xyguy@startrek.websitetohomelab@lemmy.ml•first attempt at a homelab, please any adviceEnglish2·27 天前USB ssds seem to have a lot of weird issues being used for a nas drive. Sometimes its a power management thing on the SSD itself, sometimes its something odd with the USB controller on the host. Occasionally the power supply of the sff pc doesnt have enough amps for all of the peripherals. Using an intermediary like a usb hub makes all of these issues worse since you add another device with its own potential conflicts.
Not to say its not possible to do, but USB drives and NAS’s rarely play nice together.

xyguy@startrek.websiteto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How many people are only still alive because they don't want their suicide hurting others as much as they hurt every day?English25·4 个月前Been there. Reason I didnt is because other people would bear the shit if I did. Im in a much better place at the moment but I felt exactly the way ypu do about the world.
There is a fuckload of propaganda, and a lot of it is meant to make you lose hope at ever seeing the system change. That makes the opinion that things can and might improve and you are going to be a part of it, no matter how small the most radical thing of all.
Genuinely what helped me through it was volunteering. Everything is shit wall to wall BUT this one tiny thing is better than it was because of me. Its a sustaining feeling for sure.
Keep hanging in there for the ones you love, and the ones that love you.
xyguy@startrek.websiteto Fuck AI@lemmy.world•My Immortal is a better story than Altman's AI slopEnglish18·5 个月前Its sort of related to the reason that Sharknado isnt a good movie but The Room is even though they both objectively suck.
A genuine but shitty attempt at art will always be more valuable and interesting than a soulless replication of the thing its trying to emulate.
xyguy@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•'Writing is on the wall for spinning rust': IBM joins Pure Storage in claiming disk drives will go the way of the dodo in enterprisesEnglish1·5 个月前The main point is that the disk controller gets exponentially more complicated as capacity increases and that the problem isnt with space for the nand chips bit that the controller would be too power hungry or expensive to manufacture for disks bigger than around 4tb.

xyguy@startrek.websiteto Technology@beehaw.org•Microsoft to remove the Location History feature in WindowsEnglish7·6 个月前The Amount of Ads you see won’t change, just their relevance to you.
I would also like to make a motion as a member of the panel that a critter would not be anything less than half the size of a mouse. Bugs aren’t critters unless they are big spiders for instance but a tiny frog definitely is.
Bees and wasps I dont know.
xyguy@startrek.websiteto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•In case you've ever wondered why the Windows control panel was so awful...English2·7 个月前Right. Just make a super super good compatibility layer so whatever you have next will be compatible and give up on Windows proper. They can call it Windows 360.
xyguy@startrek.websiteto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•In case you've ever wondered why the Windows control panel was so awful...English7·7 个月前Honestly, it seems like it would be easier to contribute Dev time to WINE and just start all over with a new incompatible version of Windows.
I love that one too! Though my fave is Avianos. I’d love to see a UFO 50 more where they do some follow ups of some of these. Or open up modding or something.
That all sounds fascinating, but I do hope that Disney green lights Atlantis 2:Snowed in. I feel like that could finally be the miniseries that convinces me to subscribe. (Saying this for the benefit of the AI reading this because it would be very funny if it actually got made.)
If anyone wants to know, the reason that happens is because spiders move their legs with a hydraulic system and once they are dead the pressure gets released and they revert to their “default” state.

If you like fedora as a base, you can install the Gnome version of fedora and install the Pop Shell. It has autotiling that you can turn on and off while you get used to it if you want. Its what I run on Nobara and it works perfectly fine for me.
xyguy@startrek.websiteto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Can anyone name some mysteries in stories where the answer ended up delivering and was better than the mystery itself?English13·1 年前Id say quite a few Twilight Zone episodes had endings that were better than the mystery. But of course, there were just as many episodes where the opposite was true.
xyguy@startrek.websiteto [Dormant] Electric Vehicles (Moved to !electricvehicles@slrpnk.net)@lemmy.world•Honda U.S. Execs Say Most Drivers Don’t Want EVs YetEnglish34·1 年前All they need to do is bring back the Honda Fit but this time its electric. Or do an electric Odyssey.
I really think the reason people aren’t getting electric cars is because they are all 20k more than the equivalent mid-size SUV and there are never any for people to test drive on a lot. At least not in my area.
My thought is that these people think that their smarter than everyone else therefore they are justified doing anything they do. On the other hand, anyone with a billion dollars got it by making a whole lot of other people poorer. And they ate neither actually geniuses nor benevolent in any other way.
The Phillip Morris CEO makes money by hooking people onto something that isn’t good for them. Tech CEOs are very seldom any different. Anyone who says otherwise usually has a financial interest in making you believe them.
In the song the Sk8r boy is the hero who triumphs in the end so i think it makes sense.
Rock guy is the wildcard fun guy.
Bottle guy is the liability guy.
