@berkes that's 40r/s. any website that can't handle 40r/s shouldn't be on the internet
i think the worst part about tech, tech people, privacy people, linux people, pc weenies, et c, is the insanely pervasive "well uhh this is the way we've always done it, so we like it this way, and you should stop"
ya, cool. do you like computing like it's 1997 still? i know some of you actually do, but tbh that sucks. i got into being a hacker because we were using *future* technology, not "whatever was in use when we were 15, but forever".
hmm, apps have to request internet permission in android.
https://developer.android.com/training/basics/network-ops/connecting
is this surfaced in the gui? can you deny an app permission to speak on the network on first launch?
why has desktop linux not adopted the android permissions model?
@snow @morb it's a single user instance - it's this one (@sneak.berlin).
@paoloredaelli nothing ever requires you to buy an apple machine. you can build osx apps in an osx vm using xcode and distribute them unsigned. it's a pain in the ass for users to run it, but it will work fine.
i love esoteric bots like @quasi_crystals
@freon i read this at first as "is a gab.com link" and i was like "wow, that's a bit harsh" (to github). but yes, gitlab is ugly.
@mewmew i am an exception to your third group
@berkes a rails or shared wordpress will go down if a link to it is shared on social media too, for the same reason. the web is big now and servers need to serve. nothing is broken here.
@berkes i think you underestimate the ability of a pi. it can easily serve hundreds of requests per second for static files.
@morb attachments use tons of disk (though you can run some cli command to prune stuff older than a certain amount of time). i think last time i checked it was using 500GB and i pruned it and it went down to 150GB or something
