- Comment on If you have one, how much do you pay for a domain name? Any cheap registrar recommendations? 15 hours ago:
Cloudflare sells domains at wholesale prices. Domains are not their business model, they want people to be exposed to their services so you might pay for something they do make money on.

How effectively is another story.
- Comment on Immich face recognition is peak 16 hours ago:
I tried telling them they need a minimum pixel percentage so it doesn’t get people 100ft behind the subject or Lego Minifigures, but they told me to just tweak the two settings available or use another model.
- Comment on YSK: 1930s Germany used Jim Crow America as a model, which was a resurgence of Antebellum American racist policies — segregation, imprisonment, enslavement, and homicide. 20 hours ago:
This book touches on it and other caste systems

It’s definitely worth a read.

Ceiling fans
- Comment on Hatred for new accounts on Lemmy is related to people's inability to debate the merit of a post on its own so they engage in ad hominem and strawmen fallacies to weaponize their weak arguments. 5 days ago:
Go get some therapy from ChatGPT.
- Comment on YSK that no form of United States ID, no matter how valid, guarantees protection when ICE decides you look like an immigrant. 1 week ago:
They have arrest quotas, not identification quotas. They don’t care.
- Comment on ICE arrested a Navajo man and dismissed all the proof he presented of his identity, claiming he faked it and that they'd "get his family next". 1 week ago:
They have arrest quotas, not identification quotas.
- Comment on The Minnesota National Guard is attempting to recruit high school kids by insinuating their parents might be deported if they don't sign up 1 week ago:
They will sign up and their parents will be targeted for deportation.
- Comment on YSK a US passport card costs $30 and is definitive proof of citizenship. It fits in your wallet like a credit card. 1 week ago:
You should know that you are not required to identify yourself to the gestapo. This post is in un-American.
The way to combat these idiots is everyone refusing to show identification .

- Comment on Discontinuing the Teensy at Adafruit 1 week ago:
People other than Prusa are still using that overpriced MCU?
- Comment on You could convince evangelicals that AI is bad by saying it's converting children to satanism or making them gay 1 week ago:
But the people telling them how to think or feel want it and have a way better budget than you.
- Comment on LLMs are already doing fascists a favor by ensuring that anything that is reasonably eloquently formulated on social media is automatically suspected of having been written by LLMs. 1 week ago:
Eloquent my ass. There’s nothing eloquent about the text output of an LLM. Verbose maybe, overly verbose.
- Comment on CES 2026: Meet Tiiny AI, a pocket-sized AI supercomputer 1 week ago:
Seeing all the CES coverage and the fact that Micron had a booth there makes me wonder how many products shown off will never launch because they have no market with current memory prices.
- Comment on Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos and Sam Altman among billionaires investing in 'Freedom City' to be built on Greenland 1 week ago:
This is why being a philanthropist doesn’t reform a billionaire. They’re making decisions for the rest of us using our money.
- Comment on Should AI Agents Be Classified As People? 1 week ago:
Should the shit I took this morning be classified as a person?
- Comment on After RAM and SSDs, PSUs and CPU coolers are next in line for price hikes 1 week ago:
But eventually you won’t have a choice. They will make they hardware entirely unaffordable.
- Comment on Cheapest way to back up a *lot* of data? 1 week ago:
I suggest making a script that uses existing software to extract the dubbed audio and then backing that up and l leaving the high quality video to the Web to backup.
I know it’s less than ideal but you can automate both extracting it and muxing it back in. It may take some effort to setup, but it’s well worth the huge recurring costs incurred from backing up that amount of data.
Just an idea to consider.
- Comment on After RAM and SSDs, PSUs and CPU coolers are next in line for price hikes 1 week ago:
More like you’ll access better hardware over the web with a subscription fee.
- Comment on After RAM and SSDs, PSUs and CPU coolers are next in line for price hikes 1 week ago:
Are you all ready for subscription based PCs? Because they are going to make sure that’s the only way you can afford decent hardware.
- Comment on Cheapest way to back up a *lot* of data? 1 week ago:
It’s literally downloading the same amount of data you would be backing up, and you won’t be charged hourly for downloading it from the internet as opposed to a large storage service.
- Comment on Cheapest way to back up a *lot* of data? 1 week ago:
I have 56TB of storage and the majority of that is definitely downloaded media. They call us data hoarders for a reason.
- Comment on Cheapest way to back up a *lot* of data? 1 week ago:
If you back up the modern day Arrs databases then it’s essentially the same thing and already built into the software that will redownload them for you. That’s my solution. I backup my backups of those, of my home assistant, my Immich library, my Nextcloud, etc… Pirated media is, for the most part, out there backed up on several places already.
- Comment on Cheapest way to back up a *lot* of data? 1 week ago:
How much of that 50 terabytes is media downloaded from the Internet? Because the cheapest way would be to trust that it’s already backed up on the Internet and then use one of the usual services like B2 by Backblaze or Storagebox by Hetzner to back the rest of it up.
- Comment on If Luigi Mangione is considered a "hero", then Punisher, Dexter Morgan and Jigsaw should be considered "heroes" too. 2 weeks ago:
You know who else idolizes the Punisher? Cops.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
A non-hacky solution would be to buy a cheap used mini-pc with an HDMI output. eBay is flush with ones from businesses. You don’t need a ton of horsepower for Google slides. Just make sure the PC is complete and working so you don’t have to buy additional parts. If you can prep a raspberry pi for a Linux install you can do the same with a mini-pc and get more performance for less money.
- Comment on Gen Z’s Tony Hawk is Tony Hawk 2 weeks ago:
You’re right, tactics is accusatory when it shouldn’t be. There’s no evidence of motive or intent. Let’s call it “your logic” instead.
- Comment on Gen Z’s Tony Hawk is Tony Hawk 2 weeks ago:
Nobody was calling you a racist but if it’s that upsetting that someone pointed out that your tactics are similar that’s on you.
- Comment on Gen Z’s Tony Hawk is Tony Hawk 2 weeks ago:
It’s not that Tony Hawk is that much more popular it’s that nobody gives a shit about the extreme sport fad anymore. That died in the 90s along with Gen X’s political ambitions.
