Even if they do this, I wouldn't be averse to a less on demand version of youtube. 3rd party apps will let you load a number of videos for later viewing. Would probably help me consume media more responsibly and youtube has to deal with the additional resources needed to serve all the videos I didn't wind up watching after all.

Hot pockets are evil. Why can you eat an infinite amount of them and never feel full?

FYI fecal transplants are a thing and they address unhealthy microbiomes in the body. Someone else's shit could literally save your life from a c diff infection.

We've got shirts for this in Salt Lake City. They read "SL,UT"

I have been banned from Immersed's discord server since I made a single critical comment of their crypto land sale. No warning, just banned for a single message. They cancelled their crypto land system and to their credit refunded the investors. However they have been taking deposits for this new headset for a year + with a delivery date of "2024" which clearly isn't happening. I truly believe they are just horribly mismanaged, naive, and unable to deal with criticism. Scam? Not intentionally, but the outcome may look very similar.

Of course. If it was our Georgia she would've been shot to death.

I can show this meme to my non-trekkie friends and they won't begin to understand how fucking hilarious it is.

Thanks for mentioning this. As a current florisboard user I didn't know I have so much to look forward to!

Daring Utopia Future Fiction? (self.sciencefiction)
submitted 8 months ago by hashferret to c/sciencefiction
 

I've been loving my hard scifi recently. But I feel like it's begun to demonstrate how much easier it is to imagine all the ways things could go wrong. If fiction is how we lay an outline for the future, I wonder if anyone can recommend some more uplifting stories to me? Rather than a cautionary tale I would appreciate a story with a setting where the author dares to risk being wrong about what's right for us. Naturally this may simply be the setting for a somewhat unrelated story, but I'm curious what sorts of literature comes to mind that falls into this category.

 

I have an aging gaming desktop with a GTX 970 that I've previously used to let friends/family stream games. My area has a lot of fiber so it's surprisingly usable, even got VR working. Problem is, I'd prefer to use it as a NAS most the time as it has plenty of drive bays and I need somewhere better to run jellyfin than my desktop.

I'm somewhat aware of the options as I've used various hypervisors etc before, but I also want something as simple as possible. Because of that, I'm looking at TrueNAS. I'm aware my point of difficulty is gonna be the GPU. Is there any easy way to use it for a gaming VM at times and jellyfin encode others? If there's not some nifty feature in Proxmox or TrueNAS to solve my problem, how dumb would running a linux VM with both the games and Jellyfin be?

Forgive me if this is a more generic question than I realize. I'd be plenty happy to be pointed to some existing resources.

Confronted with the likelihood that we cannot achieve climate goals, confront socioeconomic inequality, and ultimately build a better world without significant personal sacrifice: How much are you personally capable and willing to lose? I mean this in the most earnest way possible. Acknowledging the likely possibility of working for an unethical organization while simultaneously supporting family who rely on you financially. Do you believe the amount we can and will bear aligns with the amount we must bear?
