  • if they say you should die because you wanted to talk with them, they are not nice people. you should avoid them for your own benefit. try to find other people if you can, but I would say being alone even is better on a scale. I was in a similar situation for years. and when I thought it ended, it all came back with other people for another few years. if you are a child in school, locked together with them, mentally prepare yourself that they’ll continue bullying you even if you don’t contact them, and that most teachers won’t care. still, you should try getting help if the madness does not stop.






  • where did I imply it is black and white? I did not say that there are no people who reasonably want to rent, of course there are.

    but I’m pretty sure that it’s not even half the people.

    the problem is not that people who want to rent can’t, they have plenty of options! but that people who specifically dont want to rent, very often does not have amy other choice.
    buying a house for a family comes with a lifelong loan, with all the aid possible, and buying a house as an individual or as a couple is just not possible anymore where I live. unless you have an exceptionally high salary. even just buying an empty parcel or one where there’s only a house so bad it needs to be demolished costs so much, if there’s a habitable house the bank won’t even give a loan.

    Wouldn’t you like to travel the world and see the sights? Would you want to have to buy a house and sell your old one every single time you changed countries? I think not.

    I want to travel, but not through all my life. maybe move to another country if that becomes reachable. but you shouldn’t assume the majority wants to move that often.







  • you and perhaps @curbstickle@lemmy.dbzer0.com, may I ask if you use samba with portable devices, like laptops?

    I do and my experience is that programs that try to access it when I don’t have network access tend to freeze, including my desktop environment, but any file managers too if I click the wrong place by accident. but it occurs enough without user action too.
    oh and it breaks all machines at once if the server or network is down. which is rare but very annoying.

    did you experience this too? do you have some advice? is SMB just unsuitable for this?

    honestly I would prefer if the cifs driver would keep track of last successful communication, and if it was long ago instantly fail all accesses. without unmounting so that open directories and file handles keep being valid.
    and if all software on this world wouldn’t behave as if they were doing IO on the main thread. honestly this went smoother with windows clients but I’m not going back.



  • docker in a vm in proxmox!

    no but really. I don’t like that the vm host’s kernel is shared with all the containers.
    then maybe have 2 or 3 VMs, one of which hosts essential services (not like your nextcloud, but services that are necessary to make the (internal or whole home) network work like DNS and DHCP, maybe monitoring, and another that hosts your convenience services (jellyfin, nextcloud). the first is easier to fix if it breaks, the second is not the end if the world if it does. maybe also have a third for services that would be painful to have offline (nextcloud), but try to limit it to few tasks because the goal is simplicity. this setup can help with distro upgrade difficulties, and vm custom configuration issues when you have set up something that seems to work but will prevent VM startup sometime in the future.

    podman could be a good idea too.
