- Comment on I'll take 4 and 8 2 days ago:
Yeah, I also am not confident in my ability to find asd hire a competent person to manage the cars, or the money for that matter.
The 20 million doesn’t even have to be invested until one can look into tax implications because it can just sit still in an account or under a bed; not so much for the cars.

Shouldn’t this be NSFL? It’s that possible to mark it Lemmy?
- Comment on I'll take 4 and 8 4 days ago:
Where the heck would I store five cars worth millions of dollars.
How the hell would I find a buyer who would reliably pay me those millions of dollars without ripping me off or stealing it before I could sell it.
I live in Canada. Those cars would disintegrate before I got them to somewhere capable of storing them.
I would much rather have $20 million now in my account. Even in cash would be manageable.
- Comment on How do I access my services from outside? 1 week ago:
Personally, I use headscale (self-hosted tail scale) that is open to the internet. Then my phone and all other devices use tailscale clients to connect to that. All my other services are accessed through the tailscale madic DNS service.
Nothing except headscale is open to the internet, and I can access anything I need an the server. It also doesn’t just route All traffic through my server, only the stuff to other tailscale nodes.

Not that I know of. I was just going to not install them.
Actually I hear Graphene installation on a Pixel is nearly unbrickable and has a nice user friendly website.
I watched a video of it and was reminded of the old Limera1n/Blackrain/etc IOS jailbreak days. There was one where you just went to a website and swiped to jailbreak then your idevice rebooted and you were jailbroken.
- Comment on Android will become a locked-down platform in 194 day 1 week ago:
Fuck you Google. I won’t do further updates on my Pixel and the moment I run into an issue I’ll move operating systems or phones if required. Half my apps don’t come from Google Play and I don’t want the developers to have to register with Google for anything.

Not true. Alcohol stays in your system for a lot longer.
- Comment on Any way to make nextcloud more like Google Photos? 3 weeks ago:
Week two?
I was able to upload 57k assets via the web browser without much trouble. I just did it in bulk operations or a year or two at a time to prevent the interface framerate from dropping.
I don’t remember this taking me more than a couple days mostly not touching it.

They do look very spacy compared to the other buttons.

Ha. I thought this was from The Onion the first time I scrolled past it. What a hilarious joke. I hope it back fires so people and countries continue moving away from Windows.

Holy crap the mood tracker has scales now? I thought only the other tracker had scales. Cool.

Yeah I’ve been just refusing the prompts and using a standard 2FA code app instead.
- Comment on Sorry Dave, I’m afraid I can’t do that! PCs refuse to shut down after Microsoft patch 1 month ago:
Except that Windows routinely breaks my passkeys :) Use it to login once, works great. Try again the next day, “Something went wrong”. Now I can’t use that 2FA; it never starts working again. Then I have extra steps of trying the passkey, having it fail, logging in on another device, removing the passkey, …
- Comment on Alternatives to syncthing for syncing files with android 1 month ago:
They changed to a random person and gave all abilities to quietly upgrade everyone’s installs to the one maintained by the new random person. Then the new random person disabled things that allowed us to verify the app provided is the same one built from the Github repo. And now the new random person doesn’t communicate well.

I was worried enough about buying a used car in five years, thanks. Nov I have to worry about having the shit infotainment systems that were disappearing on top of having to pay a subscription to release my parking breaks??
- Comment on Why does everyone here think they're autistic or ADHD? The memes all describe normal human foibles. 1 month ago:
Could be that everyone identifies with the same things that the group you’re referring to experiences. But that group often has it much worse than most people. Or that the vocal minority of that group misrepresents the hole.
What you see as “basically normal” is after they are medicated. Isn’t that the point of the medication? Maybe go look at someone who stops taking it for an experiment.

Do you disagree with me thinking it’s silly to through around credentials on the internet or just how I communicated it?
I did edit after posting to tone it down some but perhaps not enough?
- Comment on Dell brings back XPS laptops — ditches the capacitive touch bar, adds 1Hz display option, and upgrades 14 and 16-inch models 1 month ago:
You may be an electro technician but you obviously don’t know what you’re talking about so it’s pretty irrelevant to through around credentials.
Here’s a video of an OLED TV updating in slow motion. The pixels are on in between updates so it really doesn’t matter how fast it’s updating it’s not going to cause headaches or any of the problems that we used to associate with strobing style displays. m.youtube.com/watch?v=54E3uUEryZM
- Comment on Dell brings back XPS laptops — ditches the capacitive touch bar, adds 1Hz display option, and upgrades 14 and 16-inch models 1 month ago:
No, I meant what I said. The article says “hz” and so do other phone manufacturers offering the same feature. It may be marketing wank or technically incorrect but that’s what it’s referred to as.
But, hz of a monitor is not like a car blinker or CRT televisions where it’s off in between the updates. It is on in between the updates, it’s just not the new image. In which case it doesn’t matter how slow your performing the updates because the pixels are just on with a static picture in between the updates.

They might mean down to 1hz like some smart phones do, to save battery.

- Comment on NAS decision paralysis 1 month ago:
TrueNAS supports cloud backups on a schedule to Backblaze; easy to setup, failure alerts. Then with Syncthing or the like you can have a 2nd copy of data on another computer.
I keep anything of importance replicated to most of my devices all the time (photographs are on laptop, server, phone, documents on all three and a media machine encrypted with version history). Then the server does snapshots for easy data recovery back in time, and a cloud backup nightly to Backblaze for off-site-ness.
- Comment on NAS decision paralysis 1 month ago:
HexOS is not cheap, but it’s a nice wrapper around TrueNAS. It supports a simple interface for just enough to cover most simple use cases. Then you can drop into TrueNAS if you want something more advanced.
