Casual Conversation@piefed.social•Trying to go "open source" is so infuriating. LineageOS results in no cellular data connection (Can't figure out APN Stuff), and trying to restore Motorola's Factory ROM requires windows...
4·5 months agoThere is a learning curve, and different people have different approaches. Yours is to dive in, which means you will learn a lot quickly. I always go too slow and do a lot of smaller experiments along the way. I make fewer major mistakes, but am slow to adopt new software.
You will make it through this frustration and be actually helping others figure things out before you know it.
Don’t worry about the copying and pasting. Strangers on the internet care more about your success and well being than corporations anyway. I’ve been involved with the open source community for decades in one way or another and I have never - not once - encountered malicious code in a support forum.
It’s also worth noting that science can’t prove humans are conscious.
There’s a reason it’s called “the hard problem.”

Even Caitlyn Jenner?
TLDR That’s what happens when circles get squished together.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•CopyParty is kind of a great file serverEnglish
1·6 months agoI never heard of this before, but it looks similarly easy to deploy. It requires Javascript instead of Python, which is the same to me although I’m sure others will have a strong preference for one or the other. Pretty nice interface though.

In this economy, that’s the one present everyone can afford.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Guidance for Noob? (Synching vs Nextcloud, Immich, Tailscale)English
1·6 months agoI also had a lot of difficulty setting up NextCloud. Based on the various reviews and comments, it seems like I may have actually dodged a bullet.
In general, as I’ve tried different self-hosting solutions, I’ve found that using a dedicated solution for each purpose has given me better results. I use Radicale for contacts and Calendar, Immich for photos, Jellyfin for media (Navidrome for music is great, but I ended up keeping my music library in Jellyfin because I liked the client apps better).
I’m using OwnCloud for filesync, although I’m also testing CopyParty, which is pretty phenomenal and stupid simple.
Tailscale is GOAT. Some people have speculated that it could be subject to enshitification some day. It’s managed by a for-profit company, but everything they do is open source. There are already well-tested forks like HeadScale if you ever have the need to self-host it in the future.
NextCloud seems great if you can get it working and provides a lot of services in one. Some people have said that causes bloat and slowdown, so there are two sides to the coin.
Syncthing is likely not a good option for a file server. It’s great if you want to have a shared file or folder on multiple devices, especially if you just want to transfer files quickly and seamlessly. It’s fantastic at what it does, but it’s not a file server. There are a lot of opportunities for error when using Syncthing.
Debt is a normal part of war, and Ukraine’s war debt is about a quarter of their peacetime GDP. Most of that has already been covered by the EU aid package last year.
Characterizing that as debt slavery is a pretty huge stretch.
Absolutely it is. We choose whether we live in a world where we defend freedom or where we appease bullies.
I guess for some people it’s an easier choice than for others.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I was diagnosed with early onset dementia and alzhimers. Is there safe guards I can put it up so I don't screw or kill anyone? Like who do I contact about being denied to own a gun?
13·6 months agoI’m very sorry to hear that. What is your family support situation look like? That’s one of the most important factors.
Literally hundreds of studies showing that if people can buy a house before they’re 40, they will have more children.
You can’t legislate your way into a higher birth rate. Even authoritarian countries have tried and failed. But you can legislate systemic changes that help people with housing, childcare, and groceries.

News@lemmy.world•Ukraine Says It Won’t Give Up Land to Russia
14·6 months agoThat’s exactly how they ended up in a situation. Putin took Crimea with basically no resistance. He just didn’t count on Zelensky. Most other leaders would have given in to the pressure and let Putin overrun Ukraine (for a nice golden parachute).

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•No Black Friday deal for loyal/previous customersEnglish
31·6 months agoIt’s unfortunate that that was not on any of the pages that I saw. I actually did look and I actually did read the terms and conditions to see if maybe that was the case.
I did let them know in my response that they should probably include that for legal reasons at the very least.

















Weirdly this does not look like AI. Which only makes me wonder HOW you made this.
Brilliant.
