I turned my ten year old Toshiba i7 with a cracked LCD into a virtual fish tank after the last fish died.

I used to use my 10 year old old netbook (intel atom n270 2gb ram - ubuntu server) as a server for Plex, calibre, pihole, ssftp.

Now I am using a Raspberry Pi 4 8GB Ram, as it consumes less electricity. Old laptops are consuming (except HDDs/SSDs) 10-30 watt. Raspberry Pi in indle consumes 2watt and when i am using it at mac power with an external hdd consumes 12watt.

No, I use the old desktops for that.

Old laptops usually seem to go to other people:

  • My first one I gave one to a girl who’s house burned down in my street.
  • The second one went to my ex who is on really hard financial times and the old Macbook she got from another good soul died on her.
  • The third one I traded in with my mom who really wanted a light one, and in exchange she contributed to…
  • My fourth one that had more power for compiling things in my studies. This one I still have and use occasionally.

How's the dpad and sticks on that thing, and how does it handle arcade and Saturn emulation? Those are kinds of games I'd really like to have in a handheld with this thing.

I don’t know if he’s been drinking too much or too little, I forget how it works with him, but he hasn’t been drinking exactly the right amount, and it’s driving all you wonderful bastards over here to fill out gullets with Futurama branded mackerel

Beehaw did it already :)

Not that I blame them.

Beehaw’s degeneration is actually temporary. They said they would like to refederate with major instances when there’s better mod tools available. The problem is they’re only 4 admins and don’t really have the capability to moderate that well right now.

We know, they continually remind us.

In your entire comment history, this is actually the least hostile comment you've ever made. Amazing

lemmy , to mildlyinfuriating in Because PTSD isn’t a thing ?

As a Veteran who has PTSD and does not do well on 4th of July. I fought for people's freedom. Let them enjoy their fireworks and I'll stay on my farm fat away taking care of my turkeys who also hate fireworks.

Not everyone can do that. A form of entrainment doesn’t override the right for someone now to experience ptsd episodes in their own home.

TskUghPfftUhh ,

There is being considerate of other’s life experiences and then there is being unreasonable. There’s so many things that can trigger PTSD in people, are you suggesting we stop doing anything that may trigger someone’s trauma? Some people get triggers from benign things (my mother used to suffer traumatic flashbacks from certain smells such as wet mud, I get panic attacks if someone comes up behind me and touches me, I’ve met someone who gets triggered by cars backfiring or balloons popping). The point is that fireworks, mud, people touching you, and backfiring cars are a part of normal life. There are a TONNE of possible triggers, we couldn’t possibly avoid every one of them for every sufferer out there. It isn’t up to the rest of the world to change their lives to revolve around us and our issues. It’s our own responsibility to try to cope and deal with our problems as best we can. It sucks. I say this as someone who suffers from severe PTSD/agoraphobia among a number of other mental health issues that I have been working on for many years. It’s really unfair that this has happened to us but it’s also not fair to expect everyone else in the neighbourhood to stop having fun because we are sadly conditioned to have a traumatic response to something.

Draedron ,

Who had their freedom threatened?

Maggoty ,

Iraqis. Look up Saddam. Then look up AQ. There’s a reason the local militias ended up working with us instead of against us.

Look up how many Iraqis were fucking killed by America and tell me how those hundreds of thousands of corpses are so fucking free now.
