  • After yoloing it for years, I finally deployed an offaite backup this month. I also host on Nextcloud (at my house). While I do have a local disk backing up my Nextcloud install, I didn’t have any backups of the external media hosting my photos.

    Finally, I ordered a 10TB external drive and plugged it into a raspberry pi I had sitting around. Using wireguard and restic, I now have an offsite backup at a friend’s house!

    I hear what you’re saying, but it’s a different problem for me. If the dialog is in English, then I’m hearing it and reading it. In fact, I’m usually reading it right before hearing it. I can’t ignore/tune out either the written or spoken dialog. This completely breaks immersion for me. If the spoken language is something I don’t understand, then I have no trouble tuning it out in favor if the subtitles. Dubbed English is actually more immersion-breaking for me (non-animated media).

    Liberals fundamentally believe in the capitalist system. They would just like to reform it, or regulate it just the right amount. Within the US political spectrum, liberals are cast as “left wing”. Here on Lemmy, many people will encounter (perhaps for the first time) political perspectives that disdain liberals as the moderate wing of fascism. To these perspectives, liberalism is so wedded to capitalism, that it will sooner capitulate to naked fascism than make common cause with any anticapitalist revolutionaries.
