It’s not really difficult but as far as i remember, you have to configure everything yourself, which can be tiring. Depends on your mood though, if you’re into configuring your own linux system, then i guess Arch is perfect for you.

you can’t compress most media files again, they don’t get smaller that way as they’re already compressed. you can’t compress files again, that’s against Shannon Information theory.

First of all, thank you very much for the effort you put in, it really shows.
It really helps seeing usage stats like this, as i’m intending to set up my own instance. Thank you for the insightful information.
- Comment on Does ur instance proxy all media or do u serve the links directly to users? 1 week ago:
I think it depends on the client … you can make the client proxy the images through a tunnel or VPN to hide your IP address, but the network load needs to be on the client; the server cannot simply take that load by default.

no no, in fact i can sell you mine, too, if you want to, for a meager $21 million.
- Comment on Go into debt if you have to 4 weeks ago:
For anyone seriously considering this: don’t.
“The LNG market is set to rapidly grow” is a lie. Economies are shifting away from fossil fuels, and i guess by 2040 no metric ton of fossil fuels will be transported anymore.
This is a waste of money. They just want to get rid of their end-of-use LNG tankers. So they are looking for idiots to buy them.

- Comment on If we eat three meals a day, why do we poop only once? 4 weeks ago:
some people poop 3 times daily, others 3 times a week, both are considered normal.
- Comment on If we eat three meals a day, why do we poop only once? 4 weeks ago:
I would guess (without knowing for sure) that it’s because your body absorbs a part of the food, so you poop out less mass than you eat.
- Comment on Is consciousness dependent on input to the brain? 4 weeks ago:
Well i read somewhere that in absence of signals the brain would just gradually become more sensitive until it even responds to things that aren’t there, basically hallucinating.

- Comment on Facebook and Instagram to Unleash AI-Generated ‘Users’ No One Asked For 4 weeks ago:
yeah, when interacting with a project/tool/website/etc. you need to look at who’s behind it and what are their incentives. For facebook, that’s making money with ads. So they push ads down your throat.
It’s important to have communal, public-benefit organizations behind the tool you use
- Comment on Facebook and Instagram to Unleash AI-Generated ‘Users’ No One Asked For 4 weeks ago:
tbf, most posts on lemmy seem to be political as well.
We’d need to regulate the share of posts of
- politics
- technology
- entertainment
to be further on the side of entertainment and less on the side of politics.

- Comment on Israel must face consequences over Gaza campaign: UN experts 5 weeks ago:
It’s a good article and it’s good that it’s spread.
I have given up hope to see quick improvements to the situation. I guess Israel will face consequences, but only in 20-40 years. Unfortunately.

- Comment on Republicans are pulling out all the stops to reverse EV adoption 8 months ago:
I thought so too, but it doesn’t even make sense, because the only one they’re hurting this way is themselves.
If they don’t adopt EVs, it will be to their disadvantage in the long run.
