NextCloud server is AGPL 3.0

OpenCloud server is Apache 2.0

Not OP, but having files and folder structures accessible in the OS helps with a lot of tasks and interoperability.

If I want to add media files to Jellyfin, etc, I can’t just drop them into the video folder remotely because I have it mapped to a particular folder on the drive. If I want to make a copy of a large folder, I first have to mount the cloud as a “remote” drive, then do the operation from there.

It’s much easier to access files and folders outside of a database if they are needed for anything outside of the cloud service. I know that there may also be some security and efficiency factors that make a database favorable, but in terms of ease of use, it is just more effort to use a fileserver that operates through a database.

There are several apps and UIs that do this. Tesseract for one.

My wife had unbelievable pain in her feet, especially during pregnancy. We tried a lot of things before going to a foot doctor. It’s not necessarily the cheapest thing in the world, but they have a lot of neat toys that can analyze your individual foot and create custom insoles. It’s an easy investment in your health.

It’s just because they used novel punctuation — some people still type like this.

Depends on the bean.

1. I like to own the stuff I buy.

2. I don’t want to pay a corporation a monthly fee to access my own data.

3. I don’t want a corporation or government to have unlimited access to my stuff.

Having come from zero knowledge, to now self-hosting for over a year, I can tell you that you just search for them one at a time. Sometimes they will make sense. Sometimes not yet.

Stick around here, ask questions, and look things up.

What about one mosquito with six guns?

All these years we’ve been using skeletons for spooky decorations, when the muscular system was right there the whole time!

is this Low Quality Facts?

No, they already have Metapedia for that.

Great! Love this app!

Right now I’m using Jellyfin for my music server. If I ever switch back to subsonic / navidrome, then you’re my number one pick by a mile. Thank you for making this!

Someone call Dustin Hoffman!

A Teen Was Suicidal. ChatGPT Was the Friend He Confided In. | New York Times

Holy shit. We know that ChatGPT has a propensity to facilitate suicidal ideation, and has led to suicides. It not only fails to direct suicidal individuals to the proper help, but actually advances people toward taking action.

How many people has this killed?

I am a depression survivor. Depression is a disease and it can be deadly, but there is help.

If you are having suicidal thoughts, you can get help by texting or calling 988 in North America, or text ‘SHOUT’ to 85258 in the UK.

I just want my money back that I spent on a show that’s been “delayed” for a year and a half.

Yep, if China is selling of its US bonds, they we have to ask who is going to buy them. Overall weakens the USD.

I think you just made my point, but harder. Debt is actually great for “the lenders,” i.e. whoever buys treasury bonds. If the government wants to spend money on something, they have to issue a bond. The bondholders are paying for it. If you run out of bondholders, you have to increase the interest offered to make it more appealing than other investments.

It’s not just “moving numbers on a ledger.”

That would be essentially the same as printing more money,* which is what leads to hyperinflation and the collapse of economies. The higher the total debt, the more taxes go into paying interest on debt, rather than services (the nurses and water engineers mentioned above). There is a whole other discussion on where that spending on services spending should be prioritized.

Where does that Tax money go? Obviously it’s a payment to bondholders, which are generally wealthy individuals, corporations, or nations, but can also be held by the US Government (maybe that’s what you mean by “moving numbers on a ledger?”).

Edit: source

*The Fed does change the money supply through interest rates, which can generate inflation.

Debt is fine in a strong global economy, but it creates big problems when there is no market for the debt.

Someone is still paying for it - by buying Treasury bonds. The more debt, the more interest has to be paid to make it appealing. That means tax money going to pay (mostly wealthy) bondholders.
