- Comment on As Microsoft Forces Users to Ditch Windows 10, It Announces That It’s Also Turning Windows 11 into an AI-Controlled Monstrosity 1 week ago:
I’m lucky enough that Linux is one of the half official OS which are allowed and half supported at work.
I’m even more lucky that IT isn’t tech savy enough to be able to do to the Linux installations what they do to Windows and Mac where they preinstalled some rootkits and don’t give you admin rights.
Therefore I’m a Linux enjoyer without involvement of IT. I need to fix all my problems myself and do security and backups myself, but that’s a price I’m more than willing to pay.
- Comment on UK | Sex offenders to be denied parental responsibility for children born of rape 1 week ago:
I’m so used to bad news nowadays that I was confused and was trying to find the catch in the article. But it seems there is none, just a good reasonable decision from what I understand?
Perhaps this should be reposted to uplifting News?

Everybody loses their memories all the time.
You are not your memories, it’s not your memories which define you.

That is interesting, I just checked and your image is indeed hosted by PieFed itself and not by any external service like I assumed that the 3rd party apps would implement as a workaround.
- Comment on PSA: Stop using Imgur for now 3 weeks ago:
I can see it, But in PieFed I can’t upload one.
- Comment on PSA: Stop using Imgur for now 3 weeks ago:
I do, that’s the only one I can remember which I can embed easily here.
What are the alternatives? I wish I could just upload images for comments in PieFed.
- Comment on Best Synology Replacement? 3 weeks ago:
I’m also looking for something like that, I’m afraid of their closed source software. As a workaround right now I’m trying to move everything to some open source stuff which I can run in docker on that hardware.

- Comment on Why can't we have a static vintage web? 3 weeks ago:
It wasn’t better. Static pages are just boring, you read it one time and then that’s it. Not enough people can write plain HTML so it would matter.
The internet today with Lemmy, Mastodon, etc. is way closer to what Tim Berners-Lee imagined that everyone would be a publisher, not only consumer.

From what I gather it is to look more authentic and in the moment, unprepared.

In the last two days every time I read some weird take which logically just doesn’t make sense, on something it’s the same person posting it.
I don’t think this user will get better at posting, probably the easiest way is to block him so they stop waisting my time.

It depends a bit on your operating system and your willingness to tinker a bit.
I myself would ask ChatGPT to create a application for that. - Comment on Oktoberfest! 5 weeks ago:

- Comment on Why do some gamers invert their controls? Scientists now have answers, but they’re not what you think 5 weeks ago:
When I bought my first PC in 2002 I also bought a stylus for it and installed Linux on it. And on Linux GIMP was working with two input devices at the same time, so I put the mouse on the left to switch between tools and the stylus on the right to draw with. After a month or two the stylus broke down and I threw it away, but I didn’t switch the mouse back, instead I still use it with my left hand which is very frustrating for everyone who wants to use my computer.
But because games use wasd, I had to move the mouse to my right hand, so every time I want to play something I have to move the mouse and the mouse pad to the right and then afterwards back to the left. Sometimes I forget to move it back but after some minutes it feels so weird that I realize it and move it back.
Oh one more thing, when I was very little I used to use my left hand to eat, when my grandma saw it she forced my parents to bind my left hand to the chair so I would eat with the right hand, so they did and this is how I became right handed.

I had the problem that peertube redundancy only works on public videos and most of my videos are private. And in my specific case I hosted them in Germany where my server is and because of routing and peering they would always buffer a lot in South Korea where I am so I had to solve it in a creative way, the S3 bucket is one part of my solution, putting it in the right country was another, which I explain in detail here: https://tube.jeena.net/w/uXZN52xsH75LbHWNt8dsLY

I also put the video itself into a S3 bucket, so PeerTube basically only has to show the meta data and the comments from my server, so kind of like what Mastodon or Lemmy/PieFed has to do. I just had a look at the [PeerTube nginx config((https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/develop/support/nginx/peertube) but couldn't see anything there which would do caching, so I assume the app does it's own caching somewhere.
For my website, which is a rails application, I did
proxy_cache_path /var/lib/nginx/cache/jeena.net keys_zone=jeenanet:30m;and then
location @rails { # ... proxy_cache jeenanet; } - Comment on PSA: In case you were experiencing problems with feddit.org, this is because a post from feddit reached the front page of Hacker News. 1 month ago:
I wonder if the caching is not aggressive enough or something.
I had a PeerTube video from my instance on the HN FrontPage last week and the load was minimally higher compared to before or after.
I had several of my blogposts on HN FrontPage in the past. The first time it happened it brought my poor VPS to the Knies, but I learned from it and cached pages with nginx for some minutes and since then never had any problems. Just invalidate the cache when there are changes.
