- Comment on Terrified friends burn to death trapped in Tesla as doors won't open after crash 4 days ago:
With lord Elon presiding over god king trumps “economy”, I wouldn’t count on that. Adding that safe guard measure would cost him too much.
- Comment on Elon's Death Machine (aka Tesla) Mows Down Deer at Full Speed , Keeps Going on "Autopilot" 2 weeks ago:
I don’t keep pictures like that on me, and I don’t feel like doing a google search for you. Travel blue ridge parkway or skyline drive, or any back road in the Appalachians and you will see what happens when a ten point meets metal.
- Comment on Having $270 billion dollars and spending the bulk of your time trying to make more money is like weighing 900 pounds and thinking "ooh, I bet I can get to 1000". 2 weeks ago:
I don’t see why extreme wealth isn’t classified as a mental illness like hoarding.

You have to know what the question is first

Honestly, I’m surprised the car was still in one piece. I’ve seen semi-trucks disintegrate after hitting a dear.
- Comment on Where to start as a beginner 3 weeks ago:
If your main goal is a monero node/mining, start with AMD 3000 series processors, 3700x is a good place to start, and build a used system. If it’s just a node, any SoC will work with enough storage. A few months of a VPS could cost the same as buying your own hardware, that and you own the hardware and data instead of some corporation.
Everything runs in a docker container, so you will probably want to wrap your head around that first thing. Most people start with portainer or dockge for easy docker management and learning with a gui, although learning everything through the command line has its merits as well.
I would get a raspberry pi or an old NUC and just dive right into figuring out how to run the monero node. I believe the monero project maintains docker images. The monero communities are super helpful and nice, and so are the self hosted communities, if you hit a snag or don’t understand something.

Great, now not having your cellphone on you makes you suspicious? Must have your mandatory tracking device on you at all times.
- Comment on Subnautica 2 early access should last "2 to 3 years" - it'll launch with "several biomes" and "some narrative" 4 weeks ago:
This happened with satisfactory for me. By the time it hit 1.0 and my friends had bought it, I already had 1500 hours in it. I’m sure I’ll come back to it in a few years, like factorio, but it still sucks I can’t enjoy it with my friends.

Very good Joshua
- Comment on Social media is becoming infested with climate change denial and misinformation 1 month ago:
There is no difference, flat-earth was the test. It showed that with little effort duping people online is easy because our educational system does not teach critical thinking.

Becoming??? It has been for almost a decade. Anyone else remember the idiocy of flat-earthers??

- Comment on Despite tech-savvy reputation, Gen Z falls behind in keyboard typing skills 2 months ago:
I was a terrible typer as a kid, two finger hunt and pecker. Got a job that necessitated fast typing while listening or reading. I learned how to touch type, or fake it enough, really quick. Humans are adaptable, that’s why we are everywhere, they just need the motivation to learn the skill.

- Comment on How is Lemmy better than Reddit? 2 months ago:
It’s not better, yet. It’s not owned by anyone, except the server owner, you can block any instance you want, join any instance you want and still access the same data. It will be better once it is the knowledge repository that Reddit became before all the “line must go up” entered into it. It’s mainly memes and news, but there are a ton of growing communities that are accruing a wealth of information every day, so I don’t think it will take much longer for it to be better.
- Comment on If you bought a 3D printer for personal use, was it worth it? 2 months ago:
It would be worth it if I had an actual decent printer. As it stands now, I feel like I just wasted money because all I can print small, pla objects, after days of trial and error and adjusting settings. Saving up for a prusa, hopefully will make it worth it.

- Comment on Who started this trend in pop music? 3 months ago:
It’s a remix. They used to be called b-side songs. 19-2000 by gorillas is a good example. I guess with the loss of physical media and everyone streaming, it’s just easier and probably nets more streams by just releasing b-sides a few weeks after the initial release?
- Comment on Using vintage laptops in 2024: How do you make it work? 3 months ago:
Considering it has a pentium, and I have core 2 duos that won’t open some websites, you might run into some issues as well. Can’t fix that, the cpu just doesn’t physically have the instruction set. But other than that, have fun and don’t expect performance greater than a raspberry pi.

- Comment on Pfsense, Opensense and OpenWRT - what's the deal? 3 months ago:
The newer Omada routers are pretty good, and their software is getting better. Personally I use Opnsense on a Chinese fanless router from eBay. Paid for an n100, got an i3-1113 with dual channel memory does everything I need no issue, and it has helped me learn ALOT. However if I had the $200 just laying around today, I would stick with Omada just for simplicity.

- Comment on Report: Resident Evil 7 on iOS has earned Capcom $28,140 since launch 3 months ago:
I get why they did it, but not why they did it with this game. I get they wanted a technical showcase, but, again, why this game? Plenty of other candidates out there would have looked, felt and sold better. Guess Tim Apple has a thing for the series?
