90% of people aren’t worth the time

  • Is there some sort of public blacklist of known youtube channels made with AI?

    Jump

  • I have some DNS blocklists for blocking Google outright that take care of the problem pretty well.

  • Donald Trump accuses Barack Obama of releasing classified information

    Jump

  • Can we talk about how fucking nasty it is to store files in a bathroom? Would you want to touch those knowing Trump probably took a McDonald’s/KFC-style shit just feet away from the papers in your hands?

  • What's your laziest or most ridiculous automation?

    Jump

  • This is really common where I work but I don’t understand why. On macOS I’m more likely to use ls -1. Do you need to know permissions or file sizes often?

  • What's your laziest or most ridiculous automation?

    Jump

  • I used to do this for lighting and fans whenever my VR headset turned on.

  • What's your laziest or most ridiculous automation?

    Jump

  • Not too crazy but I have automations based on whether external doors are open: if it’s hot and it’s cooler outside and someone opens the door then the fan near it gets turned out. Similarly if the heater is on but someone leaves a door open longer than one minute (conservative) the heaters will shut off.

  • DHS Collecting Big Tech Users' Personal Data, Issuing Subpoenas For ICE-Related Criticism

    Jump

  • Why “Nebraska Avenue, NW” instead of “Nebraska Ave NW?” The fucking government can’t even write an address in the correct USPS notation.

  • Surveillance protects people from terrorism, and sacrificing some privacy makes us safer.

    Jump

  • What in the HTML is going on here?

  • What do you call your significant other in your phone?

    Jump

  • I just put people’s names in my phone as their actual first and last name; if I call them something else I put that name in the nickname field.

    Super basic “skill” to do this. 😒

  • Ad-blocking is piracy, and that's okay

    Jump

  • If the content needs ads to pay for it did it really have any value at all to begin with? If I can’t access content ad-free (with an ad blocker) I’ll just give up and find something better.

    Even as a web developer I’ll pay to host my content. Should it become too costly then I’ll need to monetize it as a business or ask for donations but I’d never stoop so low as to start spying on my users and selling their browsing habits; fuck that. And I’ll never start trying to brainwash them into buying some shit that’s probably unnecessary and bad for the environment anyway.

    I’m so tired of being expected to give up my privacy even for paid services. I can’t use my VPN? Then get fucked, I’ll find someone better to business with.

  • YSK that if you hesitate between Ketchup and Mustard, you should choose Mustard. It's healthier.

    Jump

  • Ugh, I love barbecue but the kind most people buy is like 90% sugar.

  • What's a piece of Media that is so underrated you must mention it?

    Jump

  • Mr. Robot is one of my all-time favorites and my most recent favorite was Mr. Corman.

  • Favorite Snack or Treat

    Jump

  • Cucumber (or chips) and hummus

  • What Fediverse instances would you recommend to others?

    Jump

  • Personally I’d really like to see more servers physically located in privacy and free-speech friendly places like Switzerland and Iceland (for example). I’m not sure why you’d want to have your social media hosted anywhere else.

  • Removed

    Is Noticing What Your Ethnic Brethren Are Doing Classified as Racist?

    Jump

  • I don’t want to say it’s as bad or worse but the capitalization of every word in the question is kind of gross too.

  • Advertisements

    Jump

  • I’m divided on this. I happily pay streaming services for ad-free plans but I’ve never been so into YouTube that I’ve wanted to pay for it. I have it blocked outright anyway (part of my “fuck Google” blocklist collection).

  • Website

    Jump

  • Same here! I started sprinkling in JavaScript from copy and paste snippets you’d find all over the web and eventually I moved on to PHP (for a small while) then Ruby on Rails.

  • If you are not in a tech field, what got you into self-hosting?

    Jump

  • I’m a web developer and whenever I see my (awesome) mechanic I always wonder what it’s like on the “other side.”My dad was a mechanic when I was a child and I always regret never picking up those skills.

    A lot of times when they run me through their problem-solving I’m like “damn, that’s just like reproducing a bug to find its root cause.”

  • UK | Oatly banned from using word ‘milk’ to label vegan drinks

    Jump

  • Fuck no

  • UK | Oatly banned from using word ‘milk’ to label vegan drinks

    Jump

  • People who impregnate (rape) and abuse cows for their milk are so insecure about their product that they need to ban competition from using their word. It’s really pathetic to see.
