Honestly get a third party HE controller and call it a day…

I have signed the petition but wasn’t ever asked for an ID.

So in countries like mine (FR) how are they gonna check my signature?

What you can probably do is create an encrypted archive and selecting the checkbox that hides filenames. It’s what I usually do in that type of case.

It should prevent gmail from knowing what is in the archive.

Apache?

I think it’s still the leader and I certainly prefer it to other alternatives.

And I would randomly swerve the car to keep it interesting.

Your opinion on censorship / moderation is so full of contradictions and misconceptions it’s quite fascinating.

Honestly Lemmy is way too small to be monitored and acted upon.

So even though the question is interesting I think deleting Lemmy because of the current administration is an over reaction.

On the contrary you probably have the opportunity to freely dissent here when others on mainstream socials networks can’t.

But I’m European so it’s easy for me to say that this is probably safe here. You have to evaluate the risk yourself but I think no administration gives a single sh** about Lemmy.

I think stand up maths did a video getting stung by bullet ants and showed it’s not as insanely painful as coyote seemed to imply.

So I indeed think he is over-dramatic most of the time…

I keep up with US news for years by now and I’m some French dude who shouldn’t care about it. The US is a preview of the next issues my country will encounter so I think it matters to follow some American news.

I think it doesn’t matter really why American elected Trump twice. It just raises the question on what can we do to change that. And there is nothing else really to do that trying to reach out and convince the other side.

My main philosophical question out of this is what can you do if your country decides unequivocally and democratically to be racist or Xenophobic or commiting war crimes?

It also doesn’t really matter as to why a large group of human beings can agree to be racist but I think it definitely says something about humanity. In some way it makes climate change more “acceptable” in my mind. Maybe we do deserve to go extinct if after all this progress and intellectual collaboration all we get is deciding to become racist or discriminatory, to morally fail, to prey on the weak and powerless.

That’s how bad the US looks for me right now. It’s depressing in general about us humans and not just America. It’s a testament to our ability to be evil and to collaborate to be evil or mean to others.

We usually get one or two people saying to look for the helpers in time of crisis. There is no helper for this crisis. Good luck living in a dictatorship I guess.

Also we only see the past since our vision has a bit of “latency”.

So I guess we never see reality but just a delayed representation of our environment as interpreted by our brain.

I’m not sure why people are trying convince me to change my mind on something.

I have seen it in my logs with my own eyes. I wish I could be left alone without having to bother looking into it.

Whatever the reason is. Someone is crawling through dictionaries of address. It is slow but steady. It started with abuse@ and other generic addresses and then started trying names. I blocked the sending SMTP server once I realized what was going-on.

What am I suppose to do? Ignore it and just triage in inbox?

This is not at all my experience with custom mail domains.

And I say that after spending a lot of time setting SPF, DKIM and DMARC filtering.

I guess you got lucky.

Does it?

Do you think spammer will just stop at the first address and then call it a day?

In my experience there is no such thing as a “catch all” domain address. The second your domain leaks then many spammer will just go into a frenzy and try hundreds or thousands of mail aliases.

Especially since they can’t really spam Gmail as easily (since early 2024) they will even more aggressively spam any other domain.

For some reason I can’t open any of the pictures you uploaded.

Kind of doubtful there is “redundancy” and you can afford to just straight up lose a component without it having a functional impact.

I assume manufacturers would prefer to get a better component that is guaranteed to last as long as the warranty rather than put many components in parallel and just hope they are lucky not to get many failing components at the same time that are supposed to be redundant.

I asked ChatGPT about this as I was curious about the design of modern motherboard and redundancy.

Take that with a grain of salt obviously :

In some cases, motherboard manufacturers may design circuits with redundant or parallel components, but this is not the norm for most consumer-grade motherboards. Instead, multiple components, such as MOSFETs, are often used in parallel to handle higher current loads or improve power delivery efficiency, rather than as a backup in case of failure.

Key Points to Consider:

1. Parallel MOSFETs in VRMs (Voltage Regulator Modules):

Modern motherboards often use multiple MOSFETs in parallel within the VRM section to distribute the load. This improves thermal performance and ensures stable power delivery to the CPU, GPU, or RAM.

If one MOSFET is removed or fails, the others may compensate temporarily, but this could lead to overheating or instability, especially under high load.

2. Redundancy for Reliability:

True redundancy, where one component is a backup for another, is uncommon in consumer motherboards due to cost constraints. It is more likely to be found in high-end server motherboards or mission-critical systems.

3. The System Boots, But Risks Remain:

The system may still boot because the remaining MOSFETs are compensating for the missing one. However, this can stress the remaining components, potentially leading to overheating, instability, or premature failure.

4. Importance of the Detached MOSFET’s Location:

If the detached MOSFET was part of the VRM or another critical circuit, its absence could reduce power delivery efficiency and system stability. If it was part of a less critical section, the impact might be minimal.

5. Repair is Recommended:

Even if the system appears to work, running it with a missing MOSFET is risky. The component should be re-soldered or the motherboard replaced to ensure long-term reliability.

Advice for the Person:

If they suspect a detached MOSFET:

Identify its exact role on the motherboard (consult the schematic or motherboard layout if available).

Avoid stressing the system until the issue is resolved.

Seek professional repair to reattach the component if they lack the tools or expertise to do so.

While the system might seem fine for now, ignoring the issue could lead to further damage or failure.

I’m a bit skeptical on the Email alias feature but this is a really cool project.

I just don’t know how practical it is to use custom domains to receive those confirmation emails.

Wouldn’t you receive a ton of spam once your email domain leaks (which will eventually happen)?

Email is also useful for password reset.

Hey you can believe what you want. They may be in the wrong but I would say it’s statistically way more likely OP just got what he deserves.

Just like any criminal would systematically say they are innocent even after an appeal.

Maybe OP could show us screenshots of that appeal? Just curious.

Exactly.

He wasn’t banned for no reason. Every banned user says that and then a mod will show a ton of very offensive behaviour.

The Official client was mid at best and hundred of thousands of people where on various third party apps.

Then Spez wanted to sell API access to train AI so it became prohibitively expensive for most third party reddit clients to continue.

So I didn’t want to use their app and on top of that it was to sell my data to AI businesses.

I actually wanted to nuke all my comments to be sure they couldn’t use them but didn’t manage to do it reliably.

But yeah the fact that they completely killed the reddit client I used just to sell my data for AI training was the last straw for me.

Also reddit was getting quite toxic especially in some subreddits IMO.

Ah I get it.

Anyway low consumption kind of mandates that kind of flash build IMO.

Isn’t there any way you could stagger buying those SSD? Like you buy them one by one only on sales or refurbished hardware.

You could also maybe attempt a raid5 only with only 3 disks until you could buy a fourth one?

Anyway good luck!

I’m sorry if this is not relevant but I don’t have the time to read that whole of text:

I think this is at least similar to what you want to achieve.
