Oh yeah, hahaha.

Thanks, I’ll fix it.

It might depend on the lemmy instance you are posting to (lemmy.ml) and/or where you have your account (lemmy.world), because I don’t think that this is built into the AP protocol.

I suspect at least one of these uses some kind of filtering mechanism that blocks VPN users, like cloudflare’s CDN.

I actually wanted to link this song by Perturbator, but this was a happy little accident (^^,)

It absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.

That definitely sounds like a good idea and not ominous at all…

Mandatory Bourdain Quote

I see you point; but not even 200 years ago the people couldn’t imagine most people working in other “industries” than agriculture.

Historically, most people worked in agriculture. (I’m not sure of the percentage, but it was >80% IIRC, but we can take a low estimate at 50%).

Nowadays less than 5% of the world population works in agriculture, due to increases in automation (machinery that can plow and harvest), and better understanding of the process (more efficient use of land).

While some of that turned out to be bad for the environment (who knew biodiversity is good, actually?), it did free up most of the population to do other things.

I hope it’s not “AI” that will automate the future (because of the huge energy costs to the environment), but automation more generally could help us free more time for passionate pursuits.

Jobs like software engineer didn’t even exist a century ago, and who knows what kind of new jobs will be created in the next 100?

That’s already been going to the wrong people for decades now.

The least drastic solution would be something like UBI, where a lot of people would be miserable, but at least will be able to put food on the table. (In case you’ve seen The Expanse series, I imagine that something like the part where Bobbie asks for directions on Earth).

A more drastic solution would be to not tie the worth of people to the amount of work they do or the amount of wealth they have.

Also, this recent classic: I will fucking piledrive you if you mention AI again was really illuminating.

I heard that somewhere in the US there were parts of a nuclear power plant being delivered by steam train. So that’s basically one steam engine supplying another! (^^,)

I can’t seem to find an article about it anywhere, so it might be an urban legend :(

Pretty much, yeah.

I’d recommend using two physical drives (SSD/HDD) instead of two partitions if you can, because windows update sometimes messes with the bootloader. But most laptops only have one drive so that’s not always possible.

Do keep in mind that formatting a drive (e.g. to split it in partitions) will erase all the data, so make sure you have backups!

In the last few years, Valve (company behind the popular Steam PC games store) has made huuuge efforts in making most games work well on Linux, because the Steam Deck console that they sell runs on Linux, and the compatibility layer they made is called Proton.

To check what games work well on Linux you should look in the ProtonDB.

If there are games that only work on Windows, you could do dual booting.

The question was about client trust, which the server doesn’t. If the shot wasn’t possible, it’s not valid and did not happen.

how do you design a server to be “better” if it has to trust data from a remote client?

Because it doesn’t have to.

The linux kernel contains more profanity than this meme…

Ah yes, that’s the difference. Thanks!

But then they’re drinking irradiated water, no?

Unless it’s really easy to remove the radiation safely, this doesn’t seem like the right solution.
