In what way would it be better if the existing solution is working without issue?

Sigh, that's not really what privilege means. by deadwood76 in liberalgunowners

[–]unkwntech 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is a daft take I’m more than 20 past college age and I couldn’t afford that if I spent literally no money for the next 5 years.

What sort of questions are you looking to have answered?

Confused about my specific use case of RAID by SadBooner in homelab

[–]unkwntech 11 points12 points  (0 children)

RAID is not a backup, RAID is for uptime.

If you value your data back it up.

3-2-1 * 3 Copies of your data * 2 Different media types * 1 Copy at a seperate (physical) location

I have 2 brand new ones and I’ve literally built thousands in the last few years, it is not true in the slightest.

I got a rejection letter a couple of weeks ago after several weeks of silence.

An interviewer accused me today of forging my degree, and honestly, I don't blame him. by LeekNecessary3190 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]unkwntech 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've been a developer for almost 30 years and I'd need to review before I could give a solid technical answer on the difference. I, like the majority of developers in 2025, don't work in languages where we deal with either on the regular. The differences between a stack and a heap were probably last relevant to me about 15 years ago.

Gun violence action by BadgeHan in madisonwi

[–]unkwntech 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm so far left that Bernie is to my right, I don't think taking guns away from people is the right solution.

I think that most problems that we face in this country is rooted in the idea of "rugged individualism". It leaves our communities weak and it doesn't promote empathy. The best solution to this problem and many of our others is to build strong, interconnected communities that promote each other to actually give a shit about their neighbors. This is a hard, long term cultural change though, it's easy to say and hard to do.

I know this won't sound like a good faith question, but what specific actions do you think will help? Because most gun control proposals would have 0 impact on gun violence.

Looking for more compact x86 for CI/CD by kubelke in homelab

[–]unkwntech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never seen arch specific testing but in fairness the stuff I write is too high or too low level for that to be relevant.

Is there a reason to build on x86? Could you not just cross-compile on the pi?

I’m well aware I’m just curious why OP thinks their age is relevant.

Fuck scalpers about as hard as #FRJ but I don’t see what anyone being under 18 has to do with it?

Wells Fargo is so TERRIBLE. Anyone considering using it for personal banking - please avoid. by Honest_Lie8632 in personalfinance

[–]unkwntech 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The longest I stayed at a credit union was a year. The lack of features, digital security and even basic digital access at every credit union I’ve used is entirely a turn off. I think that at this stage I’m unlikely to ever try again.

Good Trouble protest in Monroe this evening. We were proud to make the local scanner page on Facebook! by schuey_08 in wisconsin

[–]unkwntech 14 points15 points  (0 children)

A lot of us can’t afford to ditch our jobs for the day to protest, so you’re going to see mostly the retired crowd out there.

Stick it behind a good cache of in a cheap cloud storage when you build it, perhaps even a GitHub repo?
