I didn't say that's what it meant.

This article also confirms for me that it is pointless to donate to Wikipedia. Most of these donations go to non-Wikipedia activities.

I do love the Wikipedia software though. Run multiple instances.

Why is your username Wikipedia sucks lol?

Interesting read but got to call out one part that made me think this reporter is at least partially nonsense:

Mburugu did not respond to an e-mail sent late Wednesday evening.

This article was published on Thursday. Late Wednesday night is most likely midnight or later in Kenya. Essentially the author gave zero time to reply.

If I’m not mistaken koans are typically based on much older stories. This guy is 20th century. Great question though!

How knowledgeable are you about that site? How does seeding help normal downloads?

Season one we have no idea what’s going on but the beginning of season two we know too much for there to be much mystery. Yeah we don’t know Helly’s motives and what they’re working on but neither of those are as interesting as the first season’s total confusion.

Examples:

Random farm scene

Welcome! What do you hoard? What do you find important? (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)
 

Datahoarding is appealing to me because I want to give others access to what matters most to me. I therefore primarily hoard movies, tv shows, and other media torrents on my main server.

Recently, I've found hoarder app to be a good tool to not just save links but archive web pages. I wonder what other people use? Nothing wrong with wget either. (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)

Hello I would like to share some communities I made on my instance. (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)
 

!buddhism@lemmy.selfhostcat.com !gradschool@lemmy.selfhostcat.com !datahoarder@lemmy.selfhostcat.com !ipod@lemmy.selfhostcat.com !parenting@lemmy.selfhostcat.com

I mod some of these communities on other instances but wanted to provide decentralized alternatives, since that’s the whole point of Lemmy, and explore admining since I enjoy selfhosting :)

Very niche communities but I welcome anyone to join and post.

Use some bandwidth to archive US government sites as part of the Archive Team (social.luca.run)

I set up an instance of the ArchiveTeam Warrior on my home server with Docker in under 10 minutes. Feels like I'm doing my part to combat removal of information from the internet.

How much do you find FOSS important and why? What length do you go to use it over CSS? (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)
 

I previously didn’t really care but selfhosting has slowly pushed me to really care about my media and data. Moved to Linux, try to prefer FOSS even if some minor function is lost. But considering when it’s not worth it.

For me, it’s that I have 100% control and the devs respect the consumers enough to show they have nothing to hide.

What is your methodology behind note taking and other research related services you host? (lemmy.selfhostcat.com)

  • my methods have been:

  • use trilium for any detailed notes and documentation

  • memos for random thoughts especially if shorter

  • pen and paper when offline or on mobile because mobile trilium and moememos both suck

  • zotero for citation and bibliography manager

  • backed up to nextcloud

  • i have paperless-ngx but found it randomly errors a ton of things and zotero is fine.

  • considering if it’s worth it to have so many different spread out methods

  • theyre fun to use but it creates more chaos then needed
