2.5 Admins - A couple admins talk about tech news and admin related topics with the host.

Darknet Diaries - Stories on hacking, data breaches, and cyber crimes.

Macrodosing - A not too serious look at a range of interesting topics and conspiracies with Arian Foster and PMT commentator and a few others.

And these which are self-explanatory: Late Night Linux, Linux Unplugged, Self-Hosted

Sure… but there are a lot of variables to consider because heat pumps are not the most cost-effective solution for every situation. Too many people seem to think it is cut and dry and heat pumps are the best solution, but again, not always.

I agree that thinking is outdated, however…

The last time this topic came up, people with heat pumps said they needed to supplement their heating when having multiple days of -15F, some even said below +15F. Maybe newer heat pumps can work well enough down to these temps but the ones most people have already in their homes do not and require additional heating. There are many other factors to consider as well when determining cost-effectiveness, especially in houses with existing duct work, it’s not as simple as one just being more efficient than the other. And anyone that gets caught up by that may be served well to apply a bit more critical thinking because heat pumps are not always the best solution.

I want to present my files - wherever they may be - to all sorts of different applications which let me interact with them in different ways.

Only some self-hosted software grants us this portability.

I’d say almost everything is already covered with Samba shares and docker bind mounts. With Samba shares the data is presented across network to my Kodi clients, the file browser on my phone, and the file browsers of all my computers. And with docker bind mounts those files are presented to any services that I want to run.

Remember when they said the Rpi3 had 1Gbps speeds. That’s when they started to lose me. Pine64 has had a far better competing board going back to the Rpi3, and they don’t use scummy marketing practices like the Pi Foundation.

Thank you, didn’t realize I copied an AMP link.

The first thing I saw after reading the parent comment was a reply refuting it, with a screenshot of the dark mode. I think that’s pretty good

Yeah, but that was also me providing that screenshot… it originally had 20 upvotes and no downvotes and was the top comment by far. No one questioned it before I posted the screenshot and the comment you replied on. I don’t even use Libre Office but immediately thought, “that can not be correct,” then I installed it to take that screenshot, so I think I can be a little frustrated and annoyed over this kind of misinformation. Because if I had just taken that comment and all the upvotes as the truth, then I would be dissuaded to use it in the future, and that would be based on completely wrong information. And that’s bullshit.

Seeing so much misinformation upvoted on lemmy the last couple weeks. It’s a shame, there was a brief moment of time when I could trust comments here, but unfortunately that time passed by rather quickly.

Edit: Removed AMP link for the direct link as pointed out to me in a reply below.

Huh?

It’s interesting to me people still download things in that fashion. What are you downloading?

I occasionally download something from a web server, but not enough to care about using a download manager that might make it marginally faster. Most larger files I’m downloading are either TV shows and movies from torrents and usenet, or games on steam. All of which will easily saturate a 1Gbps connection.

It only makes a difference if the server is capping the speed per connection. If it’s not then it will not make a difference.

I apologize for coming off so harsh… I’ve just been seeing these a lot and they really annoy me. Unfortunately you were the person that was at the end of those frustrations. I was out on a ride and was thinking about my message to you and regretted it, I should have been more kind in my messaging.
