Discs**

Disks continue to be the most efficient way to store bonkers amounts of data.

Disks refers to magnetic storage or solid state flash storage.

Discs refers to optical media.

While optical is still king for physical distribution of media to the masses due to its low cost of production, the rise of streaming will certainly be the thing that rips physical ownership from the hands of the people.

Dont stop buying DVDs or Blurays

I don't mean to naysay but this isn't reduced civil rights people are fleeing. The US is building concentration camps and has recently approved expanding their budget for ICE (originally immigration enforcement, now a gestapo analogue) such that it is larger than most world militaries.

This is naziism people are fleeing. This is death camps people are fleeing.

Thank 🫡💛

Ok so I normally don't post AI slop but a while back I was selfhosting an image generation model and a friends and I were fucking around trying to make super high quality furry porn (I promise this is SFW) and ended up with basically the dude in this meme on a horse treking through the desert and he was so handsome. Anyway I wanted to share the image so I'm gonna go dig it out of my harddrive.

Sorry anyone reading this before I've edited the comment, I needed a placeholder or I'd forget what I was doing 😅

Edit: I found it in a photo I took with my phone

Ugh just look at that handsome man!

Anyway sorry for clogging up the feed with nonsense the meme made me wanna share. Please don't hate me kthxbaiiii

The will repair it with flex seal of course

Note to self - automotive mechanics may be lemurs, High voltage electricians certainly are

Like fig newtons and oak, with a hint of grandpas shoepolish 🥰

I use an 8 cup saucepan with a splash of avocado oil. After popping I cover it in melted garlic butter with parmesan and nooch

It's not that dark. If mushrooms helped you realize you don't wanna be married to a person you should divorce them. Why spend time with someone you don't want to be with?

There is this belief for some reason that divorce is like the end of the world and a giant nightmare but like, I've done it, its not hard stuff and as long as you and your (soon to be) ex-partner aren't assholes then the hardest thing is gonna be making your schedules line up.

Like Yeah it's devastating to lose a built in best friend, but also you gotta live your truth

Anyways don't jump on mushroom thoughts immediately, let them settle and ferment for a bit before you follow them.

I had to convert from Common to Freedom for this one. Are y'all ok over there? I'm used to that kind of heat here in the desert but goodness I couldn't imagine 115f near the coast y'all must be dying 😬

I'm not sure whay the OS you use is, but on linux (debian based) they have a Curl installer that installs their Systemd service preconfigured for your account and the specific tunnel you're using.

Once that is installed, configuration is pretty easy. Inside their ZeroTrust portal, you will find the options to configure ports.

Always point your tunnel to https://localhost:port or http://localhost:port. You can get a TLS cert from lets-encrypt for your first one. New certifications are issued by cloudflare's partners regularly to prevent expiration. I think I have like 3 for my domain now? 1 from Lets-Encrypt and a couple from Google.

This could be totally unrelated, but when I first configured my domain, I used DuckDNS as my DNS registrar so I could do everything over wireguard. That's is still set up and in Cloudflare I still have duckdns included in my DNS registry. Could he worth a shot to set that up and add it to your DNS registry on cloudflare.

I use a cloudflare tunnel, ISP won't give me a static IP and I wanna keep my firewall locked down tight.

Just a comment, you've said "Polygamous" where the correct word is "Polyamorous". They are not the same. Polygamy is marriage of multiple partners, often in "sister-wives" situations and often related to patrocentric power expectations in certain smaller religious instituions and cults. Polyamory is a romantic orientation allowing for multiple romantic or sexual partners. While the type of polycule a polyamorous person engages in will vary from person to person, the harem of wives thing doesn't really happen in polyamorous circles.

Years ago I purchased a Fossil Explorist Q wearable smartwatch. The first software update, about a month after I bought it, turned the device from a functional smartwatch into a brick that was so slow it was nearly nonfunctional.

The device was not powerful enough to run all the spyware they tried to pack into that update, turning it into an on wrist heater, occasionally getting Hot enough to burn me.

I've never seen a device so thoroughly destroyed by enshittification so quickly. That's experience turned me off of wearables forever. Maybe I'll make my own someday. Maybe I'll get a Pebble now that they're back-ish. I'll never get anything with wearOS on it again. Hell after the last year I might never get something with Android/iOS again either.

A STRANGE GAME. THE ONLY WINNING MOVE IS NOT TO PLAY.. ... HOW ABOUT A NICE GAME OF CHESS?

Never talked shit about about Chris, love the guy, but its absolutely true that he partakes in the same clickbaity tendencies that lead us to this problem in the first place.

Downvoting requires you: A. Click into the video
B. Select the downvote button, thereby engaging with the video

The algorithm is not designed to feed you content you like, only content that will generate clicks and interaction. The only way to eliminate that content from your feed is to forcibly remove it, as they have designed the feed such that it is impossible not to interact with it.

Again, I suggest trying freetube as a frontend, as it allows you to retitle and rethumbnail clickbait videos, and remove shorts from your feeds, thereby eliminating the skinner box that is youtube from your life.

I run a couple of services. A blog for my partner, a media server (farfetched but certainly possible in 1995), as well as a matrix server.

I'm certain I'd be doing similar things in 1995. Based on my personality there's no way I wouldn't have gotten into that type of computing.

Assuming I'm the same age I am today, probably the same thing 😅

Wake up, morning constitutional, coffee, bong-rip, check the server.

Youtube shorts.

Imagine you're a gamer, one who is interested in game Design. Your view history has games, gaming, game design, but it's also full of algotrash talking heads, scam baiters, shit slingers. You open the YouTube app on your phone, and it immediately opens to shorts, you don't remember settings that as the default but it's fine, you recognize the creator and the 45 second clip was neat. Swipe up. Next video, it Nile Blue dropping a beaker of chloroauric acid. Next video, its Chris Boden yelling about some kind of electrical infrastructure you don't understand (and that's pretty cool). Next video, Thor, speaking softly, explaining an aspect of game design that you never thought of. This one catches your attention, its in your wheelhouse, its something you're genuinely interested in. You click the profile, swipe through a few more shorts. Your algorithm is permanently damaged. Your a pirate software fan now, whether you like it or not.

Or you can use freetube and never see algotrash talking heads in your feed and never enter into this cycle.
