How is that different to before the 1800?

- Comment on Anybody from Asia, typically from South Asia here ? 4 days ago:
No, I just moved here 4 years ago, first a business trip, then I met someone and asked to go on more business trips until I asked them to move me to the Korean office and I me and my now wife moved in together.

Do you mean living in Asia or born and raised? I moved to South Korea 4 years ago.
- Comment on I don't get the love for Nextcloud - alternative for just files? 4 days ago:
Nextcloud it just too heavy I totally agree, and everything feels slow and sluggish.
For just files I use Syncthing and couldn't be happier, it just works in the background without a central server just syncs the files between phones, PCs and laptops by itself. I set it up like 5 years ago when I had enough of Nextcloud and to be honest most of the time I forget that I have it, but I use it every day to sync my password database for KeePassXC, my music, my private and work documents between all my devices.

I think Thore words are not adequate to describe your or my situation.
My main language is English right now because that is what I mostly use. It's my 4th language. I was 11 when I emigrated for the first time and between then and now I had two other main languages.

- Comment on Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish government 2 weeks ago:
Interesting, April 20 is also Hitlers birthday so it has symbolix significance to all the neo nazis.
- Comment on Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish government 2 weeks ago:
But don't all other servers host copies of it? So if a server is hosted in Turkey then they could tell that server to block access to that content a least from Turkey or not?

- Comment on It's used more as a Drinking License than a Drivers License. 2 weeks ago:
Jus Personalauswer, it's ID card. Not everyone has a drivers license, especially in bigger cities many people don't have any.
- Comment on It's used more as a Drinking License than a Drivers License. 2 weeks ago:
Only in the US. In Germany we can drink at 16 but drive at 18.

Why doesn't she just find a US supplier, isn't that the intended outcome of tariffs?
- Comment on Have there been any major changes noticed in countries that have recently split? 2 weeks ago:
Taiwan and China have different writing systems.
South Korea has a huge amount of English words in it's language while North Korea doesn't at all.
- Comment on Peertube video recommendation program 2 weeks ago:
I like the idea, even if it would be 'just' a small scale opt-in peertube search engine which would have better ranking algorythm with help of the data points you mention.
But I guess it would need to be opt-in for channels not for whole instances?
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Not like that!
- Comment on How and where should I keep backups of system configurations? 3 weeks ago:
Most of the time the VPS provider offers some backup solution. It's not only about your configuration files which can easily be recreated, but about all the user data like pictures databases, etc. Which once lost can't be recovered.
Best practice is a 3-2-1 backup: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/the-3-2-1-backup-strategy/
But you could back up your stuff on your laptop if you want, it's not such a bad idea actually. For that you trigger the backup script from your laptop, you can do it automatically there too. This makes sure that the laptop is on while you're doing the backup.
The easiest way is a crown job and a bash file which runs a couple of rsync commands to get specific files and directories from the server via ssh.
A more involved way would be a backup system like restic, which does a lot of things for you but is a bit more involved to set up.

Why hasn't any other country done it?
- Comment on 'Historic moment': South Koreans react to Yoon's dismissal 3 weeks ago:
My wife is in a group chat with other moms who have a foreigner husband. There is one who she calls 'very left leaning' who was cheering for it and there is another one who she says she didn't show her leaning before, but that this one cried today and decided that they can't stay in this country anymore because of how this went.
I'm a bit oblivious but I have also heard from my wife similar things about the Lee guy that he is pro China and pro North Korea, my wife leans to center conservatism.
From what I understand the two party system in Korea is even worse than the one in the US, it's really not about trying to fix the problems which the country really has like the demographics and what follows of them, but instead it's old guys only fighting for power, disregarding most other things.
- Comment on What features are missing from piefed, or, why aren't we reccommending piefed instead of lemmy? 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, we don't have versioning yet because there are so few instances and it's a rolling release so to say. So most people update just every now and then. Most of the admins are in a matrix chanel together also.
- Comment on What features are missing from piefed, or, why aren't we reccommending piefed instead of lemmy? 3 weeks ago:
I've been running my one person instance for 8 month or something ;)
- Comment on What features are missing from piefed, or, why aren't we reccommending piefed instead of lemmy? 3 weeks ago:
I think it's good that PieFed is so small, that means they can move faster and innovate more without fearing that things will break for thousands of people. I think it's good that a project like PieFed can try things and see what works and sticks and this is then a good indicator for projects like Lemmy to copy what is good and leave out what is not good.
