Goddamnit. I was sad and still laughed.

On two occasions I made a louder-than-necessary comment to my kids to stay away from those people (MAGA hats too) while they were within earshot and then listed reasons why. Got some dirty looks, but no one ever approached me. Because they're a bunch of feckless cowards.

Yes, but you can medicate ADHD. There’s no entry in the DSM for brain rot (yet).

Agreed. I think I’m fairly well read and I’ve worked through a decent number of philosophical texts, but I’ve never finished Walden.

The safest and most flexible option would be to configure the BIOS to not use the RAID controller and just "see" the drives as a regular JBOD, and then setup a ZFS RAID-Z1 array and configure your zvols, etc. in that instead. RAID-Z1 is functionally very similar to old-school RAID-5. There's virtually no performance penalty with software RAID these days, and you're eliminating the proprietary RAID controller as a single point of failure.

On the one hand, I understand the inherent limitations of pseudonymous social media and why a corporation and even end users might benefit from authoritative user identification.

On the other hand, oh hell no.

 

Lock in, chat. If you're on your sigma grindset (or your GenZ/Gen Alpha kids are) you might think I'm delulu, but it's true - Thoreau, a utopian philosopher with big W-rizz, lamented the issue, which he described as one's inability to capture the essence of the condition of a gradual atrophy in the capacity to think critically, concentrate, and be in the world appropriately. It's not bussin, no cap.

Wouldn’t this technically be reflection, not projection?

So pleased whenever I run across a lemmy-specific comic or meme. Makes me feel like we really made it.

I know we’re all here for the LOLs, but just a quick reminder: it’s ok to enjoy things without being able to monetize them.

The dollar was fully decoupled from the gold standard in 1971. I think this is just a slightly delayed reaction to that.

While I understand the concept of federation I'm unclear as to what it actually entails at a technical level. When lemm.ee eventually shuts down, will all of that user content (posts, comments, votes, etc) cease to exist? Is it mirrored on other instances?
