  • Will anything concrete change in your life --- will you get kicked out of your home, will you suddenly be financially responsible for things you previously weren't, etc.?

    If it's any consolation, a lot of us don't feel like adults, and that's ok! My kids seem to think I'm a grown up, so I managed to fool them at least.

    Just keep learning as you go, and ask questions. We all love talking about things we know/have experience with (just ask the average Lemmy user what Linux distro you should install...), and there's basically no such thing as "cheating" when it comes to figuring out how to be an adult.

    One day at a time!

  • Fare from Mars back to Earth should always be free.

  • "Can the US lose in a way that allows the crazies in office to save face in their eyes?" seems an important question to me. Because if the options are the US clearly losing vs. the US clearly losing but nuking Iran so everyone loses...

  • I wonder if there's a legal difference between companies adding a tariff line item to the invoice vs. just raising prices (not that there's a moral difference IMHO).

  • "...I really don't want to have to wipe the thing because it's running a headless OS"

    I feel like logging in as root on a headless system and hoping you type the command(s) to restore functionality is a rite of passage.

  • AWS was recently "having issues" due to the Iran situation --- same thing I wonder?

  • After reading a few of these I feel like I was either a very boring grad student, or my professors were all very chill. (Or maybe just subject to male privilege.)

    A few run-ins with IT, but I don't think I ever got nasty letters from professors...

  • ...or is it about an hour from damn time? I can never remember.

  • I've been pleased with it. Family is very relaxed about projects like this, but yeah it's low power draw. I don't think I have anything special set up but the right thing to do for power would be to spin down drive when not in use, as power is dominated by the spinning rust.

    Uptime is great. Only hiccups are that it can choke when compiling the ZFS kernel modules, triggered on kernel updates. It's an rpi 3/1GB RAM (I keep failing at forcing dkms to use only 1 thread, which would probably fix these hiccups 🤷).

    That said, it is managed by me, so sometimes errors go unnoticed. I had recent issues where I missed a week of rsync because I switched from pihole to technitium on my home server and forgot to point the remote rpi there. This would all have been fixed with proper cron email setup...I'm clearly not a professional :)

  • Not the same, but for my Immich backup I have a raspberry pi and an HDD with family (remote).

    Backup is rsync, and a simple script to make ZFS snapshots (retaining X daily, Y weekly). Connected via "raw" WireGuard.

    Setup works well, although it's never been needed.

  • Historically, does the youngest generation have the least amount of disposable income? As in, older generations (e.g., Millennials) are "family aged" so may need housing for a family instead of one/a couple.

    In my 20s and early 30s I didn't make much money yeah, but I had basically zero expenses other than food and shelter. With kids...oh boy. Daycare alone costs way more than my salary in grad school.

  • I wonder, legally, if there is a difference between the companies that simply raised prices, and the ones who kept the price the same but added another line item to the invoice that covered the tariff.

    IANAL, but for the former, it seems like the company may be entitled to keep the money (of course it's morally wrong). For the latter though, it seems like maybe (???) there's some stronger legal pressure on the companies.

    Or not. But at least CAH is doing the right thing, as others have pointed out!

  • Indeed. The quoted passage made it sound like this was unique naval terminology, as opposed to standard nautical terminology. It's not wrong, I just thought it was worded peculiarly.
