Because the lowest common denominator is much MUCH lower than you think it is.

This means it’s easy to indoctrinate and easy to maintain that for a massive number of people.

Scientific illiteracy is extremely high, and actual “6th grade reading comprehension” is the highest level of literacy for > 50% of a country like the U.S. and ~20% are low literacy or actually illiterate.

This means that half of everyone in the U.S. can read and understand what they read at or below a 6th grade level. This isn’t “reading big words”, it’s “tell us about what you read”, “what is the relationship between x & y” type questions.

This comment for example, up to this point only, would be difficult to understand & comprehend for > 50% of people in the U.S. (it demands an 11th grade reading comprehension). And may be misread, misunderstood, or not understood at all.

People are driven to religions to cults and alt conspiracy theories when they don’t understand how the world works around them. They latch onto extremely simple often misleading or incorrect ideas of how the world works because they can understand it and it “makes sense” within their sphere of ignorance (we all have one, this isn’t meant to be a disparaging term).

This means that the problem is that humans are just not smart enough to escape religion yet. It’s the simplest answer, and it appears to be correct.

Damn, that’s just cancerous

Yeah I had literally no idea what you were talking about until you mentioned the actual name in the comments.

NPM almost universally refers to node package manager in any developer or development adjacent conversation in my experience. Given that both the site, the command, the logo, and the binaries are “npm” makes that more appropriate.

Nginix proxy manager is far to niche to be referred to universally by acronym when it’s only ever used as an acronym when the context for it’s usage has already been defined (ie. In it’s documentation).

This becomes much more clear when you Google the acronym.

It is, but also it’s worrisome since it means support is harder, which means risk of abandonment is higher and community contributions lower. Which means “buying in” is riskier for the time investment.

Not really criticizing, 10/10 points on making something and then putting it out there, nothing wrong with that. Just being a user who’s seen too many projects become stale or abandoned, and have noticed that the trend has some correlation to the technology choices those projects made.

I’ve been looking a platform for personal blog, portfolio, and what not that’s kind of fun to play with without having to build the whole thing myself.

What’s your opinion of this project?

As of today I’m actually in a lucky position where I am now able to set up a secondary NAS at my brother in laws and use that as a backup server that I can back up to essentially in real time.

All it’ll cost me is the hardware and the electricity.

Yes.

I’m sure one can reasonably infer that I do not mean 30 meters.

Conveniently at highway speeds 30 minutes and 30 miles away are essentially equal.

I’ll try and use appropriate notation next time

I might be crazy but I have a 20TB WD Red Pro in a padded, water proof, locking, case that I take a full backup on and then drive it over to a family members 30m away once a month or so.

It’s a full encrypted backup of all my important stuff in a relatively different geographic location.

All of my VM data backs up hourly to my NAS as well. Which then gets backed up onto the large drive monthly.

Monthly granularity isn’t that good to be fair but it’s better than nothing. I should probably back up the more important rapidly changing stuff online daily.

The error posted in the app is from the website itself. It’s likely that the password manager is injecting something into the page which is causing errors.

There are many ways for this to go wrong, it has nothing to do with the web service itself.

We’re on Lemmy are they afraid of being censored because they are writing software catered for NSFW uses?

Other social media’s chilling effects are pretty deeply engrained unfortunately…

And there’s also the live sync extension which allows you to have live document syncs in real time via your own self-hosted CouchDB instance

PHP for sure can have a negative effect depending on how they are handling their data access through.

The application code itself running on PHP probably isn’t a problem but the influence that PHP may have over your data access patterns can be a source of significant performance problems.

That’s… not now digestion works. 🤦

Imagine the massive inconvenience of separating your plastics so that your recycling facility can actually recycle more plastic waste instead of if ending up in a landfill 🤦

Or unification/interoperability even

$1000-$1500…?

Most people are on high deductible plans, so it’s more like $3000-$5000

Honestly not even surprising anymore :(

My getting established visit with the doctor cost me $430 last month…

That’s just a visit to get started and nothing of significance was actually discussed.

In this case no not really.

The cookie you might be using is going to be storage that’s going to contain your preferences. Assuming they actually applied by the regulations they claim to then that cookie actually won’t be used to track you it will simply be used for the intended purpose of cookies in the first place.

Not that I agree with their approach but but they are essentially saying here is that since there is no way to save your privacy preferences they are not in compliance with the law by ensuring that you have set your privacy preferences. Which it’s kind of bullshit, dick move on their part.

Yeah, I use [email protected]

And EVERY DAMN PERSON corrects .co to .com

Unfortunately the .com.and .net are both used.

It’s not necessarily a moving target when entire blocks can be associated with Google.
