Just horrible. There are so many safeguards to prevent this from happening. I'm very curious to find out more details on who's to blame.

There's no timestamp for when things go missing, though.

A lemmy instance, a wiki, and a couple of other website type things, yes.

Publicly facing things are pretty limited, but it's still super handy inside the LAN with Adguard Home doing DNS rewrites to point it to the reverse proxy.

I appreciate what you're saying, though. A lot of people get in trouble by having things like Radarr etc. open to the internet through their reverse proxy.

Wrapping my head around reverse proxy was a game changer for me. I could finally host things that are usefull outside my LAN. I use Nginx-Proxy-Manager which makes the config simple for lazy's like me.

Zoos is good. I have a bunch of them.

It sounds like we agree, but I'm much less lawerly due to my lack of experience in that field.

Wow. W Bush was president (or Obama depending on month).

Edit: yep, W. Bush. Oct 6th 2008, so Obama hadn't even been elected yet.

The creator of Lemmy is just one example. They remove a lot of content that isn't hateful, just against their political ideology. I used that as an example of a private social media website which does a lot of censoring, even though the creators are sort of, somehow, outwardly against censoring? So everyone is human is my point.

The article in question is about hate speech, not political dissent. Hate speech is pretty widely moderated away on Lemmy, and I think a majority of people here are cool with that. Some here are arguing semantics which is fair. Censoring is censoring which is the definition of censoring. I'm in the camp that if someone online is threatening another person or group of people, that should be hidden/removed.

There's a big difference between utterly insane tankie takes and hateful content.

Are you saying it should be required by law to have a comment regarding removal of content?

That's the problem with the internet, really. You can't punch these a-holes through your monitor or keyboard. The consequence here is moderation instead of physical violence. Removing these people from their platform is the punch in the nuts that they deserve. It's still free speech because these are non-government websites.

Edit to make it less mean sounding.

I'm glad you asked because I've sort of been meaning to look into that.

I have 4 8TB drives that have ~64,000 hours (7.3 years) powered on.
I have 2 10TB drives that have ~51,000 hours (5.8 years) powered on.
I have 2 8TB drives that have ~16,800 hours (1.9 years) powered on.

Those 8 drives make up my ZFS pool. Eventually I want to ditch them all and create a new pool with fewer drives. I'm finding that 45TB is overkill, even when storing lots of media. The most data I've had is 20TB and it was a bit overwhelming to keep track of it all, even with the *arrs doing the work.

To rebuild it with 4 x 16TB drives, I'd have half as many drives, reducing power consumption. It'd cost about $1300. With double parity I'd have 27TB usable. That's the downside to larger drives, having double parity costs more.

To rebuild it with 2 x 24TB drives, I'd have 1/4 as many drives, reducing power consumption even more. It'd cost about $960. I would only have single parity with that setup, and only 21TB usable.

Increasing to 3 x 24TB drives, the cost goes to $1437 with the only benefit being double parity. Increasing to 4*24TB gives double parity, 41TB, and costs almost $2k. That would be overkill.

Eventually I'll have to decide which road to go down. I think I'd be comfortable with single parity, so 2 very large drives might be might be my next move, since my price per kWh is really high, around $.33.

Edit: one last option, and a really good one, is to keep the 10TB drives, ditch all of the 8TB drives, and add 2 more 10TB drives. That would only cost $400 and leave me with 4 x 10TB drives. Double parity would give me 17TB. I'll have to keep an eye on things to make sure it doesn't get full of junk, but I have a pretty good handle on that sort of thing now.

Lemmy was created because Desaulines(sp?) got "censored" on reddit. Now he famously over-censors his darling instance lemmy.ml.

My point is just that nobody really thinks it should be a free for all. Everyone is human and doesn't want to hear anything that they consider egregious, or in the case of lemmy.ml "against rule 2".

This has some limitations if I remember correctly. It doesn't use PostgreSQL, and I don't think you can use Collabora or whatever, so editing documents in your browser won't work.

It's quite possible that I'm wrong about that.

This prompted me to try using it again. The pointer is moving around slow, then fast, then way too fast. It's difficult to get it to land on what I want. Is that the point?

Cold hot dogs are allowed. Got it.

By recording the electricity use in my house I noticed a 1500 watt spike at a semi-regular interval. It would happen every 50 minutes and lasted for a few minutes. While overall not that much of a draw, it sort of drove me crazy not knowing what it was...

Then I discovered that it was our septic system's effluent pump (the leach field is up on a hill). The pump was turning on way too often because ground water was leaking into the pump chamber. It's not supposed to do that. The tank was about 45 years old, so not a huge surprise really.

Basically, my home automation (or tracking, really) lead to an $8k concrete tank replacement (more or less, as we had the guy do some additional stuff while he was here).

That's not really a bad thing though. Maintaining your house is very important. Our well had failed a coliform test the previous year, and I've yet to get it re-tested to see if the new tank fixed that little problem. I've been giving everything some time to settle down.

There's an add-on and an integration, yeah.

Oh interesting. How fast things change. I've only been using Frigate for around a year and I'm already behind the times.
