That final boss in Anachronox straight up sucks. I don’t remember if I cheated or gave up and watched the ending on YouTube

same to you!

1. Yes and it all does not matter in the slightest for discussing if a language is a right choice for something like Piefed. Not that there’s much to engage with in the original post - I almost regret leaving a comment on a post like this, but I feel this may be a learning for some.
2. There is zero significance in it being supported in “that” way. There used to be a Go-specific runtime (before there were OS runtimes), but they have dropped it because it made no sense once OS runtimes appeared. If you use TS you likely already have a build step somewhere before deployment unless your function is dead simple (which admittedly it should be, but rarely is). Might as well compile a binary, it’s not that complicated. And yes, using a compiled language like go (or C, yes) may absolutely be the correct choice depending on what you need - if it’s in a hot path which serves a lot of traffic then it may lead to much better warm up times and better throughput, as there isn’t a whole runtime to boot and script to interpret like there would be with Node and/or Python (let’s not talk about Java). I’m simplifying a bit, but hope that helps.

I’m just making a case of how not obsolete python is.

There’s no need to do that, it’s self-evident and the original post does not deserve a second of anyone’s time.

Guess what is and what isn’t used in serverless functions, Lambda doesn’t even support Go ffs. It’s java, ruby, node and python. And from those most use node or python.

I assume that this isn’t bait, so I’ll answer.

1. It doesn’t matter what Lambda supports
2. There isn’t a dedicated runtime for Go because it doesn’t need a runtime. It will work on OS-only runtime like any other language that gets compiled down to a binary: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/runtimes-provided.html

I’m sure more people would delete Brave if they started to apply the same standards they do for Firefox

Oh, you should just disable the rewards the cryptowallet the ads on the homepage and ignore all the nonsense they did in the past, then it’s greaaaaat

With default settings it will wipe your history and cookies on exit

(Which I happen to forget about every single time I install it on a new machine, I hate this default with a passion)

Then there’s disabled WebGL, which you also have to reenable on a bunch of sites. Not too hard, but probably annoying for some

I’ve answered to a sibling comment, but I’ll duplicate here. Hydra is not read-only and works really well on iOS.

Hydra works really well on iOS. It’s not read only, full usage.

And it behaves and looks really similar to the Lemmy client I use (Voyager). Unsure if they share some of the codebase or if they both just try to imitate Apollo.

I’ve listened to him quite a lot in ~2010, then learned about his YouTube channel when it started popping off, but only recently made the connection that it’s the same person.

I went to look at his Wiki page now, and apparently he also released music as Acidwolf, Human Action Network, and FlexE. TIL as well!

He also has a huge backlog of music as The Flashbulb

I’ll take things that didn’t happen for 500

there may be better alternatives, but migrating the WHOLE WORLD to a new system just because it’s slightly better is not gonna happen. hence - unsurprising.

the fact that imperial unit system still exists IS surprising though

It was bound to happen, since they started testing it more than a year ago. While I really hate this decision, I hate the linked blog more. It’s populist SEO slop that exists to advertise “that privacy guy”'s consultancy services. Measuring environment impact of the downloads, that’s your chosen angle here? Bleh.

I just realized this almost reads like a Terramaster ad, that’s not my goal; you can search for similar options from other fabricants.

I don’t mind that, I’m actively looking for recommendations. I also got pointed to https://www.minisforum.com/products/n5-air, but that one is 500 with no RAM at all, which is quite hefty.

So far I’m leaning towards trying to assemble something generic from used components, though I’m not quite sure what to pick best, motherboard being the hardest one.

As for TrueNAS - I might check it out if I do get off the shelf NAS, but I don’t imagine I’ll be using the Web UI much, to be honest. And I know about Jellyfin, I’m sticking to Plex just because I already have a lifetime Plex Pass and I like the app on my TV. If they keep shoving “community” features down my throat though - I’ll do the switch.

ECC is not a hard requirement for me, but if I can get it - I’ll try to, as to me it makes sense for something that runs 24/7 and handles my personal data.

I have a very strong aversion to separating storage from my server. I just don’t see why I need to route power and network to 2 small boxes (none of which would do what I need it to do on its own + considering very crappy room layouts in rented apartments) and then fiddle with network access, when 1 slightly bigger box would do what I need it to do. Some 7-8 years ago I’ve bought dirt cheap second-hand Huananzhi x79 with Xeon E5 and DDR3-ECC with some low profile NVIDIA GPU and it all still works now - and something like that would mostly be OK for me even now (except I left it in another country).

That said, it’s possible a reasonably powerful NAS will be enough for me on its own?

storage box and a services box

That’s exactly what I want to avoid though. I see no reason to power and network 2 different small boxes when just one slightly bigger one will do. And as mentioned - 500 is without HDDs, I plan to use the ones I have for now and extend it later.

so - yes, there is a bypass for an indefinitely enabled apk installation with the annoyance of 24 hour wait when you first get the phone.

not great though, I agree.

If there’s anything to learn here it’s that you absolutely can follow in Ross’s footsteps and organize a movement that will fight for what you deem important. He said multiple times “I’m doing this only because nobody else does, not because I’m a good fit for this”.

“let’s not do this because it’s not as important as X” is a bad argument, because the alternative is not that Ross suddenly picks some other topic and starts to drive it, the alternative is that nothing happens at all.
