- Comment on ‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services 2 days ago:
I dont think streams have a future either. Look at the amount of abuse potential by companies and how far enshittification already progressed. If you have prime, you now get ads in prime video. Its disgusting.

Its happening for quite some time now. Recently sony did that on the playstation. Thats why we need to go back to self hosting the files (without drm).

I remember that time. I rented a couple of apple movies when netflix wasnt a thing.
- Comment on ‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services 2 days ago:
Pretty straightforward. You need to host your stuff on your own hardware, ideally. You need good backups. You obviously can pay someone to do it for you but it does add complexity. In any case, streaming services are dead men walking by this point I think.
- Comment on The RTS genre will never be mainstream unless you change it until it's 'no longer the kind of RTS that I want to play,' says Crate Entertainment CEO 3 days ago:
Important addition: the majority of people isnt equipped for this kind of game. Patience and ability to grasp this kind of thing is what makes the computer nerds the computer nerds.
Programming and sysadmin stuff isnt really popular either for that express reason.
- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 3 days ago:
This is market manipulation at its best. The whole board should be jailed for it.
- Comment on Steam is now refunding Ghost of Tsushima for people in affected countries. 4 days ago:
Please make sure that they also refund you the interest on the money. Although preordering games is pretty lame imo, companies should be punished for going back on preorders, better yet have to make it work no holds barred.
- Comment on An Interview With Jack Dorsey 4 days ago:
Jeez that man is so full of it I had to stop reading. The amount of cirlejerking and self congratulation for himself and his buddy elon is disgusting. As if bluesky was anything new. They create their own reality and repeat their lies until they are believed.
- Comment on NYT's new TOS binds you to forced arbitration; opt out within 30 days 4 days ago:
Although I‘m not really happy with the very harsh description but I can understand your frustration. I think „dont look up“ and „idiocracy“ really describe the situation with the majority well.
- Comment on NYT's new TOS binds you to forced arbitration; opt out within 30 days 5 days ago:
Loved your comment. Its actually 1% thats really sick (psychopaths, violent narcissists, etc) that happen to have infiltrated all power structures. These people need to be institutionalized, not worshipped as gods.
I think the number of clueless/careless people is more like 70-80% and we‘re a vocal, fractured minority that doesnt have enough power or unity to influence against the 1%.
- Comment on The only way things can get better is by acknowledging that things aren't as good as they could be 1 week ago:
People will bully and right out assault you for it but yes, thats pretty much my life motto.
Improving things starts with seeing and speaking no matter how many folks really dont want to hear it.
- Comment on Are you ultra woke on purpose? 1 week ago:
I‘m neurodivergent. For me that comes with knowing stuff about it and being open about differences. I dont state my pronouns but I‘m 100% comfortable around people who do.
If that is ultra woke to you, then we dont match.
- Comment on If you have a bank account or a car, you can never use all your money or all your fuel. If you spend all your money or use all your fuel, you will be fucked. 1 week ago:
Sounds like someone with very little life experience. You can absolutely do all these things. You can also give money to a relative or spouse for safekeeping while your account gets drained. Whatever floats your boat. Having a self imposed number from which to not touch your money is your choice and its both fine to do or not to do it. Being condescending about it is the problem.
- Comment on Major privacy question (linux distro) 2 weeks ago:
Debian stable is pretty much a meme since it prioritizes stability over everything else. So you get the oldest kernel and will get the latest features months after every other distro. Since kde has only recently gotten wayland+nvidia support, it is pretty janky on debian stable still. It just makes no sense imo for a desktop pc. Pop is way better.
- Comment on Major privacy question (linux distro) 2 weeks ago:
Although I get the idea, going all in on the privacy would mean you can never log in with a single account you have since they bind it to your ip and you’ve lost. Also using vpns all the time or tor if possible/necessary. Imo, its far too much work to go full paranoia mode.
So I‘m running debian stable with kde (dont do it on nvidia!) and pop os on a laptop. Firefox, adblock plus and pihole do most of the heavy lifting. Gaming, working and other activities on the same machine works well without vms. I do use vms in specific dev Environments though.
For kids, an immutable distro sounds like a great idea. Good luck and have a nice day.
- Comment on HashiCorp joins IBM to accelerate multi-cloud automation 2 weeks ago:
Not at all. Nation sized companies are authoritarian rogue-states which happen to provide a good product. We should treat them as the danger to our planet that they are.
- Comment on How much maintenance do you find your self-hosting involves? 2 weeks ago:
Sometimes its real easy and I‘m taking a month off and nothing breaks. Then I have times where I want to add new services or optimize stuff. This can take forever. Right now I‘m building object storage behind a vpn.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
The people in power can finally kill and maim anyone who could ever oppose them more efficiently! Great! /s
- Comment on HashiCorp joins IBM to accelerate multi-cloud automation 2 weeks ago:
One of the many companies that should definitely be barred from acquiring any more companies and rather be broken up into smaller companies.
- Comment on Selfhosted messenger/community software like discord 3 weeks ago:
Matrix is pretty user friendly imo but you will not get data-gobbler‘s levels of convenience because they have billions to invest in the software, FOSS doesnt. It works out of the box mostly but you as admin need to be quite adept.
- Comment on Wireguard connecting 1:n docker containers for object storage 3 weeks ago:
Since nobody seems to have a solution handy I should share what I learned thus far:
This setup is essentially like the *arr suite and therefore I can use a similar configuration. The docker container of the object storage should be able to use the vpn container as a network device.
I‘m not totally sure how to do it on the other side since the n-containers have two network connections each, vpn and outside world, not to be mixed, for security reasons. Its probably not even a big deal but now its nearly done.
Its not implemented yet so its all theoretical. I might update once its done.

- Comment on Meta closed Threads in Turkey to comply with injunction prohibiting data sharing with Instagram 4 weeks ago:
I think we can do both. Hate the web getting closed up and hate meta at the same time. :D
The interesting part is that meta among other trillion dollar companies is the reason why the web is this much closed up.
- Comment on Meta closed Threads in Turkey to comply with injunction prohibiting data sharing with Instagram 4 weeks ago:
I‘m somewhat waiting for folks to pop up defending meta. Where are all the meta inclusionists and shills?
- Comment on Is there a sort of collection/discussion of the stopkillinggames.com campaign? 4 weeks ago:
There definitely should be. And folks who read this (sadly only those outside the US) should act immediately.

- Comment on Italy considers law against sharenting to protect children's privacy 5 weeks ago:
Thanks for elaborating.
In that case we probably have to agree to disagree. Showing your kid off to the world is bound to have an effect on certain people and these people are there, no matter how much you want big tech and the government to take responsibility.
Do we have suveilance|turbo|latestage capitalism? Absolutely! Do we need to stop that, yes. Does the absence of it make any kind of fame painting a crosshair on your back stop? No. Thats a social phenomenon and irritatingly logical.
And while I do share my experiences with people, I‘m socially literate enough to know what to share and when. Because lemmy is very much the local pub and sharing trauma or triggers in a random environment gets you in all kinds of trouble.
So no, I dont think sharing your kids everything on the internet makes it okay to happen anything bad to you or your kid. The reason I commented was that I got the notion that its regarded as „the parent has done nothing wrong or could have no known better“ which I fully disagree with. Otherwise I have just understood wrongly and/or got triggered by it, which for a change is no big deal in opposition to oversharing the life of a non consenting being.
