Why couldn’t they just leave it be? People can block anyone that they don’t want to see posts from. Is it really that important to have an army of people banning anyone who they disagree with?

What else do the admin team do other than ban people and remove posts and comments?

Apparently. What was March?

No I’m Nancy Pelosi.

Thankfully not here in Australia.

That a business has to comply with local laws to operate in a country? You need a source for that?

That they challenge them in court whenever they can? Sure:

For what? That you need to follow the law?

You call me the concern troll when you’re in here literally being “concerned” that they’re really censoring just whatever musk wants them to, with zero evidence to support it. You’re the one trolling.

So you do have evidence? Where is it?

Yes they comply with the laws of the countries that they operate in. That’s part of doing business in a country. They challenge any government requested censorship in court whenever they can. No one else challenges them.

Without your body evolving to require it? It would be worse.

Insider trading, take bribes disguised as lobbying, take bribes in the form of promised executive level jobs after they leave congress. That seems to be about it.

And they’d only be like $5k each. HDD prices have gone ridiculous. I’d just like 20TB drives to be reasonably priced. 10TB drives are twice the price they were 5 years ago.

I mean, yeah, we do. I’ve been banned from multiple communities I’ve never even participated in because some admin from an instance didn’t like what I said on another instance lol. I’ve been banned for “transphobia” for saying that physically men are on average stronger/faster/bigger than women lol. Just yesterday I got 3 messages from deranged left wing losers on here telling me to kill myself, people who I have no idea who they are or if they’ve ever even responded to my comments lol.

You pointing out my mod log is exactly the point I’m making. The reasons given for the comment removals and bans don’t line up, they’re clearly just bans because I’m not circle jerking the echo chambers opinions.

Alcohol is a really strong painkiller, essentially.

In the mod logs, being permanently banned with zero warnings, for not playing along with the echo chamber, usually under the ban reason of “trolling” as no one could possibly have a different opinion to the echo chamber, so they must be trolling.

Without the weights or promotion criterion.

Oh so you’ve seen the weights and promotion criterion and know what musk is changing and when? Cause if you don’t, you’re just spreading conspiracy theories.

Thanks for the rule breaking insult though.

Software developer with 20+ years of experience here, but go on, tell me all about how it’s hard :)

I am currently moving from a Synology DS920+ to using my Mac Mini M4 + DAS with hardware RAID. The Synology is great, but I want to get away from the proprietary RAID that it’s using. I was running Plex on it, as well as all my *Arr’s etc via docker, but Plex and all of these services on the Mac Mini run like greased lightning compared to the Synology. Sonarr/Radarr load instantly versus taking a minute to load the library on the Synology.

I think doing it this way rather than an all in one device is easier to maintain and upgrade. Run all the services in docker so you can make them on any device that you might upgrade/change to, and just have a big RAID array of drives. Plus this way I can use Backblaze personal and backup the entire 50TB for like $99 a year :|

Use both.

I use both, and I’ve found Usenet to be significantly better for old content. Not even close.

The english language is a strange one. Not everything makes total sense. This is just one of those times.

If you really want to question your knowledge of the english language, play scrabble against someone who is very good at it and you’ll be constantly checking the dictionary saying “there’s no way that’s a real word” haha
