  • I'm not good at this life thing.

  • People who feel this way almost always just need to exercise more

  • I think meal replacement shakes are really helpful when you’re stuck in a headspace like this. I’m talking things like Soylent, Huel, etc.

    If you buy the powder in bulk it is much more affordable than fast food and quite easy to prepare.

    People will argue that they’re worse than whole foods, which is true, but it’s still much better than nothing, lunchables, gas station food, snacks, etc.

    Beyond that I think the best thing is to try and reduce the scope of what you want to accomplish so it doesn’t feel overwhelming. Instead of worrying about making food for 3 meals a day everyday. Try instead to make one meal and go from there.

  • Oh, it has promise for sure. I hope all the kinks get worked out.

  • It seems to have a lot of issues on Linux though. AMD is still the king on Linux if you want open source drivers and a decent GPU.

  • Its Linux performance leaves a lot to be desired.. not even close to the 4060 on Linux

  • How can I determine how much to contribute to charity to reduce US federal taxes?

    Jump

  • Tax write offs don’t really work the way people think they do. You reduce your taxable income by the amount you donate but you don’t pay 100% of your taxable income to the government.

    So charity is like an inverted tax where you lose 80% of your money instead of the 20% you pay to the government.

    Rich people make can make it work sometimes by donating assets that have an inflated value and otherwise don’t translate well to “income”.

    Businesses operate very differently because they’re taxed on profits not income. So when you hear about businesses not paying taxes it is because they’ve cooked the books to have less “profit”.

  • What side hustles have you personally seen work pretty well?

    Jump

  • The only one I’ve heard of working really well was 3D printing copyrighted material that is usually way overpriced. Board game pieces, figurines, etc.

  • Thank you for pointing that out. I'm not familiar with IPFS but I tend to agree there's no free lunch here. People think you can wave the blockchain wand and free computing appears but there's always costs built in somewhere.

  • What would an IPFS solution look like here? That's a genuine question. I don't have much experience with IPFS. It seems like it isn't really used outside of blockchain applications.

  • For sure, I'll add it to the list. :)

  • The Lemmy server config indicates that is an optional setting to improve user privacy so requests don't ever hit the original server from the client. Those cached files are only temporary and will be deleted after some time. So it's not really full blown duplication.

    The default setting is to only generate the thumbnails and store those locally (indefinitely?) but even that can be turned off. I checked and it appears that lemmy.world has the thumbnail generation disabled so all images from other instances just link to the original on that instance.

  • Are the images duplicated when shared? My understanding is that only a link to the file is replicated across servers and duplication comes from users manually uploading the same file to another server.

    My website does not do any deduplication at this time.

  • Yeah, I wish it could be cheaper but I’m not a corporation. Instead I’m dependent on them to make a simpler product.

    The target audience is certainly not developers because they can jump through the hoops to setup their own S3 + CDN or similar.

  • Jortage is a really interesting approach. It definitely helps reduce the impact of the file hosting problem but it doesn’t fully address the underlying cost issue. The cost of storing files grows every month indefinitely while donations typically don’t.

    I would like to see a file hosting pool come to lemmy though. So I will look into it. :)

  • The files are uploaded to two separate S3 buckets. One is backed by Wasabi and the other is Backblaze. So if one fails, randomly bans my account, etc then I can switch the primary to the other and setup another mirror afterwards.

    Compute is hosted by fly.io and the CDN is bunny.net
