Yes. Why bother sharing if you're not trying to help others?

"Living Witness" might be my all-time favorite Voyager episode for this reason.

I don't remember Zimmerman looking so feminine and classically attractive but if you say so.

Is this using ActivityPub? I notice that the lead dev shares a username with a lemmy.world admin.

EDIT: yes it is I missed that it is already federated with Lemmy instances

I know this is a joke but "Enshittification" requires there to be a monopoly that abuses commercial customers along with users. Linux distros can't really have monopolies since the switching costs are so low.

I tried to find out more about the guy who made it but he hasn't posted to BBS since 2020, has a suspended reddit account, and a deleted Twitter.

I have to imagine someone that trekkish is at least familiar with Our Website so fingers crossed someone might know him because I would totally get one of these too.

But Kirk told the pretty lady they don't

I WANT A REFUND

(And don't' tell me they don't use money in the 23rd century)

”That was my brother’s station, aboard the USS Enterprise.”

I enjoyed how Star Trek Continues did a follow-up episode with Mirror-Spock leading a mutiny

It seems like we agree on the facts, and I certainly won't disagree that it's worse now, but I would characterize Twitter's (pre-Musk) response to extremism as "measured, lacking and lethargic", before I would use "imperfect", which still implies "pretty good" and from my perceptive it was not good enough to make me want to use it. I think maybe we just have a different tolerance for hate speech.

They absolutely were, without question. That said, there's nothing this guy can do to make that happen on Mastodon instances he doesn't own.

You're correct. ActivityPub is an open protocol and Meta, or more importantly anyone else, can use it however they want.

How so?

Ones-for-two more like it

While TrueNAS is great I found it to be significantly more NAS-oriented than a general "home server". It's certainly capable just very into the weeds with permissions, users, groups, etc. It's not very noob friendly. If you aren't primarily dealing with a ton of data, you might want to look into something like CasaOS or Homarr which make sharing data on the network very "set it and forget it" and are more focused on apps.

Also recommendations include PiHole, Immich, Qbittorrent, Plex (or Jellyfin) obviously, SyncThing, Duplicati, Home Assistant (although you probably want to run that in a VM) and Tailscale and NGINX proxy manager for accessing outside the house.
