  • Okay, but surely upon arriving to said address with a huge swat team and discovering nothing amiss, no panicked people, no gunfire, no anything, their first reaction is to raid the house? The US sure is a strange place.

  • abusing emergency services

    I don't understand - someone called the swat team on her? Why would they go to a private house with a giant swat force based solely on some anonymous tip? That makes no sense in my head.

  • I don't have my own domain for my email, I just switched to Infomaniak's domain. I then use Thunderbird with the unified inbox to view all my emails in one inbox. So I get both my gmail and infomaniak emails in Thunderbird. I didn't bother changing all of my old accounts using the gmail to use infomaniak instead - there's just so many accounts and it didn't seem worth it. Primary goal for me was to stop paying Google for drive space.

    The transition was pretty easy honestly, once I sat down to do it. The largest obstacle is honestly the mental one, of getting oneself to actually commit to doing it.

    Can you set up cloud backup of photos from your phone, etc?

    Yes, the kDrive app can be set to automatically upload pictures you take on your phone to your kDrive. I actually like it even better than on Google, cause on Google my photos never got to Google Drive, but went to Google Photos. So I didn't automatically have them on my PC. With the kDrive app, you just choose a folder in your drive where the photos are saved, and then it saves them there, and it gets synced to your PC if you run the kDrive app there obviously.

  • I switched from Google (email, cloud storage, etc.) to Infomaniak in august last year. It was european, got more cloud storage for less money and though the user experience wasn't 100% polished, it was basically 90% there. Good enough.

    I couldn't be happier with my choice now - this seems like a really good move. This looks like a similar sort of setup as Mozilla the for-profit company has with the non-profit Mozilla Foundation. Good on the founder for doing this!

  • Confused european here - why?

  • The advice is sound I suppose (I'd prefer Rust over Go in the backend though) but the whole thing reads like AI wrote it.

  • The Talos Principle is amazing and the sequel is super good too. Devs recently came out with a remaster of the first game too.

    Outer Wilds is a masterpiece, although it's not completely chill at all times (actually can be scary but only rarely and you can disable that too). But it's a really really really good game.

  • Doesn't lots of package managers have the exact same problems?

  • The whole prompt is kind of hilarious. It's like some sort of strange pep talk.

  • Of course they're allowed - just saying I personally do not like it.

  • Having a blocklist option is of course perfectly fine. Pre-filling and pre-enabling that list is not the software's job, if you ask me.

  • So is air cooling actually feasible but we don't do it cause it would make data centers look like nuclear reactors? Or is it just not feasible?

  • Isn't retirement a fairly modern idea? Didn't people in relatively recent times (say, 100 years ago) just work till they died or lived off the alms of their relatives? We got an economic boom for the boomers which allowed pensions as an invention and they used it heavily, but now the economic situation is completely different so the new generation does not stand to have the same retirement luxury.

    I am by no means a historical or economic expert so I may be completely wrong.

  • I think there would be a whole lot of excitement, possibly a lot of religious turmoil.

    I'd recommend the movie "Contact" which explores this exact scenario :)

  • What do you mean "meet"? The way we would reach contact is by radio signals at first, not by actual physical visits. So at first we would only be communicating with probably a very long light delay as they'd be very far away. Realistically speaking neither would be able to visit the other in any feasible way, unless they have technology that is far, far beyond what we can imagine right now. Interstellar travel is very hard.

  • Personally think it's just really not the software's job to handle this or have an opinion on this - it's rather up to the instance admins to decide.

  • I suppose if you have an instance wide policy against AI moderation, then any mod using AI for moderation is going against the rules. But what anyone "should" do on their own instance is really up to them.

  • They don't need to federate even, they're probably already scraping everything.

  • I got one, just keep spamming continue, it will eventually go through!
