It's surprising how much just keeping track can mess with behavior, eh?

NUCs are great for applications where you need a reliable, powerful PC that is basically an appliance. I've bought dozens for various purposes.

sj_zero , 11 months ago to fediverse in Is now a good time to start a peertube channel?

Real talk, start a peertube channel but only if you're doing it alongside other platforms.

The top channels on peertube get maybe 70 views per video and they've got big organizations behind them quite often.

If you going to do it, do it because it's something you want to do, not because you expect views, or fans, or anything like that. If you happen to stumble upon success, great. But that's not something you should expect because more likely than not it'll just be yet another games channel.

sj_zero , 11 months ago to nostupidquestions in Data privacy: how to counter the "I have nothing to hide" argument?

"Of course you do."

Do you want your mother to know how you dirty talk to your girlfriend, or what sort of porn you watch? do you want her watching you jerk off? Do you want your boss to know about that rash on your dick? Going further, do you think every pretty girl you walk up to should know about every dirty thought you have about them? Do you want that guy you hate at work to actually know exactly what you want to do to him?

Anyone who thinks they have nothing to hide aren't thinking hard enough.
