Currently on the $1/month patron tier for lemmy. Hope it helps the devs!

I know that's a feature, I just also heard that we should avoid uploading directly to the instance to avoid clogging it up. Is this actually an issue, or an overreaction?

This post confuses and frightens me. Upvoted

I'm not implying your worries are not valid, but I've never understood this perspective. From my point of view, an uncaring universe is freeing. We have no responsibility to any great power, and are free to choose our own path.

I'd say it's more tragic than cruel. In my mind, cruelty requires conscious decision, something the universe is incapable of. The universe isn't inflicting anything, it is simply happening.

On a slightly related note, how do I make the post show a thumbnail, like other posts I see here? I see some other imgur submissions with thumbnails, but mine doesn't for some reason. EDIT: Found it! I have to open the image in a new tab, then use that link instead.

That must feel horrible

I'm a big fan of Crowbar Collective's vision of Xen, and while yeah its pretty long, it does make it more memorable than the original Xen imo

Definitely. I kinda wish they decided to also do Opposing Force and Blue Shift, but there are other teams working on that

I use this video when setting up a basic arch install. I'm a beginner myself, and this video takes you through every step. Maybe check out if you're missing something in setup?

That's what I did actually! I thought that would bypass any weirdness, but looks like it still did that.

I believe it would be a valid concern, if those V-8 engines were all designed and manufactured by the same company. Sure, one could modify it's design to suit their needs, including removing things they may not like about the base design, but that can't be sustainable when those changes won't be supported by mechanics, and when companies using those cars forbid the use of cars with modified engines.

Sounds like my experience with Manjaro lol

I see, I suppose it's out of my price range at the moment. Good to keep in mind, though, thanks!

Well, looks like I'll stick to uploading to Lemmy directly then. Thanks!
