I was disapponted at that, I spooled up one of those instances a few months back and its federated and is magical. If only I could convince my family to move away from that old group text grumbles in person who cosplays as a sysadmin

Without getting into the technical side of things.
Normal Windows home edition is to what ever firmware your ISP (Internet service provider) puts on your router to make it play nice with their network.
Open WRT is to cracks knuckles fuck it, ill configure it myself (think Arch linux, or any program/platform where the user is given a bundle of sticks and a phone book of a manual and told “try not to hurt yourself”)
Its a community updated router firmware/software project that gives the user a bit too much control. This allowes people who know what they are doing to make some very secure, free, and complex networks, but also gives you the tools to piss off your ISP or break something.
1·2 days agoIf your booked in Florida they will put your mugshot in the paper (and now they know where you are). Sunshine laws make it seem like all crime in that state is comitted by one very dedicated couple (Florida Man/Florida Woman) with access to a cartoonish amount of vehicles, drugs, and oversized agressive reptiles.
He is the most unrealistic part of the film, he had a problem, found the most qualified person to fix it, listened to them (eventually), and then didnt take credit for it.
Glad I could help. Remember a personal pilosophy is subjective, your going to have to reach those conclusions on your own. But if you want to talk shop, nerds are here to help.
Hm… To shreads you say.
Lets break down the arguments, and throw up that content warning because were about to do a philosophy.
(Sad dead Dutch/French thinkers)
The first option was to embrace Nhilism, this option is the worst outcome because one of the logical outcomes is if the universe has no meaning, why, as a part of the universe, should you. We’re going to drop this option right here because one of the physical representation of this viewpoint is suicide and thats not a healthy state of mind to be in, plus someone would have to clean up your mess.
The second option is Soren Kierkegaards leap of faith, by putting your faith (synonomys with “meaning of life” in this context) in something other than your self, you are no longer responsible for it. A leap of faiths original intent was to join a religion (cough christianity cough), but this is Lemmy and atheists abound in the 21st century so there isnt much point delving into this option here. The point is that your faith is put into an entity higher than yourself. I would argue that it does not need to be an abastract entity like the abrahamic god, gaia or Tom Cruise anymore, anything that can be used to provide a higher objective meaning works (as irrational as it is). This option could be viewed as suicide in a philosopical sense because you cease seeking meaning, because you claim to have already found it.
The final point, rejection of the absurd, is unfortunatly the last option and also requires the most effort. To use it as a personal philosophy involves the rejection of objective meaning and focusing on subjective meaning in spite of the absurdity of it all. That is the part that I feel takes effort, spite (without anger) is a taxing state of mind to maintain, and it does not provide the structures that tends to come with the package of option two. To quote many of the other thread and to use it as a jumping off point, the phrase “Do no harm”, the first word is Do, an action, something altered in the universe, something changed. If the universe is meaningless, then to revolt is to simply doing something and putting in the effort to make it a subjectivly good something.
This is the point where people would comicly point out that Camus being very French (Algerian), rebelion and revolt are sorta their national past times, and Ive always gotten a chuckle out of that.
Damn this took all day to write and got a little rambly… Thank you for coming to my TEDTalk.
First, great choice in reading (Im a fan of Camus as well).
As for the meaning of life thing…
Thats the neat part. You don’t.
Thats why in absurdist fiction like Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy the answer to life, the universe and everything is 42. Its not supposed to make sense and the universe is under no obligation to do so for you (the books even postulate that the universe does not want anyone to know so if someone figures it out it winks out of existance and replaced itself with something weirder, some scientists think this has happened before).
That goes back to Camus point about the remedies for the bleakness of early-mid 20th century philosophy. He proposed three options, Nhilism, a leap of faith (looking at you Kierkegaard), or absurdism, the last being what the doctor perscribes, but also requires the most effort because you have to find your question to the ultimate answer your self… Or not, who cares. Lets go spend some time by a lake that thinks its a gin & tonic.
Orzo (rice shaped pasta) and peanut butter, its ultra-dense camping food, never need to make more than a small bowl.
4·15 days agoPeople will always be nostalgic for their childhood because they did not understand what was going on in the world at the time and had little to no responsibilities.
Never do anything you would be afraid to explain to the paramedics.
What do you mean? An african or european swallow?

9·23 days agoSome old floppy disks like the OG version would be a nice novelty, even if noone used them. EvE online did a thing like that for its 20th birthday box. They included a floppy disk with some old game data on it (I think it was part of an ARG, but I just had fun trying to read the data)
Most of the video game subs, BG3 is active enough, but I like Tribes and EvE online and their subs are sorta dead. I know niche titles wont have as much discussion, but representation would be nice.
2·29 days agoAww, shazbot.
Again?
Clear out the parking lot around The Ellipse and have them drive around that. Make sure he is facing away from the center so he cant see them circle around, and just keep going until he is tuckered out and gets tucked into bed.
I had some DYI hackable computer kits (ClockworkPI) that I orderd last year, both of them arrived in the last few weeks. Im very glad they made it through customs before most of this shit gets enacted.
2·1 month agoDito, still have RIF installed on my phone so every time I click a reddit link im reminded of what they did with a 403: forbidden error. I like it better over here anyway, nicer people who give a shit and fewer bots (or atleast fewer obvious ones).
