Seems to me that you are the seething one, not me. Taking a walk might improve your mood.

I hadn’t heard that before, but that is exactly how I also pronounce it 😍
- Comment on FFmpeg moves to Forgejo 1 week ago:
Your assumptions betray you. I speak 4 languages fluently/natively and two-three more poorly. English is not my native language.
This is not about language, but about marketing. Thank you.

Any product name that needs a voice file to explain itself is a bad name 🤦 what were they thinking?
- Comment on YSK There's a campaign to replace the distorted Mercator world map with the fairer Equal-Earth projection 1 week ago:
Yes it’s still quite big, but not nearly as big as Australia (as Mercator would suggest). On a globe it is quite obvious, but who has a globe at home in 2025…
- Comment on GitHub is no longer independent at Microsoft after CEO resignation 1 week ago:
Good point! I wasn’t aware of that.
Im going to remove my Github content and host it just for myself in my own Forgejo at home.
Pity that the world is falling apart in so many ways.

I know that pain, brother. Colemak + 3 languages often plays tricks on my autocorrect.

Use Codeberg, or self-host Forgejo
- Comment on European Commission launching #Wifi4EU initative, 93k high-speed private access points across the EU, free of charge. 2 weeks ago:
They don’t charge roaming, but they are allowed to sell limited-data plans. Those plans are also limited abroad. This is okay.
Sure you can get unlimited plans but they axe extremely expensive and not worth it for normal people. I don’t stream terabytes on my phone. I use my unlimited home DSL for that.

Infinite data is not a thing, especially not outside the home country.

I agree with this thread, but to answer your question I think the point is to tinker with it j “just because”. We’re all in this for fun, not profit.

My old DS916+ is great at the ile services but too weak for computing, so I have a reclaimed business laptop for the services. I could not imagine running anything on the DS.

I agree with your statement and simultaneously find it hilarious thrt it is in response to a comment with an Australian link.

The Voyager client can do that. I use it a lot!
- Comment on When will we have reached enough productivity? 4 weeks ago:
The ceo of the shitty place I work already owns two entire islands in Croatia. Guess what, it’s not enough and he wants to buy a third.
Disgusting.
- Comment on It's rude to show AI output to people 5 weeks ago:
For the longest time, writing was more expensive than reading. If you encountered a body of written text, you could be sure that at the very least, a human spent some time writing it down. The text used to have an innate proof-of-thought, a basic token of humanity.
Now, AI has made text very, very, very cheap. Not only text, in fact. Code, images, video. All kinds of media. We can’t rely on proof-of-thought anymore.
This is what makes AI so insidious. It’s like email spam. It puts the burden on the reader to determine and sort ham from spam.

- Comment on Pi-hole client filtering without DHCP? 5 weeks ago:
Neither my UniFi router/gateway nor the ISP modem offers that.
- Comment on Pi-hole client filtering without DHCP? 5 weeks ago:
Between my network and the ISP modem, I habe a UniFi router. That’s the one I tell to send DNS requests to Pihole.
The only way to get around that is by setting e.g. 1.1.1.1 into the local computer’s network settings. My boys aren’t that tech literate - yet.

Step 1: post title must describe the key question.
Your title is garbage.
- Comment on Pi-hole client filtering without DHCP? 1 month ago:
You are correct - this isn’t a tech issue at its root. But it is one of the arrows in the quiver.

We’re running a grandfathered Google Workspace for the whole family. Parental tools don’t exist in Workspace :'(
- Comment on Pi-hole client filtering without DHCP? 1 month ago:
Adguard has a clumsy text-based block&unblock method, so it’s tedious to do. And given that we all have several devices, I’d have to (un)block a lot. Which is why Pihole seems more useful at the moment.
