So this is a good idea in principle, but there are a lot of sites that don’t follow the “lemmy.tld” format. I checked the list of instances connected to our site, lemmy.ninja. We’ve been up for a few days, so we’ve accumulated a lot of instances by now. Following the Lemmy.* format gave me 285 out of 585 of our current instances. So just under 50%.
@Kichae pointed out here why it may not really matter too much. As long as everything is pretty well cross pollinated, things should be discoverable. I imagine the bigger the user base the better it will be.
English, French, German, Spanish. The main languages descended from Latin. They all have extremely similar alphabets that imo don’t resemble Latin characters at all.
You sure you’ve seen thr Latin alphabet? Maybe you’ve mixed it up with Greek? I’m not trying to be mean or anything, I’m just really confused… the pronunciation is certainly different but the characters are mostly same
Jajaja I read your comment a few times and only got more confused. Latin actually partially comes from Greek which is why there are several letters in commonEdit: accidentally posted Spanish Wikipedia, my bad
The nice thing about syncing services like Vaultwarden is that all your synced devices kind of act like backups. You should still keep proper backups too, of course, but this makes me sleep a bit better at night at least.
Please God, I beg you all to do this. I mean no disrespect to y’all at all.
I have been using a bidet/health faucet/Jet spray all my life. I was so shocked and disgusted when I found out people in the west used toilet paper 🤢🤢
I’ve used toilet paper a few times in emergencies and I’ve regretted it everytime. The difference between water and paper in cleaning your butt is so vast.
This makes me anxious… How do you cope with all these different technologies… I mean everything is evolving so fast and everyone wants to have his OWN way of doing things… This is messed up ! Right now IT seems a big maze of technologies and nobody seems to be in sync with each other… specially in devOP and Networking…
I don’t know about Podman, but it’s baffling how much you need to know and understand in IT… And If every 3 years you have to relearn everything, it’s a never ending chase of dying and abandoned technologies and a wast of time :/
@deepdive@witten I think the more you dig the more you find you could learn, probably like every other topic with enough people on it. If you want to keep it simple you mostly still have the chance to just use a little linux machine and put everything there the "old" way. For example: I spend some 3-4 months building a kubernetes stack for my homelab, getting everything to run perfectly, then scrapped everything to rewrite it again with a bit of ansible and a single machine because it justworks
I think the more you dig the more you find you could learn
True, but it’s really frustrating to spend time to learn something that’s maybe going to be useless ? Just look at networking in linux distros between networkd, NetworkManager, netplan, nmtui, nmcli, networkctl, ifupdown… all working in different locations and all having their own way of doing things… This is is fucked up :/
Imagine learning docker’s all subtilities and next year it’s deprecated in favor of another technology with his own flavors and commands… :/
@deepdive Yes this can get frustrating if you let it get to you. I‘m 25 years into this and all i learned is how to look stuff up and forgot the rest. I don‘t learn technologies, i try to reduce them to some basic knowledge so i can handle them well enough. Things change all the time and i‘m too lazy to keep track of all that stuff, docker is dead. Its especially true in my actual playground at work where we are using kubernetes. Some of the most complex and fast paced stuff i ever worked with.
And this is why the trick is learning and focusing the technologies that stick at a “lower level” of the stack, and that have been battle-tested by years or even decades so it’s understood that they won’t just “go away”. Like eg.: learning C or Fortran instead of learning ${niche_language_of_year_20xx}. For the docker bracket for example the near equivalent would be hmmm I’d say (s)chroot.
Then again from here to around 5 years docker will the the schroot of its tech bracket.
I dunno, I think part of the trick is not learning every single new technology that comes your way. So much of tech these days is just fashion, and you can safely ignore most stuff until there’s a deafening drumbeat bashing down your door. And even then, you should ask if the drumbeat really suits your use cases or if everyone’s in such a fervor over it because it’s fashionable and they’re using it for things it’s not suited for.
Don’t give into the FOMO. Use your judgment. And don’t worry about Podman if what you’re doing now is working!
Not really, no. I have an HDD and an SSD both in a same machine. Data in SSD gets copied to HDD everyday. I don’t have any remote backup yet. How do you do your remote backup?
As much as I understand beehaw admin has every right to defedorate with any instance, and I respect and appreciate beehaw admins looking after the community.
However, it seems this instance is no longer for me. I want to see more content by more people. There needs to be a balance of content quantity vs content quality. I personally think that beehaw is leaning too much towards quality for my personal liking.
I switched over to Netim after Gandi announced their new prices and removed the free mailboxes. They’re a bit pricey (close to current Gandi pricing) but it comes with a mailbox (1GB) and a 250MB website.
They were close to Gandi pricing. Gandi just hiked up their prices on most TLDs by 75-100%. For my next renewal all my domains show up as €28 now. Netim is actualy looking pretty good right now with €15-22. 😆
Never heard of them, but just looking at a registrar comparison chart, their renewal costs are pretty high. eg. $20 for .wiki renewal at Porkbun and $30 at Hover. Maybe they bundle in a lot of services along with it that make the price worth it? but unless you’re taking full advantage of those (if they’re offered) then you could def get a better deal elsewhere.
Is believing in Anarchism illegal in the USA? I don't think so. The only way in the USA to get on a watchlist is to be either a high felony criminal or a terrorist. Neither the CIA nor the FBI have the time and resources to monitor everyone at the same time.
