Not a single network file transfer protocol in the list.

Imagine not knowing about stuff like SCP/SFTP or SMB.

Cryophilia ,

Pfft I’ve bet you’ve never even tried cross-pollinating a syncmap blockchain to your distributed SM-IP 42G node

Noob

Ghoelian ,

I’m pretty sure the average user doesn’t even know what a “server” really is, let alone know how to set up an FTP server.

lud ,

Imagine not adding every single way to transfer a file to a simple meme.

What is the world coming too‽

Where SD card?

Natanael ,

One double sided USB SD card reader with adapter for multiple cards sizes

SkyezOpen ,

I have a USB c multi adapter somewhere. Had SD, micro SD, USB a to put a mouse on a phone or a regular flash drive. It was nifty until I lost it. A lot of modern mobos come with a USB c port so it’s almost a universal tool.

Most of the newest phones can’t take SD cards anymore.

One of many reasons I haven’t replaced mine.

Every time you email a file to yourself so you can pull it up on your friend’s laptop, Tim Berners-Lee sheds a single tear.

Sad that this XKCD from 2011 is still just as accurate today…

Not quite, we now have options like wormhole that make it pretty simple

Only because IPv6 and self-hosting are not mainstream yet. But if it were commonplace for everyone’s home to have something as simple as a public file server or SSH server, then this problem would be trivialized.

Opera tried to make self-hosting mainstream back in 2009 with Opera Unite, but regular people just weren’t interested. It was a web server built in to the browser, which had a few apps like a whiteboard, a way to write notes, file transfers, etc.

Also, IPv6 is already mainstream in some countries. In the USA, several of the mobile networks are IPv6-only, using 464XLAT to allow connections to legacy IPv4-only servers. Comcast/Xfinity was also the first ISP to roll out IPv6 at a wide scale, and the majority of their customers had IPv6 connectivity way back in 2014 or so.

Globally, around 50% of traffic to Google and 60% of traffic to Facebook are using IPv6.

Eheran ,

Just send it over telegram. Even Whatsapp allows that size I assume.

IronKrill ,

For sure, let me just make an account, install the app, find and add them- wait, he drove over with a USB? Jokes aside, thanks for the recommendation, but it’s not any simpler than the 2011 solutions if you haven’t set it up already.

Eheran ,

Who is not already using Telegram and/or Whatsapp?

IronKrill ,

No one I have met in Canada has ever asked to message over telegram or whatsapp.

Eheran ,

Ah right, you are using the Apple thing over there?

Bakkoda , in The overworked IT person who just happened to quit his job on 18 July 2024

I was on vacation. They laid off my boss 2 weeks ago. They laid off my bosses boss 3 weeks ago. Guess who no one could contact?

I found out about all of this 2 days after the fact. Best vacation ever.

meliaesc ,

I’d start the job hunt now…

Bakkoda ,

Way ahead of you. GSK/Haleon looks to be unraveling in their toothpaste division. I’m only a long term contact worker so I’ve always got another job lined up. I’ve got another 9 months on this tour but i don’t see them keeping me, i cost too much.

wheeldawg ,

Wtf did they honestly expect from you in that situation anyway? Do they really think you would come back from vacation to deal with that? From what I can tell, fixing it is barely beyond a T1 hekpdesk amount of knowledge, just an annoying process. Unless there’s more to it, I haven’t looked heard at the details but that’s the gist I’m hearing.

But unless they’re going to triple my vacation length (in terms of paid days off in other words) and maxing out all my upgrade options for the next one I’ma have to say they can get bent.

Basically they gotta pay for the best version possible of that trip (assuming there was a trip) and give me enough time to take 2 more.

I ain’t taking a work call on vacation.

Bakkoda ,

Funny story. My boss vetoed work phones as a cost savings and at first there was a squawking fest but honestly he handled all communication to us and protected us from so much bullshit. Now he’s gone and no one could figure out how to get in contact with us aside from email/teams.

Bluetooth file transfer my beloved

db2 ,

That only works if the target is near. You may as well have said semaphore or signal fire.

potustheplant ,

It’s also pretty slow

Ghoelian ,

Also a lot of desktops don’t have bluetooth

amazing_stories ,

And even the Desktops with Bluetooth can often have in incompatible version for file transfers. Bluetooth is a mess.

Been saying 5ever since I was about 5. That was 5ever ago and I thought I was a clever boy.

That's a weird scale.

Completely bizarre scaling choice.

@DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

You mean completely amazing scale choice

Rhaedas ,

Such techniques are often used to sell a conclusion with data that doesn't agree. Scaling, cropping, etc. Visuals are very powerful, and people will look at a graph and assume it's correct.

BreadOven ,

Agreed, it’s total bullshit. This sort of stuff should be outlawed.

@rem26_art@fedia.io avatar

one glance and you'd assume that the average Indonesian man only comes up to the calf of the average man from The Netherlands

ramble81 ,

I was trying to figure out what was bothering me about it. Basically 1’0” - 5’0” is 1 tick mark part foot and then it’s 1 tick mark per inch. So basically you have a 12:1 ratio for the first 60 inches so it’s not a linear, logarithmic, exponential or any normal type of scale.

takeda ,

Or simply, according to the scale from top of the head to calves is only one foot. Their head is only an inch tall.

danc4498 ,

Their feet starts at the 4 foot 8 inches mark.
