I would rather walk for six months than spend 5 hours squished into modern aircraft.

Not only would I be far more comfortable, I would have life experiences other than dealing with people I would rather be as far away from as possible, and I would be in better shape, and would likely make friends along the way.

Literally just:

• paste url
• wait a moment
• copy archive.in url and put on Lemmy.

I work in computers, remotely. So 8.5 hours minimum every day. Then I have to use a phone to communicate, so an additional 2 hours or so on that… And then some tv or games to chill. Yeah 13 hours a day seems about right… Yuck.

Fun fact, as someone who suffers from FODMAP related IBS… Almost very “green” item in this list triggers FODMAP reactions, and about half of the red ones are on the safe to eat category.

TL;DR - damned if I do, damned if I dont.

Im… Getting there. For now I built my own cloud at home… But browsers themselves are becoming a problem.

You’re mixing the Signal Foundation up with the original creator of Signal who has stepped down and is no longer involved… And is off…

checks notes

Building fucking AI bots apparently? Thank goodness he’s not involved with Signal anymore.

What is this, the prequel to Chrysalids?

Canada is in this boat too.

This particular studio is responsible for some of their best titles.

In Canada, the only province that historically has a rate that high is Ontario, and that is because they use Nuclear power, which is more expensive to maintain, and also they have no protection laws for consumers. So residents of Ontario pay what the US companies are willing to pay for power.

The neighbouring province, Quebec, uses primarily Hydro Electric dams, and has protection laws that restrict pricing for hydro power for residents of Quebec to a reasonable margin above cost, regardless of what the US is willing to pay for the power.

When I lived in Ontario, the price was $24c/kwh, while Quebec was $8/kwh

Ontario has had new laws passed with the energy board and now it appears their price is down to $14c/kwh according to this site, but I’m willing to bet that is highly dependent on surge pricing. Getting straight answer on costs is difficult these days with all the tiered pricing.

Apparently Alberta is more expensive than Ontario now… Must be all that “freedom” they have… Did they privatise electric in addition to everything else there? I’m not familiar with how their grid is powered… Maybe its oil/coal based. Which would be unsurprising.

Was super interested right up until the AI recommendations bit.

Lol, lost the internet because they have less DCs?

Meanwhile most of America is still on dialup or early 2000s broadband speeds.

This is a fucking shallow definition of winning.

Lol, this post has everything, even Sherlock holmes fan fiction.

Oh, go to your DDG options and turn the AI slop off.

No pensions, just an RRSP, and these assholes who did away with pensions keep manipulating the market in their favour.

Took me 30 years to barely get into a house before interest rates skyrocketed, and now the ai crash will likely take that from me.

Ill be working till I die, and at this point Ill likely be dead before retirement from stress, war, or both.

And the fun all started when I graduated directly into the dotcom crash.

I have run Pihole on 2 physical Pi 4s (DietPi OS) with config sync for 3 years now. Core to the house. Very reliable.

Don’t use Google. DDG works with keyword searches and you get exactly what you expect.

For horribly inaccurate results that sound like they were written by a $5 SEO article writer.

Ill stick with key word search and skipping over all the SEO crap for.real results.

Oh sorry, just realized we are talking app servers.

Yeah, Google apps, and linux hosted apps. Havent had a company that ran windows or MS anything in 14 years.
