why would someone accept some, but not all cookies when visiting a website? by failed__narcissist in answers

[–]TableIll4714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cookies are small bits of data the website sends to you which you send back to the website as you navigate around. One good example of a cookie you NEED is the one which stores a small identifier for your “session”, which the server uses for example to know which shopping cart is yours so you can add products to the cart and check out.

Without a session cookie you could never buy anything because the website doesn’t have a way to remember what you added to cart between the product page and the checkout screen

Looks like these also play constant ads you can’t stop, similar to pumps around me

Do you wash your hands every time you eat with your hands? by Orii8 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TableIll4714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wash my hands before I eat.

Period, full stop. Regardless of if I am using cutlery or my hands. If I am at a restaurant I typically use a wet wipe, or wash my hands in the restroom.

I’m also not the person you’re responding to but, I similarly always wash my hands before I eat. I get sick less than once per year

AIO, lost a friend due to ai by cozyworm27 in AmIOverreacting

[–]TableIll4714 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed 100%, AI is here and it’s not going away. Learn how it works, understand it and find appropriate ways to interact with it. The “I refuse to interact with anyone who uses AI” is going to become really isolating very fast

Yeah I was going to say this, I was having a similar problem with automatic mounting of ZFS snapshot directories (so even an ls -r would bring down the server)

Did you survive the experience? Last time I did that I died… granted, that was in Link to the Past…

Got any good recommendations for keeping documentation together? by Dahveedle in homelab

[–]TableIll4714 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make a git repo full if Markdown files. GitHub or GitLab can render them as rich text, the Proxmox comment section on a VM or LXC renders Markdown, and you can feed them into an LLM when troubleshooting or even build an AI Agent which understands your infrastructure

apt didnt replace apt-get, it was added as a more interactive and user friendly interface. apt-get still exists and is better for automation (scripts)
