  May I interest you in our lord and saviour lichess?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Completely Natural Conversation in the NYC Reddit⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Having just migrated some legacy stuff off CentOS 7, I would rather fly to south africa and give mark shuttleworth a blowjob myself than pay a single cent to redhat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨matrix is cooked⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly, I get why one would be discouraged by signal, but as long as your threat model is not “NSA and mossad have a price on my head”, I think it is still the best non-federated alternative. I’d rather take a flawed messenger with well regarded encryption than a beta version that nobody with time and crypto knowledge ever looked at.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨matrix is cooked⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  modern

  But i also feel like xmpp got feature creeped. Not to long ago, basically every messenger spoke its own subset of xmpp, basically.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Most American headline⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It should be illegal to throw someone else’s property away without their permission, right? I mean, it’s basically theft.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The best analogy is still E-mail. Me@Gmail.com can talk to you@outlook.com, which can talk to employee@random-company.com. Sometimes an email service shuts down - has anyone checked if yahoo still exists?

  So in that case, you have to get a new mail and probably move your important stuff over. It sure sucks, but there is no good way around it, if you want to be able to choose between different services.

  Imagine everyone using only gmail: what if Google decided you smell and they don’t want your business any more? What if Google decided to make every login cost $5? Or that you need to say “I love Coca Cola” to read your mail?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is lemmy so political?!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Same here. If I want to read and argue politics, I click on main. If I want to pass some time and see funny images, I stay on subscribed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨science never ends⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Imagine the Brits actually using spice

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Forbidden Tech⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wouldn’t any repair worker ground anything they work on first, or assume it is live? I am not even a proper electrician, but “short-circuited and grounded, or treat it as live” has been the rule forever.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Techno feudalism, here we come⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It is nice for when you need a quick and dirty little fix that would require you to read a lot of documentation and skim through a lot of jnfo you will never need again. Like converting obsolete config file format #1 to obsolete format #2. Or to summatize documentation in general, although one needs to be careful with hallucinations. Basically, you need a solid understanding already, and can judge if something is plausible or not. Also, if you need standard boilerplate, of course.

  It sucks most when you need any kind of contextual knowledge, obviously. Or need accountability. Or reliable complexity. Or something new and undocumented.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Data centers will look ridiculous with tiny future servers.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Signal integrity will probably be fine, you can always go with optical signalling for the long routes. What would be more of an issue is absurd complexity, latency from one end to the other, that kind of stuff. At some point, just breaking it down into a lot of semi-autonomous nodes in a cluster makes more sense. We kind of already started this with multi-core CPUs (and GPUs are essentially a lot of pretty dumb cores). The currently biggest CPUs all have a lot of cores, for a reason.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Several phone brands rumored to be planning a major shift away from Android⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It runs just fine for me, huh. Certainly not because of lack of google services.

  Maybe graphene is doing some firewall things? KDE Connect needs some ports open (to the local lan) to talk

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Several phone brands rumored to be planning a major shift away from Android⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you have a phone with custom ROM support, pretty easy. I’ve been running LineageOS without GAPPS for like 5 years now. Most stuff just works, but to be fair, I am not using any of the cool kids apps like google pay or android auto.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump, in blue, sleeping at Pope Francis' funeral⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  God exists, and He has a pretty dark humour

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know about their monarchy, and I don’t care. Our 19th century grandparents were too mild on the aristocrats, if you ask me. Abdicate or get the French treatment.

  You should get cash for reasons that are obvious to anyone with two brain cells: if there is a blackout or cyber attack or failure of the internet, you can still pay by cash. The fact that people don’t use cash now is irrelevant. Nobody sits at candlelight listening to a battery powered radio right now either.

  As a fellow pervert, I welcome my swedish siblings.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hello, ladies!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, let’s turn this shipost into a brainstorming session: what would be socially accepted “slutty outfits” for men, both straight and gay?

  I feel like our fashion choices are limited to tank tops, shorts and if you feel fancy, half open shirts.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm Tired of Pretending Tech is Making the World Better⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly? Cool that you are asking, but I just want a coffee, not a conversation.

  Yes, I’m German, how could you tell?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The right person for me deserves better.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly, if you look at the world and go “ah des, majority wiccan”, idk how to help you. Probably by telling you to stop trolling.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That actually sounds quite sane

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So, if you are the hyper-manly chest hair and leather jackets gay, you get drafted?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨horizontal boogie⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What is the ping supposed to be like in mycelial networks? I seem to have congestion issues in mine

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Mine told me to take a shower and put on a clean t-shirt. I cannot say he wasn’t right :)

  But I get what you mean.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I would say that that is a legitimate concern of a parent who wants their child to have a “normal” life. Badly worded, of course.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The internet is bad ux, everybody. There's too many choices.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, but only the social media that paid to be included in the plan in the first place. That just continues monopolies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The internet is bad ux, everybody. There's too many choices.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It is literally a fork of uBO

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A balanced diet is important⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have gotten used to coffee and desert. I am officially an old man now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The first cult is the deepest⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nice. I always found it easiest to follow the authority of people who don’t care about their authority, if that makes sense

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Literally Nineteen Eighty-Four⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I somehow have “spell out if less than 13” burned in my mind from somewhere in middle school. No idea if it is right, but so far it has worked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pick some unrelated lectures, they said.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Scientists want to understand things. Engineers don’t care, as long as it works.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pick some unrelated lectures, they said.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Linear algebra, absolutely. But I kind of hoped to get through my whole degree (mostly EE) without properly knowing statistics. Hah. First I take an elective Intro AI class, and then BioInf. I guess I hate myself.
