  • On one hand I have my personal firstname-lastname-dot-com I’m still hosting for years. I’m not a webdev but WordPress is awfully bloated and everything else needs a touch of webdev skills.

    So it’s been at “coming soon I’m working on it welcome to sample example theme page” for years, but hey it’s indexing well based on age alone!

    The other is a fun clever one I route through cloudflare to access all my home server stuff via HTTPS over TailScale. Never have to expose any ports to the big scary world wide web. :p




  • Magnets near computers at all while we’re at it LOL.

    We learned to tolerate a big purple-green splotch in the corner of my family’s ultra heavy CRT display after I held one of those neat telescopic-magnet-wands too close to it once.

    Then I learned there was a “degauss” function!

    That seemed like magic how fast it made the unsightly blemish, and my parents’ irritation, vanish. XD

    I remember seeing tutorials on making a neat degaussing contraption using magnets and an electric drill, too. O.o

    Hard drives though…probably not as easily fixed.

    Seriously believe even on Lemmy there’s gonna be weaponized sockpuppets/bots that try to speak the language in order to discourage voting: “Oh if you’re really based you’ll just protest by staying home.”

    “You’re a neoliberal shill if harm reduction is your strategy rather than overthrowing the system and rebuilding it into an enlightened paradise overnight.”

    I fancy myself an anarchist in ideals, but I’m sure as heck filling a ballot for Kamala so I don’t have to start taking my “bugout country” plans AS seriously yet…

    For a lot of reasons, but if the opposition wins, everybody who works for a living is gonna get waffle-stomped, and the only ones who will get stomped harder are those who can’t work for a living.

    We gotta play the hand we’re dealt and deal with the biggest fires first…

    Now it’s all AI written. Top 15 hits be like:

    "Many are wondering why PC LOAD LETTER is displayed on their printer, and they would be right to ask this, because printer errors can be frustrating.

    First let’s start with the basics;

    What is a printer?

    Damn, it feels good to be a gangsta…"






  • Lmao that place looks like a supervillain fortress complete with ominous red glow and super high walls with aggressively angled wrought iron.

    It also has fully kitted out paramilitary-looking security that don’t screw around. They don’t just have like, one sad Securitas agent dinging the perimeter while catching up on How I Met Your Mother lol.

    But seriously, chances are a lot of good data goes through there too. Don’t shut off our connection to the outside world it kinda sucks here. :( :( :(

    I seriously wonder what kinda data flows through there though. Boggles the mind to fathom.
