The irony of visiting an article about an adblocker and seeing a message to disable my adblocker.
- Comment on Reddit in talks to embrace Sam Altman’s iris-scanning Orb to verify users 1 week ago:
I foresee a third wave of redditors coming to Lemmy.
- Comment on Web 3.0 is basically a webring 1 week ago:
The point about decentralization is absolutely the fediverse, however my shower thought is basically the second point, where the hyped technology known as blockchain really is only something old called linked lists, which basically is an object holding a reference to the next object in a chain (linked list) or a reference to the previous and next objects in the chain (double linked list). This is essentially how webrings worked.
- Comment on Study: Remote working benefits fathers while childless men miss sense of community 1 week ago:
Same, but I do have my own community away from work and have always prioritized my friends over co-workers.

Thanks for the suggestion, I’ll have a look at tape again and see where I end up.
- Comment on As you are doing it you never realize 3 weeks ago:
Well, most media is sensitive to one thing or another. I chose discs mostly because of convenience and cost per byte. I also believe I can control temperature and make copies often enough to last.
- Comment on As you are doing it you never realize 3 weeks ago:
Actually about to reverse course on this one. As a data hoarder, bluray as cold storage seem like a sensible solution.

Currently rewriting my homelab into terraform and adding some redundancies using cloud environments, in case of power outages or network issues.
- Comment on Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE 2 months ago:
2 points, but only because we don’t have blockbuster where I’m from, I have rented movies though. I have also never used a check to pay for anything.

- Comment on ‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners 3 months ago:
I think “landlords are trash” is a fitting description regardless of nation.
- Comment on Nokia to deploy the first cellular network on the Moon 3 months ago:
Obviously, otherwise we’d be privateers, which is not even cool.
- Comment on Nokia to deploy the first cellular network on the Moon 3 months ago:
Well, no regulation means we can be space pirates and fuuuuck Google up.
- Comment on Why's everyone freaking out about Firefox Terms of Service? Isn't it Open Source? 3 months ago:
Putting a local LLM into a product that doesn’t need it, just like other businesses do, is just one step too far for me. I hate this AI trend with a passion. Seconded, the pushing AI trend is just off putting and is something that literally no-one asked for. It reminds me of that brief trend of 3D TVs.
- Comment on Is anyone else getting a bit of schadenfreude from the news each day? 3 months ago:
No, I am actually just saddened by it. I know people voted for him and it’s easy to say they deserved it, but the misery caused by his politics goes so profoundly deep into a society that already have so many people struggling, that I just find it depressing.

This needs to be on every wall in every city
- Comment on ‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners 4 months ago:
Tell me about it. My landlord just canceled their website and launched an app instead. Of course the app is completely useless and 90% of the code is probably trackers.

Currently trying to figure out how to create and maintain an internal CA in order to enable pod to pod TLS communication, while using letsencrypt for my public ingresses.
- Comment on It’s Time To Rethink 6G. 4 months ago:
Well they could spend some money on fixing all the fucking
security holesbackdoors that has plagued xG for years, they could increase coverage everywhere, but especially in rural areas, or any other plethora of issues with wireless communication. - Comment on Busses with LED advertising on the side. 4 months ago:
Has anyone else noticed that energy conservation/limiting never seem to apply to advertising?
Consumers are told to limit their use of energy through a whole host of technologies and initiatives, while ads are becoming ever more visible and energy consuming.

FFS, get a fucking grip you ding-dong.

I will be moving my entire homelab to a different country, which currently consist of two kubernetes nodes, a NAS and various home automation devices. I will be scaling down gradually, taking cold storage backups of everything and plan to resurrect everything on new hardware once I have moved.
- Comment on How the Grenfell fire in the UK exposed 'racial capitalism' 7 months ago:
I think the expression ‘no shit, Sherlock’, is a fitting desciption to the conclusion of that inquiry.
We all nothing’s going to happen to the landlord, it will be business as usual, nothing to see here.
- Comment on Google tests showing full recipes right in search results 8 months ago:
I’m sure Google will treat every recipe equal and not promote only sites/creators that offer kickbacks /s
