  • That sounds like a you problem, not an our problem! 😎

    What you could do to really piss your neighbour off is to help everyone else get bigger boats so that your neighbour gets so pissed off and sells the boat because they can’t afford a bigger boat.

    If the neighbour buys a bigger boat, just keep upgrading everyone else’s boat until the neighbour runs out of money and sells it.

    Now where do I find the post where I can suggest someone buys me a M4 Mac mini so I can run AI locally and try and setup a business so I can get rich and join the boat club before I miss out on the fun? 🤔

    There’s so many jobs that people don’t enjoy but are necessary.

    I take it you asked all 7 (or whatever) billion then?

    Nobody enjoys working in the middle of an australian desert at 40°C in a lithium mine.

    Who says they’d need to? You talk like someone would need to do that because right now capitalism demands more production!

    Nobody enjoys collecting your stinking trash. Nobody enjoys sitting in a store for 8 hours a day, scanning groceries.

    Again, if we didn’t produce so much garbage, products with layer upon layer of plastic, we’d make glass and clay pots and grow, make and reuse locally making less garbage all the way but then in the 90s you had to collect bin bags off the street, now its all wheelie bins, if my health allowed I would happily go round collecting rubbish.

    Also I’ve had issues with drains in the past and when I asked them about the job, they actually enjoyed the challenge. So I think you’re confusing people who do a job because too much demand means people doing jobs for the money rather than less demand would actually mean people wouldn’t even need a set job. Feel like drains on Monday, go for it. Had enough and feel like helping someone tin food on Tuesday, go for it.

    Look at Animals, how many animals work 2 jobs just to survive?

    Nobody enjoys working in a warehouse for 8 hours.

    Another thing thats only a thing because capitalism demands we keep producing more and more shit. That washing machine that used to last 10 years now breaks after the warranty because some riches want more money and power!

    It amazes me how blinded people are to a capitalist free world. Look at the waste now, the plastic pollution and then look carefully at the next package you buy and ask “does this really need ‘this’ much packaging? Do i care if this new spade I bought with all its shiny cardboard and plastic protection, arrived with a scratch? But even if the TV was scratched, does it really matter so long as it worked as intended?

    But then I have no kids of my own and every year I feel better not having brought kids into this mess because unless you’re born into money now there is very little to offer kids in the near future right. 😕

    This is how you tell rich people have some serious mental health issue.

    Decent people would rather a world where people worked because they enjoy that type of work rather than being forced to do it because they need money to live.

    If you removed money, imagine where we’d all be as a society without the toxicity of money, wars and hate! :(





  • You can now add elements on tablet by long-pressing on an empty space

    I’m guessing unless you’re on an iPad?

    I’ll try later on the dell 7210 but sadly Apple has screwed up so many things with touch so i’m not surprised when stuff no longer “just works” on Apple!😞🤦‍♂️

    Thanks for the quick changes though. I did seem to get a ‘dot’ to show up by tapping and holding but haven’t managed to reproduce how I actually did it and it wouldn’t move when dragging things around so 🤷‍♂️ lol







  • I would be curious to know how e-commerce would change though as without ads people would likely gravitate to the big box stores

    Do they need to advertise? At the moment we still have search engines, although not for long, but remove the marketing crap and companies can go back to fighting over offering the best prices/services.

    I rarely see ads and yet I can still manage to buy the products I want, I just don’t buy much branded crap because it’s overpriced and has been enshitified by greed. People just need to stop buying into marketing bs and go back to buying what you need!

    Sadly everything is designed to manipulate the gullible so I doubt there’ll be any meaningful change in my lifetime since it seems to be 60-70% of the population that falls under the gullible tag.


  • I mean, the rich are benefiting from all the ad spending which is all that matters! /s

    People really need to remember that you’re paying for the ads regardless of if you see them. The only people who lose out are those who show the ads and giving the amount of websites these days that are solely built around showing ads, I really have no sympathy for them.

    The bigger question no-one seems to ask is, how much cheaper would products be if they weren’t spending trillions on ads in the first place?


  • I have multiple PI’s waiting for a decent ‘non video’ PI kubernetes tutorial but its hard to find anything beyond setting up a cluster and running hello world or aren’t out of date and no longer work. I already have a 12 pi bitnami cluster but its a pain to manage.

    Something showing how to run things like JellyFin with network share for media would cover much of what is needed for Self Hosting.

    Bonus points for things like TalosOS would be cool but then it seems net booting TalosOS is difficult because you needed a specific serial thats only easily viewable in Omni right now so still needs SD cards/SSD/NVME hats so increases costs significantly.

    I’ve been trying to get a tutorial done myself but keep hitting issues with configs not working as expected. sigh
