@gamersnexus decided to take no prisoners with this one ;)

@pluralistic book about the way "big tech" is robbing us of choices couldn't be better commentary to raising memory prices (and SSDs.. and everything). I highly recommend reading it ASAP if you haven't done so yet. "Run, you fools!": https://craphound.com/category/internetcon/ I'll share one quote here. Run your own email server. Use *open* federated social media. Support @eff and/or your local privacy/freedom supporting NGOs. Do this today, before it's to late.

Donate and support @eff - You get more freedom protections, in contact with interesting people and... stiiiiickeeeeeeers! (Yes, I already used some of them)

As @mozilla decided to marry to AI ensittification, anyone can recommend just *a* browser that's not driving ads and surveillance, cryptobros, nazis or red nazis? I'm switching today to ungoogled chromium, but maybe there's something better.

Jeśli chociaż w połowie jest jak w tej książce, to jest bardzo źle. Wole nie myśleć, że może być gorzej. Najgorsze jest to, że powtarzamy lata trzydzieste ubiegłego wieku i nie zamierzamy wyciągnąć wniosków. Druga książka Pani Edyty - "Wojsko z tektury". Polecam.

I mean... it still took surprisingly long IMHO. #humanity

I don't do webmail. But when I do, I always use "realgymessentials.com" to reset my password. And I share "internal communication" with the world.

How to know given service is absolute piece of sh*? Well, that's red flag the size of observable universe:

The only thing missing on this drawing is last line that reads: "Shot down using AMRAAM: YES". #nato #amraam

Kids, do backups. Proper ones - 3-2-1. Some of you may never had chance to work with "spinners" (mechanical disk drives). They typically gave you time to migrate your data out. SSD dies immediately and then it's just gone. Pictured here is 4TB of VMs from under FreeBSD bhyve NAS server. It was there happily kicking ass at 20:09:09. It was gone by 20:09:11. #zfs #freebsd #backups #redundancy
