Who’s going to do the regulating?

Sure, a liberal could impose sane regulation, but what happens next time the US elects a Trump?

You want Trump (or any other fascist wannabe dictator) to have the ability to control what people say on the Internet? He’s already calling to take down ABC for fact checking him!

So just like gun control (as in an all-out ban), regulation of free speech/communication is just so risky.

I do think platforms should be doing more to remove disinformation from the mainstream, no matter who it pisses off. Unfortunately that does end up leading to echo chambers when what Americans need is to hear (truth) from all points of view.

Very complex situation that AI is only making worse.

Only reserve IPs that are outside of the DHCP range you’ve configured.

Lenovo X1 carbon is what you are looking for. I got one (10th Gen) and slapped fedora on it and it’s been absolutely awesome.

Battery life could be better, but I haven’t tweaked it.

Good luck finding a quality new laptop with Linux support that also has a rj45 port. Framework might be an option though. But I just use a gigabit Ethernet usb3 adapter and it works fine

I don’t disagree with the sentiment here, the world is fucked and unchecked crony capitalism is the problem. The rich get richer and the rest of us barely get by. Also fuck Huffman for ruining the only social media platform I’d used consistently for over a decade.

That said, Huffman’s salary is not even close to the number reported here. He makes something like $350k in a year (still a wildly high salary, no one person needs to make that much in a single year!), this “compensation” is closely tied to his equity in Reddit and it’s predicted value when the company goes public.

Most CEOs are compensated in this way and I think it’s not exactly a bad way to do it (partially for employees but mostly for investors). This value is tied to performance, so if the CEO does stupid shit and ruins the company, it directly affects his compensation. This can be a good thing if that CEO makes good business decisions, which can lead to more jobs and more stability for the workers. I realize this is not always the case, but that’s the general idea.

It still sucks, and I still think no individual should make more money than is needed to live comfortably, but it’s not like he’s raking in 193 million every year like it seems from this tweet.

A bunch of ai garbage and also some ads please! Maybe collect info about me and sell it to marketing corporations while you’re there.

100% if that country is in northern Europe. Hard nope if it’s in South America.

I’d buy a ticket tomorrow if there was a job for me in a Scandinavian country and I didn’t need to speak the language immediately.

Fuck yes. This!

God damn this is the most real thing I’ve read in years.

So for a cheat code, check out “ansible-nas” on github. It will do all the heavy lifting for you.

I would not recommend swapping out major components without doing a new install. Linux installation is quite simple these days, so back up your configs and put them in place in the new installation.

If you run things in containers, these kinds of issues are not as relevant. You can run jellyfin in docker the same on any host and pass the GPU through for xcoding.

Unfortunately I don’t think there’s enough info to answer your question specifically.

Love that channel! I bought some of his prints and 2 of his shirts from his shop. Pretty affordable vs many other YouTube artists!

I’m not doing links because I’m lazy, but I watch a lot of YouTube and these are my favorites:

Ordinary Things - funny smarmy British dude explains ordinary things. Once a month or so, very high effort stuff.

That Chapter - funny sarcastic Irish guy explains true crime things. Twice a week on a good week. Also high effort research

Internet Comment Etiquette - this is not for you. Don’t watch it. You’ve been warned.

LGR - the best legacy youtuber talks about the best legacy tech.

Patrick Willems - funny American guy explains movie stuff.

The Crafsman Steady Craftin - funny puppet man does crafts. This is the most high effort channel on YouTube.

Use a different instance. That one is overloaded. Honestly I think they should close sign ups for a while.

Check out the GitHub project ansible-nas

I prefer to use ansible to define and provision my containers (docker/podman over containerd). For work, of course k8s and helm takes the cake. no reason to run k8s for personal self hosting, though.
