@tomasino Bing seems to do better then, but google has gotten rid of the translation entirely.

@stuff (It is a Legacy 36 Limited edition though, so it's very nice for a used car.)

@stuff I didn't want to buy new, and all they had on the lot used was that one Legacy 36, and a bunch of foresters and outbacks.

@stuff AWD cars are awesome. I took an AWD Jeep Compass rental over Monarch Pass in a blizzard and didn't slip once. Now I have my own Subaru Legacy AWD, and it's great.

@union So, I imagine if they pass it this will become a new tactic in the political game. Can you impeach the opposing president twice so that they fall under this act? Lets find out.

@stuff I like to have multiple feeds, like folders. If I have spare time, I'll go browse the noisy feed and see if there's anything interesting there. I usually don't read it in depth though, just skim it to see if there's anything interesting. I do the same thing with RSS, making a folder for sites that post 20+ times per day to isolate them from more important stuff I don't want to miss when skimming.

@union I've been thinking about making a separate account on my server just to follow people who post constantly, so that I can put all the noise in one place...

@jaycie $0. Since I pay $5 per month + $15/yr for a self-hosted server more tailored for my own needs, and allow list federation sounds very stifling.

The way we treat computers today, as dangerous objects to be feared and locked down — save for approved and sanitized drips from the mothercorp — is a tremendous disservice to a new generation of computer enthusiasts.

@stuff https://youtu.be/k9pxbz62rbo?t=2865 This guy thinks that if Gamestop does sell some of their shares, they're going to do it in such a way that it will make the company more valuable for the shareholders. I hope he's right, we'll see.

@stuff @Moon @emilis Would that help gamestop's financial situation? I'm sure some of the people buying would consider that a positive if gamestop sold shares at the current price and got enough cash to let them last through a few more years.

@fink @projectgus @kemonine @requiem You would have to define a cron job on each source for each destination, along with giving each destination an authorized key entry for every source that will connect to it, it's a lot of manual work for doing zfs syncing. Each destination gets a full copy of the data in the mount point though. Documentation says you can encrypt mount points and sync them encrypted as well, but I haven't tried.

https://youtu.be/dTchVKxx7Fo The guy who makes this also draws a comic that I read.

@requiem @kemonine @projectgus I use ZFS snapshots for backup with a combination of Syncoid and Sanoid. Sanoid maintains the snapshots and clears them out on schedule, and Syncoid synchronizes them with a remote zfs site. It's not exactly automatic though, you have to put a cron line in for every destination and every mount point you want to backup, and need ssh authorized keys defined on the destination site.

@tinyjude Well, the way I mostly use it is to follow people who share their fediverse address elsewhere that I follow, then to basically see who they reshare, and look at their timeline to see if what they're saying is interesting... and just slowly expand out that way.

@tinyjude If your site is using Mastodon, then it's pretty similar to Tweetdeck, if you ever used that.

@lunduke Ok, I'll talk to you on the BBS then. :)

@ademalsasa Never used WhatsApp.
