Nah you got banned for a reason, you suck at discussing anything of value and have unhinged takes and total lack of respect for others as well. I would continue to probe your mind to try and understand how you expect to reconcile having anonymity online to post whatever the fuck you want, with killing people who post CSAM online… Even though they’d be anonymous and free to post whatever they like because we somehow skipped content moderation and went straight for firing squad… But I think the ban you earned speaks for itself.

Ok so you’re just absolutely unhinged, got it. How old are you? You’re against airplanes in a very black-and-white way. Millions of people use airplanes daily, you know? I just happened to be boarding my plane back home when I saw this brainrot post. You know nothing else about me other than I was boarding a plane while typing this, so you’re way too quick to jump to conclusions about people, which is… Immature. Greta’s decisions regarding travel are commendable, but not everybody is able to spend money and time opting for boats instead of airplanes.

As for the rest of your comment… Who tf said anything about killing anyone??? If you cannot agree on a simple concept such as moderation in the context of an online platform, then you have no place questioning the way this or any platform works, at least not without sitting down and learning about online platforms, or basic human decency, first. Extremist & childish tales such as “we kill all the offenders” is exactly how we’re in this mess of a worldwide situation to begin with, not to mention it’s such a tangential answer to my very straightforward question of, what do you do about people posting things nobody should post, while not knowing who posted it and not being able to prevent them from doing it again, all in the name of privacy or freedom of speech. TOR is a great tool for very specific people, that happens to also facilitate lots of nasty shit online. There’s enough nasty shit on Tor, or on unmoderated niche sites. We don’t want the bad rep from potentially allowing CSAM into a social network looking to bring in new people into it. Lack of moderation is exactly how you end up killing a platform… But I don’t think you want to listen to reason on this.

What I need to understand is how you envision a 0-censorship community working when there’s content that should at all times be censored, like CSAM. I don’t hear solutions to these cases, or even an acknowledgement that not all content should be protected from any sort of moderation, just complaints about content being moderated at all. Furthermore, you keep accusing everyone of arguing in bad faith but we’re all just saying the normal shit every other Lemmy user knows about Lemmy and ActivityPub.

And if I missed some point of yours, which seems like you think most of us are, blame it on laziness or smith, I’m boarding a plane and can’t be bothered

Unexpected behavior, leading to unexpected inputs to systems, often leads to failures. Put simply, nobody thought X would happen on Y service or at Z level, so nobody wrote code to handle that scenario. May sound crazy at first, but it’s quite hard to cover all possible scenarios when writing code… Or with life in general.

This sort of applies to dev work too, especially if you have ADHD. I overcome blockage by rubber ducking, but sometimes my ADHD gets strong enough that I can’t, for the life of me, sit down to write some trivial code that might as well be a typing exercise. I simply get Cursor to generate the stuff, proofread it, and now that it’s suddenly a bug smashing session instead of typing out some class or component or whatever, I overcome my blockage and can even flow. Speaking as someone that often gets blocked for weeks to months at a time, LLMs have saved me from crashing into deadlines more than a few times.

Legit question @people who know more about Theo than me, but isn’t Theo like, actually a pretty nice guy, even if right wing? Dude kinda reminds me a bit of Destin from SmarterEveryDay, who’s obviously on the redneck side of things, is right wing as far as I can tell, but is still extremely knowledgeable, incredibly chill, and actually cares about the foundations of his stances and doesn’t buy into divisionist rhetorics.

I might be assuming things and jumping to conclusions, which is why I am asking this, but I vaguely recall a video he made which clearly showed he held right wing positions but had no issue tearing down right wing propaganda and stances if they were bullshit.

Wooooosh

As someone who has a profile only for Whatsapp (used to also be Instagram), a profile for banking & finances, a profile for some stuff that needs play services, and a profile for most other stuff (main profile)…don’t use profiles unless you’re only creating one more at the most, and you’re absolutely certain there’s no need to share information between the profiles.

Graphene has had a long-standing bug from upstream AOSP, if I recall correctly, where it’ll always ask for your pin when changing profiles, and only sometimes will it allow you to use your fingerprint or alternative methods to get into your profiles. I almost never get the fingerprint option for my main profile, and have to tap back from the pin input on other profiles to get the option to use fingerprint, and not always. They do sometimes push something that loosely resembles a fix, but it’ll go back to not working after another update.

Regarding communicating between profiles, that’s hard to pull off. The curveball of having to send screenshots from banking apps, say, confirming transactions, it’s made a lot worse with profiles. I’m currently relying on my nextcloud instance to upload screenshots from finances, then downloading those screenshots from nextcloud into my WhatsApp profile, just to send a proof of transfer to someone. I’m definitely not keeping my phone like this for much longer.

All else considered, however, I’m not going back to a ROM that doesn’t respect me as the owner of my device. I’m happy to have switched to graphene and I am here to stay.

Yeah, as someone else mentioned, this step is just for creating a folder. You probably need to get more intimate with the commands you’re running to understand the process better, but I would honestly take a step back and use something more streamlined for these things.

Someone mentioned Proxmox for these things. I would also mention TrueNAS Scale. Both of those make it so that the process of spinning up containers and VMs becomes a lot more streamlined and easy to follow. They also forego a UI on the equipment you’re using, opting for a web UI you’d access from another device instead. Make no mistake, this is a good thing. 99% of things you’ll be wanting to do anywhere will be through web UIs, so that’s where you’ll want to be. The 1% of the time where you’ll be seeing your laptop server’s screen (or an SSH terminal) will be the most painful 1% of your life, and it will be when you misconfigured something and the web UI becomes inaccessible (on that note, also make sure to at least configure SSH access on something so you understand how that works). I’ve had to do this plenty of times with my pfsense box, and as a relative noob to these things as well, having to use nano and vim for editing pfsense configs to revive my server…it’s fucking horrible (sorry vim enjoyers). The good news is, you learn the hard way, but you learn. Try not to have this happen to you, or you’ll be back here soon. Once you’ve had a lot more experience with your tinkering, this will seem less daunting and you’ll be more comfortable debugging directly on your laptop server screen.

TrueNAS Scale, as the name implies, is better suited for when you want to include NAS Capatbilities on your setup. Since you mention things meant for Plex/Jellyfin setups, I’d say you could start there.

However you do mention a laptop, so I’m imagining a very basic setup where you probably have limited space or a couple of USB drives or something. You could, instead, opt for Proxmox. You lose the specific capabilities of creating complex RAID setups that TrueNAS would give you, but it sounds like you wouldn’t be needing those anyways, as they better fit a setup where you have a bunch of disks connected through SATA or PCIe interfaces. Proxmox is a lot more specialized for containers and VMs so it’s probably a good tool to get acquainted with, and might be better suited for a setup where you have just the laptop and maybe a couple of drives to toy around with.

Whichever you choose, make sure to watch YouTube videos about it, read the docs, truly understand what’s going on with that tool first, as well as how to set it up correctly. This will introduce networking concepts to you in the process, as you’ll need to understand how to access the computer through the network with a browser, as well as with SSH. Make sure you don’t ignore networking knowledge. It might seem daunting, or skippable (why bother with local domain names when you can just use the IP and port number?), but a lot of networking concepts are actually rather simple to follow, take a moment on the first few tries but become very easy to reproduce afterwards, and it will make your life easier (yeah turns out, now there’s 20 services and you forgot what ports are for what service…if only you had dedicated time to telling the network that port 69420 was for radarr.localdomain and port 42069 was for sonarr.localdomain).

I’d check out Lawrence Systems on YouTube. They make videos covering networking configs with pfsense and the like, as well as TrueNAS configs, and maybe they’ve delved on Proxmox? Craft Computing, another YouTube channel, for sure teaches about Proxmox. There’s tons of video guides for *arr services, I haven’t looked for platform-specific configs, but I’m sure you can find both videos for Proxmox and TrueNAS Scale configs. Once you get your first one, most other *arr services are very similarly configured (though not all are, some are very quirky).

Another thing you’ll need to understand is how containers work, as well as how to map things from outside the containers into them. Containers are, well, contained, and mappings are how you expose parts of the container to the outside. You’ll probably be guided to map things such as your data and the service’s config files from outside the container to better organize and persist those things. Make sure you understand this concept, where things are on your setup, where they’re getting mapped to in the container, and what this means when it comes to modifying the container (hint: it means you can delete or upgrade the container and things still work exactly as you configured them once your container is back up).

Maybe a controversial advice, but I’d steer clear of the console unless it can’t be helped, since you honestly can do a lot from the UI for the vast majority of things you’ll need to do. If you DO need to use the console, however, I’d bother ChatGPT and documentation for whatever youre doing, to make sure you understand what every command you try does. Things like “sudo mkdir xyz” should be crystal clear to you. In the case of this failed command, for instance, you should be aware that mkdir doesn’t create entire paths, but rather only specific folders. If the preceding folder doesn’t exist, the command fails, so if /home doesn’t exist, nothing else will work. If /home/user doesn’t exist, you’re not going to be creating /jackett_config, and so on. Sudo is also a very powerful keyword, which means whatever follows it is an order from the big boss and must be obeyed. As such, absolutely make sure you understand any command that starts with “sudo”, as those are the ones that can easily set fire to your entire config. If you don’t understand what it’s doing, don’t run it.

While we are on the subject of folder structures, theres no shame in looking up videos and docs explaining the Unix file structure. If youre coming from windows, this is a veeeeery easily confusing bit, and understanding where you are is very helpful.

Hopefully some of my ramblings make sense to you. Hit me up, or hit the community up, if you need more specific guidance. Things can seem daunting at first, especially if you’re new to Unix, but I promise you it becomes easier as you build good foundational knowledge.

I see where you’re coming from, because I kinda also hate the genres you mentioned in specific, but man, it’s not ALL bad. You put on some Juan Luis Guerra and he makes better bachata than anyone else you can think of. It’s actually fucking enjoyable. It took me decades to even begin to appreciate some of the more pop music (or even tolerate it, cause fuck regueton…but everyone listens to it where I live), and he definitely stands out.

That’s it, I just wanted to mention the 440.

This dude is trying to get people to think, to notice, to act, he’s trying to educate people and to help them change. Maybe don’t immediately disregard him as “not a true socialist”, maybe don’t outright jump to calling him a tankie. We’re all in this hell hole together, the least we could do is help each other out and spread the educational content, work together to give a friendly summary on our points of view, and keep moving forward.

I like his content, and I like that he’s trying, that’s my opinion on him.

Why boycott GrapheneOS? I feel a bit OOTL here, I only know the drama with the ex-lead dev, but I understand that the project as a whole is your best bet at a mobile experience that you control. Am I missing something?

Right? Twitter hasn’t stopped dead naming Twitter, for fuck’s sake

I had pretty much the same experience you did. I did randomly find a reddit post with a ublock custom filter to avoid the whole “page not loading at all” thing. Ever since, I’ve had only one ubo failure that I fixed with the routine filters refresh, and dare I say youtube’s actually been getting faster for me lately? I did have that slowdown, due to their thing that prevented the page from loading, but now it’s almost like they’ve ramped down on their efforts.

Edit: I’m here to stand corrected. Fuckers are messing with any browser that’s not theirs. Add the following filter to ublock if your video pages take 5 seconds to load: www.youtube.com###+js(nano-stb, resolve(1), 5000, 0.01)

This is an asklemmy thread, not an askgunnuts thread. Anyone from any country can answer whatever if they so please. The USA has a weird fascination with guns. This doesn’t translate to other countries at ALL. There’s enthusiasts everywhere, sure, but way less so than on murica.

I’ll one-up you, and I hope nobody I know reads this. I work from home as a web dev. I have ADHD. I sometimes work deep into the night because I procrastinate all day. I’ll be working with one hand and stroking it rock hard with another, with no real horniness or need to cum for hours. It’s just like a fidgeting thing. I’m looking at code, sleep deprived out of my mind, and somehow rock hard. I don’t get it, but I’m too stressed to care.

Are you from the US? Aren’t they phasing this out?

but literally nothing is stopping you from running your own server.

Nothing except gmail’s very strict and hard to follow guidelines for spam filtering. Whether it’s a byproduct of spam filtering or whether it’s the intended result, the fact that Google essentially controls email traffic means you’re not gonna have a good time communicating with others using your self-hosted email. This issue has been raised by self-hosters getting blacklisted, all the way to companies getting rate limited. If your intended use is to communicate with your everyday person, and considering the everyday person probably uses Gmail, you’re in for a bad time at some point down the line.

It wouldn’t be the worst idea to come out of it, to be honest.

If everything is perfectly simulated, the rules that allow consciousness to emerge are also there, and thus consciousness would emerge, regardless of whether it’s a simulation or reality. If we only simulate a consciousness without laws of reality, that consciousness would still be designed to mimic a consciousness from a reality with laws (ours), and since it would be a perfect simulation (and it would have to be so in order to run meaningful tests), that consciousness might as well be as real as us. Thus, unethical.
