  • Why is alcohol legal if it's much more harmful than marijuana?

    Jump

  • I know this is a really common comparison, but I feel like this is also kind of weird. I personally believe both should be legal with obvious constraints in the realm of drunk driving/etc. Basically, do what you want with your body as long as you aren't risking undue harm on others.

    Main point though, I don't feel like it's a sound argument to equate the legality of alcohol to the legality of marijuana. Making either illegal is shaky on their own merits and trying to put both in the same category makes both look unfavorable.

  • I get where you're coming from and I want to be on your side, but this can get real tricky depending on the... I guess belief systems that make up the majority of the people on the bus.

    I see where your hearts at, and I like it, but even though a lot of them are being assholes about it, some of the people in the thread make a good point. How we feel about 'group pressure' depends a lot on which group is most numerous at the time.

  • Is rpi still the single board go-to?

  • A refurbished tiny/mini/micro PC will use more power in terms of sheer numbers, but the cost is still so small on them that it's really not worth considering for most.

  • Hey hey, no reason to bring up the past.

    I think we agree, the past is over.

  • When Pi-hole is down?

    Jump

  • Seconding the request to share your work.

    That is an amazing idea you've come up with that I never considered, but now I need it.

  • When Pi-hole is down?

    Jump

  • I can back this up with experience.

    I'm actively running two piholes for years now. About 2/3rds of my traffic does go to the primary and some seem to 'lock on' to using just one, but most devices will swap between the two at their leisure.

  • How long should I expect a NAS to last?

    Jump

  • People have tested them long term at this point. Outside of a few rare exceptions, there's not a noticeable difference in reliability between shucked drives and 'normal' drives. They're the same stock but just rebranded and have to be cheaper because they're marketed primarily for retail as opposed to enthusiast/enterprise who are willing to pay more.

  • You're Not Imagining It: Google Search Results Are Getting Worse, Study Finds

    Jump

  • I could blame a lot of things here, but it's just obviously been far too long since I've done basic math. I appreciate you fact checking me.

  • Why'd they stopped making tv shows as good as x-files?

    Jump

  • Have you seen Fringe? It's a tv show from about a decade ago, very similar vibe to the X-files.

    If you don't like that and combined with all the other stuff in this thread, then I think you might just not like TV as a medium anymore.

  • Having maintained Linux systems for over a decade, I instantly distrust anyone who claims they understand Linux regardless of what they say next.

  • Leaker shares mounting Nintendo Switch Mini or Switch Pocket evidence, offers up release date and price predictions

    Jump

  • Man, even though you didn't actually mention it, reading your comment and seeing all the words so close together, I really want a Steam Deck Nano.

    Remote play first device with a focus on portability and first party support from Valve. I feel like the market for that is probably too small for Valve to bother, but I'm so down for that.

  • Budget Rule

  • Large homogenous objects make noise. Most theories i've heard think it's a result of vibration/internal stresses.

  • I have no access to a home printer, will a library or FedExOffice or UPS Store let me print via Bluetooth?

    Jump

  • The UPS here just gives you a computer to look at, it's not super secured or anything special here, if you can get it connected, you can print on it.

  • Starfield's new PC patch delivers the game we should have had at launch

    Jump

  • It's still a good time, just not for a long time.

    They made a huge universe and then filled it all with copies of a very small subset of items. It feels like Fallout/Skyrim/etc had a lot more unique content on launch even though the 'world' of starfield is technically a lot larger and that makes it feel even emptier.

  • Commentor criticizes resume submission in Lemmy World's Call for a volunteer Junior Cloud Engineer position, downvoted

    Jump

  • I think the issue is that it's not actually a job as there is no pay involved.

  • why do some people really dislike google??

    Jump

  • They did also kill hangouts... and pretty much every other messaging platform they've ever created, sometimes just for kicks. It might be incompetence as opposed to anything malicious there.

  • Humane’s AI Pin costs $699 and $24 a month with OpenAI and T-Mobile integration

    Jump

  • I feel like the primary aim is to create a minimalist art piece first and a functional device as an afterthought. If you stop thinking of it as a phone, and think of it purely as an attempt at creating a status symbol, it all kind of makes sense.
