Proton @lemmy.world•Can Unified Push be setup for Proton Mail on GrapheneOS?English
7·12 days agoI really respect that Proton is trying to be the quick replacement for google stuff in people transition into privacy focused tech
But shit like this is why its loosing that edge.

Games@lemmy.world•Minecraft is removing code obfuscation in Java EditionEnglish
2·17 days agoThat makes sense. I’ve never wanted to play bedrock so I’ve never tried.
Sorry other poster.

Its somewhat justifiable, kinda.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is the most super Chad of solo code projects and why?
3·20 days agoTerry A. Davis’s story inspired me to try coding professionally.
Unfortunately coding professionally convinced me I’d have more fun in IT.

memes@lemmy.world•I broke my hip bone a month ago and have to be robocop for the rest of my life... Can't imagine the pain this person felt.
5·21 days agoThis is one of those things where my 6+ ft height is a privilege.
I have never even dreamed of putting my feet on the dash.
What’s crazy is that, personally, I seem to know just as many “Can’t this guy take a hint” women as I know “I’m not good enough for him so I should block him” type women.
I legitimately know two women who had that concern, blocked the guy on everything, and he either made an alt or found an obscure social to DM them on.
Both are happily married and medicated for their anxiety now.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•In hindsight, how much did you like your younger self? If present-you met your younger self (say, age 10) from an alternate timeline, do you think you could be friends?
2·23 days agoThis feels like propaganda to get me to want kids.
I would take care of alt timeline me because I know what I would have wanted and how that gets me to here.
And if you just want a NAS? It is really hard to go wrong with a 4 bay NAS from one of the reputable vendors (which may just be ugreen at this point?) as those tend to still come out cheaper than building it yourself and 4 disks means you can either play with fire with RAID5 or not be stupid and do RAID1.
Actually ASUS started to sell N100 motherboards with the CPU soldered on for $120
That plus a jonsbo N2 or N3, a few extra pieces, and its a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Ugreen options. Sure it will probably run Truenas instead of Ugreens custom truenas or whatever its built on, but that extra $300 is another 24TB hard drive or a HexOS lifetime subscription.
There’s also always the classic buy an old mid sized tower for $100 and slap two massive hard drives in it

Technology@lemmy.world•Automattic CEO calls Tumblr his 'biggest failure' so farEnglish
3·25 days agoTo be fair, IF tumblr had added the tipping feature while porn was huge on the site, it might have became Onlyfans.
OF wasn’t always a porn site. It was trying to be a Patron that allowed adult content, but it became just a porn site.
I argue something similar would have happened to tumblr

6·25 days agoI checked for you and good news!
Tap for spoiler
He isn’t involved in much except investing in mobility aides and was apparently on the Planned Parenthood board for a while.
Quick search showed his most recent activity was being the single largest donor to Mark Kelly’s 2020 senate campaign.
Completely normal progressive liberal stuff.

Imagine less off a proper BOD and more of a 3D Printable holder for 3.5 inch drives and no actual connections.
I was considering a mini ITX PC with just an external SAS to Sata PCI card. But at the rate of just building that I might end up just building a better tiny nas box with maybe a jonsbo case like the N3
That’s basically what I’m going for.
How are you connecting the mini PC via SATA and how are you powering the BOD?

Technology@lemmy.world•4chan fined $26K for refusing to assess risks under UK Online Safety ActEnglish
1·1 month agoIts probably a parent company situation.
Lots of corpo structures are just large parent companies that actually just own a bunch of smaller companies so that the parent company gets the profits while the smaller companies make the risky products and can be bankrupted at any minute.
The company I work for does that. We just bought a couple companies that were competitors in a risky but profitable market. The full idea is that if one company gets sued to oblivion, we let that company die, move all the employees and customers to the backup company, and call it a day.
Capitalism baby!

2·1 month agoProbably why they didn’t do it in the first place.
They barely pay for moderation. Who is going to pay for that survey? And also why would they? Obviously most of the people on that site are under 18. That’s when I used it.
What other demographic clicks the horny ads they run?
The classic
offers to recycle
actually installs esoteric Linux distros
Classic!



I’m on year 5 of fully committed to Linux everything (minus work) and I still assume “oh yeah I can probably just sudo force the thing I want. Reading logs takes too long” and yeah it bites me in the ass sometimes.
Its weird to hold Linus (Tech Tips) to such a high standard for no other reason than he makes tech YouTube videos.
I’m a fucking sys admin and I make the same mistakes. Its human. I’m glad he’s at least making Linux seem accessible while also bringing to light the realities of how different the troubleshooting strat is from Windows to Linux.
