not going to buy ram ever again?
I mean, it certainly feels like I won’t for at least the rest of this decade. I’m glad when I built my AM4 rig, I splurged a bit for 32 GB. If the market doesn’t doesn’t fix itself, I see myself keeping what I have running for much longer than it should. You know that one older relative that ran windows 95 and AOL well into the Obama administration? That feels like my future tbh at least on the hardware side.
I hope AMD fires up the plant to build 5800x 3D again so I can max out my rig as it stands. My plan for my next build will likely be AM6 or even 7 if I can stretch my current PC for that long, else, i might have to give up on personal computers as a hobby.
I fear the future is getting time on a remote computer at university at best with a terminal again. That environment will be ripe for exploitation and holding people’s data hostage even moreso than the current cloud system.

So long as the GabeCube is at a decent price it is going to be my TV’s media center. My old plan of building a new main rig and repurposing my old rig with an arc B580 upgrade went out the window for my budget when ram prices went through the roof.

- Comment on Looking for a good Lemmy mobile app 4 weeks ago:
I cared enough to change it to have it ask me everytime based on who or where I’m sending it.
I can’t change what other people do, but if you want to bring it up with the dev at !voyagerapp@lemmy.world go for it.
- Comment on Looking for a good Lemmy mobile app 4 weeks ago:
It is related to how sharing links is handled especially in the Fediverse where anything could be on a different server and who you are sending it to could likely be on a different server. Not trying to change your mind about Voyager, but that’s the reason why it is the way it is. It was really aggravating in the early days of the 3rd party app rexodus when opening a link would instead open a web link to said server in a browser instead of in app if you wanted to interact.

I prefer seperate

Yeah, the one that gives a great deal of ways to customize sharing of links for those that aren’t already using Lemmy Redirect.

If this make nextcloud not a fragile house of cards, sign me up
- Comment on Bad experience on selfhosting nextcloud 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, I have a radicale server running, but for ease for everyone to see the calendar, something hosted on the web would be great. It’s such a shame that the most fragile thing in the world is Nextcloud behind a proxy of some sort. My problem is that the Apache container is refusing to communicate with cloudflare tunnel. If I point the tunnel to the AIO master container, it works flawless as far as getting to the container management web page.
- Comment on Bad experience on selfhosting nextcloud 5 weeks ago:
No, I’ve been trying to get my instance working again with cloudflare tunnel. It was working, then broke and their support forums have been useless. I’m currently looking for a solution to have a self hosted calendar that is publicly available via web for people to view.
If anyone has any recommendations, please send them my way.

LEO has meant something since the 1960s. That’s quite a big hill to climb

since LEO already means something pertaining to space, I can’t imagine the SEO is actually going to work.
- Comment on Death of beloved neighborhood cat sparks outrage against robotaxis in San Francisco 1 month ago:
I’d counter that this is common enough and not notable if human does it to an extent that there is no way to quantify cat death rates to driverless cars vs human driven cars. Like when electric car fires were all the news rage, they were so rare it made the news when any other car fire would not.

daft enough to use a free one
C’mon, it’s 4chan we’re talking about here. The gambit runs from “yes, that daft” to “good luck, I’m behind 7 proxies”.

they will be blocked in the UK
This is the only real solution, and it’s a inconvenient one at best to surfers thanks to solutions like VPN.

Apple also sells a physical product in the UK. Microsoft and Apple both sell a virtual service/product in the UK. 4chan only gets revenue from you looking at posters and clicking those posters on their website.
UK can get fucking bent. Come and take it.

Does the UK think they have jurisdiction over my server just because some twat from the UK visits my site? If so, there’s a reason why we fought a war nearly 250 years ago that said that a stupid fucking idea. Colonialism is a dead ideology
- Comment on The Ofcom Tea Party: 4Chan Lawyer publishes Ofcom correspondence, British regulator claims “sovereign immunity” to defend itself – and sovereign powers to regulate foreign companies 2 months ago:
Yeah, I don’t think you really understand how the internet works. Their presence is in the country where their servers are. People from the UK essentially go to another country to visit 4chan. If the UK doesn’t like that the onus should be on them to block that access, but that is also a stupid idea thanks to VPNs.
