Well-played!

I do. May I enter your domicile and show you?

I have photophobia, which is not a fear of light (that’s heliophobia) but a high sensitivity to light. I have to wear sunglasses essentially sunup to sundown. I keep my office lights off. My display is set to the lowest brightness and contrast settings I can get away with.

I have Transitions lenses and even those aren’t strong enough sunglasses to cope with the brightness. Goodr sunglasses work really well for me as does my $600 prescription sunners. But mostly I try to avoid sunny days and live for the November through March days when the sun sets at 4 PM so I can go outside and enjoy myself.

OMG really? How COULD you…

Neglect to offer your valuable opinion. Hey, you’re a human and have valuable things to say. Haters gon hate. Fuck 'em.

The hero we need

Small instance owner here. All are welcome. We have one really busy community here, and a few others that are just getting going that you might find interesting. You like World of Warships? The Last of Us? St. Louis Battlehawks? Abandoned Buildings?

You’ll notice some of these communities are a ghost town. Images are broken and there’s a rat eating pizza. So step up. Avoid the large, overwhelmed, weirdly-political instances and give us little guys a chance.

I’ll begin by introducing myself. Hi! I am oleorun, named after the recently deceased Bob Uecker’s Baseball Hall of Fame speech. My instance, https://real.lemmy.fan/, is known for the !weirdnews@real.lemmy.fan community, but we have more to offer. !aviation@real.lemmy.fan , a college radio station, !wsup@real.lemmy.fan , and more communities waiting to be joined, and built, and best of all there’s no ads, no donation requests, just pure love of a federated instance that thrives on niceness.

I’d be real happy for you to join us.

Let’s back up just a moment - is there an issue you’re trying to diagnose, like bad lag, packet drops, excess ping, etc.?

If not, then don’t worry about the speeds too much unless you feel like you’re being overcharged.

If this runs on Oracle we’re all gonna be just fine. It’s one of the slowest, clunkiest products ever made.

It’ll be unavailable on Sundays.

I’m an instance owner and mod. I’ll describe what we see.

Like anyone else, I can check a post or comment and see the upvote and downvote counts. If I click on a specific menu item by a post or comment I can also see who voted which way.

I check it often and to date have only banned two users, out of thousands, who were consistently downvoting posts. These bot accounts were literally voting within seconds of the post going federated.

It’s a useful feature on my end and I think others should be able to see it.

Backblaze is a great backup solution. They publish drive stats and even show you the hardware they use.

Did your computer lose its bios settings lately? Check to see if it’s set to ahci and not raid if using a single, non-raid disk.

You can try some of the suggestions at https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-newbie-8/how-can-we-fix-this-no-irq-handler-for-vector-4175692269/, too.

Good luck

FYI: There’s currently an open issue with crossposting on instances using the 0.19.4 lemmy ui.

In a nutshell, the post submission page reloads after it retrieves the community to crosspost to, so everything but the selected community is wiped out.

It’s a bug in 0.19.4. I opened a GitHub issue for this in the lemmy-ui repo.

Try using 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 as the external DNS in your router for testing. Does it work then?

Also, you may have DNS cached somewhere. You can flush your Windows DNS cache by typing ipconfig /flushdns in a command prompt.

I wonder if you can get the frunk to critical velocity at the touch of a fly by constantly pumping it up like a pump action gun.

OHMy

From what I researched, the average lifespan of HDs and SSDs is no more than 10 years.

Is this running or not running though? I think a bunch of flash chips, properly stored, would last quite a while
