I think the problem is that a lot of people are just running flatpaks, dockers, and third party repos which might not be getting timely updates.

I try to stick to debian packages for everything as much as possible for this reason.

I’ve been using NC since single digit version numbers

The performance increase on v30 is VERY noticeable, especially loading photos.

Omg… I have the EXACT same goal. Qnap and make a better offsite backup process… Been procrastinating for years now

I’m thinking a diy NAS running openmediavault.

Currently doing encrypted backups to google storage archive tier. Very cheap to store, expensive to retrieve.

Thinking maybe i can set up a small box at a family members house for nightly backups

Geez, that still exists too??? Is sharebear still around? Limewire? Kazaa???

awesome! i’ll check this out!

sorry for the n00b question, but why do i need to self host a persistent daemon and then connect to it using a webUI? can’t i just use a soulseek client on my local machine? i’m not really familiar with the architecture of soulseek.

Cool!

Is there any good content on soulseek? The last time i downloaded music from that era, it was all 96kbps realplayer audio files totally mislabelled with the wrong artist

I feel like what you described should be a big fat warning on the nextcloud page

OP is a lot more gracious than most internet users by accepting some responsibility. But i wouldnt blame them. I might have done the same, and i’ve been self hosting nextcloud for 8 years now.

I had Youtube premium when it included google play music. GPM was so good…

I unsubscribed everything when they changed to youtube music. Terrible music platform

Wait what? Republicans said they fuck couches? I’m out of the loop here.

And rob your coworkers of the joy of seeing the cat point his butthole directly at the camera???

Cats showing up in the middle of meetings is the best part of meetings

I hope you’re upgrading from debian buster to bullseye!

I keep hearing how addictive nicotine is (7x more than heroin??), but in my experience, i never got addicted. Is there something wrong with my brain?

I never smoked two packs a day, but i spent at least 3 years smoking socially (2 or 3 smokes at work every day and then 2 or 3 smokes at the bar on the weekend). So around a pack a week.

But during that time, i could always just take a week or two off if i needed to. I always wanted a smoke (especially with a beer or coffee) but i could resist the urge, no problem.

At the end of the 3 years, i just quit cold turkey. I would keep smoking once in a while with a beer, but i never went back to regular smoking…

Do you only get addicted if you’re smoking a pack a day or more?

If buying isnt owning then piracy isnt stealing

Prompts are just the reverse of image recognition AI tagging stuff.

Alt text is exactly the kind of tedious work that AI would be good at doing, but everyone in the fediverse seems to have a huge hate boner for ANYTHING AI…

Fediverse: write a fucking essay every time you post an image… But make sure you waste time doing it manually, instead of using AI tools!!!

None of my coworkers drive to the office and we actually like seeing each other… Hybrid remote work is great for us

I think 90% of the problem is people being forced to drive everywhere

Weather underground is owned by IBM now

Anyone know of a community driven, non-profit weathet platform we can share weather station data with?

Wow, did not know this…

I think i will accelerate my plans for a new NAS lol

QNAP is taiwanese and still providing software patches for my 8 year old NAS. I think they are reasonably trustworthy

But i agree with you, i’m going to build my own NAS from scratch this year…

Dude, i was also going to ask if you’re a writer on the show…

i read your post and heard hank’s voice perfectly in my head. You have talent, son.

Sure. I 100% agree with you… I should not and DO NOT dictate what apps other people use…

But if 50% of the userbase uninstalls signal, you dont think this is going to be detrimental to their organization?
