  • No doubt. I can do that and probably should have, but I read an article about this list and any forums discussing the access to it only ever referred to one site with images as the only source. The articles occasionally indicated that the list was made public on social media but they never indicated when and where. So, more than anything, I just wanted to get the list into a copypasta format that others could use. I’m under a heavy work load at the moment, but once available I can throw a spreadsheet together with some sorting options.




  • My favorite was finding out that bit locker was enabled on a forced update. The key was saved to the Microsoft account that was used to set up the lappy. Except, I didn’t use a Microsoft account because I’m not some tech marionette lemming who needs Gates hand shoved up my ass to tell me how to use my fucking computer. So I used a local account and disabled bitlocker via bios.

    Nothing was lost, but it was still a pain in the dick hole.

    Lol, so true. I always try to share the reach with others when I can. But after being married for about 15 years at the time, I found a bag of candy on top of the books on the bottom shelf. So I went around the house checking all the low areas and there was a veritable TROVE of sweets - everywhere. They were even in the garage that only I use. Partner was horrified that I found them and then wouldn’t say how long this had gone on for. I can only assume the entire time because I did find a few things like chocolate oranges that they only sell around the holidays. Every once in a while nowadays I see a wrapper, but the stash has been replaced and no one is talking. Mischievous.








  • You still haven’t answered my question

    And I’m not going to. It has nothing to do with the point that I was making. It has nothing to do with the quip that I started with. I came neither here nor to you to get advice. I made a sarcastic comment that you literally just confirmed. Thank you.

    And the consolidation and gatekeeping of resources to the few seems just a tad antithetical to the entire foundation of decentralization.

    From join-lemmy.org:

    self hostable, easy to deploy

    “people” are telling me that this isn’t easy, but Lemmy seems to think it is. Good luck arguing your way out of that paper bag.


  • Look, I hear what you’re saying. And no offense intended, but people like you crow about things like fediverse not being supported… All the while, these applications are not supported by their own developers. And unfortunately, not unlike the majority of my experiences with Linux issues, every time I reach out for help I’m told the same old hat story, “this isn’t meant for beginners”.

    And the “pains that come with learning about self-hosting” are so unnecessary and in my opinion quite apparently avoidable.

    "Well, did you change the port number to this number that isn’t referenced anywhere in the documentation? It’s pretty obvious to anyone that’s been doing this for 20 years - who would be able to recognize that it’s a step everyone would need to do to deploy - so there’s literally no conceivable reason why that would be included…

    ###IN THE TUTORIAL

    …Maybe you shouldn’t be doing this."


  • Well, as someone who has been trying to launch a functioning Lemmy instance for nearly a year now, I can tell you, knowing not the slightest thing about funkwhale, that I would eat my hat if the documentation isn’t an all but absent shit show.

    My favorite part was learning that my domain was creating a completely new cert from lets encrypt with each deployment and no way of recovering them at all. So after 5 attempts, you have to wait 60 days (or whatever) for them to expire. That was awesome. I messaged the devs about that one and they literally said “we didn’t think of that”… 😑

    And so much shit goes tits up if you don’t deploy it perfectly the very first time. Don’t get me wrong, I love the fediverse, but JTFC I hate the fucking fediverse.

    It’s military standards and boot camp. It has literally nothing to do with perception. Look at drill for a fraction of a second while standing at attention and he will berate you endlessly for trying to suck him off with your eyes. Your bootlace is dragging because you’re dumb. You’re tired because you’re weak. And you are the fattest motherfucker in this universe because you stood in front of the cake in the chow line for too long. It’s not about perception. It’s just basic. Even in active duty today, he would still be considered overweight, and even if he passed the PT test it wouldn’t protect him from getting chaptered out for fitness.

    6’ 5", 200#, according to the Army, I was overweight by 15 lbs. I ran A group most mornings in PT (fastest, farthest runners), ran low 6 min miles, maxed situps and still had to wait 40 seconds for the test to end. Pushups were always low but fuck off, soy alto. I started lifting, gained 50 lbs, and my neck grew to 19"+ and all of the sudden I was “fit”, even though I couldn’t run A group anymore, couldn’t break 7 min miles, and barely finished the situps in time. No improvement on pushups so don’t stop fucking off. It’s just military standards. It has literally nothing to do with perception. And people were fat before the 80s, JTFC did I just have to say that? Sure, there are more today, but it’s not like Pvt Pyle was broadly considered obese by civilians at the time. The people ITT… 🙄

    How bout this? Sync doesn’t support subscript so I’m not sure how this looks.


    Opened in browser, superscript looks better, still jacked in sync tho.
