I see what you’re saying, but usually all that was required to get the appropriate help was to say I read the manual, and I tried the XY and z that was suggested that didn’t work. What do I do now?

I think people were just looking for a demonstrated level of self-care, so they could focus on the interesting issues.

I fully concede that it looks awful, very b o f h behavior

I never got that impression. I thought people were trying to teach, a little harshly, self-reliance so that people can participate in the community while holding their own and not drowning community volunteers with already answered questions. That are in the FAQ / documentation.

Kind of the opposite of what you get with discord documentation, where people come to the support room and ask the same questions over and over and over and over again, but instead of pointing people at a documentation, they’re really sophisticated projects put a bot which kind of does the same thing

Wow. I’m smiling ear to ear. This is great!

Very organized. And I do appreciate the architecture documentation you have. How are you enjoying immich?

137 empty communities so far for hilarious chaos.

I haven’t seen a good BOFH story in forever as well…

Maybe Reddit, and Google, got good enough that you could search for your specific problem without having to know the general documentation. And the expectation simply became point me to my specific problem

This has been around for a while in research papers. Getting people’s pulse rate, and even blood pressure from videos.

Other things you can get from videos, electrical interference to determine which power grid somebody is using. Noises in the background can be mapped as well. So uploading a video deanonymizes you quite well, for properly motivated investigator.

In the escalating war against deepfakes however it will just be part of the arms race, and new deepfakes will now include those fluctuations.

I finally understand yurop now! Hahahah, I’ve been seeing the content and been generally lost!

I always thought of it like a farmer saying Yup with a accent.

Where you going? Where you coming from?

For general non-specific advice, be flexible, have a plan, have a backup plan have a backup backup plan. It’s inevitable something’s going to go wrong, don’t let that bring your mood down, treat every event as its own adventure. Meet changes with joy, and you’ll have more fun overall.

People have a wide variety of opinions and interests that are not represented well on a two dimensional left right spectrum.

Lemmy has a fair few people who will fight you over their own perceived interests.

Because Lemmy is so small it’s common for the same people to argue over their interests in every community. In the morning I catch up on the all feed in 20ish minutes (I block politics and memes).

Take that together if you say something against any groups zeitgeist or one of their trigger topics it feels like all of Lemmy is dog piling you.

Remember online isn’t the same as real life, express yourself and share your earnest ideas and don’t care about downvotes. If someone is being unreasonable just ignore/block them.

Most clients have a option to not display downvotes.

The problem is you invite every individual to decide when someone should die, so by condoning murder as political expression you REQUIRE authoritarian strong man politics.

My family has fought multiple wars, and I will fight you too, to stop you from murdering people because they are inconvenient for you.

The efficiency of converting random energy into useful energy (either mechanical or electrical) has always plagued engineering.

For computer systems your usually so concerned with getting the heat away, that your not even worried about energy capture. But if you had a large enough system you could make something, but probably not worth the effort for the complexity introduced.

Trump says awful things! However, from what we know about yesterday a 20 year old aimless man made an attempt on Trumps life, and killed one bystander, and seriously injured two more. Was this 20 year old influenced by the ‘end of society’ rhetoric during this election cycle? I don’t have data, but it seems likely. The collective culture we demonstrate has outsized impact on the more impressionable people in society. Which is why its important to hold to our principles even in conversations.

Not much of a difference, that is very much Who will rid me of this turbulent priest territory.

You can always attach a sterling engine to the waste heat of a system, its just diminishing returns.

The upvotes on the incitement of violence are the concerning things, lemmy is lurker heavy.
