I actually spoke with some who said talking about problems specific to men, is somehow anti feminist, because it puts men into a victim role.

Wow. This is another level of doomscrolling. Very educational though

Please DM me, I need to know

Old Laptop actually sounds interesting to me, very nice form factor for my “inside the bookshelf” approach, but probably a lot of tinkering.

How do thin clients compare to a pi 4? I’ve heard most of them are worse in computing power and efficiency in comparison to the Pi.

Thanks for your detailed response. I thought about an old office PC, but I guess they’re not even close to <10W idle.

Another quick newbie question: What do you need PCI Slots for? Many SATA ports for Drives makes sense to me, but why PCI

Thank you for your super detailed response. That’s a lot of information 😅 Talking about codecs is only applicable to torrenting, right? (I’ve never seen a streaming site talk about the codecs they use).

I don’t really mind paying a bit (and hopefully supporting the creation of new media), but it’s unbelievable that Disney+ butchers a lot of the most memorable Pixar scenes, with terrible compression. (When a lot of snow, confetti or other particles are on screen).

PS: I live in the EU, so I’m not signing away my right to live by subscribing to a streaming service. WTF is going on on the other side of the atlantic. I can’t even believe what a capitalist nightmare some call the United States of America.

Thanks 👍

Do you have a favorite torrenting site?

Actually Hunter Gatherer Tribes spent just around 4 hours a day hunting and gathering. Including food preparation and consumption they spent 40 hours a week wich is less than modern humans (if you count work + cooking)

Of course hunger, famines, illness, suffering and death were frequent occurrences (so I wouldn’t want to switch places), but for most of human history we had enough time and recourse for random shit like socializing, drawing, singing, dancing, sacrifices, worshipping gods and so on.

I really hate cars, I do. But I think in rural Finnland they actually might be the only viable means of transportation

It’s always good to read different opinions about topics like that.

I’ve come across people that deny climate change (and ignored them), but this is another level of fucked up :0

That’s fair I guess. Sad that this isn’t possible in real life

I’ve never blocked someone except bots, so I’m wondering what your reasons are to block people. In my experience trolls/people who argument in bad faith lost interest quickly when I didn’t respond.

Don’t know how credible this article is, but I will post this just in case: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/27/us/politics/trump-votes-christians.html

Honestly it’s fucked up how our school system treats children. We need to talk about racism but also about how children are not to be seen as some sort of human clay that we need to form into whatever we see fit.

Can someone explain why coffee does that? I’ve not been able to find an explanation while being on the toilet at work.
