Ah my mistake, you’re the developer! Stand by my comments but wish you luck. I was looking to see if anyone had set it up and what their opinions were. I have a stack at home and could stand one up, deciding on it still now. I prefer fedi everything, but there are celebrities/professionals that only use insta and stuck with it.

How is it?

Things like this have to be constantly maintained for that reason, look also at yt-dlp. For that, I’ll give it a month, see how they’re doing then before setting up a personal interest. Worried they’ll abandon it

I literally do mean pedestrians, and it literally does mean being able to take a sharp corner. The hood design is deadly to pedestrians, and you’re so high up that you have massive blindspots. It is a machine that can and regularly does cause front-overs, meaning running pedestrians and children over. I absolutely hate how the most unsafe hood design is considered normal, and have and will continually lobby for them to be removed from the roads.

I do not care how safe someone feels inside. To everyone outside the car they are massive liabilities.

Learn up on them.

Edit: LITERALLY 2 POSTS AWAY FROM THIS ONE ON THE FEED. Happened yesterday.

Bicyclist swerved because sedan unsafely opened their door while parking, and large truck ran them over, killing them

They designed that vehicle without regard for safety. Then it was rated poor for pedestrian safety and people still bought it. They made the street safe for the people Ford and the buyer ignored.

Great point, I didn’t see them talk to any pedestrians or cyclists!

If he can’t make that turn he both bought too large if a vehicle and also is a shit driver.

Nah it’s okay, unless you want to for history and reference. Link

Ironically I had so much help in finding the info before it was removed that all I did was eyeroll at it’s removal. Will be looking forward to the update!

Bringing in both your threads, I agree. With only a handful of active communities, saying “this isn’t the right one” without pointing to an active community where it is a good one seems… destructive. Personally, if no hardware remains a rule, then it seems natural to then start a sister community which is hardware focused and Rule 3’s text then would recommend that community right in the rule itself. May not be such a bad idea now that I’m typing it.

As a mod myself on much smaller communities, that’s my view too. Even if there is something I personally dislike, it’s not my community, if it’s getting upvotes then obviously people are enjoying it. If I get reports I look into it, but it has to be a pretty blatent violation for me to step in. Why would I want to hurt engagement? There’s so few of us already here.

Oh my GOD that’s probably what happened to mine! I was discussing something on my last post and then suddenly the mod removed it because of “Rule 3”. Because we were talking about selfhosting. Which, all selfhosting is on our own hardware…, but I think my post leaned more hardware than the mod liked. Super annoying when you’re having a valid conversation, people are chiming in and helping, and then suddenly Removed: Arbitrary rule violation.

Thank you! Looking forward to hearing from you!

My only request/suggestion, is Rule 3. Rule 3 I think has been used way too often to justify removing posts seemingly arbitrarily. A blanket “No hardware” rule is restrictive when homelab and selfhosted are a venn diagram that are very close together. For example, you can’t talk about Unraid without also talking about what drive types you use. Or a post I’m thinking about posting, “What doorbell cameras do you prefer with HomeAssistant? and What NVR should I use?”. All selfhosted, all homelab, all interconnected… but I am afraid of posting it because of the iron fist.

Yeah I think this is a tool worth having for mods. Maybe going through deleted posys and seeing who are repeat offenders.

To me, that isn’t building a community, that’s extracting from one. It’s no better than AI scraping. You got your answer and then keep it for yourself.

Huh, til. In programming it’s simply a way of ensuring something happens exactly one time

I don’t get it

Stupid movies, think Will Farrell and movies like Anchorman and Step Brothers.

I thought I was top shit in high school and college, that I was so much smarter than the average person and that my tastes were above the general public. Turns out I was just a douche.

Now I know that humans are not binary, that you can like two things for two different reasons. I can enjoy something serious like The Brutalist or The Whale, and then I can also enjoy something silly like Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga (Seriously, you should go watch that, Rachel McAdams is amazing in it). It really simply depends on my mood and my emotions in the moment and what I want to watch.

I’ve also learned that the rating system is broken, because it pits movies that are polar opposites like that in direct competition, and there is no way to compare them. Apples and Oranges. But that’s a separate topic.

Being skeptical is fine, being accusatory with no proof is a jerk move.

Thank you! This is the part I was missing, and felt like I was blindly picking batteries. This feels much safer

I trust Batteries Plus, stupid question though, what do I search for? This is new to me, given that I have my APC model, how do I derive what I need from Batteries Plus?

While I’m all against polluting, that would make a fine artificial reef at the bottom of the lake.

If you haven’t been to Italy, there are quite a few cultural differences to be aware of. One of them is generally you don’t make demands, dinner is an experience that you are there to have and they want to give you their experience. So it’s at least worth calling out that it could be part of the experience they want you to have.
