I don’t think TikTok community is compatible with the idea of fediverse

TikTok exists to give you large floods of endorphins via either an algorithm trained to your interests or by giving you big numbers. And this is not exclusive to TikTok, this is just how modern “social” media works, it’s the sole reason why bluesky succeeded more than mastodon

Modern social media is mostly a hive mind of people affirming each other driven by algorithms. Fediverse on the other hand, always boils down to a old fashioned usenet style network made just so people can talk with each other. You can’t really get addicted to fedi

I wasn’t really alive during the wild west internet (im 19). I got into the net during the transition from forums to modern social media and reddit was my first social. I tried getting into facebook and instagram because everyone else was there but I just didn’t like it much.

I don’t know why but “the algorithm” is really boring for me. I only tried algorithm driven feeds on reddit (after u/spez) and on tumblr but the recommendations were always extremely “fake”. Other sorting methods like “new” or “by most active” just feel more like as if there was someone on the other side of the keyboard

That’s what I’ve been saying all the time when my brother says monopoly sucks when you don’t win. It’s literally designed to make you suffer

this is the peak of human engineering, this is what we have been working for since the dawn of humanity, this is the end, the perfection.

I love big phones though. Smaller ones feel too claustrophobic to me

Also, from a usabity point of view, bigger screens are better for watching videos in landscape, editing text and it’s easier to use the gestures and the keyboard (I don’t even have fat fingers). I think only downside is ring and pinky fingers hurting after a while because of the weight

I mean if you are a pretentious asshole worried about stinky users stealing your precious content…

ChatGPT keeps mixing up software versions which is understandable considering the similarities between versions and the way gen AI works

I asked for help on GTK 4 once and responses were a mix of GTK 4 and 3 code. Some of them even contained function names which didn’t exist in any version of GTK

My 8 year old lovebird died a few days ago.

His name was sherbet but the nicknames include: chicken, rodent, animal, (the) bird, birdhead, mango, weirdo… And because of that, now everything reminds me of her

I held his body in my hand cried for hours. We went to gradma’s yard with my brother to burry him, I broke down crying while digging so my little brother finished it for me.

Our home is just too silent without him, I miss him so much

This seems like a stupid idea at first but it’s actually amazing. They mix high resistance metals into bricks so the bricks can conduct electricity and heat up while doing that. And then they blow air through the holes on the bricks to extract the heat. It leaks about 3% of the heat per day which is absolutely nothing considering it’s cost

I’m gonna drop these papers here. First one is more of a brief intro and the second one is about practicality and logistics of such systems

Time to make a yet another account

Those are generally used for bypassing filters on TikTok and Instagram

But like, come on man, no matter how much you censor it I know the word and I get the message. Because that’s why you wrote it, you want me to read and understand it

there’s a git repository for that

Real Linux users only drink GPL licensed cola

I made a 100GB alt account and uploaded 25GB of files through an encrypted mount. We’ll see what happens when I cancel it tomorrow

Yup I know I am the product. That’s why we are encrypting everything with AES256 before upload using rclone’s crypt remote

I just don’t trust any cloud provider tbh. Performance hit from AES256 is very insignificant and it provides solid privacy regardless of provider. Might as well get the cheap one

Possibility of Google keeping API access up after cancellation is why I asked this question. To learn what happens when to rclone Google drive mount after an expiration

Well, my VPS is used mainly by my friends for Minecraft servers, collaboration, file sharing, streaming and pretty much everything cloud related

Most of them live in Istanbul and my VPS provider is one of the most reliable and affordable providers located in Istanbul.

Unfortunately, Hertzner doesn’t work for me because their prices are astronomical for me compared to Google’s regional pricing for Turkey (40TL/mo = 1.1USD/mo for 2TB)

I just wanna exploit the service as much as possible since I just don’t rely on them. Electricity prices are too high for homelab but maybe I could set up a solar powered server if I save a little (I’m a student, I don’t have much money, but I like the hobby)

I’ll probably try accessing cancelled drive account with rclone and find out if it’s possible

i like nuclear energy and minecraft modpacks

Women are you can you can hold uranium ore in your hand for the shopping list for very long time and now I have to know if you have any questions let me know

Transitioning is the linux equivalent for gender
