Oh man, I did that at a midsize company as a jr. That’s a right of passage. Informing millions of people that you’re shit at testing. That was a fun conversation with my boss

It’s their basic “backup” plan. B2 is more enterprise and you pay standard s3 rates for it, if you have a single computer you want to backup then you want their personal backup plan. Flat rate for unlimited data

Backblaze was solid. If it’s only one computer you get an unlimited account and you’re set

Was just calling out something to think about at least

I mean, there’s a 99% chance this is running in a container, and so worst case you kill that specific container, which is immediately spun up again

I’d only be worried if they were willing to send it to collections, that can hit your credit. Even a small thing can fuck up your credit

Cara Nicole. She does a good job at explaining finance and budgeting to the layman, I liked her because I found that what she said more or less aligned with what I’ve found to be true, so I think she’s sending out smart ways of managing money to people. Plus she does fun videos about things like giving financial audits to Michael Scott and breaking down people’s wish lists. Idk I always enjoy her videos.

I’m personally looking into setting up a friendica instance for my family

Name and shame that mod

Oh I know, it’s just that they said they’re removing moderation for “free speech” and then remove one of the ways you can express themselves. Just hypocritical.

Just making it clear that it wasn’t about freedom of expression or speech. True freedom of speech would mean keeping these even if it made other people uncomfortable.

What do you mean, this was obviously a useful and productive comment for the thread. How dare you.

He knows the only people who still use that platform are celebrating less facts and more AI slop. It’s time to seriously start getting our parents off of facebook

Yes, yes you really should

Phew, and here I thought they let AI out of pandora’s box too early. Good thing we’re ready for it as a society!

If I’m reading your link right, they are using user agents. Granted there’s a lot. Maybe you could whitelist user agents you approve of? Or one of the commenters had a list that you could block. Nginx would be able to handle that.

we would get food poisoning A LOT more without them too. Them wanting to deregulate the food industry is terrifying to us who know the horrors of hugging a toilet for 4+ days

Exactly how I feel. I did what I could. I voted, I encouraged others to vote, I informed myself and others of the issues. I voted to help those in need and to bolster protections for those in need - even at my own expense. Then over half the country voted against their own interests. Ironically, financially the policies I expect to be put in place will probably help me, but I worry for our country. But what else am I supposed to do now? People who voted for this or didn’t vote (and in my mind that’s just a lazier way of voting for what happened), well, I wish them luck if they needed those programs. I feel for everyone who voted for them and are looking at having them taken away.

I think you’re correlating people who have stopped engaging with people who don’t care.

I have panic attacks when I think about the state of our world. I block out most posts that trigger me. If I didn’t, I’d be a nervous wreck sitting in misery if I didn’t. That doesn’t mean I don’t know what’s happening, I’m very aware and I keep up, but I’m also not going to have a constant feed of anxiety forced in my face.

We used to be informed if we read a daily newspaper. Don’t confuse “refusing to have constant anxiety” with privilege.

Always remember there is someone much cheaper than you who will do a much worse job, but be more arrogant about it
