- Comment on Everyone should have a home server (or a friend that has one) 4 days ago:
Agreed. It’s time my occasional minecraft/PZomboid server got a nextcloud upgrade.
- Comment on Is anyone NOT steaming their Music? 6 days ago:
I ended up writing a super janky python script to play my music from my terminal. All of it is stored locally, including lyrics.
- Comment on 'Windmill': China tests world’s first megawatt-level airship to capture high winds 1 week ago:
Very cool, and definitely worth switching too where it makes sense.
But there is no mention of cost, so it probably won’t be cost competitive with regular wind for a while, which sucks.
But the silver lining is that this is among the first of this type of power generation, and it will only get better and more efficient as the tech is built upon.
- Comment on Samsung phones embedded with 'unremovable' Israeli spyware 1 week ago:
Yeah, I saw that one the other day. Definitely a cool project. I might take a deeper look at it at some point.
- Comment on Samsung phones embedded with 'unremovable' Israeli spyware 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, that’s the more realistic option. Though it would cost several hundred dollars more.

Somebody convince me not to say fuck it and build my own brick of a phone with an rpi5
- Comment on Piss off! 2 weeks ago:
I wonder if the manual piss moving container on the IIS is specialized for the task or something they had to macguiver on the spot and just kinda kept using.
- Comment on Cat soap operas and babies trapped in space: the ‘AI slop’ taking over YouTube 2 weeks ago:
Sorry this took so long to reply to! I was keeping it unread until I could rebuild my homelab server.
All good. I do the exact same thing with keeping things unread.
- Comment on Hosting a WebSite on a Disposable Vape 3 weeks ago:
Hey, we could probably do at least 3 at a time. And cost wise, I think a couple 4x4s, rope, and an angled blade would be far better.

Quick, somebody run the Apollo code off of it and land somebody on the moon

Tbh 720p is good enough

I disagree. I just described heaven. 💦

Best option is to meet her in the middle and eat her out as she sits on the dumpster in the back alley.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 1 month ago:
I’ve seen two sides to it.
Side 1: “boo hoo nobody will fuck me because I don’t think other people should have rights”
Side 2: not having strong friendships/relationships because our society is built around capitalism, cars, and social media (this obviously applies across genders, side therefore is a generalized loneliness epidemic, not a male gendered one)
In my mind only the second side is worth listening to.

In my experience, you have to be incredibly selective with what you watch. The entirety of what I watch on there is makerspace type crafts, and the occasional video game, with ideally the least emotional commentary possible.
- Comment on go to sleep 2 months ago:
I’m on hour 5 of a prod deployment disaster that started at the crack of dawn.
I agree, I need some sleep, and to not be doing this. We were meant to eat fruit out of trees, not debug config diarrhea.

Pepcorn!
- Comment on I totally missed the point when PeerTube got so good 2 months ago:
My experience hasn’t been as smooth. The global search seems dependent on instances, some are better than others. And playback across instances is hit or miss.
With that said, usage entirely local to the instance is flawless and speedy, which is nice.
- Comment on Scientists make game-changing breakthrough that could slash costs of solar panels: 'Has the potential to contribute to the energy transition' 2 months ago:
I wonder if it’s possible to take older panels and apply this technique on a larger scale to upgrade them.
- Comment on the universe about to have a little minty b 2 months ago:
I’ve had a rough week :(
- Comment on the universe about to have a little minty b 2 months ago:
That would require data to be saved.
If any such thing happened, it would be seemless.
- Comment on the universe about to have a little minty b 2 months ago:
Nope
It could have happened a dozen times already.
- Comment on the universe about to have a little minty b 2 months ago:
If your data is in memory only, crashing will revert to the latest save, which could be forever ago.
- Comment on BeyBlades Made Ever More Dangerous With 3D Printing 3 months ago:
Horrifying, I love it.
It could definitely use a cover for the gears though. It’d be kinda gross to get the lube on your hands using this thing.
- Comment on spicy one 3 months ago:
I’m struggling to keep my hype in check. I’ve resolved to the occasional glace at their git log and dev updates channel.
Most of it is pretty slow, but in whole it is exciting.
- Comment on spicy one 3 months ago:
The nostalgia for the Kerbin map is going be crazy if KSA takes off and fills the void for the next decade or so.
- Comment on What's the best way to respond to a family member who says the COVID vaccines are being used to depopulate? 3 months ago:
My mom said basically the same thing, putting a date of 2 years on anyone who got the vaccine. Here we are way past that mark.
She’s still a lunatic, and I’ve been low contact with her for months now.
- Comment on If you were to launch a rocketship parallel to the earth, on wheels, how big would the ramp have to be to get it into space? 3 months ago:
If you’re going fast enough for a ramp to send you into space, you’re already going sufficiently fast to have a set of wings to carry you the majority of the altitude you need to achieve. And at that point, you’re trying to make a SSTO space plane. But those aren’t currently viable with existing technology due to inefficiencies in current rocket designs.
Earth is big, with a very deep gravity well. It’s not well suited for fully self powered space planes.
- Comment on Finland warms up the world’s largest sand battery, and the economics look appealing 3 months ago:
it’s hard to get any cheaper than the crushed soapstone now housed inside an insulated silo in the small town of Pornainen. The soapstone was basically trash — discarded from a Finnish fireplace maker.
Hell yeah. I’m glad that this works with that kind of sand, and is being done without the kind were running out of.
