I have my personal blog, made with Hugo and hosted on GitHub pages. Initially I did not turn on any kind of web tracking / web analytics, because I do not like tracking at all. But I want to make my blog better and to achieve it, I need a feedback loop about traffic. For example, what are the most popular publications, or how...

I had the same opinion until recently. Wasn’t all that scared of heat until I read “The Heat Will Kill You First: Life and Death on a Scorched Planet” by Jeff Goodell
Yeah it looks that way because I used GPT4 to help me rearrange some stuff. Also did it a while back when I was relatively new to it and hadn’t completely made up my mind on what level of AI contribution I was comfortablw with.
Sure it’s scifiesque but I don’t feel it’s that far fetched.

Wanted to say that actually Hobbits have quite large feet, but as it turns out that was just something in the movies, and nowhere alluded to in the books.

This is the state of the modern internet — ultra-profitable platforms outright abdicating any responsibility toward the customer, offering not a “service” or a “portal,” but cramming as many ways to interrupt the user and push them into doing things that make the company money.

The book analyzes the elements that lead different nations to succeed or fail, in the author’s opinion, focusing on demographic, geographic, and historic factors. It asserts that the period from the 1950s to the 2020s represented a peak period of rapid economic development and innovation; meanwhile, the present (2022) and future would be associated with a rather abrupt slowing of such developments. In this view, deglobalization leads to deindustrialization, deurbanization, and even depopulation.
I have a server running Debian with 24 TB of storage. I would ideally like to back up all of it, though much of it is torrents, so only the ones with low seeders really need backed up. I know about the 321 rule but it sounds like it would be expensive. What do you do for backups? Also if anyone uses tape drives for backups I am...
When I was about 5-6 I had fever and couldn’t sleep. I lived in a apartment complex and my mom had the neighbour from the next apartment over for coffee so I was sitting in the neighbours apartment while they had the doors open into the hall. Well, there I was, sitting alone in the dark, watching some sappy teens have a heart to heart while suddenly the earth opens under one of them and it gets brutally eaten the fuck alive while the other one screams in panic and tries to rescue it. Had some unforgettable nightmares that night.

Yeah I found out the same when I moved back to Iceland. Buying a used car? Renting an apartment? Staying up to date on the parents groups in school, kids sports, any events by any business or group? Contacting any person?
Being forced to hand over all my personal information just to do any of the above really doesn’t sit well with me 😑
5 ml of Benadryl 1 hour before bed might knock you out?
Edit: My comment was not all that well thought out. I just recently observed my kid sleep instantly once the cough medicine kicked in. As others have pointed out, don’t use it consistently, could cause dementia and is super dangerous in high doses.
