AI generated YouTube channels are already a thing and bring in millions of views.

Lemmy and Mastodon technically communicate on the same protocol, but they don’t currently communicate with each other in any meaningful way. Possibly in the future, but probably not imo.

Matris does not use E2E encryption for most channels. Its primary draw is federation, not security or anonymity.

I’m going to set the fallback thumbnail to the original instead of a random thumbnail. The randomly generated thumbnails are too out of context to be useful.

Software doesn’t stop working. Up to date software becomes so slow on obsolete hardware it makes you pull your hair out trying to use it.

I was able to buy some R-410a on eBay when I installed mine a couple years ago. Looking again, I don’t see any more listed.

The tools weren’t too expensive. I wasn’t able to buy lineset covers locally, and I’m sure I paid a little premium buying them online.

I wasn’t able to do a high pressure leak test because I was only able to get a low pressure nitrogen regulator. I ended up tearing my hair out for months because the system barely worked because there was a leak I didn’t find until I noticed oil on a fitting.

Having a recovery pump and cylinder would be invaluable for troubleshooting leaks. But they’re so expensive.
