You’ll need to think of “backup” as a different thing if you are looking at the free space. For instance, I can backup my data onto discs, but it costs buying discs. I can also make lots of copies of my images and videos automatically using SyncThing (which is open source), but it requires multiple computers to really be considered a “backup”.

This is one reason I have a “hibernate” shortcut on my desktop so I don’t have to deal with the hassle of having to hunt for that button.

If you are curious, creating your own hibernate shortcut on windows is easy:

• Right click desktop
• Select new > shortcut
• Copy this into the shortcut: “C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe /h” obviously replace C:\Windows\ with the installation drive/folder on your machine.
• (Optional: Change the icon for the shortcut to a useful picture)
• Done

A lot of people in Linux subs seem to be ready and willing to unload their “everything is dumbed down” opinion, with all the ferver of a solider heading out to war. I’m a long time computer user, programmer and hacker, so I understand these points of view, but they come across as very gate-keepy around the idea of using a computer at all. Like… I think it’s obscene that so many people would think you need to learn how to use the command-line in order to use a computer.

You guys have it wrong, I love smart GUIs that mean I don’t have to spend my life writing complex command line statements, why are there so many people trying to hold back the wonder and marvel of computers from people who haven’t spent their entire lives dedicated to learning about the computer? I mean seriously, I don’t expect any of my friends or family to be as experienced at these things as I am, and that’s okay. I want the computer to be an easy thing to use. Hell, I want the computer to be easy to use so that I can apply my skills to building things on the computer and have people pay money for them, I think that’s a fairly reasonable trade.

Apple errors be all like

“Operation couldn’t be completed (com.apple.mobilephone error 1035)”

What am I supposed to do with this?

Linux error be all like

“System program problem detected. Do you want to report it?”

Who am I reporting this to, Linus himself? He’s just going to yell at me.

Well I think I need to pick up this book, or at least the audiobook.

My only thoughts are about abuse, have the devs thought about how to limit abuse of a tagging system?

I found that IFTTT has integrations for hardware and software that doesn’t always have a clear public API that can replace it. I would like to be proved wrong on this because I’m definitely using IFTTT and would love to replace it. But it’s pretty useful still.

Is it just me, or does that archive link just not work? Thank god for Firefox Reader mode.

So we have techno-luddites deciding that we have to shun all browser advancements because they can be used for evil? Seriously? You can use a car for evil, you can use money for evil. JavaScript and CSS are perfectly cromulent technologies that serve perfectly useful functions. Let’s see an HTML-only site build a custom pizza order or let’s see an HTML-only site crop and fit an uploaded picture into a profile picture.

We shouldn’t be condemning technology, we should be condemning the uses of it that create the hellscapes that we all hate. If anything, the creators should be advocating for some means of truce with advertisers so that regular users can get some peace from disruptive ads.

I understand the frustration being leveled at general web pages though. And I’m not a moron and I understand that there is no way to speak to advertisers in general, like there is no way to seek general consensus on what users (both power and technical) want from their web experience. But I feel like we’ve all gone into our separate camps and assumed that there’s no way to reach common ground.

Maybe we need another standard.

I’ll be honest, that matches my own patterns myself. I use Reddit for some of the niche communities that don’t exist here yet, but eventually they will exist here I hope. I still have two separate accounts here for maintaining the least privilege principle you are doing too.

You’re not wrong, but it is definitely getting better. I think the organization of Lemmy takes some getting used to, and as well, I think finding new places to look on Lemmy isn’t quite as easy as Reddit is, which might be an area that the software could improve a bit.

It’s a lot of abuse to take, I’m kind of surprised more redditors haven’t jumped ship. It’s so much cozier here on lemmy, I just think maybe redditors have no idea what the water is like over here and so they haven’t even dipped a toe into any alternatives.

Not the beans!!!

Where is DataHoarders representation here on Lemmy?? Anyone know?

I’m really digging Wefwef, but I’m an android user so I feel like I’m crossing some weird rubicon of using an Apple UI from a non Apple device.

I guess what I’m saying… Ladies… Is that I’m dangerous.

been using Connect for Lemmy, it seems pretty decent so far.

To my knowledge, I’ve been using Node-Red as a service on my server (using NSSM) and it’s reverse-proxied through Apache and it’s pretty damn solid. I think maybe a long time ago when I started using it, it might have had some nodes that caused it to halt (and catch fire) but I think that might have been a bug that was fixed. It’s been solid for a while now.

Executing command line options I believe is out-of-the-box functionality. I found myself wanting to do something that wasn’t contained in the existing nodes and it’s really easy to make command line calls.
