Man, I know that feeling. One thing that helped me better deal with issues like this, was to have a changelog. Basically I write down what a setting was, what I changed it to and a reason. If something goes wrong, I can at least undo what changes I’ve made and see if it helps. It’s not perfect, but it might shave some hours off a RCA.

Ah yes, telling the customer they’re wrong or stupid, that will work out well.
- Comment on Android will let ‘experienced users’ sideload unverified apps as Google makes case for verification 1 week ago:
My guess would be a new setting in developer options.
- Comment on Is self-hosting becoming too gatekept by power users? 1 week ago:
Absolutely agree. I have been thinking of starting a selfhost guide that takes you through the different ways to selfhost and the basic concepts of it, but gave up because I’m a shit writer and my experiences are mostly docker, k8s and Terraform/OpenTofu.

Then it’s absolutely on fucking point!

How would this help? If the USB socket in the laptop is upside down, the angle would point downwards, making it impossible to put anything in it, and even if it were angled sideways, along the laptop, it is still an adapter to solve a problem, that should never have been an issue to begin with.
- Comment on Chaotic Evil 2 weeks ago:
Sigh, the fact that this even exists make me sad.
- Comment on Chaotic Evil 2 weeks ago:
My favorite is when laptops mount their USB ports upside down and I have to lift the laptop for my interactive peripherals.
- Comment on how do you explain selfhosting to the non-techies in your life? 3 weeks ago:
This is the same strategy I use with my family as well, I refer to a service they know and then tell them it’s in our house.
- Comment on Self hosting Sunday! What's up, selfhosters?s 3 weeks ago:
Sunday is upgrade day, meaning I will update the OS on my servers and then update all my helm charts.
- Comment on Which game would you erase from your memory, in order to experience it fresh once again? 5 weeks ago:
Monkey island, Myst, Riven and Heavy rain.
- Comment on Russia warns West as Ukraine secures Patriot defenses 1 month ago:
I don’t see this as a problem since they claim the drones are not Russian. Shoot them down and if Russia complains, they’re admitting they started the provocation.
- Comment on What’s the plan? 2 months ago:
Absolutely correct, but my counter argument would be to ask if that would be considered living or just breathing until you stop?
- Comment on Harvard dropouts to launch ‘always on’ AI smart glasses that listen and record every conversation 2 months ago:
Now would be the time for a scramble suit startup.
- Comment on What’s the plan? 2 months ago:
My deeply held belief is that living demands courage.

You could just tell them your social capital is spent and leave.

Thanks for this! Watiko look like an interesting rabbit hole to explore.
- Comment on A Developer Built A Real-World Ad Blocker For Snap Spectacles 4 months ago:
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 5 months ago:
I foresee a third wave of redditors coming to Lemmy.
- Comment on Web 3.0 is basically a webring 5 months 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 5 months 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 5 months 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 5 months ago:
Actually about to reverse course on this one. As a data hoarder, bluray as cold storage seem like a sensible solution.
- Comment on What's up, selfhosters? It's selfhosting Sunday again! 6 months ago:
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 7 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.
