  • What is your "great I am an old person now" complaint?

    Jump

  • I was the same and then I rebuilt a server that originally took me forever to get up and running with all it's weird requirements and had it going in docker in like 30 minutes with my old settings imported in.

    I still compartmentalize individual programs into their own VM/CTs though, even when using docker.

    Still have no idea how to package one together myself though.

  • Make it make sense

    Jump

  • Right! The manufacturers know this is a bubble and aren't going to put themselves into debt to build new factories! They're going to ride the bubble til it pops and then try to go back to normal, but significantly richer.

  • What 'bad' movie could you fix with a simple casting change?

    Jump

  • Honestly, any movie Leto is in, replacing him with Jim Carrey would improve it.

  • Samsung to halt SATA SSD production, leaker warns of up to 18 months of SSD price pressure, worse than Micron ending consumer RAM

    Jump

  • Right‽ I don't think anyone expected spinners to outlast SATA SSDs!

  • Capitalism isn't the problem, THIS is the problem, and I've watched it roll over us for 40 years. [3 min. video]

    Jump

  • Right‽

    "the problem isn't capitalism! It's [the natural consequences of capitalism]!"

    Like, I'm sorry, but to me, this isn't the stunning argument OP seems to think it is.

  • What was good while it lasted?

    Jump

  • Yeah, but MP was very obviously a "designed for Enshittification" company when they were charging like $20 for unlimited movies in a month and paying out full price for movie tickets that in my area were around $16 ... if I used it twice they lost a lot of money. Hell, if I used it 3x in 2 months they still lost money.

    For my family, it was very much a "this isn't going to last, enjoy it while you can" program..

    It did definitely show that people not going to movies isn't a shift in people's enjoyment at theaters and is instead very clearly a cost issue. Price it appropriately and people will be back in the seats. Price it too high and they'll just wait the 3 months until it comes out on streaming/disc or just completely forget about it altogether

    Just my $.02

    ETA: You're willing to overlook sticky floors or whatever at a $5 matinee, you're not going to overlook it paying nearly $20 and the nicer chairs are now an expectation and not just a 'value add', so that's not enough!

  • Fooling IoT devices as if they have internet access is it possible? (Yeelight minas ceiling light goes unavailable after physical switch-off without internet.)

    Jump

  • For a camera I've got that I don't care too much about, I had to give it a ~50KB network connection out and then it gets its handshake, but, doesn't have a good enough connection to actually upload video and then all the local features stay working. Eventually, I'll replace it, but, it's monitoring a place that I don't care about too much, so, it's low on the priority list.

    Unfortunately, a light doesn't need much in the way of a connection to begin with, but, if it needs some kind of handshake, maybe you can watch the traffic with Wireshark and whitelist that specific traffic or see if someone else has done the work for it (a quick search didn't show anything for me, but, I haven't gone in depth or anything)

  • How many instances have you been orphaned from?

    Jump

  • Same for me, looks like us diverging for the third one saved it :-D

  • r/Drama

    Jump

  • It's supposed to be a place to showcase art, not a free place to advertise for your store.

    The dude(ette) didn't even post a link though from what I can see, so, the reaction is insane.

    Print on demand is easy, so, I'd think any artist who's showing off their work online should have a printer that they've run off a few test prints with already ready to go, in case people are interested enough to ask about purchases, but, I'm not trying to moderate a magazine/community and prevent it from being a giant advertisement, so, ::shrug::

  • [Poll] What Lemmy/Piefed client(s) do you use?

    Jump

  • On mobile, I use Interstellar to connect to a MBin instance.

  • Trump says he plans to cancel most of Biden’s executive orders

    Jump

  • Agreed, they're not supposed to be laws, they're supposed (as far as I understand it anyways) to essentially be "as the head of the Executive branch, here is how I want my underlings to handle/interpret this particular thing that the Executive branch already has authority over" ... it really doesn't make sense that they'd last any longer than that particular Presidents term(s).

  • Anyone used to watch Stargate? There's a new show coming out

    Jump

  • Love the "as long as they don't make it woke" comment in the link, as if the smartest human on the show (Yeah, I said it, Rodney) wasn't a woman and one of the most iconic characters wasn't a black man. If this cast launched today they'd call it woke nonsense.

    The article didn't say if this is a reboot or if it's set in the same universe as the originals. For myself, I'm very interested in a continuation, but almost completely uninterested in a reboot.

  • I discovered Resident Alien recently and I'm loving it

    Jump

  • Absolutely loved this show and very glad it wasn't one that either:

    Got cancelled unexpectedly

    Stayed on so long it completely lost its plot

    Don't get me wrong, I feel it could easily have lasted a few more seasons, but, it was really good for its entire run and that's not a bad thing either.

    Also - Don't skip the intro! It's slightly different every time and basically hilarious every time!

  • Using Fail2ban to protect exposed services

    Jump

  • Yeah, I had a overall bad experience with everything being buggy and then even devices that weren't connected to tailscale would start trying to ping the tailnet address instead of the local (wasn't using their funky bridge subnets feature or whatever it's called, so I don't know why it would happen).

    Their magicDNS is cool in theory but caused me nothing but problems. Once I turned off their DNS and set up my own DNS server for it though, it's gotten to basically be as seamless as they claim it's supposed to be from the start. I'm no longer having any issues with it at all.

  • 'Next Step Is Primaries': Calls for Schumer Ouster After Leading Shutdown Surrender

    Jump

  • Not when Dems always have the needed number of turncoats no matter what the situation!

    Need two, don't worry, two will fall on the sword and make it (not) happen!

    Need 8? 2 who are retiring and 6 who don't have a re election coming up will make it (not) happen!

    Anything to stop too much progress from being made!

  • Same for me. I didn't see 2, but this one looked good until I saw Leto was in it, then it was a hard no
