Chances are this is a kid or NEET and all his friend wants is a super simple website with basic info for his local business. Dad is either doing him a favor, or giving him some pocket change so he’ll stop bothering him for money for a month. This is what happens when you don’t teach your children to be adults, and give them everything instead. Seen it too many times.

Based on this interaction alone and his dad deciding the price for him, I’m going to make the wildly assumptious assumption this is a 20s/30s(/40s?) unemploymed guy living at his dad’s house rent free.

If my assumptions are incorrect, sorry mate, you did not win the dad lottery.

Yeah but he’s just a temporarily inconvenienced billionaire, the rest of these welfare queens are out here collecting rent and sitting around all day. They don’t need the money like he does. As soon as he gets a job, he’ll hustle that first billion in no time.

His YouTube shorts (500/day goal) is videos of Elon musk saying things, with the background music alternating between the sigma male tune and the movie clip tune.

Did you see how ELON MUSK OWNED💯 DON LEMON by getting flustered at the question of “half your advertisers have left the platform, if X fails, isn’t that on you?” so he told Don he should choose his words carefully because the interview clock only had 5 minutes left? And then Don was OWNED because he rephrased the question?

LMAO. SUCK IT CNN. OWNED!

So programming is gonna go from a “search, understand basics, copy/paste, make changes” industry to a “I breathe compiler optimization, pay me money” industry?

Can’t say I’m that upset, it had to happen eventually. But this will only kick the brainpower down the road for the copy/pasters because they’ll have a lot more time to dig in and specialize.

Lemmy is reddit 3.0. Early on, Reddit was basically only a website for tech nerds and misfits; atheism and jailbait were some of the most visited subreddits, idpol and divpol weren’t a make-or-break-your-family issue back then but there were still a ton of terminally online furries (yes if you’re a furry you’re weird, but weird is fine, let that freak flag fly.) I’m including myself in the group of outcasts and misfits, and my freak flag flies in weird ways too. I’ve been on Reddit since the default UI was , although it hadn’t changed much over the years before the redesign. Notice the quality of submissions though - it was a place for the intellectually curious.

But you have a large subset of users who use pedantry and grammar nazi`ism as a way to feel powerful when they’re powerless. It’s like picking on those lower than you, when you’re in the bottom of the pecking order.

Those people saw reddit go from their bastion of freedom to the corporate ad-haven it is today and all came here. You also have a lot of younger people with the time to kill and are just trying something new.

I think it’s being framed wrongly for the narrative by the guy posting the screenshot.

A friend sent me MRI brain scan results

Without more context I have to assume guy was still convinced of his brain tumor, knew a friend who knew and talked about Claude, had said friend run results through Claude and told guy who’s brain was scanned that Claude gave a positive result, and friend went to multiple doctors for a second, third, fourth opinion.

In America we have to advocate hard when there is an ongoing, still unsolved issue, and that includes using all tools at your disposal.

I’m quite positive going to Russia would be dangerous for me regardless of my ethnicity or background 😄. They really do have some neat brutalist art and architecture, but I can see that from the safety of my couch with Bald & Bankrupt.

I’m a Russian spy, and the FBI agent is pulling out their identification when questioning me.

Fully agree. I’m taking a trip to Russia soon. It’s my families motherland, such a beautiful country with a rich history. People keep calling me a spy, and it’s hurtful, especially when they pull out their identification. – Jokes aside I really do agree. Internet culture has come up with some of the greatest, and dumbest, collectivist thoughts and this meme is a great example of the latter.

Edit: Keep up friends. “Motherland” “Russian” “Spy” “Identification” “Jokes aside”

Is docker virtualized or otherwise emulating something? It’s just a way to package things, like an installer? Then it’s bare metal.

I had to look this up too, I thought docker containers were virtualized.

That would make sense if the cause is some looping from hanging DNS lookups. Someone should (and likely has) notified the devs about this.

In theory, if I were to use an online solution, bad actors wouldn’t be able to pull my vault from memory.

It’s the same issue once you login to your vault via browser extension. They have to download your vault locally on login to decrypt it when you enter your password anyway*. Even if they don’t store your vault password in memory, they either store the entire vault (unlikely for size reasons) or a more temporary key to access the vault. Local compromise is full compromise already.

*If they don’t, then they either made a giant technological leap, or they’re storing your passwords on a simple database on their servers and that’s not what you want from a password manager.

Yup, I have been using KeePassXC locally since (one of) the first big LastPass breaches. I thought “password manager company… they know encryption” and then kept some of the most important things stored in my vault including notes of Bitcoin seedphrases etc. Thought "even if they get hacked, they wouldn’t let anyone exfil the huge amount of data from the USER VAULT SERVER… thought “my passphrase is like 25-30 chars long, nobody will crack that”…

5 years after my last login and I find out the breach happened, user vaults were exfil’d, the encryption was absolute shit, and the notes weren’t even encrypted.

I don’t trust cloud companies to keep promises or know what they’re doing today. and anything self-hosted isnt Internet accessable unless it’s on dedicated hardware subnetted off and wouldn’t matter if it got hacked.

What (or who?) could create a corporate culture where racists would feel empowered to say anything they want without fear of repercussion?

Hmmm, maybe someone that built his fortune on Apartheid money?

Could it be…? 🤔

When you go changing the default text in your content-management system because you think you have better words than the ones who built the system.

Curious if their proxy host was cloudflare or DDoS-Guard (Russian) or even a lesser known service.
