No, I think it's Bolivian maybe?

I've never seen Morris dancers in USA parades

I don't like your attitude. I'm agreeing with you that it is not morally acceptable , and an actor should be judged by the worst of what they're currently doing, not just sweep it under the rug.

I forget who does the dancing in costumes with bells sewn on?

So you're saying that since a company is reprehensible in one area, all their other accomplishments should be judged accordingly?

Makes sense to me.

Where is the bayBEY saying from? I love it and recognize it from "let's talk about myths, baby" podcast, but I doubt that it originated there.

Thanks for sharing! So did everyone have to print out their time based authentication codes, or were there other 2fa options, or do some students just not have 2fa enabled?

So fascinating, seriously.

My brother has one :(

I can't think of a way of talking to him about it, which wouldn't make him want to use it more.

XIII? Or possible earlier?

EDIT: I'm reading this article. Look what you made me do! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_maritime_history

I'm going to brainstorm a few ideas because I'm really curious about this. It sounds like an exciting life to live.

Would these be examples of the following?

  • a job interview with a corporate or governmental organization demanding high secrecy where you still have to log into your job portal for some reason.
  • you are a consultant on a high security technical project and you are somehow allowed to access the regular internet on a device that's not your own and use some tools for which you have an account.

These are the only things I can think of. For any regular job, I don't understand why they wouldn't just give you a hard token. One of those things that you put on a key ring, which shows you a time-based second factor string of numbers on a little LCD screen.

I had one of those and I was not doing anything sensitive. I was just an environmental educator working for the state government and I had to use it to login to the state laptop to submit my time sheets.

On the other hand, if they won't give you a hard token, because they're worried you might bring your own device that looks like a hard token and replicates their hard token except with additional spy hardware, I'm not sure why they are allowing you to log into something on that laptop.

Or if they do expect you to log into something on that laptop, I don't understand why you'd have to come up with your own custom solution rather than them have some kind of system that everybody uses.

 

I went to reply to a thread on this post and it is completely gone? Is this an error with federation or some thing? I haven't seen this happen before.

Looking for places to have realtime chats.

 

Awhile ago I saw a developer posting about their new project to recreate the home movie experience with modern smartphone -taken video clips. It might have been posted in this community.

Does anyone know how to find this?

 

OK so a year or so back, I was putting a stack of tshirts temporarily on my bookshelf, and I liked it so much I started moving more of my clothes out of the drawers and onto the shelf. So now I have 3 shelves for books, two and a half for clothes, one for rocks, seashells, and other pretty things, and 1/2 for random items.

I really like being able to see all my clothes at a glance, and it is way easier to get dressed in the morning and put away laundry. I just make sure to put newly cleaned clothes at the bottom of the stacks whenever I do laundry. Is there a computer science term for a type of stack where you read off the top and write to the bottom?

Anyway my real question for this community is, "Am I missing out by not using drawer technology?" Some part of me thinks that there must be some advantage to using drawers for clothes that I just. don't. get. (Besides the fact that it might not be normal lol - or is it? Are your clothes on the shelf? What do you think? Byeeeee!)

 

This is perfectly fine, right?

 

So like, how does Lemmy work?

When I click on a post, let's say Lemmy.World, that server sends me the page over the Internet. I get that part. But how does it do comments? Does it tell my phone to go ask lemm.ee and blahaj servers, etc, and fetch the comments?

And why does a post on lemmy.world have have a blahaj URL when I look at it? Is my server making a copy?

 

I'm ready to graduate from my Raspberry Pi era of selfhosting and buy hardware specifically for use as a server.

I've been recommended in the past to look for used Lenovo Thinkstations and/or Dell Optiplex, but it has been so many years since I've shopped for a computer, I don't know what kind of specs to look for. What are the types of specs I should look for to get the best value for money?

I'm hoping to spend around $300-400, get something that can be upgraded in the future to last 10+ years, and do the following things:

  • YUNoHost / reverse proxy
  • Nextcloud with a custom domain for email addresses, cloud drive, photos
  • Music Streaming with something like Navidrome
  • Serve static websites
  • pi-Hole
  • Maybe pi-VPN

And someday maybe:

  • Host game servers like minecraft
  • Jellyfin for videos
  • Kodi and output to TV?

So far based on my selfhosted journey, I expect to want the following:

  • Room for 3+ Hard Drives
  • External UPS (probably will go with the cheap APC at Microcenter that's always on sale).
  • Solid Power Supply / Cooling
  • probably 1000 gigabit Networking (?)

The types of questions I have for Thinkstations / Optiplex:

  • How is the Power Supply / Cooling?
  • Processor? Do I need i5? i7? Generations? AMD? Clock Speed? I'm completely lost here.
  • How much RAM do I need?
  • Do I need a discrete graphics card? Can Thinkstations / Optiplex have a graphics card added to them later?
  • Anything else I'm missing?

Thanks!
