A replica is not a backup.
- Comment on Tesla accused of union buster bluster at Buffalo factory 10 hours ago:
Business decisions of a tech company are not in and of themselves tech.

They’re not mutually exclusive.
- Comment on Zelda 64: Recompiled for PC - Majora's Mask Release Trailer 1 day ago:
That’s not the fault of OP, that’s Lemmy mangling the preview.
- Comment on Tech workers should shine a light on the industry’s secretive work with the military 1 day ago:
This is the military. You’ll just go straight to federal prison.
- Comment on Move UnRaid from metal to Proxmox 1 day ago:
Maybe not explicitly unsupported, but I think “it interferes with some mechanisms on which we rely” should be more discouraging than a policy statement.

…proxmox.com/…/how-to-use-docker-containers-in-pr…
Second result for “docker on proxmox”.
- Comment on Move UnRaid from metal to Proxmox 1 day ago:
Proxmox doesn’t run docker containers. You can probably install docker to make it run them, but it’s not supported.
I also wouldn’t run unraid on a virtual disk just to provide storage. Personally, I have one almalinux VM running on Proxmox that runs all my containers and has a big virtual disk to store my media.
- Comment on Cyberattack forces major US health care network to divert ambulances from hospitals 1 day ago:
The FBI et al. do try to find the guys. Arrests happen relatively frequently.
But security improvements don’t happen because they cost money, and nobody is making them do it, though this is slowly changing.
- Comment on Traefik conditional certificate for same URL 2 days ago:
So what’s the problem? They’re valid for the same DNS name.
- Comment on Stack Overflow bans users en masse for rebelling against OpenAI partnership — users banned for deleting answers to prevent them being used to train ChatGPT 3 days ago:
Honestly, that wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world.
- Comment on Perfect Dark Reboot Is Allegedly In Bad Shape 3 days ago:
You assume it’s being properly staffed, funded, and managed.

- Comment on Exchange Server Roadmap Update 3 days ago:
Like 90% of the posts here aren’t technology
- Comment on How to opt out of the privacy nightmare that comes with new Hondas 4 days ago:
I’m sure they’ll have a separate government configuration. I’m pretty sure they already do for fleet vehicles.
- Comment on Prime Video subs will soon see ads for Amazon products when they hit pause 4 days ago:
The only reason I don’t is that I can buy a bunch of stuff from Amazon and get it in one or two boxes, instead of a bunch of stuff from all over the country in a bunch of boxes. It’s about saving a little bit of carbon emissions.
Does it make a significant difference? Absolutely not. But it makes me feel better. (Also Amazon packages are more often reusable. The boxes and paper packing are better than eBay bubble envelopes and bubble wrap encased in packing tape.)
- Comment on Microsoft Closes Redfall Developer Arkane Austin, Hi-Fi Rush Developer Tango Gameworks, and More in Devastating Cuts at Bethesda 4 days ago:
Cool but most indie devs don’t have the capital to fund the development. They want to make those games, but they have to partner with publishers so they can afford to buy stuff like food and rent while developing before the make any sales.
- Comment on HDD spins but OS doesnt see mountable disk 5 days ago:
So does the actual block device show up as recognized?
- Comment on Pokémon Go players are altering public map data to catch rare Pokémon 5 days ago:
Niantic is a Google spinoff, and the data they generated for Ingress was used for Google Maps. I’m surprised they don’t have a special deal with Google.
- Comment on Republicans are pulling out all the stops to reverse EV adoption 5 days ago:
Yeah but it’s cheaper to just kill the competition than expand into a whole new sector.
- Comment on That time when Microsoft bought and killed Nokia phone unit 6 days ago:
They gave the Kin phones keyboards. Remember those? Probably not.
- Comment on Is Boeing in big trouble? World's largest aerospace firm faces 10 more whistleblowers after sudden death of two 6 days ago:
Why would you lead with that and then not even use it in your comment?
- Comment on That time when Microsoft bought and killed Nokia phone unit 6 days ago:
And sometimes that’s a bad idea, as seen here. Sometimes you do the same thing but do it better, like Apple and the iPod/iPhone.
- Comment on NASA/JAXA’s XRISM Mission Captures Unmatched Data With Just 36 Pixels 6 days ago:
I don’t know about cooling specifically, but for most space-bound equipment, it’s all about SWaP: space (volume of the equipment on the rocket), weight (more weight means more propellant needed), and power (you only get so many watts out of a given solar panel, and if you want more, go back to step one).
So they presumably found that 6x6 is an acceptable configuration for the available resources.
And that doesn’t even touch on the equipment itself, like _WC did. More pixels means more complexity means more engineering, testing, etc.
- Comment on The Verge shows how Google search is useless 6 days ago:
Well if he announces it, I’m not sure how it’s being sneaky and slipping it in. But either way, what would that achieve?
- Comment on The Verge shows how Google search is useless 6 days ago:
Or ublacklist to block any site: addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/…/ublacklist/
- Comment on The Fediverse has a DDoS problem 6 days ago:
The first server should be the one it was posted to. Then federate the embed just like the post itself.
If a server is malicious, it doesn’t matter if that malice is transmitted in the post or in the embed, it should be defederated just the same.
- Comment on I'm so annoyed that they're calling the new hobbit game 'A The Lord of the Rings Game' 1 week ago:
That would probably be trademark, not copyright.
- Comment on Dynamic DNS vs Dedicated VPN IP 1 week ago:
Safer in terms of what?
If you can’t justify it, then no, save your money.
- Comment on Please Don’t Share Our Links on Mastodon: Here’s Why! | itsfoss.com 1 week ago:
So the preview should be federated as well?
How many requests are we actually talking about here, though? Is that better or worse than everyone clicking the link?
