WTF

Jump
  • I've just checked 5hrs worth and some users are gonna get themselves snagged by screenshotting these dickbutts. Whether that's by their ISP or whatever, and it seems might be wise to hunker down and ask active community members for moar reports?

    Main thing is thou did you manage to get your openssh-server working on Android yet instead of using the client? I made that fugg up first time.

  • That'd be dependent on your works IT policy and I can hear the resounding NO from my IT dept here at home :/

    However if they're fairly lax, you could install it on anything from a Pi to a spare laptop.

    Besides like I say it's now saving me money, I've also got the bonus of having off site backup storage at a family member's now since I gave them an old Pi4 of mine, setup the arrrr stack/Jellyfin/Jellyseerr etc and they love me so much now because of that, I don't think they'd even notice they're secretly part of my 3.2.1 backup solution (since they also get my remote IT support + their adblocker on their phone via Tailscale anywhere) ;)

  • Nah they're connecting to their home network via a Tailscale exit node which basically runs all your requests traffic through your device/router at home/ external server, P2P encrypted.

    And if it's got an adblocker on that network you soon notice if it's not connected since all the ads come flooding in.

    I too third Tailscale, since it is literally now saving me money because work has give us pretty darn fast WiFi albeit with a nanny filter which the above exit node breaks you out of so I now don't pay for as much data on my cellular plan.

  • By your logic

    When people use that word they usually have their own logic burnt into their brain. But, bide with me here please.

    I don't really see any "logic" whatsoever moving/ consolidating/closing an existing community (with inactive accounts as mods) outside of the Instance admins closing it from a community request. Those users might have a preference to use another Instance, for instance, because of hosting laws etc (I dunno).

    Maybe they don't like lemdro.id perhaps for its hosting company or whatever, maybe they just wanna use their own Instance but subscribe to that community?

    Consolidation should really only happen in my own opinion if the community themselves + the Instance admins are asking for it and I can't see that yet.

  • Yeah but this is not answering my question.

    If we have multiple communities across the fediverse that can report, cross post, and federate isn't that the better solution rather than silo'ing things to one Instance / set of mods?

  • Lemmy is order of magnitudes smaller than Reddit

    Yeah, that's kinda my point too. When the Digg > reddit migration happened I didn't promote my community at all. Still growing, even though spez has come in and yoinked it.

    If c/Xiaomi, or c/Android, or c/Google in the fediverse becomes larger in the other instance it's still beneficial to have all of them since if one goes down, the other serves the fediverse an alternative right?

  • Again I'm not sure the admins of LW actaully want to migrate any community and I'm also not really sure why, it's needed. Can't these things live in harmony?

    One of the best things I ever did was intentionally not promote my first community I ever made since I knew it was asking for it in doing so, and rather left it to grow by itself.

    Which it is (albeit on fucking reddit)

  • Yeah I kinda get ya, but still don't agree with competing solely on numbers and feel it could lop off someone's feed without them wanting/realising it.

    And like u/empty. I've worked with fellow mods over on reddit who, to this day if you looked at their profile you'd think they were a dead account.

    But then, if you check the modlogs it's like yikes, this guy does 95.66% of the grind. All Praise the u/empty evil mod that shall not be named. 😘

  • Huh. We can't have both?

    Maybe I've got the idea of the fediverse wrong here but those mods can report stuff on our instance and, vice versa?

    Modding them up to close down the other community was something that the admins of lemmy.world and c/Android weren't too happy about last time I checked.

  • u/empty certainly lives up to their username :D

    Umm, I'm not too sure what they could do to be honest other than mods like me doing not much at all, and have they been active in the modlogs (I'm currently mobile and haven't checked like a good lazy mod 😇) but I'm just not seeing it?

    Also, cc @coles@lemdro.id

  • And then "punish" the motorhome owners for negligence. No negligence fines for the Border Force missing then and/or inquiry about straight up lying about finding the stowaway later on?

    lol, you couldn't make it up. Surely there's a police report stating that the couple phoned it in and is in black and white.

  • They're probably skint and need a loan.

    Problem is, they created it? Oops

  • Try installing the server with this command instead

    sudo apt install openssh-server

  • Coming up against any errors, and what have you tried exactly?

  • Were they / are they on the 3 network?

    If so, that's why because 3 has never had a 2G network at all ;)

  • Kinda reminded me of this post

    Albeit the kerning on those virtual keys are making me all itchy. Horrible horrible implementation from Google yet again when they could've done it right.

  • I've picked up running an i2p node again for the last few weeks since I feel it's a safer thing to use considering my governments recent shitbaggery, and while it's hard to find a fair amount of niche shit the clearnet/recent stuff actually downloads at a decent rate.

    The more people start firing up nodes now, the better it'll become down the line hopefully.

  • Download Wikipedia, seed Anna's archive for a ratio of 2.1+ and then turn it off.

    Turn it on again in 2 years time and observe.

  • Call it astroturfing, call it naivety, call it coercive behaviour or whatever.

    But you bought your phone which has the latest upstream release of updates from the OEM. People then coming in and telling you that Google is bad is fucking ironic to me.

    I get it; I self host a fair amount of things locally these days but not solely because of politics and more, frugality? But chiding others for sharing what is a simple post of "hey guys, I got this shit early" is bollocks and I'll call each and every time.

    Shakes head.
