Thank you so much for taking the time to answer!

I’m not sure how to get the N from session history, nor how to check my session history…

but this might be some relevant output I’ve found with journalctl -k -b

Nov 21 16:08:18 rpi kernel: usb 2-2.1-port2: cannot reset (err = -110)

The output is from yesterday, when the device stopped working correctly.

I’m not familiar with linux kernel, but I can see there is definitely something wrong…

The HDD (old) is attached to a USB hub (new), I tried switching port of the hub but the same issue happened again, if I try to mount it with sudo mount /mnt/2tb, it says it is already mounted:

mount: /mnt/2tb: /dev/sdb1 already mounted on /mnt/2tb.
       dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.

sudo dmesg | grep sdb gives back:

[147776.801028] I/O error, dev sdb, sector 77904 op 0x0:(READ) flags 0x3000 phys_seg 1 prio class 2

I wonder why we don’t have AI browser extensions that can recognise and obscure possible ads / unwanted content yet

Badum tssss

If it was less expensive and provided some privacy i would probably happily pay for it.

I’m actually curious on Rust, i don’t like how dispersive can be JavaScript, i prefer to build smaller, maybe uglier things, but that work and are nicely stable, scalable and can be integrated on multiple different platforms. Also i love that almost everything runs on Cargo and i don’t have to choose between 100 things that essentially cover the same target. I also think the Discord idea is quite good, i just want to find someone who is on my same level to grow / build cool things toghether, or small projects on which i can actively partecipate, there’s also an association near me that promotes opensource projects and give free code lessons, i might give it a try as well and see if i meet someone there. I’m gonna give it another try before deciding of giving up, i think it is deserved.

And how you deal with that, how do you choose what to do and what not to do?

Honestly when i first got into coding i liked the fact it could give me jobs i could do from every part of the world, that is still on demand and that gave a certain freedom on how you approach technology and customize it to make it your own, i always liked to tinker around with computer and i even have a small home server i use for several stuff. I loved how useful internet was to find informations otherwise unreachable and share stuff without censorship woth everyone, as i said i love the story of the cypherpunk movement, i see bitcoin as a real solution to our obsolete economy, and i thought i would have liked to have a role into changing this shitty system paradigms, my target was to work with lightining network or similar protocols maybe one day. However i feel like i’m changing lately and i’m lacking human interactions so much, there’s no point in building something toghether if there’s no emotions to share with others before, during and after the process. Maybe it’s just how i’m made, but i cannot stick to it, i just get super depressed and i see no point in doing it. Maybe i’m just lazy i don’t know, but it is like that.

Adding the fact that sometimes i feel like technology controls me, and not the opposite despite all the efforts i make, feels just super wrong and not how i want to live.

I’m studying webdevelopment so i’ve had the opportunity to work only on simple stuff so far, but it already feels super overwhelming, sometimes i get lost just in setting up my coding environment, just to realize it will only be one of many i’ll need to learn how to work with.

Yeah i have microg but some of the apps don’t work very well either

This sounds like a torture

You just need to reboot it manually

Our need to survive will always lead us to make a true change. Climate engineering and terraforling can surely be a way but it’s not enough for now, we need an immediate solution to deal with the current problems, we need to understand the technologies we have now and what we can do with them.

Work on solutions, with your own studies, your own work, collaborate and build.

Mate believe me i’m thorn between the exact same feelings…

It’s hard to find a balance in an unbalanced world, a world that is demanding us to work hard to fix important problems and to create new and different possibilities.

At the same time a lot of us are just needing social interactions to the point they are starving: a lot of people of my generation grew up with technology ( the specific capitalist kind of technology that wanna keep you glued to the screen even if it’s hurting you) and are really in the need of some real human contact.

Finding a balance is incredibily hard, there’s this will of finding truth: true actions, true relationships, true help.

But at the same time the actions required to find solutions could take us a lot of time, mental and phisical resources…

But from as i see it now, i feel good if i can live one good day with the people i love even if rarely, than living with the consciousness i’ve never even tried to do something to change the world and create a better future for me and for them.

That’s exactly us that could push and work to make those changes happen, you have more power than you realize. And that’s probably OUR responsability to make those changes happen, because we all know fossil-fuels companies won’t decide to stop selling their resources after their saw some of their most proficuos years (just look the datas for 2022, it was the most profitable year for them).

Come on guys, it’s our turn to remedy to this disaster and to make the world a better place!

We can totally do it. Let’s work togheter and let’s work hard, there’s nothing more beautiful than to think of possible solutions that would make us all live better.

Had to deal with that this morning, my god what does git want me to do

Gotta say thar for someone who is currently following a JavaScript course this is pretty descouraging ahaha

I gotta say i also fell in that category of people trying to use JavaScript for stuff that is not exactly JavaScript suited. For example i’m writing a little script that changes markdown links in some files using the fs node, this is probably better suited to do in bash or other languages but the first thought was: i know a bit of JavaScript and that took a lot of time, what would be the point of learning a new syntax with all the stuff i will have to learn only on js!

May i ask why everyone hates JavaScript so much? It’s not ironic it’s a real question, i can’t really get it, is it just because it doesn’t have types? Or there’s more?

That looks way more than a home server, it looks like something i would expect to see for a small business!

My favorite one is “There is an issue”
