Right? I just opened my computer and found a mess of wires and these weird boards that look like miniature cities jammed in there. That would make great storage space. I think I'll just rip them o
Last year right before closing there were some big changes as though bots came in. I will be surprised if it isnt the same again this year removing anti spez or reddit content.
I often walk close to roads for a while in shorts. You wouldn't believe the disgusting grease that washes down my legs when I shower after that. Big roads are vile to be around.
The implication is not that it doesn’t pay well, it’s that it’s dangerous and very hard on your body. Work as a construction worker till your 50 (if you don’t die in an accident before then) and your body will hate you for it
I had UrBackup running for 6 months+. It wasn’t reliably backing things up, configuring it to be accessible via Internet is almost impossible, adding clienta is a hassle and the config isn’t very user friendly.
Furthermore I got the inpression, that it’s backups aren’t reliable; restoring files without UrBackup might be impossible.
That’s why I’m now back at a incremental rsync backup script. It’s reliable, you can just restore things by copying them back via ssh and it uses a lot less space (!!!) than the UrBackup backups.
What users are voluntarily pro-spez (and by voluntarily, I mean their paychecks aren’t jeopardized by dissention)?
I have met plenty of anti-spez users, and I have met plenty of users who just DNGAF, but I have yet to meet a single actual bona fide user who is ‘pro-spez’.
Some people just like to be contrarian. Others have been fed up with the protests because they themselves were not impacted, they are the ultimate narcissists.
I’ve seen some Simping. Could be Trolls, could be quietly on the payroll. Same kind of people simping for Musk.
That’s the real thing. This all didn’t have to go down like this. Asking for a small API fee is sane. Having a small amount of transactions per month free would have allowed all the mod tools to continue to operate, hell even registered dev accounts. This problem as been solved a thousands times over.
But all this landed gentry bull shit and complete tonedef messaging. He’s just another ass who’s going to write his company into the ground.
For me it was the AMA that was the last straw. It was so disingenuous - all the responses had been pre-written and were copied and pasted from other previously written stock, the only answered questions were cherry-picked from reddit shills, and the several dozen most upvoted questions were completely ignored and never responded to. The very concept of “AMA” is an idea that was birthed on reddit, for reddit, and the foundational core tenets of AMA were ignored and disregarded. Ignored and disregarded…is also exactly what they think of their users, subreddit moderators, and 3rd party developers.
