Inflation is not prices, it’s a rate of increase of prices. Even if Inflation is at 0%, prices won’t decrease, 0% mean prices stability. To see prices diminish, Inflation would need to be negative, in that case it’s depression.

I re-installed a linux only system on my laptop. Windows doesn’t give update anymore.

can’t lose them if you never had! check mate life !

frankyboi,

for some reason I had to reset my password.

Any Canadian's considering moving to the USA?

I’m kind of in a strange boat right now where I’m really comfortable in Canada yet I can’t shake this feeling I need to get over to the US of A in order to take advantage of that strong USD. I, like many Canadians, work for an American firm and have a TN visa. Recently, my employer offered to sponsor me for a green card,...

frankyboi,

If you have a lot of money , why not? But think to the cost of travel to see your family.

frankyboi,

there is, but you need to find the right job. I doubt low wage job have anything good. If you are a professional that might be good .

frankyboi,

I would like you to elaborate on personal freedom. That’s very vague.

Still not enough content. I already feel the slow down in activities. I’m in a weird spot rn. I go back to reddit because there’s more interesting stuff to see, but the official apps is so bad, that I come back here. Also People here seems more intelligent on avg.

I like lemmy because there is no ads and no gold and premium stupid stuff like NFTs and 50$ awards. I liked the awards ideas ,but damn paying up to 100$ for digital emojis that everyone will forget in a day?

The big downside is the lack of embedded videos. Of course videos takes a lot of server power compared to text. But I hope we find a way to implement this in the future.

I think we should have a public board that shows the instance hardware spec and the finance. So we can set donations goals to upgrade servers or keep them afloat.

What is the best filesystem for archive ? BTRFS, ZFS, ReFS?

How will quantum computer affect your field ?

What is the 2023 bottleneck ?

IMHO , it’s permanent storage . I remember in 2005 up to 2010, we all wanted the fastest CPU , more GHz , more cores ,etc. the industry gives us that . Then during the last decade , we all wanted a more powerful GPU, more core ,more memory ,more Mhz. We also craved faster internet connection ,now we have optical fiber with 3.5Gb/sec in home for 120$/month .(impossible to think in 2014)

Nowadays , I have the impression that permanent storage is lagging behind . With the new medias being in 8K, video games storing average 100Gb and what not, we regularly move around dozens of Gb, even as casual users .

le mieux est de se débarrasser des voitures purement et simplement . On a besoins de plus de vélo et de trottoirs sécuritaires . Savez vous ce qui est agréable , calme et sécuritaire pour construire une maison ? Pas une banlieue, mais une ville sans voiture . Les nord américains vont trouver toute les raisons du monde pour conserver leur voiture . Qu’est-ce qui coûte 10 fois moins à construire et entretenir ? Pistes cyclable et infrastructures pour piétons . Qu’est-ce qui est rapide et économique en voyages pour faire l’épicerie ? Une épicerie de quartier . Qu’est-ce qui est sécuritaire et rapide pour les enfant qui se rendent à l’école tout en développent un sens de l’indépendance ? Une école de quartier à 15 minutes de marche . Qu’est-ce qui coûte rien à entretenir ? Un vélo. Qu’est-ce qui risque le moins de te tuer quand t’es soûl ? Un vélo . Qu’est-ce qui pollue le moins ? yep

Nos villes et vie et identitées ont été construite autour et pour la voiture . Et ça c’est un choix politique et c’est dû à des décennies de propagande et de lobbying .

C’est dur de faire changer le monde d’idée parce que pour beaucoup ,leur char c’est leur identité. C’est même un rite de passage à l’âge adulte . Et c’est bien normal , parce que si tu n’a pas de voiture , tu est un citoyen de seconde zone , littéralement . C’est plus dure de participer dans la société professionnellement , électoralement, socialement , ou juste pour magasiner . C’est agiste, ableist et un test de pauvreté.

frankyboi,

I will not sit at desk to read . Smartphone are just way better for this kind of task . Most people access the internet with a smartphone ,not a PC tower.

frankyboi,

once you have a a phone , why pay 300$ for a tablet ? I was thinking to buy a tablet because I spend an outrageous amount of time reading stuff on the internet . I looked at low-end tablet and the screen quality was terrible . I look at a S7 FE tablet ,700$, way better , but should I spend 700$ for 3 inch bigger screen ? Tablet on the toilet? I don’t think so. Tablet in my shower shelves , no. Tablet in my bed,maybe , but just while sitting … What about listening to podcasts … My phone do it and fit in my pocket , my bicycle , my car and my jogging fanny bag. So the tablet would be used only while I’m the couch or laying in my bed… but at this point I have a laptop . I have a 42 inch tv connected to my pc tower ,and a laptop that I barely use. Since I’m sitting all day long at my job. I prefer to lay down on my sofa at night ,not sit again behind a monitor on an office chair .

Gen Zers are turning to ‘radical rest,’ delusional thinking, and self-indulgence as they struggle to cope with late-stage capitalism (fortune.com)

Gen Zers are still in the early stages of their careers and personal finance journeys, but their financial habits are already proving to be radically different from those of their predecessors. With heightened levels of anxiety about the future grounded in very real socioeconomic and environmental issues, Gen Zers are...

frankyboi,

I will tell you my permaban.

on r/science , some news about homosexuality suffering or something and republicans not understanding something .

I’m genuinely leftist.

I make an obviously sarcastic comment. “That’s because they’re gay!”

no /s

Get banned from r/science for that. I ask the mod why ? it was obviously sarcastic and I was implying that was what right wing would say because they are stupid . He says, he shouldn’t have to guess if something is sarcastic . I tell him he got no sense of irony and 2nd degree . An hour later ,I’m permabanned for hate speech or something .

Yeah . Reddit is a circle jerk full of power tripping mods. I have seen many worse offense without any bans.

But I criticized a popular mod.

Therefore , perma ban.

frankyboi,

That would be absolutely awesome . that would attract a lot of people! We need cool stories to make lemmy cool.
