I found out by accident, as I was in your spot.

Quickly put your finger on your account in the bottom bar and swipe up. Then it’ll show all accounts to allow you to switch.

I run it in a container on Kubernetes. Definitely recommend.

More than a PDP-11, but I would recommend against both.

I wonder how a “first computer” stats break down when some people (me) were born before laptops and tablets. (Also now I feel old…)

The company I work for is currently developing an AI based system to “read” legal documents and boil them down to a few pieces of info to shove in a spreadsheet. One of the people I work with has to make a system that tests the quality of that AI. So far he’s found that to be an impossible task because the info he’d check it against, that in which humans did the same task, is also super fallible and basically he’s found that they both suck in different ways.

Which means the AI is just being used because no one can say its wrong, since no one can say its definitively right either… but it’s cheaper.

So I’ve done public DNS zone hosting and you can use let’s encrypt for certs and such, but

• What about caches? I basically use to reduce load and network traffic reduction before it gets to me so I don’t have to run my own varnish cache and get regional caching to reduce repeat cross country calls for people on the other coasts.
• What do you use for DDOS protection?

Basically, cloudflare is free, and i get all that. If I find another place better, I’m open to jumping ship.

That’s pretty neat, what adapter is that?

I mean, yeah… robots don’t take sick days or form unions. Kinda sounds like a no brainer for them. And hearing how many workers complain about crappy warehouse jobs and terrible pay everyone is better off.

Doesn’t mean I’m going to be giving them money though, however I guess I can’t boycott something I’m not using, but others should.

Not exactly the same. I don’t blame facebook for the rise, its just a place to post and share… I blame the algorithm that facebook created and keeps updating to enhance and expand those bubbles while pushing users to outrage and divide them into bubbles that empower and embrace conspiracies, right/alt-right, and other extreme viewpoints. Same thing with X/Twitter.

Wikipedia doesn’t have any such algorithm. They don’t have a team dedicated to pushing people to those extremes (or anything at all).

Pepperidge Farm remembers.

You do, “Cash is King” is why people canceling these things en masse makes a difference in the world… you make a difference in their bottom line.

My only regret is that I cant vote with my wallet against things I cant afford to buy in the first place.

The hero we need.

Honestly, if honestly, if you’re following that many things that its that overwhelming, follow less things. I regularly clear out things I find I don’t care about or are no longer useful to me. I’ve just found I absolutely can’t trust an algorithm to determine what I may or may not be interested in. There’s always bias in there that’s trying to shift me towards anything that drives engagement or clicks. It’s how they keep people on their site and make money for the platform.

That said, everyone has their choice of how they consume things. These are just two different ways and while I know I can’t stand yours and you can’t stand mine, if it works for you, enjoy it.

So, how do you know you’re not missing something important or interesting? Whats the point if you can’t guarantee things you want to see aren’t being pushed out of view by the algorithm? To me, that completely defeats the point of using something like that. Without using chronological, I’d regularly get told about things I cared to know, well after the event happened. I’d miss notifications from friends and family that were important to me. Even with favoriting certain things, it made having that feed useless and it’s one of many reasons I stopped using them. It’s useless without knowing that I can see what I care to see.

That would greatly depend on how many people/places you follow. I ran like this for years on FB and Twitter and never had an issue like that. If I refreshed it’s because I wanted to see newer stuff. That said I only had like 100-150 follows on either and those places/people don’t post THAT often. And with Chronological, you can stop when get to posts you’ve seen, or have some idea if you missed a chunk. It worked so much better and it’s how I sort Lemmy.

“The algorithm” is what interjects things “you might like” or “people you might know”. It’s what tries to push an agenda.

I ran Twitter and Facebook for the longest time in purely chronological order and it would literally only show you the people/places you follow. Nothing more, nothing less. It was the only way I made it useful to me and prevented me from missing things and finding info in time for the event/gathering/sale whatever. As soon as they dropped that option, my feeds got corrupted with people and places I didn’t care to know or follow. Shoving me towards causes and attempting to sway my opinions or enrage me against things it thought I should be enraged about. The Algorithm is one if the reasons countries become divided and set in bubbles.

Can it NOT have an algorithm? Just chronological please. Same with literally any other feed type site. Don’t throw random crap in my feed.

Currently, I have a 3 1L Dell node Proxmox cluster with 6 kube nodes on it (3 masters, 3 workers). Lets me do things like migrate services off of a host so I can take it out, do upgrades/maintenance, and put it back without hearing about downtime from the family/friends.

For storage, I’ve got a Synology NAS with NFS setup and then the pods are configured to use that for their storage if they need it (So, Jellyfin, Immich, etc). I do regular backups of the NAS with rsync. So, if that goes down, I can restore or standup a new NAS with NFS and it’ll be back to normal.

If feel like, for me at least, GitOps for containers is peace of mind. I run a small Kubernetes cluster as my home lab, and all the configs are in git. If need be, I know (because i tested it) if something happens to the cluster and I lose it all, I can spin up a new cluster and apply the configs from git and be back up and running. Because I do deployments directly from git, I know that everything in git is up to date and versioned so i can roll back.

I previously ran a set of docker containers with compose and then swarm, and I always worried something wouldn’t be recoverable. Adding GitOps here reduced my “What If?” Quotient tremendously.

I use an rsync job to do it. Rsync by default uses the files metadata to determine if the file has changed or not and updates based on that. You can opt to use checksums instead if you’d rather. IIRC, you can do it with a Synology task, or just do it yourself on the command line. Ive got a Jenkins setup to run it so i can gather the logs and not have to remember the command all the time (and i use it for other periodic jobs as well), but its pretty straightforward on its own.
