Maybe the maintainer of LemmyNSFW actually meant a different NSFW acronym like “No Shoes For Whales” and was confused about the content they were hosting

Clearly you work for the “big toe stub” industry

How can they benefit from innovation that has been stifled?
If the innovation is a more efficient way to your toe

- Comment on 'I'll believe it when I see it': Windows 11 users are cynical about Microsoft's promises to fix the OS and stop pushing AI 4 weeks ago:
Windows 11 felt like a downgrade before all the AI bs. Microsoft values me more as an advertising opportunity than a customer.

lol, the phone app was called dialler because at the time it didn’t make sense to have a phone app called phone.

Do you work for big-ancient-temples? It sounds like you’re just setting me up so that I end up in a pit of snakes or buried in lava.

- Comment on (TW) Phishing mail in 2026 1 month ago:
That’s actually really clever. Triggering an anger response with an urgency to act will reduce the victim’s critical thinking and make the phishing attack more likely to succeed.

- Comment on ChatGPT fried my drive!? 2 months ago:
How do you have the SAS drive connected to your Mint 22 box (what exact adapter/controller)? Is it going through a real SAS HBA (LSI/Broadcom-style, IT/HBA mode), or through a RAID controller / USB-SAS bridge / “virtual” adapter?
Reason I’m asking: there are basically two connection paths:
- True HBA/passthrough: Linux gets direct SCSI access (you’ll see a /dev/sgX for the disk) and you can usually low-level reformat it back to 512-byte logical blocks (e.g., from 520/528).
- RAID/USB/translation layer: the controller hides or emulates the SCSI commands, so tools like sg_format often can’t issue the low-level format needed to switch the sector size. That might be why the disk is visible in the disks app but not in gparted.
Given the screen shots I believe it’s the later. Can someone smarter than me confirm?
- Comment on ChatGPT fried my drive!? 2 months ago:
USB enclosures for SAS drives are available
- Comment on ChatGPT fried my drive!? 2 months ago:
I’m confident this is recoverable. Can you throw the failing drive into a USB enclosure? It might be easier to reformat the drive in the OS you’re most familiar with.

I sometimes eat raw pasta when I’m cooking pasta and I’m impatiently checking if it’s ready after 2 minutes
- Comment on How to deploy a satellite and what are the costs? 2 months ago:
Check out this project. But your first requirement of a camera pointing to earth isn’t realistic for a small cube satellite.
