What is it that you want to talk about? There’s plenty about programming, math, and stuff like that. Maybe other stuff too, but that’s the stuff I’m into. Hacker News is definitely overrated and always has been though.

Somewhere in the middle I guess. Same answer as for almost everyone, I imagine?

If Mozilla died would I quickly be finding a larger chunk of websites that aren’t supported?

Likely yes, as Google will keep enshittifying the web unless stopped by antitrust or whatever. Which isn’t looking so likely.

clubhouse.com? I don’t know anything else about it really.

I believe I was thinking of Clubhouse but I haven’t checked into it much.

No, Jitsi is a chat program. I must have been confusing Rumble with some other thing. But as with youtube, the video collection is much more important than the software. Releasing all the youtube software wouldn’t change youtube’s dominance even slightly.

Rumble is real time voice chat right? Closest I know to that is Jitsi Meet. For text chat there are many irc networks.

I just download the mp3 and play it with mplayer. Don’t need no apps.

I don’t even remember many times Firefox/Mozilla has changed its extension API and broken everyone’s add-ons. It gets tiresome.

See the existing posts there, I guess, or look at the reddit version. I agree that there’s not much point in cross linking it unless there’s a significant discussion thread for that post. But reddit got those sometimes.

Yeah I made c/savedyouaclick in the hope of getting people de-clickbaiting stories, but I was the only poster afaict. I wonder if calling it newssummararies could help.

50GB of flac = maybe 20GB of Vorbis amirite? Is that 450GB of flac in your screen shot? It would fit on a 256gb phone even without an SD card. A 512GB card is quite affordable these days. Just make sure to buy a phone with a slot, and think of it as next level degoogling ;).

Yeah I know there’s lots of music in the world but who wants to listen to all of it on a moment’s notice anyway?

Can’t understand why this is interesting, as phones now have a lot of storage space, even the ones that don’t have SD card slots. Just store the music that interests you directly on the phone.

I haven’t looked in a few years but 20TB is probably plenty. I agree that Wikipedia lost its way once it got all that attention online and all that search traffic. Everyone should have their own copy of Wikipedia. I used to download the daily incremental data dumps but got tired of it. I still have a few TB of them around that I’ve been wanting to merge.

The text is in not-exactly-convenient database dumps (see other commenter’s link) and there are daily diffs (mostly bot noise), but then there are the images and other media, which are way up in the terabytes by now. There are some docs, maybe out of date, about how to run the software yourself. It’s written in PHP and it’s big and complicated.

Changing employment status is a qualifying event or whatever it’s called, so assuming the company offers its employees coverage immediately on hiring (not all do), you shouldn’t have to wait for open enrollment. However, while health coverage is a common benefit of employment, it’s not universal and policies vary by employer. That is: ask the company, or if for some reason you don’t want to ask, get a copy of the employee handbook, maybe by asking one of your co-workers for it. The info for the particular company is likely to be in there.

How much do you expect to pay for the 24 NVMe disks?

It’s possible for a while but there is a whack-a-mole game if you’re doing anything they would care about. So you will have to keep moving it around. VPS forums will have some info.

Never used any of them and get even more glad of it with passing time.
