In australia it takes 3.5-4 years for a PhD. Then after you finish you move on to postdoctoral research, because doing a second PhD makes no sense
You actually think you're going to rise up and fight against your national army? How about fighting for a better democracy instead, like by getting rid of Gerrymandering, abolishing corporate lobbyists, adopting preferential voting etc
Oh no! I only got an education from my school and didn't get to fire a gun even ONCE! Let me go sit in a corner and cry myself to sleep with my secure, well paying job and free health care. By the way I'm in army reserves and get paid to shoot rifles and automatic guns at firing ranges. It's okay, I guess, but I wouldn't go if I weren't paid lol
That was a good read with some helpful tips, but they didn't have a conclusion at the end so they never answered their own question!
Thanks, it was fun. I hope your day went well too!
Not bad, went to the gym this morning, actually did some work. I might do some of this course now.. Playing board games with friends this evening. I guess my life is pretty good, so not sure why I feel grumpy so often lol
Cool, I just installed Thunderbird and am giving it a go.
I would totally read that book
I'm all for getting into old school tech, I even like to browse neocities.org on occasion just for the hit of nostalgia for the old web rings. I never got into newsgroups though, and I'm wondering what reasons you might use that instead of something like Lemmy, Mastodon etc?
Apart from the piracy side, I know all about that already lol
FOSS version of google docs to run on a home server?
So I want to build a home server to use as a media server, and to back up my photos etc.
I am also currently doing an online course, and happen to spend some time at work as well as at home working on it. I don't like using Google where I can help it, but I find google docs really useful. So I'm wondering if there's an open source application that works essentially the same, but I could run off my own server? It would have to be web-based as I use Windows at work and can't install new programs :/
edit: Thanks everyone for your suggestions! I've got quite a few leads to follow now, it should be fun!
Maybe to avoid confusion, they should just display units in GB instead of GiB? Or just display both
In later news, US scientists confirm that water is wet.
Do you do much tinkering or other projects? I'm moving into a new place in December and wanna get into doing some electonics projects as a hobby, and this setup looks inspiring lol
yeah I knew a person who took heaps of benzos on a whim, then fucked up the next 10 years of their lives with a crippling addiction
I wish he had the balls to follow through with it
Since nobody likes calling it X, why don't we call the platform "ex-twitter"? That way it's technically true, and everybody knows what you're talking about.
or maybe eX-twitter

Docker for SABnzbd necessary?
Hi folks sorry if this is a dumb question, but I'm fairly new to Usenet and although I have it all set up, I saw some instructions to use a docker to run SABnzbd in?
I've been using it for about a month without one, but I'm worried there might be adding security or privacy risk?
