This is incredible!

American sites like this so rarely ship to France, or it costs a litteral fortune just in shipping, here it’s 130€ for a 12TB shipping included!

Wow.

I Do Not Need A 12TB Hard drive.

I Do Not Need a 12 TB Hard drive!

I mean or do I?

Thanks 💖

What was the countries if you don’t mind?

I moved from Sweden to France and that started out with a girl friend asking me out of the blue if I wanted to do a (studying) year in France? Sure why not?

Americans drinking lead water and testing cocaine to see if it cures laziness, fitting shoes with x-rays, you’re truly the most adventurous people in some ways!

Rejuvenation technology!

They have already rejuvenated an old mouse back to mid life!

It’s like battery tech though, small small increments.

Such a shame the remake with Moebius and Dali (among others) wasn’t made.

And what about the ass-coffee?

Sennheiser makes sturdy, and good sounding (IMO) headphones. You can buy anything too if it breaks or wears out to fix it when needed.

This means there are lots on the second hand market too.

Hey, don’t be shy ;-)

It feels like the nineties/2000 just called :-D

I pay 10€/m for “unlimited” 5G (186GB/month IIRC).

Yes, you cannot outrun the fork :-)

Ditch the sugar!

Test post

I got som weird behaviour, like nothing worked very well, with 0.19.0 so I updated to 0.19.1 and after quite a while (small instance, beefy PC) it starts to work again, it seems.

Except I am now a moderator everywhere. Maybe it doesn’t work, I won’t try, except asked, so can someone make a post that I can sticky or delete just to see what’s happening?

Cheers!

Thanks!

Interesting, how would you configure that? I mean if it’s easy, I could authorize, upload and remove the authorisation.

Edit: would it be so easy as adding the file extensions and ‘up’ the upload limit?

Okaay yeah that seems completely obvious when you think about it. I was a tee worried you’d have to like block everything everything :-)

If I don’t go the whole peertube way, I probably just link the videos. Good advice, thanks!

Thanks, I could start out just using someone’s peertube, but where is the fun and tinkering in that :-)

I will keep it in mind for a fallback solution though.

Oh man, I checked out Peertube and it’s amazing! Obviously overkill for my needs, but it seems like a really good platform (and it’s from France, yay!).

Only worry I have, will my instance “mirror” other I stances? I’m confident sharing videos because I know they won’t be looked at very much, but with a sort of decentralized cache system it could be costly (in bandwidth).

Thanks again, I’m at a new job, it’s summertime, but soon I think I’ll dig into the whole compiling Lemmy thing checking out how it all works :-)

I’m a huge complexity & somehow network nerd so at least I’m going to see some interesting stuff and Rust seems to be quite abordable for an old-timer.

Hello RoundSparrow, and again thank you for your help when I was in trouble setting up my little instance!

It runs well now :-)

Just as a backdrop I’m curious about how Lemmy works (I’m building a sharing protocol & implementation, decentralised, takedown safe, rugged, … It feels like how Lemmy is built on top of its protocol) and I love Lemmy and how it “federates” 💗 so I want to know more about it all.

When you say packages get forwarded to whatever instance wanted (if I understand correctly) you don’t “unpack” (e.g check if it’s a valid request) which seems logic, the end instances does do the security check right? I mean if the end instance doesn’t check, you checking won’t help them out.

But then again, if I understand you correctly, the trust is split in two; the poster from A posting on B, then B sending all its posts to C, D, E, …

Which would mean it’s enough to trust B to trust A. If you trust B enough :-)

Guess I’m off to learn Rust and try to compile all this :-)

Thanks again, and sorry for the ramblings. It’s late here and I have not very much time.
