  • You realise that to deradicalise someone you actually have to speak to them, right? I believe this is what the guy you are talking to is referring to. Deradicalisation is something both governments and leftists do when someone goes to the far right. The answer isn’t just screaming, ignoring, and killing people all the time. Have you never heard the term diversity of tactics?


  • As far as I can see you’re the person who brought up Nazis out of nowhere. That’s what they are making fun of. People randomly screaming Nazi and calling people nazis for no good reason. This was a meme about capitalists exploiting workers and basically running the planet. It had nothing to do with Nazis specifically or even American specifically yet you seem hyperfixated on both of these things for some reason. You don’t even seem to understand what Nazis even are, saying things like Marxists can be Nazis which is patently absurd. Have you ever heard of Godwin’s law?


  • areyouevenreal@lemm.eetomemes@lemmy.worldUh, yeah. That rings a bell.

    Am I missing something here? Where did anyone express support for Trump? This is the first I have heard about him in this thread - unless I have missed something obvious here this topic along with Nazism has come out of nowhere. I thought this meme was about capitalist exploitation or something. When did US politics get involved?





  • Why would you buy SSDs for backup purposes? Buy an external hard drive, they aren’t expensive. You should be making backups anyway so it’s not really an excuse, go and buy a NAS or something if you have no backup solution at all. Yes you should have done it right away if you were going to do it. Having RAID 0 as your only copy of valuable data is an awful idea. What on earth are you doing?

    Your phrasing implied that the other system would have blaringly loud fans, which it probably does not, at least if they built and configured it properly. Since people thinking more fans equals louder is an easy misconception to have I jumped to the conclusion that you had made that error. Maybe you didn’t mean to imply that the other system would be loud.

    Giving me the definition of blaring wasn’t actually helpful in any way. I knew what the word meant, so that wasn’t the actual issue. You failed to accurately understand or communicate the problem when trying to correct someone, and sounded like a pretentious knob doing it.






  • That’s why you should always test on a variety of screen sizes including mobile. That however doesn’t mean you should make your devs work on terrible machines. Then you end up in situations where it dosen’t scale correctly. It’s also terrible for developer productivity, many of whom don’t even work on the front end. I don’t think the cost of PCs is anywhere near that of offices, and I suspect the reason for not having offices isn’t monetary anyway.


  • What kind of maintenance were you doing? Building the things is turning out to be a pain for me, but actual maintenance shouldn’t be much more than for a regular PC. You still have to dust a regular PC after all. You do occasionally have to change fluid, but shouldn’t need doing more than every 4 years or so if you use something like DP Ultra or car coolant.

    That’s actually pretty much the opposite of how that works. More fans generally mean lower noise as they don’t need to run as hard to deliver the same volume of air. Same with larger fans. There is eventually a point where adding more fans hurts rather than helps, but it’s probably more fans than you would think. All of this is especially true for watercooling and radiator fans, the more radiator area and associated fans you have the better. My desktop with 3 radiators and 8 radiator fans is quieter than my server with one radiator, 3 radiator fans and 2 case fans, and that’s despite the desktop having a higher total heat load.

    I suspect the actual PC used is at least fairly powerful though. Like someone else said it’s likely using ECC as its mission critial, so chances are it also has other expensive server parts inside. Not all powerful computers actually look like anything fancy at all. This post reminds me of things like the watercooling subreddit and the amount of effort and money they put into things like aesthetics, that don’t actually improve performance at all. Even though the original point of watercooling was performance.




  • You understand that technical people often are the least likely to trust new technology and are often stuck in the mud when it comes to technology? Doubly so if you are anti-corporation. It seems anything that isn’t the Unix way of doing things can be questioned.

    There is a good meme about people who love technology vs people who actually work with the stuff. The former using IoT devices to turn their lights on while the latter uses a light switch and has a gun in case the printer starts making weird noises.
