Do you feel you have outgrown media sources or discontinued them for other reasons?

It’s kind of silly, but I still really dig the idea behind torrenting and peer to peer sharing of data. It’s cool to think about any old computer helping pass along some odd bits & bytes of data, whether a goofy drawing or strange story.

Rules:...

I follow a lot of subjects and diverse interests but occasionally I catch myself staring at something I thought I knew and realize I’m not quite there....

hardware seems solid, software is so old even SSL certificates are out of date. I downloaded the ISRG Root X1 certificate to update them and even then stock safari doesn’t work with many webpages, including apple’s....

I have a bookstack instance self-hosted and I quick like the program and workflow. I like having ‘books’ of information to separate/organize my information. It feels very much like folder heirarchy to me, and while that has its issues, I prefer it. Being able to add tags to pages helps alleviate some of those issues and...

Had someone contact me because a browser interface was ‘down’ and it was actually a cert issue. It surprised me that in an IT context, this person didn’t have a basic understanding of SSL certs. They didn’t even know how to add a cert exception....

I would like to know of a community where I can post things that I write to myself. I’m not capable enough to make my own community yet, and I’ve got a lot to say....

I’ve always held the belief that music wasn’t better in the past, people just have survivorship bias. What are your genuine favorite albums of the last few years?...

Are there Linux Youtubers whose content is targeted not necessarily for those who are deeply interested in linux (even at beginner level) and foss’s news, but for those who use linux for daily basis, like for viewer’s study or their work?...

I feel like every two years I need to call my carrier and complain if I want a decent deal. They will do things like upgrade my plan on their website to have 10 extra gigabytes of data but won’t upgrade me to it until I contact them. There’s also all the new member exclusive deals that I feel make it impractical to just sit...

I hear it in movies so the time. We’re going upstate. I went upstate. Etc...

When they say that “they have an army of lawyers” or that Disney has more lawyers than animators and things like that, do they tho? Is an army of lawyers really effective? Do companies actually have an “army” of lawyers to redact and sign documents?

I see posts talking about good BIFL items but I don’t hear much about the other side of products that are bad or products you bought but don’t even use.

Hey all! I’m wondering if someone can help me pick between these two apps. They seem to be the most commonly recommended Android front-ends for OpenStreetMaps, but I’m wondering what the pros/cons/differences are. Thanks in advance!

Its pretty much in the title. In university I really didn’t pay attention in our Ethics class because it focused on patents and Therac-25 studies, and I feel like with the way things are going as a software developer, we should have a clearer understanding of the philosophy and impact of ethical ramifications besides “AI...

It reminds me a bit of techno...

A few things that are accessible within the USA include:...

Extras/other people in the background are acceptable to meet the criteria but ideally with no human/entity on the screen at all that isn’t played by the same actor....

I’ve never had an opportunity to watch a live event of smth I really wanted due to living in the middle of nowhere. What’s in your wishlist?

I always thought of it like this: if a workplace makes you feel devalued or is toxic (gaslighting and ranting about you behind your back), you quietly find new pastures....
