  use the fediverse through threads or bluesky

  Bluesky is not part of the fediverse and threads is mostly technically capable to be part of it - it is however blocked from the most other instances.

  Besides the already sketchy AI thing, I wonder why they need to know gender & ethnicity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon questions our energy sector⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  For huge countries as like the US: Maybe. You have enough space to also store the trash somewhere for thousands of years.

  For small countries, like most of Europe, where the population density is way higher: hard pass.

  I prefer this to “sharing the undies with the faculty”.

  But Syncthing Fork is not shut down and is still maintained (never used the main version tbh).

  I’ve used Joplin before which was okay-ish (but worked the e2e encryption during an update).

  Now I would recommend Silverbullet if you are really keen on self hosting a notes app.

  But the notes that work best for me is simply Obsidian + Syncthing (you could self host a syncthing server), thanks to its sheer ability to adapt to nearly any use case thanks to its plugin.

  Lol, that is not realistic for most players. The original 5 million gold was not realistic back then either.

  Time for the EU to rip him a new one :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Server Monitoring software recommendations⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve recently found Beszel and i want to use it to replace my grafana/Prometheus/node exporter stack. It seems to be a rather easy & clean solution. Sure, you can do more with grafana and Prometheus but I can’t be bothered having to learn that, when all I want is some simple monitoring.

  You just have to trust the source. Sometimes that’s easy, like Red Hat, and sometimes that’s hard.

  Explain, please.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What makes it “Legitimate Interest“?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I wish there were more layers who would deal with companies that do this kind of stuff.

  I am confused? The site is still up and running and you can still order though?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Casting Concrete With A 3D-Printed Mould⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The advice on sex toys (not cement!) I’ve read suggests using beeswax. I wonder if this would work as well🤔

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mullvad VPN: Fourth Infrastructure audit completed by Cure53⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Big oof. But if you have a lifetime subscription you can still use them. Just generate/download the configs and don’t use their client.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cloudflare is bad. Youre right.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As it is run by volunteers, they probably want to keep corporate (or domain hoarders) off their platform unless they pay.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cloudflare is bad. Youre right.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Even when you host a HUGE static website (e.g. maps with thousands of image files). You can just throw it on R2 add a few transform rules, point a domain at it, and you are done. Also highlights the usability of Cloudflare compared to other solutions.

  desec.io

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cloudflare is bad. Youre right.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  only free/cheap and usable DNS host

  Check out desec.io als an alternative

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Expanding Materialious to other platforms⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The prospect of an unified frontend for all social media is also kind of appealing, ngl😄

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Expanding Materialious to other platforms⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I like the idea of materialious and am interested in its expansion into other projects (does proxitok even work right now?). But I would prefer it if it was more of a theme for each project instead of a new service, though adding in features aside from theming would probably be harder🤔

  Would love to buy some, but shipping to EU is too expensive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steam :: Introducing Steam Families⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sadly it doesn’t seem to add the possibility of whitelisting/blacklisting games. I do not want to share porn & VAC games, not even with adults, since the bans are shared to the account actually owning the game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linux distro for selfhosting server⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Does someone use nixOS? How does that hold up for this usecase?
