    @JAC wow. Thanks for the great comments. They are truly appreciated.

    I tend to agree with the social media comments you’ve made. This is made all the more prominent in relation to recent events in Southport for example, and toxicity is a huge issue. Just look at some of the comments from trolls - they are truly disgusting, and the perpetrators seem to take great delight in the anonymity the Internet affords them.

    forums in general are much more subject focused, easier to moderate and users are less likely to be banned because they are there for a specific interest or reason, not to cause trouble.

    Agreed, although discussions can still get out of hand and quite often, these are left to run riot and quickly spiral out of control. A great example of that is here

    there’s something much more calming about coming to a specific page at your fancy, posting and taking part in healthy debates over the real mishmash of social media.

    Yes, I personally prefer the atmosphere of a forum against the backdrop of unwanted noise via social media.

    @phenomlab yeah you have a good point there. Information over lives just doesn’t seem to be worth it. And being the one to release that info and be the one who first put it out there, you may be on the right track about the notoriety.

    @phenomlab said in Recall to take screenshots every 2 seconds:

    Not that it matters to me - my laptop runs KDE Neon

    That is a really nice distro.

    @crazycells if it does indeed materialise, then this could well be a landmark case that sets a precedent. But, I don’t hold much hope to be honest. I’d like to be wrong.

    @crazycells hi - no security reason, or anything specific in this case. However, the nginx.conf I posted was from my Dev environment which uses this port as a way of not interfering with production.

    And yes, I use clustering on this site with three instances.

    @Madchatthew said in AI... A new dawn, or the demise of humanity ?:

    Someone speaks up about a huge company that they are doing wrong and then person ends up committing suicide

    This lends itself perfectly to a movie plot! Reminds me of the Pelican Brief.
