Roborock S8+ with the dock is awesome. It's a straight upgrade from the last gen flagship Roomba.

Way better mapping and battery life.

One small blessing of them being so technically incompetent is that there is no DRM, so you can just use yt-dlp to download whatever show you want to keep. It's just a small pain to do because you need to download your login cookie to pass to yt-dlp.

Since Lemmy.ml is still federated with Lemmygrad and Hexbear I see their posts and comments pretty regularly.

That's why I'm aggravated that I see people complaining about those groups but haven't seen the rhetoric their accused of. 😔

I genuinely want some links to examples. It would make me sad but I can accept if I'm wrong.

I joined Lemmy before the mass exodus, when the three major servers were Lemmy.ml, Beehaw, and Lemmygrad.

What do you mean by pointing that out?

I've seen more than my fair share of Lemmygrad posts and comments.

I stand by what I said.

I'm happy to look at any links to comments you dissaprove of.

It gets thrown around a lot by people who don't know the first thing about Marxism.

I'm a card carrying socialist so you think, with the communities I subscribe to, I would have seen some Tankies commenting, but I've yet to run across any Uygur genocide or Russian apologizing so far.

It really makes me mad when people accuse the maintainers of Lemmy of being Tankies when all I can find are very based essays they've written about socialist philosophy.

Edit: Just to be clear, I won't tolerate any Russia/China apologism. My account being from Leemy.ml means I still see content from the people most likely to be Tankies. I'm always willing to admit I am wrong if someone makes a compelling argument. I've just been silent on this topic since people started complaining and this is my first real push back. I don't want the Tankie slur applied to anyone who doesn't deserve it.

Thanks for this!

Thank you for saying this. ❤️

I do not understand people apologizing for capitalism ever.

That's the joke 😝

That sounds like a good idea. I'll take another look at GitHub settings. Thanks!

Since we were on the platform team we were all GitHub admins 😩. So it all relied on trust. Is there a way to block even admins?

At my current company all changes have to happen via GitHub PR and commit because we use GitOps (ex: ArgoCD with Kubernetes). Any changes you do manually are immediately overwritten when ArgoCD notices the config drift.

This makes development more annoying sometimes but I'm so damn glad when I can immediately look at GitHub for an audit trail and source of truth.

It wasn't InfoSec in this case but I had an annoying tech lead that would merge to main without telling people, so anytime something broke I had his GitHub activity bookmarked and could rule that out first.

Man that Time's article seems so out of touch to me. I couldn't finish it.

It's just funny to see a 2013 take on millennials before I was even old enough to realize the shitty world we inherited from the Boomers.

I thought that quote satire. Nope it's real. JFC. 😩

I've used Ubuntu on many occasions but tried PopOS since last week.

It's surprisingly good. Lots of ergonomics over Ubuntu. They have a version of the iso prepackaged with Nividia drivers.

Most surprisingly, after some install busted my sound devices (they stopped showing up), I discovered PopOS has a system refresh button that saves your home directory but reinstalls the OS to a fresh state. Very convenient.

It means "I feel the same way you do and would have said it myself, so I acknowledge and applaud that you said it first".

Thoughtful take! Ditto.

Thanks!

As a Richmond native, how did I not know this? I'll check it out.

Obsidian is so so good.

I don't even mind to pay for their sync service to support them. You can even encrypt your vault (notebook) with your own key.
