    Anyone that was around while Reddit was growing will remember that there were few subreddits to begin with. I think fediverse needs that to happen before expanding.

    I don’t know how to fix it. Maybe sub-feddits need to be pruned if they aren’t thriving. Maybe tags in titles would be more helpful until they have enough content to warrant their on category.

    A lot of the responses are offering an all or none response. The issue isn’t OP wants to block all memes posts, they just don’t want to see them as often.

    This is an algorithm/fedi issue I suspect. It would require curation.

    Since fedi isn’t really about that, the only option is to downvote.

    Downvote shitty memes.

  • Certificate to own car in Singapore rockets to $106,000

    Yeah Singapore has good public transit options but it doesn’t handle everything.

    Many people own cars though and the certificate is transferable and is part of the car loan, so it mostly becomes a monthly cost.

    If you’re trying to show off in Singapore you have multiple cars in your own garage, including an old super car and an suv you use to drive to your boat club where you can take your boat out for the day.

    If I wanted to do this today I would use iTunes and an old iPhone as the mp3 player. I would use an old laptop to rip, or iTunes to purchase.

    The only thing worse than a single database server is servers poorly maintained database servers. The idea was right, but maybe the implementation was wrong.

    I manage storage systems as part of my day job. i think you would be happy with a simple direct attached storage device. You’d need a storage controller card and a storage controller. These are usually enterprise-grade items so they might be expensive. I suspect there are SATA options but SATA is pretty slow.

    QNAP and Synology are decent for what they offer, if you like the idea if turning it on, setting up an account, and then having access to both native and an easy 3rd-party store with no fiddling needed then they are a good idea. You can also setup an iSCSI connection for direct-attached storage over the network.

    It’s used for out of band management. With the correct hardware items (nic and gpu) it’s called vPro. With the proper certificate and supporting infrastructure it can auto-enroll into a management service such as SCCM. It allows companies to remotely view logs, bios settings and other items. With vPro it can include a complete remote KVM solution.

    You can disable it from most UEFI settings interfaces without worry of causing other issues.

    120 is the lower limit for killing stuff off. Not much will live or grow at a sustained 120.

    I leave mine at 120 and every Sunday it kicks up to 135 for an hour for peace of mind.

    I just looked they have a service called “alternative port 25” that addresses this issue.

    Honestly though, once you start adding up costs for these workarounds you have to wonder if it’s easier to just get a business internet circuit, cloud security gateway, or just host the email online.

    You can use a port reflector service. No ip.com might still offer it. Basically forwards anything incoming to their ip on port 25 to your ip and whatever port you specify.

    If you recall reddits growth many of their communities evolved as offshoots of a single generic community. This made it easier for people to see discussions they normally would not get involved in, and once the posts in a similar category reached critical mass it moved to a sub Reddit. I think people are recreating their niche communities here but they are floundering since the user base is still pretty small. Maybe it’s best to post to the “big” communities until the time is right to move to smaller, targeted communities?
