FYI for anyone on Aussie broadband - it looks like if you were on the lower plans you didn’t automatically get upgraded, you need to manually change your plan - the 100 plans no longer exist, and the 500/50 plan is cheaper than the plan you’re currently on.
I told my brother to check and he sent me this:
So the ISPs are ultimately responsible for every illegal thing that happens on the internet?
Looks like I got upgraded for free - was on 1000/40 and am now getting over 80 upload:
I’d hope that’s usually enough to stream 4K videos haha
Not a good analogy.
The Mac is more efficient while having significantly more power, and more use cases.
Your setup is fine, it does what you want. That doesn’t mean this isn’t better. Yes it’s more expensive, but that’s because it’s much better hardware. Not everyone wants a Corolla, some want a Lamborghini.
yes, we all want some censorship.
Speak for yourself.
defederation is censorship.
instance bans are censorship.
community bans are censorship.\
And I disagree with them.
is your position that none of those should be allowed?
My position is that it should all be up to the user. Let me block instances and communities if I don't want to see them. Let me choose what content I want to see. I don't need some mods deciding what is and isn't acceptable based on their ideologies and beliefs, because as we all know and see every day, most abuse that power almost all the time.
if so, thats a wild position to take, but you should say it with your full chest at least.
It's not wild at all, and I have never tried to hide it. I've said it openly many, many times on Lemmy. I think all censorship is bad. Only weak minded people want or need censorship.
Nice attempted "gotcha" though.
I wouldn’t use MacOS as the virtualization platform
Mac's can run docker you know?
Mine will last way longer than yours, it's way more powerful than yours so can do a multitude of things that yours couldnt ever dream of doing, I don't need a DAS either - I could just have easily kept using my NAS for the storage without issue, and while you can upgrade your hardware that costs more money and it still won't be as good as mine (and with mine having multiple high speed thunderbolt ports, I can very easily just add dozens of TB's of ultra fast storage that essentially acts as if it's on-board). I don't think you understand just how much better the Mac Mini hardware is than yours lol.
My bill is the exact same as before I deployed it.
Oh wow you got a magical setup that uses no power? Can you let some scientists come check it out? My power bill reduced with my new setup.
The Mac Mini M4 is objectively better than your server. Objectively, not subjectively.
lol ah the classic crybaby wannabe-fascist "paradox of tolerance" garbage. Just admit it, you can't handle people who have different beliefs and opinions to your own because you can't defend your own with any intelligence.
Classic leftist.
fucking crazy puritan.
Where did this come from? lol What a bizarre thing to say over this.m, especially when you’re the one crying over people saying mean things behind your back lol.
and guess what: the developers of lemmy can change it if they want to.
No shit sherlock.
but meanwhile here you are, insulting people for having differing opinions
Where am I doing that?
If a stalker wants to harass you, preventing them from replying to you will only mean they’re going to keep making more accounts to get around it, then it’s just a constant game of whack-a-mole that you will not win.
If they keep replying to all your comments and get zero reply from you, ever, but can’t see that you blocked them, they’ll eventually get tired of it because they need the response - that’s why they are doing it.
If you can’t see their replies to your posts then who cares? Who cares if other people can see them and reply to them - you can’t, so why does it matter? You do not get to decide that other people are censored. If you want that ability, start your own instance and start your own communities so you can go all fascist dictator on them there.
Sure, but none as easy as doing it the right way - and none that are guaranteed to not get your backblaze account banned.
I don’t believe HFC can do the 2000 speeds, unless something has changed?
