  • Discord to Require ID or Face Scan Next Month for Full Access

  • Teamspeak needs to get off their ass and release the Teamspeak 5 server already

  • It makes perfect sense. Names are incredibly important to widespread adoption. As are pleasing colors.

    Many people don’t know what a Stoat is, or that it’s an animal. A meaningless nonsense word (In the mind of a normie) will not drive them to use it.

  • The problem is there isn’t plenty of other options.

    Discord is one of those services independent web folk have been after a replacement for for years.

  • DVDs and public transit: Boycott drives people to ditch Big Tech to protest ICE

    Jump

  • I highly doubt it. Those issues were with overvoltage problems and the n100 is low power. The thing sips electricity even when under load

  • The N100 would work great, that’s what I have at home, the S12 pro with the n100, it’s just getting harder to find.

    Just don’t get the N95

  • If you wanted something to get started for streaming and you are space limited (in your home) I would recommend this as your server:

    • https://a.co/d/00MhaEgG the Beelink S13 which is under $300 and will serve your streaming needs for a very long time.

    And for storage you could get this 4TB external drive and plug it into the Beelink and sit it right on top for $130:

    And if you have an Nvidia shield I’m pretty sure you could also skip the S13 and just plug the drive into your shield and run Jellyfin or what have you directly on that. I know lots of people brag about their big overbuilt servers, but you don’t have to go down that road at all if all you want is to store and stream your media.

  • To a degree yes, but not nearly as bad as other components right now. You can at the very least buy a single “small” HDD like 4TB for pretty cheap that is far more than what you’d get from big tech on an average storage plan.

    This is subject to change but as of today, you can get this for cheap

  • It’s not. I have a server with dozens of TBs of storage which is a 2011 Lenovo tower I got for free out of someone’s garage. It doesn’t take a whole lot to store things.

  • YSK that TikTok is harming children at an industrial scale. We know this because we obtained internal documents from the company

    Jump

  • Can’t say the law for kids to wear helmets on bikes has done much to get them to do so. Though I don’t think bike helmet laws did much to rob the population of their privacy either.

    The thing to know about IPV6 is that while being able to read the addresses and memorize the different kinds seem daunting, the implementation behind it is actually much simpler than IPv4 today.

    The biggest mental hurdle to get over is that the way we use IPv4 today is informed by our need to work around the global lack of IPv4 addresses. With IPv6, it sorta turns back the clock to when every machine could just have a globally routable IP address. Private reserved ranges for local lans, NAT, etc aren’t necessary with IPv6

  • They are not. It’s not the governments job to parent the nations children, (and conveniently erode our privacy in the process)

  • It would cost an amount of money, but it wouldn’t really be a hugely expensive undertaking nor would it take longer than 5 years tops if done with any level of competency. There are 8 American cities that each individually have a higher population than the country of Estonia. The administrative overhead isn’t very big to begin with.

  • Should I be using Debian?

    Jump

  • In the present, but in the past too.

  • Should I be using Debian?

    Jump

  • Mint is based on Ubuntu which is based on Debian. If you were spinning up a new server from scratch, I would definitely recommend Debian over Mint, but realistically if you’re not currently having any issues there’s no reason to rearchitect your whole server just for that.

  • This kinda thing is like Debians primary use case lol

    Rent is theft

    Jump

  • If houses were costly to own (and rent out), landlords wouldn't exist.

    It is quite literally a free money machine that rewards you with money for simply having money to begin with. So much so that the term “rent seeking” was popularized to refer to things outside of real estate that are designed to extract wealth from other people without providing any actual value in return.

    Jump

  • People always say this as if renting isn’t the exact same way but without the benefit of equity.

    Whatever it is you’re paying for when it comes to your house, (Mortage, taxes, insurance, roof repairs, etc) the renter is also paying. Landlords do not “eat” any of the costs associated with owning a house. The renters pay for everything through rent.
