The FCC is still to my knowledge taking public comments about data caps:

May be worth people here commenting about how they are ridiculous

I just tried it and got this result. The sentence is incredible, I can’t get over how painfully stupid it is.

Apparently Kenya starts with a k sound and a letter that resembles k but not the letter k

I did it just now and got this:

OK Mr Socrates how else would you assess whether a student has learned something?

For close to 2 decades we had near 0 interest rates. VC daddies used that as an excuse to throw loads of money at every itiots pet project because hey, why not? They were able to absolutely roll in money and take out loans at criminally low rates.

But now rates are getting back to actually sane levels again, and suddenly the vc daddies are all sad because the infinite money pit has dried up and they actually have to be responsible with their money again. So now they’re turning to all of the companies that they gave money to and are saying “hey remember when I gave you money? Pay me back now. I don’t care if it means you have to fundamentally change the service that’s making you money, get me my money or I’ll bring you down with it.”

And since our economy is structured such that the money of wealthy people is more important than literally anything or anyone else in our society, the companies have no choice but to comply. So they all raise their prices and shore up the holes that weren’t letting them milk every cent out of their users.

Is this Elon musks account? Because for you to be so out of touch as to say the insane shit you just said you must be extraordinarily wealthy or a hermit living in the woods with nobody else around

I just keep hitting issues with the damn AIO, I got past this and now it’s stuck in maintenance mode. Who the fuck thought this was in a release ready state? I swear I’ve never had this much issue with ANY other docker container- and the documentation doesn’t help at all. I’m at a loss here, i’m super frustrated with this.

Because all the sinophobe tech bros have migrated to Lemmy and don’t actually understand the shit they’re talking about. They think the tech THEY use is super cool and want to keep using it, and also think China is scary and an imminent threat to them sitting in their gamer chair surrounded by doritos.

Several in fact. Most famously they bombed Tulsa oklahoma when black people there got too wealthy. But now multiple states are banning the teaching of it, alongside banning the teaching of our genocide of the Native Americans.

We do most of our murder of innocent people these days abroad though which isn’t really much better, but most Americans are apparently completely fine with children being murdered so long as they aren’t white and they aren’t here, or they aren’t in an American school being shot by one of their peers.

I have been trying to get this working for over a week now and have run into LITERALLY EVERY POSSIBLE PROBLEM. It’s driving me nuts and I’m on the verge of giving up. Do you happen to be any good with the AIO image setup?

I have been FIGHTING TOOTH AND NAIL for about a week to get the AIO working in docker on Linux, and I’m getting extremely frustrated with it.

I FINALLY got it to actually function yesterday to where I could attempt to do its internal setup, but now I’m stuck with this page:

I’m genuinely starting to question whether it’s worth it at this point, I haven’t once been able to actually get it all the way set up and functional.

What would you expect out of “suck off capitalist daddies to hopefully get a job” the social media company?

I’m just getting my server up and running! Previously it only ran Honeassistant.

Now it runs proxmox, which boots 2 vms, one for HAOS and another for Debian. On the Debian vm there is currently Plex, nextcloud, and some -arr apps.

8 also have a separate raspberry pi pihole. I’ve had that going for years now, I think I first made it 2019.

Thanks! I’ll read up on that tomorrow, though I’ll have to do something slightly different as I used proxmox as my base OS rather than unRaid. But that looks like a good stepping off point!

I’m actually setting plex up within the next couple of days! I had to make some hardware changes first (mostly adding more storage)

Are there any good guides on how do to it the way you did so it can torrent the stuff you don’t have on demand? I assume that once you’ve torrented it, it keeps that torrented media downloaded for later use as well? Or does it automatically delete after a certain amount of inactivity on that file? Did you set it up with a VPN, and if so how did you get that working in Qbittorrent in docker?

I think they’re just brainwashed by our capitalist system which says that if a person is wealthy it’s because they worked for it and we’re successful. We are indoctrinated from very young ages to believe that capitalism is a strict meritocracy where only the best, most intelligent, most deserving people become wealthy.

In reality most wealthy people inherited some or most of their wealth, and used that inherited wealth to create more wealth- because it turns out that once you are wealthy it’s really easy to get more wealthy. They aren’t wealthy because they are skillful or intelligent or good at business. Most of them are good at precisely one thing: giving some of their money to a professional who knows how to grow it so that they will never run out.

Then they throw money at whatever catches their eye, and when you have billions to throw around you can cast a very wide net that will almost certainly catch something.

Or they are neolibs who are seemingly incapable of thinking critically about anything

OK, I won’t lie, I hear this all the time but I’m not convinced it’s true.

Are there any real statistics on it which account for bit accounts? Like, if reddit claimed that 99% of its users don’t make content, my immediate thought would be “how many users are real people and how many are bots?”

The thing is that liberals feel the need to obsess over “fairness.”

If you really ban hate speech from a place, then it will appear to mostly be inhabited by more left leaning people. The vast majority of hate speech comes from the right.

But at forms WANT those right WI gers to drive engagement, so they don’t enforce their TOS on open racism so long as it’s a conservative doing it. But if you’re on the left and repost it to criticize it you get dinged.

It’s bullshit that shows how many companies are run by fascists who don’t bother hiding it anymore. But the liberals eat it up because it wouldn’t be “fair” to ban conservatives “for their conservative views.”

I second Joplin. I love it, and I use it all the time.
