Raspberry Pi4? Then yes, here’s a guide to update your bootloader:

For older models(Pi<4), no but kinda: Afaik oder models could only boot from SD-cards. But that only means the bootloader has to be on the SD-card. So you can copy everything but the bootpartition and change the entry in the /etc/fstab to the new root on the SSD.
We’re way past that.
But it influences the community itself, doesn’t it? If you have a bunch of parrots saying what they think others want to hear suddenly you have a lot less real interactions and way more “reddit moments”… I like how mastodon did it and maybe lemmy should also provide the option to hide likes/dislikes alltogether.
My stomach rumbled just reading the word lol
Look at his post history. He doesn’t want to shit for three days. Didn’t elaborate. Fucking legend.
Aren’t some dried fruit laxative? Ate a bag of dates once, and boy did I have to run to the shitter.
Those usernames are so unimaginative. Who would pick a name like that?
Oh yeah good point, I didn’t think about server side compression. But I think noise videos might still be worse, since they provide no additional content for the platform.
Oh you meant literal raccoons, sorry my tired ass was still thinking of them metaphorically :D I don’t know, beeing an animal and not having to work is cool and all, but I like my opposable thumbs.
Oh sorry on Jerboa it does not show Community descriptions and I did not see the rules. But I am kind of curious tho, does it need do be worded like that? I wrote you should know this, if you want to keep the costs down, doesn’t that count? :P
A fellow cs mayor I see, no I apreciate the thoroughness. You are right I was trying to put it in laymans terms and might have been a little to cursory.
I gotta disagree on the pseudo randomness tho. At least in linux /dev/random generates its entropy pool by using device drivers. So there is no simple algorithm behind it where you can copy a seed. So you would have to to copy the system state and all external events happening (eg. the ethernet network traffic) to generate the same output.
Then be the racoon. Drive up the cost. Upload hour-long videos of white noise or pictures of John Oliver beeing sexy. I think I am going to create a couple of throwaway accounts just to show how unprofitable reddit can be ;)
Yeah I agree, tags like “gore/violence” and “sexually explicit” would be nice.
Oh yeah, good idea! Before this strike I only heard of Mastodon. Didn’t like it because it was so twitter-esque. I wasn’t even aware that there are other federated networks which are similar to reddit… If all of my posts and comments said something like “user moved to lemmy.world” I’d spread the word that there are alternatives.
I just did some more research and aparently my intel was a bit outdatet (from arount 2020). The guide should still work, though booting from SSD should be working by default and does not require any eeprom-updates. So you can probably start with step 4.
