I love the idea of taking on a monopoly, but I don’t like that, without regulation, it has a low chance of success, and the consumer gets to suffer as the monopoly fights back.

Entwistle boo.

The pricing scheme here is designed to gouge businesses for equal or more than the traditional non-cloud equivalent. Which happens to be completely unaffordable. Imagine buying a new enterprise grade server for your home setup.

You understand that global economic stability relies on people gambling their lives on a dream, right? Well, that and pure willful ignorance.

What would the journalists do? Try to explain that to people, and that nobody has figured out a way to fix it yet?

I know your joking but in case people don’t get it: rich comes from luck, not from hard work.

Don’t work any harder than you have to, thinking it helps. It doesn’t change the statistical chance of you becoming rich.

Many people will say you can help along the luck. Those people are dumb.

So I guess if I want to pay for my VPS with crypto I am a criminal? Good work cyber sleuths, you solved the problem!

This is the hosting equivalent of racial profiling and this firm in Texas should be ashamed. It is not good cyber security work.

At best they’ve identified something everyone else already knew and witch hunting Cloudzy (even if they are 100% malicious,) provides zero value.

Lol. They all look the same. I think maybe AI has a bias toward pictures online?

Monopoly busting. Ecosystem lock-in. Right to repair. Software patent reform. Privacy and AI regulation.

What do lawmakers even do these days anyway?

Resume field would get an api endpoint that only returns a json resume, and only if the request header is application/json. And the json resume would have embedded json.

We should just use second notation for everything.

I’ll be there in 5 min? I’ll be there in 2 or 3 hundo!

See you tommorow? See you in in 86K!

Next week? About half a Megasec!

Doesn’t Megasecond sound better than Fortnite?

I mean, yea. Happy to have AI as a player in the free market, the problem is that it requires a $0 salary so, kind of unbeatable as far as capitalism is concerned.

Why pay $1 to make $2, when you can pay $0 to make any number over zero? It scales infinitely, unlike the planets resources or human tolerance.

 

Disclaimer. I'm doing it anyway.

Long time hacker, and ambi-os user. Latest sexyness is my new macbook. After getting everything setup the way I want it, I start seeing buzz for Nix and got excited, but also bummed out that I didn't start from scratch.

I like new stuff, figuring it out and solving problems, but I also hate broken and unstable stuff. Doubly so when you go to use something you spent time setting up and it fails. Triply on having to switch your daily driver or setup any new system with all of your crazy custom setup.

  • How much pain will I suffer trying to replace brew with nixpkg?
  • Currently I use podman to build containers, should i switch to nix?
  • I use whatever virtual environment is appropriate for the task. Venv, etc. Seems like nix can do a better job?
  • What's the experience like with VSCode?

I am most excited at the prospect of using home-manager. The 'idea' of portability for my profile is pretty nice. I'd like to see it work across osx/win/linux and all the things be the same up to my browser and maybe some other cross-platform common things.

Don't roast me for not being hyper-specific here. I am not an uber-dev. I'd say I lean more into security and dev-ops. Happy to elaborate on anything.

I really want to hear others' experiences. I see the upside and, like I said, I'm going to take on the challenge anyway, but will I end up regretting it?

 
 

v.0.0.6

v0.0.4 - Per requests and concerns: Defaults changed and options added to prevent overloading servers, hitting rate-limiting, filtering to top x communities, etc!

Thanks for your support!

 

I made this tool to help self-hosters, new admins, or smaller instances have more global and updated content on their instances.

This is the similar to Lemmy Community Seeder but is designed to be run periodically to capture new communities, and include EVERYTHING by default.

EDIT: As noted in the comments, this is an admin tool. Please do not run it as a user if you don't know what you are doing. If you want a better "All," ask your admin first! That said, lemmony in no way constitutes abuse! You can cause a DOS with curl, but that's not what curl was written for. This tool is to legitimately use an API to enhance our experience. Admins that desire to accommodate high volume on a public service will not know this tool is running against, or on their instances. If it causes performance issues, that is unfortunate. They are free to throttle, ban or block API access to their instance in a multitude of ways.

EDIT 2: Donate to your instance/admin if you like Lemmy!

 

Is there a site that crawls and aggregates ALL kbin magazines? Like https://browse.feddit.de for Lemmy.

I've been searching around but no luck. A second best would be a curated list.

Federation Lag-o-meter (aftershock.lemmy.management)
 

I made this based on the gripe about some of the silent failures with federation. Might help users choose other servers. Might help admins troubleshoot. Open to comments and criticisms!

It's like they are trying to irritate people into canceling their accounts.

Imo, this one might actually be worse than the account sharing and cause people to quit. As soon as you have people messing around with their subscription version, it's all too easy to just say "nah, I actually don't want this anymore".
