the surprises are because you trusted magic LVM to take care of it. learn dm-cache and configure it how you want.

your comment is trivial. there are no holocaust survivors reading this page of hacker news. it’s not going to “happen again” or be “forgotten” because someone swaps the words of a phrase everybody knows. spend your energy on something else other than ruining the internet, making us self censor every little thing typed online. lest someone who had nothing to do with the event or problem take offense on behalf of others.

I have a penalty on https://garyshood.com/rsclient/ which used to be the number one term for "autoclicker" several years running.

I think it was due to comment spam since I didn't moderate the comments and since then the invisible penalty has never gone away. I've given up on trying. people just have to search "garys autoclicker" if they want to find it now, or have it bookmarked. "autoclicker" is pushed all the way back to page 4 for my site now. on bing I am page 2 behind basically autoclicker dot org and every other variation of the TLD

Then we'd actually put real effort into controlling it so we could go back to life as normal even with the virus not fully eradicated.

ok now imagine the virus lives on surfaces for 5+ years and never dies. now what? you can’t eradicate this virus by quarantining, someone, and it only takes one, is going to spread it somehow.

now answer with that in mind. “we would just fix it” is a cop out, we can’t fix it.

you have no sense of math. if you forcefully took back every mansion and giant boat from the rich and sold them at auction for double their value, you wouldn’t even fund the medicare/medicaid budget for more than two years.

rich people can buy teslas and green energy. you’re wasting your time thinking this will help poor people. it won’t. it’ll reduce the rich’s consumption but everyone else will still use poor people tech and end up getting carbon taxed. maybe redirect your efforts to something useful.

the certbot tools were made with the "default" experience in mind and no one tries them with more custom setups. the fact that they don't have easy guides on how to do it without certbot is worrying. you should be able to get a straightforward automated experience without having to use their convoluted tool that will choke and leave you hanging.

google certbot systemd or certbot openrc to see it fail. tack on that they had to invalidate all of their certs one day and gave little warning and you could easily have experienced revoked SSL certs if your system wasn't the default setup.

there are people in battle.bet ladder. you can’t use mods there. you could play open but it’s all hackers. if you want to beat hell mode you have to go as a firewall / frozen orb mage or a necromancer that uses skeletons and corpse explode. you’ll need an act 2 merc as well. good luck lol. if you can get one friend to tank you can do it much easier.

I ran garyshood.com off of a pentium 3 dell poweredge and a comcast connection in its peak (2009-2012). I couldn't offer an upload speed of more than 20-40kb/s without slowing down the house. but with traffic shaping rules and following most of what he's outlined here, it was easy. it wasn't even cpubound, it was just network bound, but I could still handle 100-300k unique visits a month. I did have to host the downloadable exe for the autoclicker on a third party for $3 a month, even at 120kb that thing would use too much house bandwidth.

yeah this would actually be the ideal world. shame. I don't even know how to programmatically sign into a google account anymore. it used to be easy enough with a few curl calls and I could retrieve my adsense reports but now it's just impossible. their login process is too convoluted now and involves so much javascript, I doubt it's possible with anything but headless chrome.
