Huh wow this has been going for a decade, uses Rust, and is run by the Linux Foundation now? That’s all very hype - seems like they need another couple years, but there is hope! I’m impressed

Lemme apps are better now anyway, and no ads

Yeah it turbo suction vortexes ass and that’s why you never stop doing drugs

Is it possible to run the android app on Linux somehow? Hmm…

This is a false dichotomy, you can fear both death and pain. In this case the quote starts with the premise that you’re dying anyway. A much more interesting question is 100% death by machine gun VS 80% chance of death by stabbing. Would you risk the 20% chance of survival in the face of massive pain and perhaps being crippled? Or would you just take the fast death?

I’d like to think I’d take my chances with living. In which case the fear of death > fear of suffering (with high chance of death)

Separately: dying for a “good cause” is a highly subjective opinion. I wouldn’t do it, except maybe out of pure love for a family member, in that 1/1000000000 hypothetical of taking a bullet. Doesn’t really happen in practice that you get to trade your life for another, they’ll just be shot already by the time you react

Yeah this is why I really like Lemmy. It feels like early Reddit where people are actually worth talking to. People that can change their minds, or learn, or be kind

Maybe it’s an ego trip, but people seem more engaged with what I have to say here. A lot of the time on Reddit, I’ll say something I think is worthwhile, and then just get some random trolls, or a contrarian, or someone not driven by reason to begin with

Like yes the community is small and maybe shrinking atm, but the quality is pretty high. I like the offbeat memes and all the piracy & tech stuff. I like that the admins seem to care. Content actually gets seen since the volume is not too out of control

Idk how long it’s gonna last, but I think Lemmy is the new sweet spot for the social media refugees

Yeah man I agree ketamine makes for boring orgies. Idk why these people insist on it. I’ll be like “okay let’s start washing off all the layers of sunscreen and dust” and the middle aged tech HR with two kids will be like “hold on I have to load my special ketamine bullet (that I purchased in Goa) with my veterinary K that I got from mexico” before doing half a line of coke to balance it out. Calvin Klein they call it

“No worries if I k-hole” she said with a wink before passing the fuck out. Then the main orgy coordinator couldn’t get hard so he makes his wife wear a strap on. Eventually 18 different cops show up because one guy was smoking pot in the back of the circus tent

Well, I’m pretty pissed, and it feels like Google, probably the biggest Internet company, has really gone insane. I mean, a web company stops selling domains? Why? It makes total sense with their Cloud offerings and other stuff like managed Gmail/apps

Anyway I have like a dozen domains there so I’m just going to hang in for the rollover and hopefully I don’t need to do anything. Ultimately, I use this stuff like 2ce a year so it doesn’t really matter who holds the domains for me

Yeah it’s been obvious and foreseeable that normal admins won’t have the bandwidth to handle takedown requests and cp spam attacks. Sadly the only stable state I see for the fediverse is relying on centralized content hosts that can handle those problems. Well, maybe until AI can do it

Yaaay I love running node.js as my backend even though nobody thinks it’s efficient

I manage like 200 servers in Google cloud k8s but I don’t think I’d do that for home use. The core purpose is to manage multiple servers and assign processes between them, auto scaling, cluster internal network - running docker containers for single instance apps for personal use doesn’t require this kind of complexity

My NAS software has a docker thing just built into it. I can upload or specify a package and it just runs it on the local hardware. If you have a Linux shell, I guess all you really have to do is run dockerd to start the daemon, make sure your network config allows connections, and upload your docker containers to it for running

I’m a Joplin contributor and if you think the android app is halfway decent, that’s a win ahahaha. The desktop apps are what makes it a superstar though, with all the plugins and community. The mobile apps have been slowly modernizing but it’s real basic

Really boring article. It takes like 5 pages to get to what it’s tryna say: use CRDT, which is a real time collaborative editing algo, and CRDT is awesome. Problem is internet topologies and all the weird stuff that goes on

Take webrtc, which is exactly meant for p2p data streaming between arbitrary peers. Well, the dirty secret is that for it to work well, you usually need a TURN server, which is a centralized data relay. Unless you’re connecting over local network, the turn server serves to literally send all the webrtc data to the peers

When you think about this some more, many many apps would be worse p2p. Think about anything with a CDN delivering video or files. Obviously you want those videos pre-replicated worldwide so that they can be served asap. Ok so p2p is only for collaboration, fine

Next problem, there’s a good reason we all chose cloud. Even huge corps realized it would save them a ton of money to switch from their expensive private datacenters and staff. They were already paying money to some bomb shelter style server host, now they are just doing it virtually. And your engineers no longer have to drive out to wipe drives or replug wires, it’s all perfectly managed
