If you burn your retinas enough like OP, then everything becomes dark mode

This reads like ragebait or a hit piece, but I don’t even know what I’m supposed to rage about?

We all use some sort of automod bot to flag or even ban accounts.
We’ve all banned accounts for way less.

Am I supposed to be offended that this user, of all people, was banned from anywhere?
Or that an LLM summary is linked in the modlog for it? If an admin reviewed it, why should I care?

Am I supposed to get mad about political profiling?
/looks around to literally everywhere in the fediverse and gestures wildly.

My only gripe is it would maybe be more environmentally friendly to just skim that profile instead of using an LLM but whatever.
“Save the planet, ban people with the old ban hammer.”

IDK this whole thing feels like stirring shit for the sake of it. WTF is even the point of this post.

I’m a network sorcerer.
Wizards are more the book-type while I draw my networkink power from my bloodline.

Yes and these comments also show up on mastodon.

I’ve not had good luck finding something that gives me the confidence to go about it

Now’s a good time to make sure you have good backups.
Knowing you can fallback to your backups helps a lot with confidence.

One this that’s really hard to replace is DDoS protection.

I leave my phone further away.
Close enough that I’ll hear it if there’s an actual emergency, but far enough that I won’t reach for it just because I’m bored.

That’s enough to take care of most of my mindless night scrolling.

If I just can’t fall asleep, sometimes I’ll go drift off in the hammock outside or something that’ll cool my body a bit.
Tbh, sometimes I just rub one out ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Also works as a decongestant.
I’m not a doctor, don’t use this as medical advice.

Yay, top-fwz1.mail.ru was already in my default pihole blocklist

If it starts fine, but performance drops off a cliff after a while, it might be a heat issue.
I ended up putting such a flaky drive in a bag and wrapping a flexible icepack around it.
Not a great solution, but kinda good enough to get some data off of it.

I use this one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.orrs.deliveries

It can usually get the status of most courriers unless they’re actively hostile against API/scraping.
Worst case you can still track status manually, or open the webpage.
It doesn’t track payment, but I don’t usually have a tracking number before paying.
I think you could technically add your own custom status entry.
I keep them as active until shipped and verified after which I mark them as completed.

Works well enough for my needs.

You can use an adapter just fine.
Or use a 5.5" drive caddy, that’s just a little drawer that slides in and out.
Real question is it you have enough SATA connectors available.

Make sure you mention your lemmy.world username especially if it’s a different one

Trash trash bags, hmm.

IDK, maybe, I might be one of those guys and didn’t really notice before.
I don’t believe I do this differently around women vs men.
I’m often too busy in my own head to pay much attention. So, if your body language isn’t sketchy like drunk or overly aggressive, odds are I’ve zoned out and you didn’t register much.

Anyway, I’m a generally silent walker.
If I’m not paying attention, I might end up sneaking up on someone without meaning to, which can then startle them or spook them. Like, I spook my cat often enough and they’re the actual predators.

But yea, late at night, I think I might subconsciously make myself known ahead of time just as a simple courtesy.
I’d rather not find out whether anyone’s more of a fight/flight person when they finally notice me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Me? I’m the throat clearing guy. Hi. Ahem.

PS: I have 20+ years experience of throat clearing. Yes I’ve seen doctors, they didn’t find anything other than yea we can see inflammation in your vocal chords, no there’s nothing we can do, just stop doing it. That or prescribe random shit that actually fucks up other basic bodily functions and create actual problems.

Anyway, I’m sorry if it’s weird.

chown -R nobody:nobody /usr/lib

Now I wonder how many of you put your fingers under your nose while breathing to double check.

Fun fact, your body uses only one nostril at a time and closes the other.
It switches throughout the day and keeps nostrils moists.

yes everything you read on the Internet is true.

Warrantied drives still fail, they just happen to ship you a replacement.

Commercial drive trashing solutions are basically a smaller, fancier version of the mechanism in a log splitter.
You could probably rig a sketchy drive wedge/bending thing with a pump jack rather easily.
Wear PPE.

The odds of someone taking a failed drive and transplanting the platters to a working drive is pretty low to begin with.

Me? I don’t have tons of drives to destroy, so I just unscrew the thing, get the platters out and smash those.
