After getting burnt on the unRAID license change and the restriction on security updates, I figured there had to be a simple os that I can essentially set, forget, and easily update when I need, which also uses SnapRAID. I might just try this out.
Okay yeah that’s very true the proctoring systems suck entire ass.

Technology@lemmy.world•How France Adopts An Open Source-Based Education Strategy – Free of Big TechEnglish
7·2 years agoI do love open source, but hearing “Moodle” aged me like a decade lmao. Also nextcloud for everything? I guess having every tool you need centralized makes sense but I do wonder how well it scales across tens of thousands of people.
I really don’t get the Chromebook complaint. It just needs to browse the internet, and a Chromebook is damn solid at that at a super reasonable price and are rugged as hell. Yeah I wish schools didn’t hook into the g suite but like what, you want em on a windows machine to do the same things as on chrome os?
This and grapheneos were the two big reasons I got a pixel 8 after I broke my 5 on a small drop. The third was I got it for basically perfect condition for $350 on ebay which is so baller.

Here’s to hoping a solid sbc with gpio pins and solid software support shows up as a competitor to keep them in check?

4·2 years agoI know it’s been years since they changed this but I’m still upset. But it doesn’t change much cause I also just look up everything before I watch it since there’s no way in hell I trust companies not to filter reviews lol.

Programming@programming.dev•What is your job interview ritual?English
12·2 years agoHAHA I wonder how many people do this. Does sound kind of useful.
Absolutely. My friends and I just flew with Ryanair from Rome to Barcelona, and besides almost losing my mobile boarding pass because I almost lost my phone, it was completely fine. I’ve heard a lot of things about them strictly enforcing luggage sizes, so I just made sure I only bought the tickets through the official website while ignoring the upselling dark patterns and got bags I knew would absolutely fit the stricter luggage requirements.
Given the alternatives were either Wizz, Lufthansa, or Easyjet for a direct flight, I think I made the right decision.

Fediverse@lemmy.world•Mastodon is Rewinding the Clock on Social Media — in a Good WayEnglish
11·2 years agoThat’s the main reason why I’m half and half on mastodon (besides the terrible user search and onboarding). I believe the way hashtags are implemented in microblogging services is so inorganic, and I prefer having a little help finding cool posts and people through some kinda filter. Bluesky has been a better experience in those aspects for me so far.
Don’t forget Bluetooth has absolutely shit audio quality while using the microphone with how it handles call audio (although I’m praying BLE audio fixes this). Also true wireless earbuds can’t compare at all to wired earbuds microphones in the slightest.
I’m 21 and a decent amount of my friends assume I’m already in the group chats where plans are made, and when they remember I’m not, push me to get an iPhone instead of switching to a platform where I can be included. It’s shitty, but everyone else gets the info so it’s okay.
Even my 36-year-old cousin said she wouldn’t date anyone who didn’t have an iPhone.
At this point, I’m happy Instagram has come up as a platform everyone usually has an account on (even if it fucking sucks) just so that I am accessible for friends to easily add me to groups.



Super cool! Love the work you’ve put in and the extension integration is sick. Have you considered adding an archive option to post a link to the internet archive? I’d rather save space on my drives and I want to preserve the websites I use for everyone.
