Actually, you are hurting the employer by hurting the server. Just not nearly as much.

I usually keep stuff to seed until 3.0 ratio or longer if I’m keeping the files. If it’s just taking really long and I need the drive space at 1.0 or even earlier. That should be ok right?

I honestly never noticed it :D is there like a setting to turn off seeing those lock symbol people? I must have that on :D

It’s important to note that the default state of people is being dumb. It takes effort, exposure and more qualities/circumstances during a person’s early years to not be dumb.

Many people just didn’t grow up in an environment that allows that, it’s actually a quite specific one that doesn’t happen automatically.

And once the early life phase is over, mental plasticity is a lot lower, so very very few people go from “dumb” to “not dumb”.

If you want to be less dumb, I can really recommend https://lesswrong.com/rationality

That was it :)

There definitely is/was an adblocker that clicks on ads but doesn’t show them. Don’t make me look it up, I don’t care enough ;)

Ah yes of course, a few people living off donations are supposed to outperform a multi billion dollar corporation in amount of features and polish within features.

The protocol doesn’t matter. Look at lemmy vs kbin. Kbin has “extended” features like microblogs & different UI. There’s plenty of people that like those features and thus are using kbin over Lemmy.

Just imagine kbin were much more attractive than Lemmy. More people would start signing up there. More people start “microblogging”. Maybe there’ll be other features introduced, and Lemmy can’t keep up with the nice things being added.

One day kbin decides not to federate with Lemmy at all anymore. Most people are on kbin at this point, Lemmy doesn’t have the same quality/amount of features. Now the average user has a choice: do they care about kbin being asses and leave kbin? No, of course not, not if the features really are nicer.

Now replace kbin with Facebook. Or Google, that’s exactly what they did with XMPP.

The only thing that is able to save from the triple E attack is the users actually caring enough about open platforms and deciding to not use the non-open ones. Or actually having more resources than Facebook, good luck with that.

I like !dota2@lemmy.world. It has a lot of posts with really high quality and there’s lots of discussions happening in the comments.

I wish 😭 I’m so alone

Because setup is easier, Docker basically sets up a completely new environment for the app to live in mostly isolated from your main system, so all the stuff you installed on your system has no effect on it.

Also depends on if the backup is properly encrypted. If it is, security of whatever storage you use is pretty irrelevant.

Everyone knows the real plural is ATM machines.
