Hope that isn’t coming from personal experience, brother/sister/anything you prefer.
- Comment on It's the truth! 1 week ago:
In Bangla, we call the color peyaji, which is basically “onion-y”. It’s also what we call onion fritters, and they’re absolutely delicious.

What did Margorie Taylor Greene do again?
- Comment on My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories 1 week ago:
Yeah, like I can tell you about our communist history, or our surrealist poetry. But then you’ll call me an extremist, or even worse, a nerd.
So I keep those for when I get drunk and overshare.

We thought we’ll get artificial intelligence, but all we got was organic stupidity.
- Comment on The family name goes first in East Asian names, reflecting the fact that they view family over individual; Whatever the parents' idea of "family" is, triumphs over the children's individuality. 4 weeks ago:
I think you’re reading way too much into it. We Indians (most of us, people in the South often flip it) write our names similar to the west i.e. family name last. But we definitely have a “family first” culture.
- Comment on We're back 4 weeks ago:
I just started reading The God of Small Things. It’s been on my list for a while. But I have to read so much for my work (I’m a math researcher), that I rarely have the energy to read fiction. Thanksgiving break gave me some free days, so I guess it worked out well.
Man, it’s sad to see SDF going down so frequently. Anyone has any recommendations for alts? I just want decent uptime, and lax federation policy. (I like to choose who I block.)
- Comment on Quitting Spotify for Navidrome 4 weeks ago:
Symfonium is great, and in its current state, probably the best Subsonic client for android. (Tempus is good enough for me though.) But best of luck if you ever have a nontrivial issue and ask the dev for help. That’s one abrasive mf. (Just take a look here to see how full of himself they are. I’ve never seen anyone do something like this.)
That said, if it works for your needs, it’s a great app. I won’t judge anyone for using it, but I’m someone who can’t and won’t separate the art from its artist. If that applies to you, you’ve been warned.
- Comment on Quitting Spotify for Navidrome 4 weeks ago:
On Android, you should try out Tempus.
- Comment on Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica 4 weeks ago:
To anyone saying they’re happy since they already have a lifetime Plex pass, do you really think they won’t come for you too?

I’ll ban you, but let me just say this before I do it. Fuck you, and I hope you step on a lego.

Man, I hate that guy’s comments with a passion.

Congrats
- Comment on They say remote working less productive 2 months ago:
No one’s stopping you. It’s only a problem when this is forced on people. Some of us don’t need to go to work to do all of those things.

Does Jellyfin do smart playlists yet?
- Comment on Cooking 😋 2 months ago:
That’s one of the best smells of ever exist. There was a bakery on the way from my home to school. They usually had a fresh batch when I walked to school in the morning, and boy it made me salivate.

Reminds me of this.
- Comment on Dinner is ready! 3 months ago:
That’s kinda against the whole idea though. You can get any cuisine anywhere nowadays.
- Comment on Dinner is ready! 3 months ago:
Easy D for me. Indian, Japanese, Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese. I don’t think I need anything else in life lol. Come to think of it, the only food I’ve had in the last month or so that isn’t from D is pizza, but I can live without pizza.
- Comment on Dinner is ready! 3 months ago:
Afircan food is pretty great. E has parts of Nigeria, Ethiopia, and Egypt. (Those are the ones that I’ve tried. There’s probably more countries with great food there.)
- Comment on Marketing Doesn't Work on Nerds 3 months ago:
Yeah, I was just trying to prove a point that anything that’s a blanket statement saying everyone or no-one does something is invalid, unless it’s a physical constraint. I agree with you that almost everyone is susceptible to propaganda, but to say that no one is immune is simply wrong.
- Comment on Marketing Doesn't Work on Nerds 3 months ago:
That’s propaganda.
- Comment on Marketing Doesn't Work on Nerds 3 months ago:
Maybe some are. You may have fallen for a propaganda here.

It’s so sad that Tarantino is a Zionist pos.
- Comment on It might actually be less than 3 4 months ago:
In my case, I think I matter quite a bit to 6-7 people; and matter somewhat to maybe 6-7 more. I don’t think anyone else would really care. And I’ve learnt to make my peace with it. I used to be the people-pleaser type, but I’ve been happier living on my own terms.
- Comment on Need help with adding drives to a ZFS pool 4 months ago:
I don’t think it’ll be ideal. Converting the mirror to z1 would be a big hassle. I don’t see any migration path where I can safely lose a disk without losing data. Also, if both of the old drives fail, I lose everything.
In any case, I’m perfectly happy with 8TB for now. It’s a doubling of my current capacity, of which I’m only using around 70%. I’ll be fine for quite a few years.
(Also, won’t it be around 12 TB, and not 14.5 TB?) - Submitted 4 months ago to selfhosted@lemmy.world | 6 comments

All the reasons that others mentioned, plus it sound cool.

I’m just waiting for Forgejo federation to be a thing, and some sort of definitive website for discovering projects. Right now, even though I do have my slefhosted forgejo instance, I still need to keep my code on GitHub, or no-one else will ever find it.
