Yeah I have no problem with punching down on people who punch everyone around them
- Comment on Energy drinks 1 week ago:
It’s gross but, unless they evaporated a bunch of the water, it’ll be somewhere in the middle of the most and least energy-filled drink in there when it comes to density.
- Comment on Stop cramming everything onto one Pi: treat your home lab like a tiny ISP - hardware, stack, backups and an update plan 1 week ago:
I’m using 2 old laptops for a Jellyfin server. One runs Jellyfin, Sonarr and Radarr. The other runs Jackett and Transmission. I’m looking to add a third to handle Sonarr and Radarr and let the original one do just Jellyfin.
I have no backups except for the ones Jellyfin, Sonarr, and Radarr create 🤷♂️

Oh I guess we shouldn’t be mean to people who are actively destroying our way of life through their ignorance. Oh ok so sorry.
- Comment on Microsoft's decision to axe Windows 10 is driving Apple PC sales growth — users buy Macs instead of AI PCs despite Microsoft’s push for Copilot+ PCs 3 weeks ago:
The command key is basically the control key in MacOS and most of your basic commands are the same.
- Comment on Trump says a Canadian ad misstated Ronald Reagan’s views on tariffs. Here are the facts and context 4 weeks ago:
It really doesn’t take anything out of context. It’s an excerpt from a 5-minute speech. Here, you can watch it and decide for yourself:
- Comment on Traditions are just a society having OCD 4 weeks ago:
We should do more traditional things… like living life without oil
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 5 weeks ago:
Trump Derangement Syndrome should be when you agree with and defend everything the deranged pedophile says.
- Comment on Is there any way of trying Battlefield 6 without buying it or paying £17 for a 1 month EA Play Pro subscription? 1 month ago:
Get it from the library?
- Comment on Firefox is adding profiles to separate your browsing sessions 1 month ago:
Ohhh ok yeah that makes sense. Now I’m thinking about if I want to use it… hmm
- Comment on Firefox is adding profiles to separate your browsing sessions 1 month ago:
I knew about the containers, which I’ve been using for a long time now. How is this different?
- Comment on Do you think The Boys is an accurate representation if real people had superpowers? 1 month ago:
Well, at first it was Madeline Stilwell and that sweet sweet mommy milk

Ok, then I separate animated and comedy :p

I like Lower Decks, but it’s not old Trek. Strange New Worlds is great, but I’m so tired of prequels and reboots and blah blah blah
- Comment on Trekmovie.com: Scott Bakula-Led ‘Star Trek: United’ Pitch Explores Archer’s Family, Romulan War Aftermath 1 month ago:
New crew. New ship. Post-DS9. Not an animated comedy. That’s all I want.
- Comment on FFS Plex, the server is on my local network 1 month ago:
The web interface is fantastic. I just use a spare laptop with a wireless keyboard and mouse

Get a tape gun. They’re great
- Comment on Sailing the high seas 1 month ago:
They also make you sign in to account on their servers to watch media on your own hardware for some reason, which is why I went with Jellyfin
- Comment on Why do some gamers invert their controls? Scientists now have answers, but they’re not what you think 2 months ago:
StarFox on the Super NES (or maybe N64) had inverted controls that couldn’t be changed. I could never go back after I got used to it.
I just tell people to view it like you’re controlling your neck, not your head. You pull your neck back, your line of sight goes up, you push your neck forward, your line of sight goes down.
- Comment on Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 3x10 "New Life and New Civilizations" 2 months ago:
I didn’t like her becoming the Neo of Star Trek.
If this weren’t an alternate universe, I might be upset about this mindmeld power that Spock forgets about.
- Comment on The Job Market Is HellYoung people are using ChatGPT to write their applications; HR is using AI to read them; no one is getting hired. 2 months ago:
Yeah it’s not completely dead. I work as a freelancer and I haven’t applied for a job in years, yet I have… 8? I don’t even know any more. Most of my work comes from people that say, “hey I know a guy that need someone for such-and-such gig, are you available?”
Although, sometimes they’re all slow and o get an unplanned week off work every now and then. January is usually the worst.
- Comment on Plex got hacked. 2 months ago:
No doubt. Why do you need an account on their servers to use a server on your own hardware? So dumb.
- Comment on Just a little bit more 2 months ago:
Mine was a trailer tire on a triaxle. I still had 11 tires back there, so it was easy to find a safe spot to stop. I got lucky n that way.
- Comment on Just a little bit more 2 months ago:
Yeah they happen with enough regularity that companies aren’t surprised, especially if they have a lot of trucks.
So the smart move as a car-driver is not to linger by the tires ever. Really, just never linger by them.
- Comment on Just a little bit more 2 months ago:
It’s 110-120 for semi trucks. Just a note to not linger by their tires. Blowouts are statistically uncommon, but there’s a lot of trucks out there

Yeah I mean, I get that it’s not all of you. I suppose I don’t make that clear in my first comment though. My bad.

Hey, I’m not making judgements here, but it shouldn’t be surprising that fucking people in animal costumes while railing ketamine and MDMA comes across as weird to some people.
