- Comment on Linkwarden - An open-source collaborative bookmark manager to collect, organize and preserve webpages | August 2024 Update - Added More Translations, Code Refactoring and Optimization and more... 🚀 2 months ago:
I set up LinkWarden about a month ago for the first time and have been enjoying it. Thank you!
I do have some feature requests – is GitHub the best place to submit those?
- Comment on USA'ers of this instance do you think a two woman ticket would give Democrats the white house again? 3 months ago:
Which women? What are their voting records? What experience do they have? Can they work with the other party if they need to? Are they respected by foreign leaders?
If it’s this election, are we sure putting them on the ticket will survive certain legal challenges?
Too many questions without enough answers.
Generally speaking though, no, I don’t think it would happen. I would totally support it, but I think there are too many misogynists out there. On the other hand, I never thought there would be a Black president either.
- Comment on Work from home 4 months ago:
Here they’re pushing the “must be within 60 miles from the office” trope; I bet they’d say to drive in if it’s after hours.
- Comment on Google Promises Unlimited Cloud Storage; Then Cancels Plan; Then Tells Journalist His Life’s Work Will Be Deleted Without Enough Time To Transfer The Data 10 months ago:
I have a problem with Amazon Drive going away for non-photos on December 31st.
For a while, they had unlimited storage and you could use a Linux API to access it – I stored 8TB of data.
Then they set a quota, but for those over quota it was read-only. Oh, and Linux access no longer works.
Now they’ve set a deadline to have everything off by December 31st, but the Windows app still doesn’t work (constantly crashing) and I see no way to get my files.
- Comment on The "i" in Linux and Linus have different pronunciations even when they shouldn't. 11 months ago:
I started back with kernel 0.12 and called it Line-ucks. I still do and people look at me funny, but it’s an old habit and I’m an old dog.
When Linux released his audio file it was already etched into my brain the other way. I do remember being joking that I’m glad his name wasn’t Pinus (like the genus for pine trees) after hearing him say it.
- Comment on Humor is our captcha system to tell a bot from a human in text conversations\*, \*^works ^95% ^of ^times. 11 months ago:
My favorite exchange on ChatGPT (back in March):
**You** Tell me a dad joke. **ChatGPT** Why did the tomato turn red? Because it saw the salad dressing! **You** Can you explain to me why that joke is funny? **ChatGPT** Sure, I'd be happy to explain why that joke is considered funny! The humor in this joke comes from a play on words and a bit of misdirection. The first part of the joke sets up an expectation that there will be a serious or logical explanation for why the tomato turned red. However, the punchline delivers a silly and unexpected answer that has nothing to do with the actual reason for the tomato's color change. The play on words is in the phrase "saw the salad dressing." The word "saw" can be interpreted in two ways: as the past tense of "see" (as in, the tomato observed the dressing) or as a cutting tool (as in, the tomato was physically sliced by the dressing). This creates a bit of confusion and a humorous mental image, which is why the joke is often considered amusing. Additionally, the idea of a tomato being aware of salad dressing is absurd and adds to the silliness of the joke.
We went on a bit further with me pointing out that their murder take was distasteful, and it responded that humor is subjective.
- Comment on Elon Musk wants to merge humans with AI. How many brains will be damaged along the way? 1 year ago:
It’s already been done, and will soon be revealed…
In the middle of his cage match with Mark Zuckerberg, Musk will say “No, I am your father.” After Zuck yells “Noooo!” he’ll follow up with, “Well, just the AI parts.”
- Comment on Do any of you use Raspberry Pi’s ? 1 year ago:
I have one set up as an irrigation controller. I was going to build an OpenStack cluster to test configuration settings on (I run a production cluster at work), but gave up when the supply chain problems happened and prices skyrocketed.
- Comment on X updates its Terms to prohibit crawling/scraping of its data 1 year ago:
I thought this was an article about the X Windows system based on the article. Boy are those two similar.
- Comment on AI researchers claim 93% accuracy in detecting keystrokes over Zoom audio 1 year ago:
Dvorak keyboard mode enabled.
- Comment on The Reddit Protest Is Finally Over. Reddit Won. 1 year ago:
Maybe they ‘won’, but I don’t count a pyrrhic victory as winning. It will take years to recover.
- Comment on Why is Hetzner so stingy with server quotas? 1 year ago:
Thank you. I hadn’t considered the payment part. The cloud system that I manage is in education, so everyone pays in advance.
This makes sense, and I’ll start with a lower number and ask it to go up later. It will take a couple of months to migrate everything from Linode anyhow, so I don’t need them all at once.
- Comment on Why is Hetzner so stingy with server quotas? 1 year ago:
My identity infrastructure alone uses a whole bunch of servers.
There are the three Kerberos servers, the two clusters of multiple LDAP servers behind HAProxy, the rabbitmq servers to pass requests around, the web servers also balanced/HA behind HAProxy… For me, service reliability and security are two of the biggest factors, so I isolate services and use HA when available.
- Comment on Why is Hetzner so stingy with server quotas? 1 year ago:
I told them everything that I wrote here in my original request – I need 25 now, but would like a quota of 50 to maintain elasticity, testing, etc.
They followed up with the request for actual resources needed.
I haven’t answered since then.
