Those tiny, single-person tubes in Japan where one just pays rent for a tube to sleep in and a storage unit would do me fine.

I’d sleep in a hollow log if it meant not sleeping there with another person.

My parents blew up any inheritance I would’ve ended up with due to bad decisions and shit luck.

Now my mom depends on me during her final years as we cruise the stars in a two-bedroom apartment.

A lot of my friends live together and share rent. Some with their parents, and a minority got hitched and live with a spouse. It seems like a lot of people depend on small family groups these days.

Headscale worked for me, but I get the non-tech saavy friends part doesn’t quite jive with it as a solution.

Still, anyone wanna ditch Tailscale and only use it for hosting sites across proxies? Headscale is great.

All that bridge stuff has me interested. I’d just like to put all of my chats in one place. Matrix seems like the solution for that. Just bridge everything lol.

“Well, shit.”

The rich are only safe if they keep every grain of gunpowder and lump of c4 in there with them.

I’m not all for his rhetoric that it will be an improvement, but I’m not doubting it won’t happen.

Reinforcing my headcanon that everyone is.

Nice try, Kim!

I’ve been deployed to the woods by a country I dislike, to a country I don’t understand under the command of a country I also dislike

…guess I’ll just leave, then.

Go to any tech community and most of the questions are “how do I get this to work?”

It’s why they made an account. Go to any Steam game community page, lmao. Linux isn’t exclusive on that one. They wouldn’t be posting if they didn’t have a question? It’s why they showed up.

Do people go to Microsoft forums to hang out with their buddies?

I know how good Linux is, it’s why I use it. I won’t be trolled out of using it because it’s too hard for you. I use it every day. I’m using it rn.

The loudest voices shouting about how bad W11 is are always Linux users, especially on Lemmy

If we had nothing to complain about, we’d still be using Windows. It’s why we aren’t.

I use Jellyfin and Finamp and they work fine. All the old navidrome and airsonic solutions seem to be dead, and I never liked Funkwhale. Who wants all of their music in encrypted block storage?

I also like the quality bump. When I’m not streaming, my music is in FLAC on a DAP with some high quality cans. I can’t get that with Spotify on a phone, and I camp and hike a lot in areas without cell service, so having it with me is a plus.

Music sits in between storing movies and books. I have less than 2TB in total but the amount of albums is more than the amount of films that I have, and that’s 7TB+. Music, even FLAC, isn’t terrible on space, unless you’re a 24-bit fiend.

governments: We got you, King!

It’s just our rent payment.

Preservation is an invasive and destructive process. Recreating the experience of watching ‘The Daily Show’ in the 90s or early '00s is already impossible. Language and culture mildew and rot just like leather and wood.

EDIT: People don’t seem to understand what I’m talking about. Even the people who are responding in good faith seem confused. That’s on me. So I thought I’d try to clarify with an example.

Take the Mona Lisa. Perhaps one of the most preserved objects in history. It’s so well preserved that it’s impossible to see. Sure, you can look at it, but you won’t see it. Taking a picture of the painting is encouraged, but you can’t get a look at it in your camera roll either.

If you saw the actual painting hanging on a friend’s wall, your first thought would probably not be “what a masterpiece”, but “why didn’t they remove the default print that came with the frame”? If you go to Paris, you can wait in line to have the “Mona Lisa experience” but the painting you saw wasn’t hanging on the wall, what you’ll see is the Mona Lisa you brought with you.

(yes, I stole this example from ‘were in hell’ youtube channel)

Figured I’d make a copy. Who knows, the OP might change it in the future. Gotta preserve the past and all.

Yep, my shelf of DVDs of movies I loved growing up became 4TB of media on a Jellyfin server, cloned to a cold drive I leave in my closet.

Well there’s borrowing, but I feel that’s what we’re all already doing.

To your credit, Nintendo’s golden age is well behind them. Most of the best games they’re likely to ever make are already runnable on PC, especially since they’ve been kinda phoning it in for the last decade or so.
