I think the point would to be make them like cigarette warning labels. At the moment the text can be hidden on a bottle or can in tiny text. It needs to be a big ugly white box with a black border and large text that gets people's attention.

A supermarket trip may soon look different, thanks to electronic shelf labels ( www.npr.org )

Grocery store prices are changing faster than ever before — literally. This month, Walmart became the latest retailer to announce it’s replacing the price stickers in its aisles with electronic shelf labels. The new labels allow employees to change prices as often as every ten seconds....

Semi-cold? That's extra, you'll be lucky to afford it. The affordable water been sitting out on the pavement for a few weeks.

Is it price gouging if there is a heat advisory is my question, and how enforceable is that. For water it's just cruel, especially in places with little access to drinkable tap water.

This is what happens when you try to extract more and more value off the top of labor, without any added value other than line must go up. When suppressing wages is the only way to improve corporate profits, profits are capped and stockholders hate this. This is in theory suppose to encourage innovation to increase efficency (without just resorting to skeleton crews or pressuring labor for more output). Monopolies stop innovating due to market control and look at other methods of increasing profits with leverage rather than market competitiveness.

The r/FluentinFinance subreddit, a regular on the front page, may be a massive influence campaign ( lemmy.world )

The post in the screenshot was from January; the original poster has since been suspended for a reason I could not find, even with reveddit. Since then, the same 6 accounts mentioned above seem to be in some sort of limbo, as most of them have been suspended, but still post the same topics regularly....

Fluent in finance is just another forum that says it's your fault your poor. They say you don't play the game right and they may be right for a rigged game. But the fact is you shouldn't be required to play a game to get whats your fair share, and fluent in finance just says you didn't invest right and didn't setup your future right to live off the backs of other workers.

The rest is just hyperbolic headlines which drive engagement which is the cancer of any social media platform. No one makes a billion dollars in income as defined by the US tax code, they make a billion dollars in equity which can be used to back loans which is part of the whole issue of obscuring cash flow. Then they can just use this as fodder to call anyone supporting this idiots cause "No one makes a billion dollars a year" when we know they do, it's just accounted differently.

My question would be, why do you need a more powerful server? Are you monitoring your load and seeing it's overloaded often? Are you just looking to be able to hook more drives to it? Do you need to re-encode video on the fly for other devices? Giving some more details would help someone to give a more insightful answer. I personally am using a Raspberry Pi 4, Chromebox w/ an i7, an old HP rack server, and an old desktop PC for my self hosting needs, as this is cheaper than buying all new hardware (though the electricity bill isn't the greatest haha, but oh well). If you are just looking for more storage, using the USB 3.0 slots on the Raspberry Pi 4b you can add a couple extra SSDs using a NVMe to USB 3.0 enclosure. For most purposes the speeds will be fine for most applications.

As for SSD vs HDD, SSD hands down. The only reason you'd pick an HDD is if your trying to get more storage cheaper and don't mind a higher rate of failure. If your data is at all valuable, and it almost always is, redundancy should be added as well.

And as for running Linux, if it can't run Linux I wouldn't want to own it.

Edit: Fixed typo

Cloudflare Alternative

What do you guys use to expose private IP addresses to the web? I was using the npm proxy manager with Cloudflare CDN. However, it stopped working after I changed my router (I keep getting error 521). Looking for an alternative to Cloudflare cdn so I can access my media server/self-hosted services away from LAN....

This might help, sorry if it doesn't, but here is a link to CloudFlares 5xx error code page on error 521. If you've done everything in the resolution list your ISP might be actively blocking you from hosting websites, as it is generally against the ISPs ToS to do such on residential service lines. This is why I personally rent a VPS and have a wireguard VPN setup to host from the VPN, which is basically just a roll your own version of Tailscale using any VPS provider. This way you don't need to expose anything via your ISPs router/WAN and they can't see what you are sending or which ports you are sending on (other than the encrypted VPN traffic to your VPS of course).

I use my own router with DD-WRT in-between the ISPs router/modem and my LAN, and use a different subnet. I haven't had any issues with this myself, and my router just sees the ISP router/modem as the WAN.
