  • yt-dlp is my go to. It's the open source project most other things use behind the scenes

  • Complete nonsense. Enterprise drives are better for reliability if you plan on a ton of writes, but ZFS absolutely does not require them in any way.

    Next you'll say it needs ECC RAM

  • And if you dont have ECC zfs just might save your bacon when a more basic fs would allow corruption

  • Do you send all outgoing email from individualized addresses too?

    I do the same as you (raccoon.uber@ball.com), but all my outgoing emails come from (raccoon@ball.com), it worked great for about 5 years until people with me in their address book started getting hacked.

  • Yeah it just doesn't seem worth it when every keyboard one encounters outside of home will be qwerty.

    I tried years ago and got up to about 25wpm on Dvorak before switching back. it was seeming like the juice wouldn't be worth the squeeze

  • I feel like most people don't even check their ISP email anymore. Why use that instead of the Gmail you've had for 18 years.

  • My grandma never learned any computerized technology more complicated than a lamp timer

    But hot dog she could program her VCR to record her soaps like a champ, even without the VCR+ codes

  • Did the kids just smoke somewhere else?

    I don't think we had an official smoking section but there was always a big crowd in the parking lot (early 2000s)

  • I love the musical instrument loan programs. I loaned a violin for a month to test out whether I wanted to learn to play it.

    I like it and the experience gave me enough of an understanding of the instrument to feel comfortable buying a used one to continue on with.

    I don't think I ever would have started learning it without the library program, the instrument is so intimidating

  • Was it ingress? If so you bastards better not be team blue.

  • Trash 80 dialing in to a Linux shell account using one of the various cli lemmy clients should work

  • I wish there was a middle ground. The grey market keys provide convenience that pirating doesn't, like steam activation.

    I stopped using key resellers for games though after learning about how they're sourced

  • Yeah I really don't get the argument that paying for YouTube premium should hide links that directly support a creator you like.

    If anything I'd complain if YouTube hid them as it would be an easy "I got mine" response
