After their crypto crap, this doesn't surprise me one bit.

And don't give me that "You can disable the crypto" the fact is, you shouldn't have to because it shouldn't have ever been included in the first place.

I don't think lying to your SO and friends are a good way to accomplish anything.

I feel like the threat to "kill off desktop PCs" has been going for years, yet it has never eventuated. I'm a bit too old and too tired of all the threats/clickbait lately to even start to worry about it actually happening.

If it does, I'll find an alternative, but I very highly doubt it will happen anytime soon.

Can I have just one community without American politics shoved into it?

What does this have to do with technology? Seriously? Because she... used a computer?

Rest assured, nothing will change for you

If I had a dollar for every time I've read that, only to have everything change 6-12 months later, I'd be rich.

Don’t have any real evidence to substantiate this,

Then why post it and spread FUD?

Seriously shit like this is ridiculous and should get you banned. I can make shit up with no evidence as well, but it does no one any good.

Corsair intends to keep Drop as a separate brand within the company

I'll give that about 6 months before they "have to merge" and the layoffs begin.

Is there some award for being the very last person to post this in this community or something? This has been discussed to death about a dozen times already.

It seems the same things keep being posted multiple times, usually by bots. I have blocked bots, but they still show. It's gotten to the point I've had to start blocking them, and users the post the same things that have already been posted here multiple times.

Get rid of them I say.

No, but some people are stuck behind CG-NAT and can't port forward to the outside world for wireguard. Things like Cloudflared, Tailscale and ZeroTier get past that.

It's of course possible to use wireguard to a VPS and tunnel into that, but that's a bit more technical to set up.

Any thoughts on this OP or is this more "let me just link this everywhere and not actually give any discussion about it myself" links are so prevalent on lemmy lately.

Why is crap from 2 weeks ago being posted like it's new news yet again

Is this one of those bot accounts that aren't marked properly or is OP just after karma (which doesn't exist on this site).

Awesome! It's always an amazing feeling when you finally get things dialed in just right. Congrats!

If it works for you and allows you to start learning, there's no problem with it. Too many people seem to think that if you haven't compiled whatever yourself, it's not true "self hosting" but you should do what works best for you to get to the goal you want.

I don't really see it as an issue. Post it to whichever community you are most active on. If people want to part of that particular instance, they will see it and interact with it.

Just like I'm interacting with this post right now even though I'm not on lemmy.world. I'm quite over what became the gamification of karma on reddit, and really hope it doesn't become a thing here. There's no reason about having to worry about which instance to post something to, people will find it and interact with it.

The AC-130 is my favorite plane.

You shouldn't have to though. The whole "only available if you happen to live in X" is so much bs when it comes to things like this. Sure if it was a giveaway and needed to be shipped, I could understand. But a website being locked away to only certain regions is ridiculous.

I have a couple, including the one running my lemmy instance I'm posting this from. They've all been pretty good for me. I don't push any of them hard or anything, but I've not had any problems.

Maybe it was written using chatgpt-4

My lemmy instance is hosted on a 1GB vps with no problem. Even with a few other services on the same VPS.
