Self-hosting is inherently not low effort. This isn’t memes or shitposts. This is people helping people that are trying to help themselves, a.k.a. people making an effort. Communities rely on the discretion of mods and rules specific to the community focus. If this community didn’t have some kind of bar to meet for low effort posts it would drive away participants and contributors more interested in higher effort and more interesting topics. It gets real old seeing people ask and answer the same basic questions about Plex, Jellyfin, *arrs, and docker all the time. Worrying about if this rule will be abused seems premature. Besides (as others have pointed out) there are other communities with similar interests, if you’re that concerned that your spammy no-context YouTube video got deleted, please go try your luck elsewhere.

This whole post is a lie to manipulate people into engaging with an astroturfing bot.

You want mpd to server and play the music, connected with a web front end (there are a few to choose from) accessible on the private store wifi. You should probably serve this frontend only to a certain machine on the network (like the managers computer in the back) and lock everything else out. The last time I ripped CDs on Linux I used whipper, which I believe was the successor to morituri. This is all only legal if the CDs they have already included the licensing fees to play them publicly or are themselves freely licensed. There are sources of freely licensed music out there that you can play publicly without paying.

This gives me God Emperor of Dune vibes.

Again with the toxic shaming. Nobody, except you, said anything about masturbation. Stop being fucking weird.

Wait are you Rick Berman?

So what? You’re awfully proud of your hangups. Everybody’s grandmother had a lover or lovers. Everybody’s grandmother FUCKED. Stop making totally normal life experiences weird and shameful.

I guess women aren’t allowed to be sexual? No excusing the other sexist Rick Berman nonsense. But if you really think women reading about, finding pleasure in, and talking about erotic literature with their friends and co-workers isn’t a fairly common, mundane, and totally normal thing to do without any shame, then I really don’t know what to say. This feels like a really creepy thing to take issue with.

You can save the entire ship, cure random space diseases, raise a child alone on a starship faced with existential threats on the daily, but you fuck one ghost and now men only see you as the ghost-fucker.

Because shows got a tax break for things like this.

The ratio of the size of the image to the distance from the pinhole is the same as the ratio of the size of the sun to the distance to the sun.

Can this keep num lock engaged? I swear my biggest frustration with windows lately is it’s habit of randomly and arbitrarily turning off numlock after I’ve turned it on. I never turn off numlock while working. I never use the number pad arrows. I prefer the number pad numbers and use them practically all day. And yet, several times a day I find my cursor moving around the screen instead of typing a number because windows decided that it got to control the numlock function instead of me and the dedicated light up key designed for that function that has worked fine for me for decades before.

Dude I’m not arguing that it’s correct or not, I’m saying that this is the way many people used to (and how some still do) use the language.

Yeah, that’s why my comment was basically words and phrases have shifting connotations as time passes and contexts change.

Fake and real photograph used to have a very different meaning indeed.

This is a “real” photo of Denise Richards and Paul Walker:

Primates make tools to help eating ants, among other things. It’s a bit of an unusual snack, but people eat ants too. We are anteaters? How much of your diet needs to be ants before you’re considered an anteater?

Not to be confused with disco snails.

There’s a lot of people in this thread proudly sharing how they stereotype and have preconceptions about people that they don’t actually know. And them their justification is that everyone should be a two dimensional single issue character archetype with literally no conflict or contradictions. Have you people even met any adults, especially professionals and academics, that aren’t your parents or your teachers?

You’re comparing archeology today with the field’s rather sorted past rooted in imperialism. They point out this issue in several, if not all, of the movies. This issue also comes up multiple times in the latest game. Nobody is denying that Dr. Jones is an outlier and a rogue amongst his peers. That conflict is like that core of the character’s motivation throughout. He’s a hero of western imperialism fighting fascist imperialism. We tend to view ALL imperialism in a negative light today (as it should be), but that certainly wasn’t the case when we were fighting literal Nazis.

I want the word “unalived” to be killed or murdered in the most vile and explicit way possible for a word.

Kinda surprised they hadn’t made Naomi Wildman an ensign by the end of their run.
