It works great for a closed group of people, all on one instance. Another data point that federation is hard.

I would like to believe that say amphibians would adapt eating flies or other insects if mosquitoes are lacking.

Bees, wasps, ok, got it.

But mosquitoes? I'be yet to find a biologist that would advocate for preservation of mosquitos. Kill them with fire.

I have no clue. Root nuked the logs? Why? OOM killer does not do that.

This really is plain robbery, somehow legal.

For me, switching from chrone to ff around 3 years it felt the opposite. Ff opens so much faster. Also scrolling is way smoother.

4 things white people can do to start making the fediverse less toxic for Black people (DRAFT!) in c/[email protected]

This is all hard to do because it is hard to determine people's race on lemmy. Some usernames give it away but most don't. And I don't go snooping trough their post history to find that out.

Your IQ is in top 91%

What does that even mean? There is no "highest IQ". They are also definitely not smarter than 91% of people?

Japan is on the verge of a $400 billion fire sale of U.S. debt. This could break the back of the Treasury market and devastate Americans’ finances. in c/[email protected]

Oh and the implication is that that could further devalue US bonds. Got ya, thanks.

Electricians of fediverse, should I have my selfhosting box grounded? (programming.dev)
 

I know that the answer is yes, I should, but outlets near the setup are not grounded (even though they look like they are) and I don't want to have wires running though my living room.

The real question is what are potential problems ? Occasional system reboots? Permanent damage to PSU? Permanent damage to other components?

Lemmings, what's your self hosted server power usage? (programming.dev)
 

I'll just come out and say it: 50W. I know, I know an order of magnitude above what's actually needed to host websites, media center and image gallery.

But it is a computer I had on-hand and which would be turned on a quarter of the day anyway. And these 50W also warm my home, although this is less efficient than the heat pump, of course.

What's your usage? What do you host?
