Depends how that happens. I’ld see them sell off lots of high tech gear to highest bidding crazy people for a quick cash grab. Same amount of weapons, less controlled.

Trump is the first very televised idiot for this list… Tho the people are even less sane for REelecting him

It’s still a shitty situation. Really what’s a shitty situation with an extra 20 kg of coffee in your basement, but still a shitty situation? The prepper fortress is a very unrealistic thing to try to strive for anyhow for anyone living in a city, majority of people. It’s the widespread doomsday mentality and the downward spiral of the conspiracy nutheads that got the USA where it is today anyhow… Good luck hanging on in your basement for 10 years. That’s easily how long it can take if it goes full fascist. Even then, hard to compare, the implosion of a nuclear armed superpower has only happened once before in history (Soviet Union), and that shit ain’t over yet either, Ukraine is a direct continuation of the process. So they’re like 35-ish years in, where USA seems to be heading now. Abandoning NATO is the equivalent of the implosion of the Warsaw Pact.

You were a nerd interested in computers. They still exist in younger generations. Just became way less common because the necessity disappeared for most people. Most prefer computers (or any device or tech really) that “just works”. Some are interested in how things work. 90% of Lemmy is the latter, from all generations but many in their 30s and 40s because that was peak computer learning age: rather cheap hardware, software still needed to be hacked together somewhat, clear rewards when doing so (for example messing with game settings IRQ etc to get it running).

I’ve met people born late 90s early 00s doing PhD in computer science who barely seem to know basic general computer stuff… All they know is that one extremely niche thingy they’re into. They never needed to learn general basics that much, stuff just worked out of the box.

But no sound, that was one of the advantages of hdmi over vga

A lot of older audio/radio dramas are on YouTube or some dedicated very old looking websites. It’s very country/language dependant content.

If you’re looking for stuff in your local language, a great source for high quality content is the local library. There’s also quite some to be found on soulseek.

They wasted hundreds of thousands in the meat grinder… The final outcome would have to be absolutely massive in favour of Russia for it to still be beneficial. Unlikely.

I’m no expert, but this podcast series seems to suggest Von Braun was mainly very focused on shooting rockets to the moon and fiddling the right guys to get crazy amounts of funding for that goal. I’m not saying he wasn’t a nazi, he was, but exterminating jews etc was probably not his mean focus in life… In the Von Braun case it was propaganda towards his own leaders, to get lots of money. The reason he’s well remembered is not propaganda but because what he tried actually worked out very well and was the basis for pretty much every rocket since. If he’ld happen to live in Soviet Russia, he would probably have become a member of the communist party, whatever would get him more money/free labor for shooting new trials towards space.

Usually not uglier than the balcony itself.

Usually involves scarcely clothed women on cover. The music itself is usually some quite loungy slow towards jazz music thing or very light electro. King of erotic lounge for me is Fausto Papetti, bonus points for lots of Saxophone… I got like 8 LPs from him out of which 6 have topless women on the cover

You should teach your teachers.

The distraction is currently no doubt from the takeing over of certain essential government agencies, hollowing them out, getting rid of anyone critical of the new regime.

Because they learned nothing

Honestly why not just use an old laptop you have laying around to test 1 or 2 of your many project/ideas and see how it goes, before going 4000 $ deep.

Not OP. I’m willing to learn Docker, but I just can’t get it going. My machine is permanently connected through nordvpn, I use meshnet to access it from other devices if I’m not on local wifi. The docker + VPN doesn’t work. Docker fails to download anything from docker hub, every request times out. Any instructions to bypass it looked very difficult, manually editing subnets or something, I feel uncomfortable with. Disabling services, then disabling VPN, then installing docker stuff and then restarting services and VPN also seems silly. I got lots going throught dietpi (many nicely embedded services), though it’s holding me back for example from running jellyseerr

Why would this not be legal in EU if the conditions of using the copilot are clearly stated in the agreement? GDPR etc is mostly just that: requirement for clear language + informed consent.

No, i’ld like to be able to do it on the go, while on the train for example

Edit: if plugging in is the option, i can just use remote desktop, sftp, etc, no problem at all. Specifically looking for best way to send from phone to server while server not physically accessible.

I see. It looks a bit more ‘sketchy’ than the original syncthing did tho. Is it trustworthy?

I indeed do not want to store it all on the phone. It’s more like a temporary folder on the phone, just to upload it to the jellyfin

Wow this is a really good app! Thanks

Depends on numbers of simultaneous streaming capability you need i think. I recently bought a 50 € used esprimo “office computer” and it runs very well. I put a 50 € 1TB nvme SSD+ ~200 € 4TB external ssd and a 30 € wifi pci card and good to go, ± 330 € total… Used an old 1TB HDD i still had for back-up. It wouldn’t suffice for dozens of simultaneous streams with transcoding, but it runs my <5 users jellyfin+deluge+nextcloud very well.
