Thanks man, I’ll probably end up giving that a shot later tonight or tomorrow afternoon then, nothing to lose, and it keeps me from spending money I don’t have on a day off

I used the link listed on the post above, and it brings you to their website. (once.com/campfire) Then I tried to search for an install for Linux and was finding
/bin/bash -c “$(curl -fsSL auth.once.com/install/YOUR_LICENSE_KEY)”
Can you link me to what you found?

Not sure what I’ll use this for yet, but I’m going to see if I can host it tonight I guess. Didn’t have anything else planned

I ran it it remotely logging in from RustDesk. Jellyfin (caddy), Copyparty, and my Pihole all run on that machine and it finished and all continued working after it restarted.
Time estimate: 10 mins
- Comment on Sony is releasing a new PS5 console, but it's a downgrade 3 days ago:
I agree, but being that you can buy a 256gb SSD from Walmart for $17.99, I’d like to see a new complete game purchase at $67.99 that you just plug the SSD into the top of the console and press a button to turn it on. SSD loads and has the entire contents of a completed game without need for internet access. If it doesn’t work, they didn’t ship a complete game and should be liable for refunding/replacing the product you bought from them.
Sure they are sata drives, but you really shouldn’t need something faster to play a game, as everything can go to the consoles RAM/GPU’s memory and then store back to the drives, meaning they could cut internal storage if needed as well. Stick the drives in cases, put on your games rack. Id like it. Maybe I’m not the main demographic though.

- Comment on Big Surprise—Nobody Wants 8K TVs 4 days ago:
There was a while that I exclusively used apps where I could lower the bitrate of music I listened to. Because I’m not rocking crazy good headsets and such for when I needed it, and I really saw to reason to use up larger amounts of data when I was listening to music over the sound of a lawnmower walking around the yard for an hour. If I was going to leave music on and not have wifi, it just didn’t seem worth it.

So they ruled they were a monopoly, but don’t need to be broken up. Then called it a win in the case referenced as the monopolization case.
I’ll have to read through more of the documentation later but that doesn’t sound like a win for anyone, except maybe Alphabet

Would have been nice if they went to Mastodon, but I wouldn’t call them idiots. I don’t use that media format, but if there isn’t a lot of users there, I cant see the service being that useful to the users who do go there. It’s like Lemmy struggles with niches. Not enough people, want to find something or ask someone about something, you’ll hit a wall and find yourself looking for results elsewhere. Someday hopefully, but that movement from Twitter would have been a great time for activity pub to shine if it hadn’t gotten skipped over

Nice, that makes sense. Doesn’t is store more data than just an IMEI number though, like making/model, did you have to spoof that as well or was that easily ignored
- Comment on That one Pokémon 1 week ago:
I was thinking crabs, many are slimy, have legs and have an exoskeleton, but maybe that’s different than a house.

I was going to go with tree, but they obviously overlap. Tree just had the advantage of being alive still. Unless we count roots as legs… shit
- Comment on Google: 'Your $1000 phone needs our permission to install apps now'". Android users are screwed - Louis Rossmann 1 week ago:
That’s interesting. I was just checking to see if Cromite showed up there but couldn’t find it, is there a menu you found yours under outside the update tab? If something as simple as a browser I use is going to be blocked from installs/monitored I can’t see why I’d stay in this ecosystem.

What is blocking it? I haven’t done much research yet but was hoping to find a new OS if this goes through. Wouldn’t it be the same as putting a sim card into a tablet/laptop? Or is there something specific to your country that stands out?

Unlike movies/tv portray it, sex isn’t clean. If people had sex and someone walked in after, the room absolutely will smell like sex as well. PH levels change, sweat is everywhere, and heart rates should very much be elevated unless both parties are extremely fit and are taking things slow. The moments made during sex aren’t movements made when doing daily activities either, so it engages muscles that people wouldn’t normally use, which can cause someone to have to work harder.
At the end of the day, the only reason people don’t view sex as disgusting is because we find pleasures in it. There are fluids leaking from multiple orphaces and being swapped and dripping all over anything you encounter. If someone said they spit, sweat, and bled on your sheets people would say what the fuck, put them in the wash… Yet some people are perfectly fine just going to sleep in it after, which to each their own.
If it’s your first partner, as for the blood… that day will come eventually. Whether it’s I thought my period was over, it hadn’t started yet, or whatever it is. It will end up happening eventually. It isn’t gross, it is just blood but it’s something that all parties should be prepared for if they are mature enough to have sex in my opinion. It will get on both parties, and will get on the sheets. Cold water will get it out of the sheets just like clothing. If you have a good partner you’ll do your own preferences clean up seperate or together throw the sheets in the wash and go on with your night.
Sorry if that’s to much information, I had a couple partners in my 20s who told me they had ex boyfriends that acted like pricks about such, which just tells me they were immature. So I figure it’s best to just have discussions with your partners to avoid any pricks in the world.
Anyways, it’s normal to sweat.

- Comment on Hypothetically, if you have memory problems and need to write down events, is there a system which you can verify that its not tampered with? (Like a digital checksum, but for a journal) 1 week ago:
I remember in college one of my teachers told the class if we were going to be late with our submissions that were do by midnight to submit a corrupted document before midnight. Then when you finished your document to change your bios/system clock to before that time, paste it into a fresh document and save it with the same name. That way when he told you the document was corrupted it wouldn’t be obvious the document was created after the due date.
Can’t remember if I ever ended up having to do that. (You can do it using the touch command in Linux I believe, instead of having to change your clock.). I just remember thinking it was comical that the professor told us to do it.
- Comment on Mastodon says it doesn't 'have the means' to comply with age verification laws 1 week ago:
I give it 2 years till Netflix requires you to have an ID every time you open the app because it has rated R movies.
This is the same principle. The account holder agreement should make the account holder responsible for the use of the service.
The government shouldn’t be parenting our minors, their guardians should be.
Otherswise we should put digital locks on every beer bottle, pack of cigarettes, blunt raps, car door, etc. That requires you to scan your ID before every use.
“Kids shouldn’t be driving cars, it isn’t safe!” Yes, but somehow we have made it 100 years without requiring proof of age/license to start the car.
And the car is far more deadly than them seeing someone naked.
- Comment on The Browser Wasn’t Enough, Google Wants To Control All Your Software 1 week ago:
Makes me curious if they think their monopoly or whatever they were called cases making them split their browser are going to go though. If you are going to have to sell parts of the company, now would be the time to hammer home any last minute bad things that would make the companies more profitable. Shows higher income for the sale, and gets it out of the way so the new purchaser doesn’t look like the ones who did it, but rather the ones who will make announcements on how they will review things to make them better for the user base.
- Comment on The entire Social Security database was uploaded on a random cloud server, Whistle-Blower Says 1 week ago:
I don’t know much about it, but what did they change with the whole Real ID / star on Licenses and such. I believe the purpose was to make it so the IDs were to a minimum standard so they could be accepted in all 50 states. If they all had unique ID numbers (I don’t know that they do) they could have just used those, or expanded on those and already have the ID system in place. To travel to another state and have a valid ID, I believe the cut off date is November of this year. (At least for my State, because my spouse doesn’t drive and her ID she was told would no longer be valid post November if she doesn’t go in and get it done)
- Comment on Mississippi Age Verification Law 1 week ago:
constitution.congress.gov/…/ALDE_00013024/
If you are fined in one state they will ask your state to enforce the penalty and they are usually legally required to do so by the federal government.
The part of Mississippi saying it may have criminal punishments as well may have more leeway, as you won’t get extradited if it isn’t a felony in most states. But we don’t know what the criminal charges would be. At 10,000 per user signed up from their state though, I’d be weary.
Just be careful, I’m just saying it’s risky. I can see them ceasing your assets in another state because it follows the current laws. Otherwise if you found someone guilty in a state court you would just move to another state and be fine, which we know doesn’t work, or people like the my pillow guy would just move out of Minnesota.
- Comment on Mississippi Age Verification Law 1 week ago:
I don’t need to explain anything. If you want to host something with content that is illegal in another state and you choose to not put up any protections to block users from accessing the content in that state, you very well may be sued some day. If you block users from signing up from those states and/or block those IP addresses from accessing your site, you likely would have grounds for it to be dismissed before ever having to do anything. State lines do not protect you against lawsuits.

- Comment on Instagram Caught Hiding Posts That Say "Immigrants Make the Country Great" 2 weeks ago:
Meta is actively pursuing government contracts for uses of its supercomputer it’s putting online next year and it’s AI investments. They are becoming a defense contractor essentially. To acquire contracts during this regime, I’m sure they will give any backdoor and facial recognition assistance the Pentagon asks for.
Being redundant to say this. People are actively posting pictures of themselves, their families, and their locations continuously and sending them to a government defense contractor. Posting their activities, hobbies, who they interact with, their food, et cetera.
If things news companies cared about people’s privacy, they would be broadcasting that on every network warning the population in my opinion.

- Comment on Mississippi Age Verification Law 2 weeks ago:
The way I view it is that Bluesky is a new company that is growing fast, while a site like Pornhub has been around longer and I’m sure has a large legal team that monitors laws all the time. If Pornhub said it was better to cut their losses and see if waiting out and or not seeing a good legal standing to fight with these states, Bluesky likely didn’t have much of a chance.

Sounds like a very rocky situation that it’s best to further discuss with your ex wife.
Everyone’s different but I have never been in a relationship where that would have worked out well, and I’m still on good terms with all my exes. Probably best you either give it a couple more years and just move out when you think the kids are ready, or consider moving out now and figuring out how to sort the kids situation out. If you and your ex wife aren’t on good enough terms to discuss those topics, I doubt living together would work out in a healthy manner for you guys/the kids.
