroke and the effects it has on someone.

not the commenter your responding but yes with proper setup travel is no issue.

I’ve never tried to host in the cloud so I have no input on that, but locally + tailscale is very doable and pretty dead simple to setup and manage.

I would highly recommend the linuxserver.io docker image. with a modern cpu and the docker image, transcoding won’t be too much of an issue with most titles and only one or two users. my server has media only in hevc, so some clients need transcoding. my 3700k is perfectly fine with it.

if you want to expose it to a domain you gotta be a little more careful, reverse proxy + an external auth provider like authentik at minimum is what I would suggest. fail2ban and anubis are also great ideas.

my experience on this app has been way better since I set up an instance block for the tankie triad.

I had a sustainability class where the professor used AI to write the course syllabus, assignments, and feedback. a fucking sustainability class.

I contacted the office of the president about it at my university but nothing ever happened of it. academia in general has gone off the rails with AI recently. I used to assume those with doctorates we’re bright enough to avoid AI but evidently that’s not the case.

yeah same. got banned for a few and decided it was actually quite nice then set up an instance block for .ml.

real leftists aren’t bootlickers for anyone.

honestly if I met my 14 year old self I’d give that kid a hug. they wouldn’t accept it, but wow did they need it. turns out shit does, in fact, get better.

“yes, they intentionally made it so a perfectly capable device can’t build apps for the app store, but that has nothing to do with ewaste!”

no idea why you’ve spent so much time trying to convince people in this thread the behavior that apple has been openly criticized and indeed sued over is somehow ok.

idk. I just graduated college with the laptop I bought in 8th grade. that thing is 9 years old at this point. I paid 550$ after convincing my parents to cover the extra 50$ I didn’t have cause I wanted the 1050ti version. I’m a computer science student and took a few mobile app dev classes. it never gave an issue and is still kicking.

I think for nearly 6 times what I paid in 2017, one should be entitled to use a device for as long as the hardware is able to keep going, regardless of brand. that macbook was hobbled by a companies arbitrary decisions. 7 years is apples typical support length, yes (it’s the same for iOS on iPhones) but the fact is that these devices are still perfectly capable of remaining useful, but apple gladly turns them all into ewaste to get people to buy new ones.

your point of it still being solid if it had Linux is kinda moot. the average user doesn’t know how to install Linux and that’s not what they paid 3000$ for.

…that’s your selling point? this kinda proves my point

this is so close to being self aware lol

if the bottom was “learn from China without imagining it as infallible, while understanding there is nuance and depravity in all political systems” it’d be extremely correct.

sadly the .ml obsession with China does not include nuance. it’s just a “western country bad, therefore China good” thought pattern that y’all seen to be weirdly proud of for having, even though it’s a clear fallacy most of us would have recognized in middle school.

imagine being a fish and some fucker dips into your world from the aether above just to grab a snack

the minute fair phone releases board schematics for the 6 I’ll buy one. they did it with the 5, id love for them to do it with the 6.

if you want sad but unfortunate proof, read about the case of genie. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genie_(feral_child)?wprov=sfla1

the relevant bit here is that when she was taken out of the room she was kept in till age 13, her eyes were literally unable to focus on anything more than 10 feet away (as that was the size of the room she was kept in). imo that shows that being outside where objects tend to be farther away at a young age helps train your eyes to do so in the future.

not diagnosed, but peer reviewed

everyone I know who grew up in that area despises scrapple. I think it’s just PR and tourism keeping it around haha.

yep! I mean soldered ssds are 100% replacable. it sucks and is expensive, but definitely doable with the right tools. but then they pair them with the t2 and underfill them trying to prevent exactly that
