Lemmy now has export/import for settings, including blocklist.

How am I to tell who is a tankie, vs a wumao, vs a Russian bot troll? It can be hard to tell who is commenting in good faith.

I’m kidding, of course. I just block them all. No one using these talking points is worth my time.

Gotta love tankies unironically parroting Putin’s disinformation.

its pretty clear. You’re conversing with a tankie.

Just as an FYI, whether lie detector tests are accurate or not, lying in a polygraph interview for a federal background check is a crime. Polygraph interviews can and do sometimes lead to criminal prosecution.

wow. That’s a seriously shitty attitude, even if they did actually work for you, which … they don’t.

This sub is “Today I Learned”, not “Today You Learned.” OP just learned about it and wanted to discuss with other people. Seems reasonable.

And, indeed, though I knew most of this, I’ve still found some of the discussion interesting. What, then, is your problem? No one is forcing you to visit the thread at all.

even less know Rust.

Hmm. If only there were a way the developers who already know another popular language could contribute to help the community. I suppose someone could make a Lemmy -compatible server in another, more popular language. Nah, that’s crazy talk.

FYI, in case you did not notice: nutomic, the user you’re replying to, is one of the two creators of Lemmy. Make of that what you will.

The issue is also rampant with PS5, unfortunately.

Unfortunately, PS5 controllers have the same issue. Slightly cheaper, but same exact shitty parts for the joystick. Going to try aftermarket (with serviceable parts) for my next one.

People couldnt see the Grand Pricks because of the condoms. Dick move.

I don’t torrent much, but my NZB and torrent clients both get throttled on a schedule. I have no need for my automations to go fast or fill up my NAS overnight (slight hyperbole but I do often get 50MB/sec on well-hosted downloads, which is not sustainable in terms of storage cost.)

I pause during the day for work, low throttle (500KB/s) during non-work hours in morning and evening, and at night once we’re asleep a moderate cap (5MB/sec. ) I also have some mild traffic shaping QoS on the router so the kids streaming won’t affect my Zoom meetings, for example.

Things added manually go straight to the top of the queue, and sometimes I’ll un-throttle for a particular download that I’m waiting for.

Unpopular opinion: The open core model is underutilized.

Sure, but not all readers of the thread will be familiar.

I assume because Bitcoin has a public ledger and Monero doesn’t. Its more than that, but that’s the gist. Monero literally exists to offer additional privacy over Bitcoin.

No idea about those VPNs in particular, but I assume its a similar privacy issue, such as keeping logs…

That’s been going on since Blockbuster was a growth company. Like 20 years ago, for the TV (or maybe DVD, I forget which) release of Get Shorty, they 'shopped in an Oldsmobile Sillouette minivan as a product placement, replacing the original vehicle.

“Its the Cadillac of minivans.”

edit: Actually, the Olds was the one in the theatrical release, which got replaced with another make/model for TV. All the releases I can find so far include the Sillouette.

Sorry, best we can do is some unrelated ASCII art.

Big hello-fellow-kids energy.
