Very very little. It’s a billion tiny little bits of text, and if you have image caching enabled, then all those thumbnails.

My personal instance doesn’t cache images since I’m the only one using it (which means a cached image does nobody any good), and i use somewhere less than 20gb a month, though I don’t have entirely specific numbers, just before-lemmy and after-lemmy aggregates.

Taking a 10% haircutcut?

They must really really want that shit dumped the fuck off their books.

I don’t get how a doctor can fuck that up. The health CRM software shit will pop up a YOU SHOULD NOT DO THIS whenever you start adding drugs that will interact. I mean lazy and stupid I guess, but still, they already HAVE a computer telling them to not do dumb shit.

Goatse was always for amateurs.

Tubgirl was the go-to whenever I was sufficiently annoyed.

Android Police; they were never going to do anything to flout a law.

Police that follow the law to the letter? Well that’s unexpected.

(Yes, I know they’re not actually police, and whatever, but it amused me.)

As it is most doctors barely provide good care anymore.

As someone who nearly died and has seen a plethora of doctors over the last 2 years, you’re not wrong.

The specialists or surgeons have all been knowledgable and good, but the generalists I’ve seen for routine stuff have ranged from barely sentient prescription pad, to actually good.

You probably could replace some of the walking prescription pads with an AI and not lose much, but I wouldn’t trust an AI for anything more complicated than a sore throat, personally.

But where’s the shareholder value in a simple machine reading some colored dots?

You can also just drop the youtube channel link (ex. https://www.youtube.com/@LinusTechTips ) as well into most readers and it’ll sort it out for you, so you don’t even have to go digging.

And if you don’t want to deal with those breaking (becaue google is actively shooting them in the face) they DO provide RSS feeds for your creators.

Just add the channel url to your feed reader (ex. https://www.youtube.com/@LinusTechTips )and forget the youtube webui exists.

And frankly, even if he’s not a facist himself, the CEO saying something that fucking stupid makes me think that you shouldn’t trust him to run the slurpee machine at a 7-11, let alone something sensitive like your email.

It’s raid rebuild times.

The bigger the drive, the longer the time.

The longer the time, the more likely the rebuild will fail.

That said, modern raid is much more robust against this kind of fault, but still: if you have one parity drive, one dead drive, and a raid rebuild, if you lose another drive you’re fucked.

Huh. I’ve been part of a couple dozen ones and I don’t think I’ve ever seen more than a couple of dollars. I THINK the biggest settlement was $22 or $23 or something like that.

Nice to know that, in theory at least, you could recover what was wrongfully taken from you.

Gonna disagree here.

Humans have always had “social media”, but it’s not been directed by a cadre of oligarchs until recently.

I mean shit, humans have been sitting around the campfire telling stories to each other going all the fucking way back to forever. Sure, a campfire story isn’t a tweet, but for our monkey brains it’s essentially the same thing: how we interact with our social groups and learn what’s going on around us.

The problem is that the campfire stories couldn’t be manipulated into making your cavemen neighbors hate the other half, because half of them were totally pro rabbit fur while you’re pro squirrel fur.

You absolutely can do that and worse now, so while we’ve always had social media, we just simply never had anyone with enough control to make an entire society eat each other because of it’s influence.

Has there ever been a class action settlement that actually made all the people who were harmed whole?

Because somehow I doubt it.

I’m sure it’ll be free from Epic Games in like 4 or 5 years like every other game I’ve been playing recently, so meh.

Bleed them impatient whales, I guess?

It’s the only way they’re going to figure out what he had for breakfast, so what else are they supposed to do?

In the immortal words of Nelson Muntz: Ha Ha.

So while not entirely related, I have a question.

I’ve got a Windows 10 box hooked to my TV and you’re right, it’s great.

Until you end up with fonts so small they’re unreadable, even with a 300% scaling on the 4k TV because it seems like every third random gaming piece of software just fucking ignore scaling.

You ever find a working solution to that?

My ass is old, and trying to do couch gaming from a PC means it’s a 50/50 chance I’m either squinting and giving myself a headache or having to walk over to the tv to read whatever stupid shit some game has decided to use 8pt font for.

If this happens I’m now personally blaming you.

Just send your ID in and they’ll authorize Unlokr to let you buy your dish soap in peace.
