Does anyone remember these? This was a time before answering machines, hard line voice mail, beepers, cell phones etc?

  • What are the m and of lines for?

    • The Google One VPN service is heading to the Google graveyard - The Verge

  • I liked that they had special privacy tech other VPNs don't have but they didn't allow you to choose the location so it was unusable for me.

    I want my VPN location to be my actual location so that the weather app doesn't mess up and show the wrong city.

    • When you see unique content on Lemmy, please screenshot and post on Reddit if you are active on both.

  • Or alternatively it gives spez more data to sell

    • How many communities are you subscribed to?

    Jump

  • None I just look at new because there's not enough content on Lemmy to filter it

    • Using BTC to buy stuff from the dark net is totally fine

    Jump

  • Using Bitcoin is very different from using Monero. In Monero it's not possible to do chain analysis like the many companies that exist to trace Bitcoin back to the KYC exchange do.

    • How much of our private info are Lemmy admins able to see?

    Jump

  • Don't forget it may have also been replicated to other instances before you edit or delete it where those admins also have access to the database.

  • Who cares how well the stock market is doing if we all got mass fired to make it happen

    • If Lemmy became popular, what would prevent any three-letter agency from opening a server to get all the user data?

    Jump

  • As far as I understand votes are published as ActivityPub messages, otherwise multiple servers could not have the same vote counts. They need to be able to deduplicate the same vote coming from two different servers.

    So everyone can read your votes there's just not an easy UI for it.

  • The data is already public, that's how ActivityPub works

    • What's the name of this cable?

    Jump

  • It's a power adapter cable for inside a PC. It's an 8 pin to dual 6 pin PCI power adapter. You probably don't need it, it likely came with a PSU and wasn't needed for the build.

    • Which OS do you use for your homeserver?

    Jump

  • I'm running FreeBSD I actually like it a lot.

    I picked it for zfs. A lot of the ways things work seem cleaner and simpler than on Linux and zfs is awesome with the copy on write snapshots and filesystem compression and all that. I like rc.conf and pf is way nicer than iptables and even when you upgrade it automatically makes a snapshot so you can rollback.

    Sometimes I do need to patch and compile things because people seem to not know freebsd exists but that's really the only downside.

    • Is there an easy way to stream full bluray disc rips with menus and features over the network to my TV

    Jump

  • Why not just convert them and save 20gb of storage space?

    • Piracy is becoming harder everyday, that I think it will become irrelevant after 3-5 years and the free stuff will replace it.

  • How the hell do you expect people to make high quality content and other people to host it for free?

    • Someone double check the physics here.

  • It works if the wind is really strong, but everyone knows physicists can only handle frictionless vacuums
