  • Everyone seems to be missing the point so I'll let Todd Howard remind you all, "We're going to be doing a lot of add-on content for Starfield."

    $5 horse armor folks. That's Bethesda. Stop paying them to make garbage, or at least stop complaining about it.

  • It's the illusion the maga crowd clings to. They think the economy was better under Trump and they think that relates to prosperity for them. The truth is that the economy really only indicates how the market is for the wealthy. But they don't see that. Trump, like nearly all GOP, is fully prepared to strip mine this nation of all resources possible, which would me amazing for the economy. 🙄

  • I get that, but here we are. It's something I want to do. I've been at it for 6 months and I've managed to get the site working twice, but am still struggling with SMTP. Digital ocean blocks smtp and send grid breaks the site.

    ¯(ツ)

  • Oh yes, I've been using the ansible method of deploying and I have it very close, I just can't get SMTP working. I've set up an account with send grid but letsencrypt keeps telling me I've passed the limit for certs and every time I try to deploy it says I have to wait another week to try. I would remove certs but since I've already wiped those out, I don't know what they are or how to find them.

  • Vet here. I give you my blessing. 😉 I'm okay when it comes from people genuinely, but when it comes from the employee at Lowe's, it means absolutely nothing, regardless - so I usually just say "no thank you". And I think people only do it because marketing in the early 2000s really pushed that shit. When I got back in 2005, people in the airport started an applause and some old greasy guy grabbed my arm and took my hand to shake it. I hated every second of it. I wished the building would have collapsed on them. I kept thinking, I wonder if they would be so quick to applaud us if they saw half the pictures I had taken. I deleted every picture I had and exorcized those SD cards within days. And the only thing outside of my own head that reminds me of the horrible shit we did is those fucking bobbleheads and their incessant gratuity.

    That said, I did get the third degree from a Vietnam vet once because, he "never got thanked" for his service, "they just called us babykillers". Which I thought was funny, because when I was shipping out, a young adolescent saw us in uniform and yelled, "babykillers!", to which I responded, "wrong war buddy", and my platoon mates laughed. So I suppose getting empty, ignorant valor is better than misdirected vitriol.

    Either way, fuck nationalists.

  • Self hosting, at least for lemmy, is absolute trash. I have been told a few times when asking questions that, "it is expected that you are thoroughly experienced with Linux" to be able to follow the mediocre guides. And they are trash if you are a newbie.

    So people like me, who would love to use Lemmy for non Linux things, am posting almost entirely about Linux problems.

  • Where's the confusion? They protested the notion of drunk driving several times – many more than necessary. Protesting is like eating pasta. You can't do too much of it.

  • In a vice versa way, that's pi hole. The website makes ad requests to the DNS and pi hole says:

  • And lineage will support it for the next few-.... And they dropped support.

  • OMG 🤦 Thank you for explaining this. Now I get why he keeps saying that no banks were harmed. And now it makes sense why they believe he owes so much in taxes.

    Okay, I'm tracking like a VCR

  • This, the don't just rip off framing every time they need to replace it. There will be some way to access it. When I traveled for work, I had a tool bag for a few things, chiefly the thermostat.

  • You're not wrong, but your distinction is meaningless since common carriers in the US are often regulated by the same governing rules and very often the same governing bodies as public utilities.

  • all the things that folks warned would happen without net neutrality hasn't happened.

    I don't think that's fair at all. Since we have never really had NN, then I would ask you to define what it is first. If you say that NN prevents ISPs from provisioning off websites in bundles then I would say, you're not wrong but I massively dispute your definition of NN.

    It is supposed to protect a free and open internet. I think I can safely state that. I think we can agree to that as a basis. And I can think of dozens of things that are going on right now that only serve to disarm and control users in order to strip-mine them of as much value as possible. If ISPs were utilities then you would have access to their financial reports, you could see their service reports, you would be able to know how they have and plan to allocate resources, and you would have at least transparency if not influence in decisions they choose to make that affect the cost of service. Imagine if they would have to apply for a tariff audit just to get approved to raise rates?

    Are you truly arguing that this hypothetical alternate dimension is somehow imperceivably different than our own?

  • The farts I get from those are indescribable. Do others experience that? Is that the reference?

  • I guess I'm confused. Firstly, I don't understand why you're so adversarial. Did I say something offensive? I was trying to be helpful in supporting your theory. Maybe you could find a pattern out of what we already can confirm, who knows? Second, I didn't dispute anything you said, and I didn't make any claims that a tertiary search can't at least be relatively consistent with. If you search election fraud convictions there are several articles reporting on just that. Heritage has a report out covering the last 20 years. So what did I say that was so erroneous that you think I should have "fact-checked"?

  • Ah no, full time job, 12+ hr shifts. Not many poop breaks to chat on.
