  • Synology Diskstation DS1522+ $699.00

    Synology Diskstation DS1621+ $899.99

    Some of those apps are available through the community package center. If not then you can run a docker environment or a virtual machine on the DS and run whatever you want. It’s got a lot more horsepower than a single board computer, but I still recommend separation of duties and let the NAS be a NAS. Put your services on a server or separate virtual environment.

    This is my DS16xx+ and expansion bay






  • I do the same thing. I use all as my home page so I can see new and interesting stuff.

    I tend to block most 'ism and 'ism-adjacent communities, Foreign language communities, political communities, NSFW/Fetish, and a few highly specific tech/app/language communities that mostly only post version updates.

    Bots. lots of bots. If your community is 90% bot posts/repost aggregation and I see 5-10 posts consecutively in ‘all’ because your bot just vomited up it’s entire load in a 120 second span then I’ll probably block it.

  • People today tend to fixate on the things that are out of their control. Perhaps it’s because we have lost our coping mechanisms. Perhaps it’s because they never learned any. We live in the most technologically advanced point in time we have ever known. Few of us need to go out and till the earth to grow our own food. The majority of us don’t have to physically work as hard as previous generations. Adults and our children find their enjoyment and existential dread by watching tiny screens filled with useless entertainment. Maybe things are fine. We just make shitty choices about what to do with our time, and what we give our attention to.



  • Was the Bloomington Indiana council elected to preside over international affairs? Do they presume they have any authority to negotiate with foreign nations, or to give ultimatums on behalf of the federal government? Was this a completely symbolic action that was an utter waste of time which could have been better spent working for the people who elected them?

    I hope the mayor reminds them of the scope of their civic role and scolds them for wasting tax payer money.

    And stop letting potentially anonymous people (trolls) speak over zoom. Who didn’t see that result coming a from a mile away. If anyone from Bloomington wants to be heard they can make their way to the city council meeting to stand up front and speak in person.
