  And thus the reason we don’t have flying cars. That was two. Imagine the flaming hell that would be raining down if we had commute traffic numbers in the sky.

  Sounds like a flock of shit to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit is dropping subscriber counts on subreddits: Users will now see seven-day metrics that track active visitors and contributions instead.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They don’t have users on Reddit. They have metrics generating units.

  Been using DAVx5 on Android with it (you don’t set it up as a full account, just a WebDAV mount) and the full exported filesystem shows up in the android file browser (as a remote mount like google drive)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨introducing copyparty, the FOSS file server⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Well done! This is exactly what I’ve been looking for! And it’s fun to use and has an aesthetic that reminds me of browsing ftp servers back in the day. And these themes?! I love the whimsy mixed with actual usability.

  And its a damn good file server so far: fast, easy to use, makes reasonable security choices, and accessible in the ways I want (rclone mount)

  And yet the cost of BitTorrent and the *arr suite has stayed the same.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit users in the UK must now upload selfies to access NSFW subreddits⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s to stop uploading a random picture of a person? Or even an AI generated person? I get what they’re trying to do, but seems like legislative theater more than anything.

  I see Mr. Musk has started using intracerebrally.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What would happen if Punxsutawney Phil comes out, and immediately dies?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Bill Murray would become stuck in time, forced to relive the same day for what could be decades or centuries. Slowly he’d use this time to become a better person, a kinder person, a person capable of both loving and being loved. Ultimately, he’d find reprieve in the arms of his soulmate.

  Phil, the goddamned weather hamster would still have six more weeks of being dead.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How annoying is it to connect to VPN/use Tailscale instead of being able to access the service directly?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Use Tailscale, for the most part it’s pretty transparent. As long as all the magic DNS stuff is setup correctly, I can access all my internal services by name and it just works.
