Specifically, how do I safely and properly clean up the '/lemmy/magick/' folder? Mine contains 44,259 files taking 405GiB in total. That is the vast majority of my humble server's 466GiB capacity. I am the only user on my instance so I don't know their source.

UPDATE: the battery fire obviously didn't help, but according to new reporting it turns out that the Cybertruck really did trap the victims inside.

This accident could be a scene in a horror movie.

I'm not a Tesla fan by any measure, but I edited the headline for this post. The original headline made it seem like a specific feature of the Cybertruck trapped the victims, but then the article explains it was really that the battery was burning so fiercely that the police just couldn't free them. The deadly feature of the accident was the lithium battery, which is common to many makes and manufacturers of EVs.

What if there was a health tracking device that you swallow?

Smart watches and fitness bands can be cumbersome and unstylish. Instead of wearing one of these devices, why not put them in an ingestible package? From inside of you, it could probably track more health metrics than from a wrist worn platform. When it gets to the end of your digestive track, you would just take a seat on a toilet equipped with an automatic cleaning and recovery module. Or, all of the devices could be collected for refurbishment at the water treatment plant.

"It does suck, because everybody kind of makes fun of the Cybertruck. To the outside person, it's kind of weird, it's ugly, whatever. Once you actually get in it, drive it, you realize it's pretty frickin' cool," he says. "It's kind of been sad, because I've been trying to prove to people that it's a really awesome truck that's not falling apart, and then mine starts to fall apart, so it's just... Yeah, it's kind of unfortunate and sad."

Just get rid of the charging stations. It's ridiculous that EV owners should expect to charge their cars anywhere but at home or at work.

Submitting this one again in black and white. Sometimes I have trouble deciding if I prefer a given photo in color or not.

A little bit of good news to learn that the Silk Road founder has been pardoned. In spite of his weirdo libertarian supporters, he did not deserve two life sentences plus 40 years.
