She thought that the group of trans people that run 196 was somehow enabling transphobia and other horrid things when we constantly removed it.
And when we removed it, she said it was better for communication if kept things up to show the idiots.
And then when I kept it up, she got mad at me for not instantly banning and removing them.
Like everything 196 does was inherently a master plan where we messed with all users just for her.
She’s banned because she constantly went “I can’t wait to leave this place” and never did. So I left the ban note along the lines of “If you want to leave, you can. You’re not, you’re harassing users and defending tankies, so take this time to breath some air.”
It only really impacted me and a few others on Blahaj/196. She “swore off” the rest of Lemmy (still has it, still uses it) and said that being on Hexbear was better for her than other spaces online, and anyone disagreeing, even other trans women, were all wrong.
I personally use AirVPN. I detest the software client. It’s open source at least, but it feels like it was made for Windows XP and just ported forward.
That said, it supports Wireguard, so making my rpi log into the VPN anytime it goes offline is simple. Same for my laptop and phone.
Decent rates, good ways of dealing with per-device things, easy to lend the account to people who need a VPN, and often has sales.
Shout out to that one user named Good Girl who swore that being on Hexbear and Lemmygrad meant she got better treatment than the rest of lemmy.
I hope she gets over her self-hatred and loves herself as much as outside of those spaces.
I have tried a seedbox before, but the bottleneck is the last mile of my home internet. I just have a Raspberry Pi 3B+ hooked onto my router via ethernet. I just log onto qBittorrent and tell it to go as I sleep, and turn it off when I wake up. The downloading is done already onto a spare laptop drive I have, and then I watch it via Jellyfin or sneakernet it over to a friend.
I won’t say a seedbox is useless, I think it’s great, but due to how my living works, it’s not great. I’ve waited several minutes for a few PNGs to download, game updates often take hours. Not even counting how the actual fucking wind slows down my internet, due to the copper wiring being on poles like electricity. And I live in a place with so many windmills due to the natural features of the land creating daily wind storms from 4 PM until 7 AM.
I really do appropriate the advice however!
My internet isnt fast enough, My average download speed for the entire place is maybe 18 MB/s, and 0.5 MB/s upload.
Torrenting helps solve the problem as I can just tell it to download in chunks and then turn it off when I need more leg room on my copper wire internet from 2003 that AT&T doesn’t change.
I have some of the slowest speeds where 4G Data is a massive upgrade, so when I need to offload some jpgs to discord or something, its faster if I just send them to my phone and upload that way.
That’s it mainly. Port forwarding improves my torrenting enough to where I get better reliability.
Wonderful software, easy payment, great rates, but lack of port forwarding is a major fallback. I understand it was due to a very minor chunk of bad actors, but that minor chunk was hosting CSAM and other horrible internet-accessible things, and no way to track what traffic is where, means they had to remove the feature for the 98% of good faith users.
But I almost refuse to use AirVPN’s software. It’s so… weird. I’m thankful they support wireguard with zero issues, so I can just use the default network manager and apps for Linux/Android, but that client interface is so backwards compared to Mullvad and iVPN.
Still miss port forwarding.
That is genuinely amazing, losing 60 ships to a country without an actually big navy. Invading Ukraine to have warm waters for your navy, and you still lose.
This is Russia’s “don’t invade Russia in winter”. Don’t launch a naval assault on Ukraine, apparently.
It doesn’t help Adobe has software patents for their products, so anyone who makes a similar program has to either live in a country that doesn’t recognize the “right” to claim you invented math, or be risk being sued.
Thank fuck. I hope they stay in power.
Genuinely feels great to be hopeful about some parts of technology/software like this. I eagerly look forward to an update from KDE and sometimes GNOME.
Compare that to Google, Microsoft, any other public big tech, I start to just question why I’m not living in the forest as a new member of a Bigfoot extended family.
Syncthing is a god sent tool. Maybe I should use it for that if I can on my Xbox and Switch. I know I can for steam screenshots.
It took Nintendo years to enable Bluetooth on the switch. The same tech the pro controller and joycons use. Years. Modders had it nearly day one of opening the console.
How do I get a screenshot to my phone?
PlayStation and Xbox:
I know a decent amount of friends who use(d) Twitter to share moments and screenshots of after-game reports and random “aint this wild?” Moments.
And Splatoon on Switch got a big bonus from the memes the sharing enabled due to user generated content.
I love this recurring post. Please keep it up.
Switch and Xbox here: Xbox can do clips and screenshots, and upload to social media with one button.
It can also send all the clips and photos to an external storage device, which is what I do so it’s easy to sync clips for making edits of them for videos and jokes.
Nintendo feels so bizarre in how they handle the screenshots. “Here’s a dedicated screenshot button! Good luck sending this to anyone not on Facebook or Twitter!”
When there’s third party apps and programs to make the job of Nintendo and it’s fans easier, they fucked up.
This is the America that “let’s freedom ring”. A clusterfuck of metal boxes.
