Swiss copyright law: what can and can’t I download?
In some European countries, the authorities are taking rigorous action against film and music piracy. Even downloading a single file can lead to fines, criminal proceedings and warnings. In Switzerland, the legal situation is somewhat different. Here, you can download or stream certain content from the internet without paying for it under certain circumstances.

Nano, Pico and Micro? is this editor trying to !compensate for something?



Are you sure? All I’ve heard from multiple people is that bars was terrible at answering most questions compared to chatgpt. Maybe it was improved recently?


Because porn itself doesn’t exist, it’s a by-product of biomechanics.

It’s like asking a bot to draw speed, but all references to aircrafts and racecars have been removed.


It’s pretty obvious: it’s Asimov’s third law of robotics!

You kids don’t learn this stuff in school anymore!?

That phobia is exactly why I’m still using that piece of crap like PayPal.


The only true hacker movie is the one with Angelina Jolie!




I don’t want to argue about that, I personally avoid Docker if I can, but can’t deny it’s a great tool and very powerful for the right use cases.

What I wonder is: to you, in your opinion, those commands are really easier than “apt install transmission”?


That’s a great suggestion! I’ll try this one, thank you!


Problem with that it’s that it has Qt as dependency, therefore it’s a bit of a hassle to run in a headless machine.

But it’s still a very solid option.


Being a sports car enthusiast does not automatically mean I hate Lamborghini because I own a Ferrari.

You are totally right, what I mean is you don’t have to use Linux to be a power user, but despise it it’s not a power user attitude.


if the community we’re in puts rtorrent in C tier because it’s “UNIX only” then you and I have a different meaning of “power users”.


Yes but running a web interface on top of rtorrent is not as easy as transmision.


I switched from rtorrent to Transmission. It’s the only one with a ready-to-use web server so I can add and monitor my torrents remotely.

I would never run a torrent program on my main computer. Not that there’s (more) risks, it just feels wrong to me.


Yes, ZFS is commonly known for heavy disk I/O and also huge RAM usage, the rule used to be “1GB of RAM for every TB of disk” but that’s not compulsory.

Meanwhile, about BTRFS, keep in mind that Synology uses a mixed recipe because the RAID code of BTRFS is still green and it’s not considered production ready. Here’s an interesting read about how Synology filled the gaps: https://daltondur.st/syno_btrfs_1/


Oh that’s great to hear. Thank you for sharing.


The most common software choices are TrueNAS and UNRAID.

Depending on your use-case, one is better than the other:

TrueNAS uses ZFS, which is great if you want to be absolutely sure the unreplaceable data on your disks is 100% safe, like your personal photos. UNRAID has a more flexible expansion and more power efficient, but doesn’t prevent any bit flip, which is not really an issue if you only store multimedia for streaming.

If you prefer a hardware solution ready to use, Synology and QNAP are great choices so long you remember to use ZFS (QNAP) or BTRFS (Synology) as filesystem.


Oh… oh! Now I get it! That’s actually a great joke! 🤣


You’re confused by the mega drive / genesis version. The super Nintendo version was censored and didn’t have any blood.



I remember playing mortal Kombat 1 on the super Nintendo, how the fucking fuck did they put denuvo on a 4 mb cartridge?!


Was that minitel? I remember it being pretty popular in France.






Likewise, that’s why segregating stuff in three panels is bullshit.


I honestly have no idea what’s going to happen. Most probable outcome is I’ll run two different browsers based on what works for me. I stopped acting “ethical” about computing a long time ago, with some small exceptions. I’m not here on Lemmy because ethics, but because I’m fucking pissed at Reddit.


What a bunch of bullshit.

I self-host my stuff because it’s cheaper, I run Gentoo since the last 15 years and use Chrome because it’s just better and friendly. I also have a Xperia android phone and really, really don’t like MKBHD.


Excalibur remix

Wow that’s exactly the one!

Fancy most of the YT videos are from 11 years ago, lol.


I remember a final fantasy AMV back in 1996 with a remix of O Fortuna that was absolutely amazing (for that era), never been able to find that video and that song again!


Jellyfin needs apps I can install on my parent’s TV, that’s the only thing that keeps me on Plex.


Usenet was a hierarchical structure for what became the forums. You had a main tree and then separated branches for every argument, for example alt.sports then alt.sports.martialarts then alt.sports.martialarts.karate

Usenet was text only, very fast with old modems compared to web pages.

All the files (and piracy stuff) were relegated to alt.binaries


I was a Reddit sync user. Are you telling me there’s going to be the same app for Lemmy!? And I thought I would spend less time scrolling my phone! 🤣


IRC was basically pre-everything. Before ICQ and MSN and WhatsApp and surely before telegram.

Probably only Usenet was older, if we’re talking about social networking software.


I’m impressed how good is wefwef.

I’ve installed jerboa but I’m now considering switching again.
