  This is literally one of the least useful comments in this thread. It boils down to “should have made a different decision 30 years ago, you deserve this.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Recommended email providers?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Came here to say this. They even have decently priced “lifetime” accounts. Though that price raises by a reasonable amount every year or so.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What DDNS providers you guys recommend?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  On the off chance you’re facing issues due to CGNAT, you’d likely need to work around it with something like a cloudflare tunnel, or purchasing a cheap VPS and porting all traffic through WireGuard or similar.

  Fuck

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This long-term data storage will last 14 billion years⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You don’t take into account external factors like that. This is like saying “oh your watch battery will last an entire year? What about if I launch it into the sun‽‽”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This long-term data storage will last 14 billion years⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The degradation of materials is pretty well understood. If it’s truly cut from a well known material with zero factors that could effect that degradation, it’s mostly safe to make en educated wish.

  Care to elaborate?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crunchyroll is Officially Ending Its Free Ad-Supported Streaming Service on December 31, 2025⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh, I legitimately wasn’t aware there was a free tier. I dropped them right around when the Funimation shuffle happened.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I admit I’m very out of the loop, but my understanding is that remote access via their servers is the only supported remote viewing solution? Anything else is a “hack” so to speak.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure, apart from charging for remote access.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's the Christmas light video again - 2025 edition⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Bad take in this case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Decreasing Certificate Lifetimes to 45 Days⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, are you intending to retroactively add SSL to every tool implementing SSL in the past few decades?…

  Browsers aren’t the only thing that ingress SSL.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon’s AI ‘Banana Fish’ Dubs Are Hilariously, Inexcusably Bad⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My dude, you’re missing the point. You expect them to give accurate numbers, but aren’t willing to do the same. Double standards are pretty lame.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon’s AI ‘Banana Fish’ Dubs Are Hilariously, Inexcusably Bad⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But it’s simple basic 101 scripting, by your own words. If you expect the other user to do the work for a one off calculation instead of assumptions, I’m sure it should be trivial for you to throw something together?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon’s AI ‘Banana Fish’ Dubs Are Hilariously, Inexcusably Bad⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is basic 101 scripting work that happens

  Cool, so you can share the total runtime?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon’s AI ‘Banana Fish’ Dubs Are Hilariously, Inexcusably Bad⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How is “every anime has one season of 10 episodes running 25 minutes each” an overestimation? I’d call that an underestimation. Yeah, there are anime with much shorter runtimes, but there are also many anime with well over 100 episodes.

  Not to mention, are you really expecting this random person to write an interface for their API to get exact numbers for an off the cuff online discussion?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CopyParty is kind of a great file server⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t HFS still a thing people use? Literally one file, no need for python, no install, just run it and you’ve got an http interface available on your local network to upload/download files to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thieves are starting to steal RAM now that it's as expensive as gold — a memory kit disappears in the snail mail at four in the morning with a bogus signature⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes and no. It’s more that there is a lag time between demand and supply. So the scarcity is “manufactured” but simply because the manufacturer rolled the dice on the demand and lost.

  Keep in mind, many manufacturers aren’t selling for more to stores when this happens, they typically have a contract setting a price.

  Now, can the manufacturer back out of this contract and demand a higher price? It really depends on the contract wording. You can’t really be forced to sell things unless a specific number of items was part of the contract.

  No, now hand it over!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My Happy Marriage (New Anime) Visual⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  New Anime, or new season?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If every video game was to be destroyed but you had the chance to save five games, what would you choose to save?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hey I’m not disagreeing, I just really wish they’d add something fast paced to do between the slow, that would draw me back in. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If every video game was to be destroyed but you had the chance to save five games, what would you choose to save?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree with Elite but I also want to point out it gets real boring in the end unless you enjoy “sitting and waiting simulator.”

  I admittedly for 400+ hours out of it, but that was with VR and family playing alongside. I don’t know that I could ever get back into it these days unless something major changed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, but my point is that it’s a completely separate problem. Think of agentics like powershell applets. They generally only do one thing, but you can chain them together to achieve a larger goal.

  You’re complaining about single applet, or a specific type of applet, while the topic is applets in general.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  To play devils advocate, agentic things wouldn’t necessarily include software development. “Hey siri create me an e-commerce site” isn’t likely to happen for a long while, because like you said it’s a complex thing that doesn’t have clear success measures. But “hey siri get me a restaurant reservation at place, hire a taxi for me to get there, and let Brad know the details” can be broken down into a number of different “simple” things that have simple to define measures of success. Did a reservation get booked? Did we tell Brad the details? etc.

  I promise you, cloudflare is down less often than my self hosted sites. >.>

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rebble · Core Devices Keeps Stealing Our Work⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a weird response. From the sounds of things, Rebble essentially “stole” at least a large number of the apps in question from the original developers, and now claims that data as their own. Going so far as to charging for access. Which makes no sense at all.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam Hardware Announcement⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh, it’s running a whopping 300W power supply. It also seems to be pretty damn tiny.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple Joins Google in Offering Passport-Based Digital ID⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not seeing how this is any different than getting an ID at the DMV… in fact this may be more secure if you can’t just pull the ID up on a locked phone, which would be an improvement.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨God ****** dammit, here we go again⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Just as an example, 1Password has a secondary encryption key that they can’t even recover. If you lose it, you’re fucked. I doubt the chances of that being cracked are any good at all.
