Hmm, I went with the mobo cause I wanted the Nuvoton I/O Controller since I’d read that was more likely to have sensor support with Linux.

Was having a hard time finding them since I could only find the info by driving into support .pdfs but I could look around more.

Haha no, it’s just what I have from my old box, it’s storage for media mostly. I put those on as placeholders so I could calculate max power draw.

I will definitely be picking up a NVMe SSD at some point, it’s just not necessary for my initial build. You have completely valid points.

I actually really liked that idea, thank you.

Probably because no one has any proof other than anecdotal evidence. And the vast majority of times it’s looked into it’s because the person reporting it doesn’t understand how else their information is collected (i.e. web searches, intranet data for other people, browsing histories, etc.)

Look at it this way, is it more likely that the majority of security researchers that look into it, find nothing, and deem these use cases as inefficient and improbable, are wrong; OR is it more likely that data collectors builds good profiles, mixed with some Baader-Meinhof, a little Dunning-Krueger, and a lot of coincidence?

Not everything is a big conspiracy, nuance is neccesary, or the sky will always be falling.

I’m not the one spreading bullshit to make myself feel better about a fucking security blanket.

You’re literally doing that with antivaxxing. Holy projection batman.

Because “Google”, an antivax opinion hitpiece with a single source about efficacy (yes there are other sources about absolutely nothing to do with transmission and more about how poor antivax folks are demonized, cmon dude), and what everyone “just knows” from the last two years are magic arbiters of truth…

Lol fuck off dude. Give me some actual sources/studies with no opinion whinging and I’ll bite.

Until then, you’re the very thing you keep writing everything else off as, conspiratorial nonsense.

LOL. Your source is an antivax hit piece, with a single quote about unknown efficacy in 2020 tied behind a whole slew of conspiracy logic.

This is supposed to be painfully obvious?

Dude…

Would love to see your source on that.

But even if that’s true (which I have a hard time believing considering the nature of vaccines), it’s been repeatedly proven that the vaccine does dramatically reduce both symptoms and life-ending complications.

These types of threads always come across as whiny and overblown to me. Kbin works just fine the majority of the time, and it’s still my preferred method for accessing microblogging/thread data.

The fediverse is a massive project, if you don’t like what one part is doing go elsewhere, you can access most content in a variety of ways and it’s good to have alternatives.

I’m far more appreciative of what kbin brings to the table than what all these naysaying posts and circle-jerks bring up everytime there is a lull.

Is there criticism of kbin, sure? But how is this constructive rather than whiny doom bait.

Edit: OPs whole post history is kbin whining. Whew.

Pretty sure that’s on lemmy. They did something that introduced a lot of errors and added redundant overhead and it also broke kbin that handles all federated thread content.

Poor dude was on holiday too, lemmy kind of screwed up their timing and push here imo.

I like how he literally answered your question, with an answer that made perfect sense.

Gave resonas as to why this answer doesn’t exist yet.

And you still had the nerve to call it a defection. Pretty sure your goalposts don’t even exist at this point.

If you think every instance is going to follow suit with your example you’re an idiot. I’d love for you to show numbers of instances that follow your logic, and not just a single comment that made you unhappy with how it played out.
