Just two great friends!

Oh cool, yeah that’s the post where one of their admins said I was in the proverbial clear after I explained the situation, right before the mod that made that post decided they knew better than the instance admin and instance banned me.
Fun times, thanks for taking the time to search for it.

I got an instance ban: “Stepping in for admins”. The “pedo apologia” was for explaining what Yandre meant.
- Comment on Hexbear has been temporarily defederated - UPDATED now federated 1 month ago:
Also one to jump to conclusions and from what I’ve seen, their mods will do what they want if they think they know better than their admins.
Granted it’s anecdotal, since I blocked them after my ban, but the fact that it happened and never got addressed says all I personally need to know.
- Comment on My houseplants have small dead bugs around them, what are these? 🌿🐜 2 months ago:
Fungal gnats? Absolutely harmful to the plant. They damage roots in their larval state.
- Comment on [Rec] Seeking recommendations for kid friendly anime 2 months ago:
Wasn’t that relationship mostly nixed in the anime in general? I realize the manga heavily implied a relationship (well, implied a physical relationship, the emotional “relationship” was obvious pretty early on) but I thought they mostly just implied an awkward crush in the anime?

Really depends on when it was forked. I believe AI wasn’t used initially.
- Comment on Booklore Alternatives/Forks? 2 months ago:
I’m sitting on calibre web and wondering the same thing. None of the offerings out there seem to be what I want, which is just a nice book download/upload interface that isn’t shit on mobile.

Hell yeah, I’m so looking forward to this.
- Comment on The Beginning After the End Season 2 | Key Visual 2 months ago:
I gotta admit, I enjoyed it. Now, would I prefer a second season of ngnl instead? Absolutely. But then again you gotta remember that promised neverland got an S2 and… well I don’t think I need to say more.
- Comment on The surreal joy of having an overprovisioned homelab (2025) - from Anubis creator 2 months ago:
I have to ask… are you sure it matters? Last time I had this happen the mobo was trying to use extremely incorrect settings by default and causing the ram to be extremely unstable. I had to enable xmp and manually put in the correct settings.

Just read through some of the BookLore stuff and that was a wild ride.

Honestly, you might want to look into proper server hardware. There are many out there that support dozens of drives, assuming you’re willing to go with a blade. Even if you explicitly want a tower, server hardware is where you’re going to get the best support.
You’ll most likely also want to increase the size of your drives. Assuming you’re being smart and utilizing RAID, you’re going to be losing a bunch of that storage.

I know you’re not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but dear god why.
- Comment on What type of computer setup would one need to run ai locally? 3 months ago:
It really comes down to what kind of speed you want. You can run some LLMs on older hardware “just fine” and many models without a dedicated GPU. The problem is that the time taken to generate responses gets to be crazy.
I ran DeepSeek on an old R410 for shits and giggles a while back, and it worked. It just took multiple minutes to actually give me a complete response.

To be fair, any kind of automated system can just break. So many factors come into play. Azure build pipelines for instance just sometimes decide they can’t communicate with their own servers, causing a build failure.

Oh, I legitimately wasn’t aware there was a free tier. I dropped them right around when the Funimation shuffle happened.
- Comment on Crunchyroll & Now Netflix Both Confirm Anime Sub Watchers Are the Minority on Their Platforms 10 months ago:
Yeah, this is a huge factor. Even if they’ve got dubs only a week behind, which was the case for season one of shield hero, I don’t want to sit and not watch the latest episode simply because it’s not dubbed. So subbed is what I went with constantly.
