It's probably not advertising that they are afraid that you will block but the trackers. They want to know what user is clicking where, how long you are on each page and what you ordered / not ordered.

Same with YouTube ads. Lots of scam's and reporting it always ends in my report getting denied..

I need to stay awake some time during the night to feed the baby or support my wife doing it. I always fight against the sleep and that is when the pre-sleep dreams are really getting weird. What is happening a lot is that I read something and half way the sentence I fall half asleep and at that point, my mind completes the sentence(s) with the weirdest things.

At least it had the decency too stay on it. Could have sit on it for a minute, walk away and then watch you eat it.

Only 10 generations away (about 100-150 years), you already have 1024 ancestors. 20 generations and you have 1.048.576. And 30 generations get you 1.073.741.824.

In 1500 the world only had 450.000.000

This example only shows the direct family line (parents of parents of..) and no descendents of brothers and sisters.

And the world did not start 500 years ago

Needless to say, we are all a bunch of inbreds

It depends in the country you are.

If you want to show of your skills, why not write an article about it. This way you don't publish company property (maybe only snippets of code) and the viewer can read your reasons on why you made certain decisions.

But do not do this without consent of the company. If the company likes it, you could even start your article something along the lines of "here at %company% we like to write good code...". Than it is a win-win. I see this a lot on sites like medium.com

You are absolutely right. Assuming the home server is probably not serving thousands requests every minute or mining bitcoin but just a file server or something that is idle most of the time.

I do not agree with that.

• A PSU is the maximum what all the components combined are allowed to use. No more power than that is possible. If a system needs more than it's PSU can deliver, it will become unstable (data loss, random restarts, etc.)
• The 2x750 is a redundant setup that servers have. Servers need to be able to run 24/7. With redundant PSU if one PSU has a failure, the other PSU will take over. Without any restarts. You can just pull the plug out of one of the PSU and all is just fine.
• I do agree with you that the max wattage is under load. Most home servers are running idle most of the time anyway.

Why not check online for each component for its max watt?

AMD FX8350 is 125W max Xeon E5645 is 80W max

Then the only difference is the motherboard, right?

And also, the Xeon has integrated graphics but the amd does not. If you will let the amd do a lot of things with video, it needs a video card or else the cpu will need to do all of that. On the other hand, if the machine main task is to for example render videos, an integrated GPU in the Cpu will not get you far either...

That was a good read. Thanks for the link.

What if someone sets up an instance, make a post and manipulate the upvotes? Just give it a million upvotes. That would break the whole system..

Or a bit more subtle, every upvote is multiplied by 10.

That was an awesome game. I remember playing it with my friends and if you hit the top 10, we would write our name with 'the best'.

It also had a level editor. I created one with a lot of jumps.

Good times!

How I'm reading it, is that all Lemmy v0.18 servers (and lower) will no longer work with Voyager v2 web app. And Lemmy v0.19 does work. But I might be wrong..

Here is the changelog text

The next release of Voyager will be v2. Voyager v2 will break support for lemmy v0.18 for progressive webapp clients! This is due to CORS limitations where web clients cannot set a custom Cookie header for backward compatibility, and the new v0.19 lemmy-js-client removes authentication via the auth url param.

Yeah, or download the blueray files and convert them yourself with something like HandBrake. It takes a lot of effort but does do the job..

Nice. Instantly bought the adfree version.

Just send them all the bills you have because "this acacemic year, you are implementing a You Pay For Me Policy".

I'm using a simple cheap usb switcher (Aten 2 x 4 USB 2.0 Switch). I have connected a mouse, keyboard, card reader. One machine is connect to the monitor via hdmi and the other via display port. I simply switch video via the buttons on the monitor. The third machine is a laptop that is not connected to the monitor.

A dedicated KVM would be a better option but I'm not willing to spend that much money.

If I can stop whenever (without payment), sign me up. It will be boring tho.. Very boring. Probably will need to keep my mind occupied because that situation can make you go crazy.

• make a boilerplate/starter project for something. For instance a java project that has a api so implement Swagger, json, some example endpoints, etc. That way, if I start a new project I don't have to first configure it all and think about what dependencies I need to implement.

Or one for css or Angular. Just implement the basic style for buttons, text, menu's etc and adjust where needed. A bit like Bootstrap but then more basic

• make a private website where combine all your (future) tools/projects. Like some calculate (km to miles, whatever), some links to other projects, a page to your servers/services (kodi, plex, sabnzbd, etc)

Must be one of those electric cats then.
