because it’s pretty hard to recommend anything you don’t use. Seeking advice on a distribution in geek forums, therefore, is a losing plan right from the start. It’s smarter to install whatever you want and then come to the forums with your problems.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you think that karma systems online invalidate people's way of thinking?
1·18 days agoTo be honest, even in real life, going into a vegan community and talking about the benefits of meat doesn’t seem like a very reasonable idea.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do we live to work rather than work to live?
2·1 month agoI still don’t understand what the cons are. Maybe there are some arguments? In my country, a hectare of fertile black soil costs $1,000. Is this an unbearable amount? I’m sure the world is full of such countries.
And yes, buildings can be built independently. If you buy absolutely everything, then you are not a farmer, but a farm owner. The same capitalsit that half of the comments are against. =)

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do we live to work rather than work to live?
1·1 month agoWhy is that? there are places in the world where a land costs almost nothing, and you can build a barn yourself. Like… a farmer from the past. =)
By the way, there are really a lot of holidays, but do you know what a harvest is? When the wheat ripens, you can’t tell it, “Wait, wait, my shift is over.” You collect it around the clock. And if we’re talking about the present past, then you assemble it with your hands, without automation.
UPD: And then, after standing with a sickle for 9 hours, you get to the house (which you also built yourself), take care of the livestock, have a hearty dinner, smoke a pipe to ease the pain in your whole body, lie down on the bed and instantly fall asleep from fatigue. Then you sleep without dreams, wake up and return to the field. My grandfather led this way of life until his death. I’m sure you wouldn’t like it very much. But in general, as already mentioned, he really did not use the money, except in rare cases. Usually.

8·1 month agoown only what is available to a farmer from the past (a piece of land and a couple of barns), desire only what is available to a farmer from the past (a hearty dinner and strong tobacco, not a new iPhone), and then you can live like a farmer from the past today.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Without video games, would more places currently be on fire?
1·2 months agoI don’t argue that she was criticized. I just say that the problem described in the post—protests about games and comparisons with other countries—is irrelevant. In addition, for some reason, the topic starter included “evil capitalists” in the post. Maybe I didn’t describe it very well because I’m using a translator. Personally, I see this literally as a problem of the golden billion. Maslow’s pyramid is just an example.
Let me explain in more detail. Surely everyone was told as a child what successful future awaits them. How everything will be wonderful. Boundless horizons. Hardly any parent wouldn’t want this for their child. But reality isn’t like that. It doesn’t guarantee not only earnings but even life. Harsh truth. Therefore, all these sufferings in the spirit of: “cursed capitalists are profiting from us, let’s protest more. If something happens, will we protest even more?” seem very funny to me.
Especially for the USA, because the post was clearly written by someone from there. Guys, capitalists in 1996, if I’m not mistaken, provided your country with a lot of jobs at chicken factories just by giving one country free chicken under monopoly conditions. But luck doesn’t always turn its face.
So as it was sung in one Russian song:
We galloped merrily on wooden horses, We marched in war against the foolish adult world. We led an army of songs and toys together, We were very brave children.
But one day, in every child’s heart, it suddenly became empty, The fairy‑tale thread was torn. We got there, and it turned out there was simply no one to defeat. There are no adults here except us.
Time ran out, the veil fell, and everything that had so drawn us, that has always been inside us.
UPD: That’s why I wrote that suicide is almost always the result of unrealistic expectations.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Without video games, would more places currently be on fire?
1·2 months agoAnd yes, stories like “oh no, I have a loan, and I can’t pay it off, and nobody will hire me, even though all I know how to do is study, and I have a piece of paper” are very funny to me. If you want to make money, you will. By whatever means necessary. Just accept that the world isn’t as you dreamed.
UPD: and just admit yourself bankrupt. You won’t get a loan anymore, but on the other hand, if you can’t pay it back, that’s not so bad either.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Without video games, would more places currently be on fire?
1·2 months agoHow many people in your family have committed suicide? My cousin committed suicide in my family. I know exactly what I’m talking about. When you have nothing to eat, you don’t think about how bad it is that there are few cinemas around. You look for food. For a long time. For hours. You just don’t have time for anything else. This is real experience, not beautiful stories from social networks.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What if we forced every billionaires to give away $1 billion each year in $1 million dollar increments to 1,000 random families?
1·2 months agoMost likely this will just drive up inflation

1·2 months agoPeople kill themselves for various reasons. Mostly because of a mismatch between expectations and reality.
No Jesus will help you survive in the snow town at -30 degrees Celsius. These stories are good in the south, but not in the north.

4·2 months agoUprising because of lack of games? Seriously? Most people won’t overthrow the power of capitalists because no one has provided a working theory without capitalists. And changing some for others just doesn’t make sense. And this is not about games at all. Moreover, you are not even close to the bottom of Maslow’s pyramid. In my 18 years I couldn’t have something to eat. That is bottom, not live with parents.
As if a person swinging a sledgehammer at work for 10 hours and then going into their favorite shooter for an hour will immediately go to protests if they don’t have a shooter. Of course not.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Considerations when buying an LSI HBA?English
1·2 months agoIf you’re installing an HBA at home, it’s better to immediately install something like a Noctua NF-A4x10 on it. You should also immediately check the type of hardware initialization. If the system boots into EFI and the HBA is old and only supports BIOS, there may be problems. Otherwise, everything works perfectly with almost every device.
I’ve been running all my servers and my work computer on Arch since around 2018, ever since Ubuntu started shoving snaps everywhere. Even the instance I’m writing this from is running Arch. Overall, everything is great. The instance has 98-99% uptime. No issues with the work PC either.
UPD: While rereading the post, I remembered that rabbitmq was recently broken in the repositories. But everything was solved with a two-minute rollback and blocking of the version in pacman.
UPD2: I build packages with my hands periodically. It’s not like I haven’t done the same thing on Ubuntu or CentOS. On Arch make PKGBUILD really more easy then spec file for CentOS or deb structure for ubuntu. On Ubuntu this is really awful.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Selfhosting as a Linux newbie - Ubuntu Server LTS or Debian 13?English
1·3 months agoSNAP in the recommended packages of the ubuntu-server metapackage. Ubuntu installs all recommended packages by default. So SNAP is in the server installation, moreover, it can’t even be simply removed without completely blocking in apt policy.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Selfhosting as a Linux newbie - Ubuntu Server LTS or Debian 13?English
1·3 months agoIf you’re planning to use old hardware for hosting, don’t use Ubuntu. SNAP will kill performance.
So your choice is Debian.
P.S. VPS is already a Virtual Private Server and you can’t install ProxMox or any virtualization on it. If you want experiments, look into containers.

What’s the value of this advice? You can google the same thing in about 2 minutes. People usually expect real-world experience.
