😆 Oops, I suppose I wasn’t actually clear who I was referring to!
- Comment on When you say you don't like linux on Lemmy 1 day ago:
Should be enough to get banned, eh. Good riddance.
- Comment on 2 days ago:
You won’t need to unless you run a server in that case. 👍 But the only condition here was “working with Linux”.
Like I said, I’ve been using Linux at home and for work for over a decade, maybe 15+ years, never once did I need to use rsync or know what it is.
That being said, it was convenient when I used it, but never did I need it.
- Comment on 2 days ago:
Alright. But you don’t need to know rsync. That’s my only point. 👍👍

Better get in there now and add it back to your current account then, this is dirt cheap.
- Comment on 2 days ago:
If you want to use it for backups, there are other solutions, so you still don’t need to use it. You can use something else. That’s my only point. 🤷♂️
- Comment on 2 days ago:
But if you’re working with Linux you’re going to need to know it.
Nope. I never have needed to know it. I only ever used it because I was either curious to know how to use it or because it was more convenient than other solutions. But scp is basically just as convenient.

If not, it goes against everything I thought I understood about Bluetooth 😆 Curious to know how it actually would work.

I’ll keep on trucking on it whenever I get a chance then 😊
- Comment on Briar - secure p2p group communications 3 days ago:
That’s brilliant use, I like it.
So how does it work? Do you just need to “have Bluetooth turned on” and it reaches the recipient, or do you need to connect to each other somehow? Can this work for a group chat with a family, or colleagues on a conference trip perhaps?
- Comment on Briar - secure p2p group communications 3 days ago:
That’s pretty far, that makes it better I guess. Like you could send messages across buildings if you have line of sight e.g. That’s neat.
- Comment on Briar - secure p2p group communications 3 days ago:
But you have to directly connect to other people’s devices via Bluetooth along the way, right? Like a relay race of handing over the message until you either reach a network, or the recipient?

I have been playing it, but I’d obviously rather it not be in Epic, is what I’m saying.
- Comment on Bonfire Social 1.0rc3 release 3 days ago:
Sorry, it’s just that there’s a bad habit going around on Lemmy at large, of lazy copy paste posting of releases of software without any description of what the software is or why the OP thinks this release is of particular interest, or why they think we should care.
- Comment on Bonfire Social 1.0rc3 release 3 days ago:
- What is Bonfire?
- Why is an RC release of interest?
- Comment on Recommendations for the current sale 3 days ago:
Overwhelming
- Comment on Recommendations for the current sale 3 days ago:
Got that for free on Epic. But… Epic.
- Comment on Briar - secure p2p group communications 3 days ago:
Right, but you have to be so close to each other for Bluetooth to work.
- Comment on Briar - secure p2p group communications 3 days ago:
Right, but you have to be so close to each other for Bluetooth to work, so it seems very limited in utility. But of course, data exchange in person would be one thing.
- Comment on Briar - secure p2p group communications 3 days ago:
Messages are only sent when both online though
That’s an entirely different thing, yes. 😄
I’ve always wondered what the utility is in sending messages over Bluetooth. Exchanging data secretly and securely in person, I guess?
- Comment on Briar - secure p2p group communications 4 days ago:
a messenger that can only receive messages when your phone has an internet connection
To be fair, that’s true for most messengers, even ones that do have servers.

This is so succinctly Trump. 😂 Bravo! Really captures the essence in one and a half sentences.

Why did you edit the post? It makes my post look even more foolish LOL.
First you complain, but then you complain again when they correct themselves, because that made you look foolish? Come on bro. Give an inch here.
- Comment on PinePods Release v0.8.0 - "Mobile apps and massive perfomance bumps" 1 week ago:
I down vote everything that is just a link dump with bo description, even if I know what it is.
Stop doing this, OP! This should be a comm rule in every community even tangentially regarding software.
- Comment on PinePods Release v0.8.0 - "Mobile apps and massive perfomance bumps" 1 week ago:
Seconding this. I have taken up the habit of down voting release log dumps. So lazy. This isn’t a release log feed. This is a place to share news in a context, or share projects, if anything similar. But the context is key. “Why should people care about this?” Ask yourself, OPs!
- Comment on FFS Plex, the server is on my local network 1 week ago:
Definitely sounds like a human error, for sure. Somebody messed up during installation/configuration.
- Comment on FFS Plex, the server is on my local network 1 week ago:
Plex does not show me anything but my media at the forefront. 🤷♂️ But it’s slow on my TV.

Lots of families seem to be relocating these days for some reason… Maybe try reaching out there. 👍
