Now I am waiting for time when they move us-east-1 physical security to run in us-east-1... Thus locking themselves out when needing some physical intervention on servers to get backup.

It's literally a system of patronage, so yes. That's what the patrons sign up for.

So you are alleging that Reddit manipulates vote totals to affirm their biases? There's plenty wrong with Reddit, but I haven't seen any credible evidence that this is the case.
iamtedd · 2 months ago
No, I'm saying nothing of the sort. Look at the context to which i replied.

I live in Australia and I can't log into government services using my myGov account on Firefox. Works fine on Chromium.
iamtedd · 2 months ago
I have no issues with mygov in firefox (on linux of all platforms). I don't even whitelist ublock origin on that domain. Check your other extensions.

The AI narration was off-putting, but the video footage was cool.
iamtedd · 2 months ago
That is not AI. The same voice narrates at least two years ago. Just scroll down in the channel's video list.

> There are plenty of platforms even easier than that where you can click "install" on "apps" that have already been configured.

Yeah, like TrueNAS, where they've decided it was good entire to run Kubernetes on NAS hardware, with all the fun and speed that comes with. You just hit "Install", wait five minutes, and you get something half-working but integrated with the rest of their "product".

I'll stick with configuration I can put in git, patch when needed and is easy to come back to after 6 months when you've forgotten all about the previous context you had.

Nit: TrueNAS migrated away from Kubernetes in 2024.

> I watch ten creators. I divide $10 per month between them evenly. They each get $1 per month.

No, they don’t. How are you magically sending them this money? They all signed up for that method? And it doesn’t charge a minimum transfer fee?

You’re unserious.

iamtedd · 3 months ago
By the same method I'll be alternatively sending to YouTube.

That's not the point and you know it.

Creators say that premium is a huge chunk of their YouTube revenue. I'm inclined to believe them over some random like you.
iamtedd · 3 months ago
Either:

I watch ten creators. I divide $10 per month between them evenly. They each get $1 per month.

Or:

I pay for YouTube premium. It costs $10 per month. I watch ten creators. The $10 goes to YouTube.

I make the following assumptions:

* YouTube only takes a portion of that $10

* YouTube divides the remaining money evenly across the creators I watch (10)

Each creator gets less than $1 per month

Which gives the creators more revenue?

And this W11 version of Notepad takes longer to open than Sublime Text and about equal to Firefox. On NVMe.

It used to be instant, which is something you really notice the difference with when it changes.

iamtedd · 3 months ago
The fucking start menu used to be an actual windows component that opened instantaneously. It's a web app now, sometimes taking seconds to open.

I also noticed a lot of the time windows just ignores me double clicking on things in file explorer, leaving me to sit there wondering if I have to do it again.
