I usually only keep documents and media. Programs can be redownloaded and reinstalled (and it might be better to reinstall them in case you move to a new OS anyway to ensure compatibility).
For docker specifically, only keep stuff that's specific for your instance; which you normally setup as an external volume anyway. Docker is designed such that you should be able to nuke the container, and all persistent data is restored via an external volume on the host. If you're not doing that, you should immediately go and set that up now (to get the data out safely, setup a volume connection such that the container path is new - that way you don't accidentally destroy what's there, copy the stuff you need out, then readjust the path so it's correct)
Aannddd blocking deadline.com articles. Thanks!
As an educator myself, I agree with all of the points they mentioned in the article. I'm seeing the affects right now of students who have over-used AI, that are losing the ability to critically think, and inability to create well-structured essays. I'm not a proficient writer by any means (my course is a research course so the focus is on the research, not on the writing itself), but students have submitted essays with paragraphs of absolute nonsense. It's strange - sometimes paragraphs will initially seem like it's making a point, but won't end up actually making it.
As much as I hate the slop that comes across my desk now, this is the world we live in today. I've tried boycotting it, but it doesn't work; Students will use AI anyway. The worst part is that sometimes it'll clearly be AI, but I don't have any tools to prove it. I can't prove it, so they just lose marks on shit writing.
Instead of trying to fight against new tech, I think this is one of those things where we need to teach how and when to appropriately use AI; and restructure courses to enforce the new teaching methods. There is a time and place for LLMs; but it's a slow process to readjust courses for it.
I'm taking the stance that Putins got some dirt on him, or he's being held hostage via assassins. We all saw how close he was assassinated. Definitely russian special ops with how precise that shot was. No way would anyone like him be able to get in normally without external help, and no one sane would try to dismantle the US Gov't from the inside. Notably he's doing it with such efficiency - can't be a moron & get into office AND be dumb enough to dismantle the govt like he is. BRICS even got Elon helping to take the govt down; and now they're forcing them to create a 3rd party to destroy the US political system...
...Or they're just fucking idiots
I hate how this official letter reads like one of his social media posts
Full disclosure: didn't read the full article. But im 0% surprised they're floundering, and desperately trying to squeeze every penny they can out of players.
Yet another example of why im avoiding AAA studios where I can
I looked into it, and I'm now working on setting up my own server! (Just running into issues with setting it up on my unraid server :/)
I'm in the same boat with a few others here when it comes to some games like Halo and Fallout. But I feel like I'm on the brink with 2 new ones:
- Doom: I played the original when I was a kid and got bullied for it (or probably being a general nerd). 2016 and Eternal were really popular and the franchise took off; but Dark Ages feels off. I played Dark Ages for a bit, put it down, and haven't picked it up since. I think Doom is going down the shitter, especially what they did to Mick Gordon.
- Mother Mother (a band): My SO and I love their music for how unique and interesting it is; and we went to one of their first concerts at a small venue when they came into town ~10 years ago ish? Must have been <500 people. Generally no one else liked their music we shared it with, so we kept it to ourselves. Now? We went to another one a few months ago and it was at a HUGE stadium; absolutely packed. I think one of their songs went viral on TikTok - My Daddy's got a gun. We're proud of what they've accomplished, but really hope they don't lose their identity in trying to become even more popular.
It says Hungary was violating Brussels laws, but doesn't explain what and the nuances of why the Danish are going after Hungary.
From what I found: Hungary put a new law in place that says they can investigate and prosecute anyone that "threatens the sovereignty of Hungary" [source]. But because of how the law is written, it violates the EU policy that states citizens have the right to privacy.
It seems like the Danish are pulling an article 7 (to block Hungary from voting) so they can boot out Hungary who is an opponent to Ukraine becoming an EU member; which is causing problems with the EU supporting Ukraine against Russia
- Don't go to bed with the same clothes you wore during the day. The perspiration will make you really cold at night
- Even though it's warm during the day, don't assume it'll be warm at night. The temp differences can be quite drastic
- pack your clothes for the next day in your sleeping bag so they're warm in the morning. I usually either roll them up and use them as a pillow, or put them deep inside my sleeping bag by my feet.
This is rreeaaalllyy close to what I want. However, it's missing WordPress. I think I'll set it up and play with it anyway just to see though...
Sure did own those libs by... checks notes... loosing access to health care
