Especially when I hear things like “They/she didn’t ‘earn’ my vote” … like stop lying to yourself and others. You’re a racist piece of shit who couldn’t stomach having a black woman as president. So you’re trying to hide it. We all can see it, just put on your red cap or white hood and go join the others…

Why? And what would be a replacement for it?

Yeap! About 15 million of them voted by not voting 😤

They were also too scared to vote too. About 15 million of them decided not to vote this time around. 😩

Didn’t work at all for me. Tried it when stimulants were nearly impossible to get. I gave it a few months too. When I was finally able to stimulants again I was able to get back on track with things. That being said I’ve heard for some people it’s worked well. Though no one I know in person has found that to be the case, so YMMV

Restic, it has native S3 compatibility and when you combine with something like B2 it makes amazing offsite storage so you can enjoy the tried and true 3-2-1 backup strategy.

Also fedora magazine did a few posts on setting it up with systemd that makes it SUPER EASY to get going if you need a guide.

I have an ansible role that configures it on everyone’s laptops so that they have local, NAS, and remote, B2, backup locations.

Works like a charm for the past 8+ years.

For similar reasons that’s why chewing is important too.

MacOS, nearly everyone who does anything with development or ops is using a MacBook. Though lately more “normal” employees have been getting MacBooks too.

Headphones as a reasonable accommodation for a disability eg ADHD/Autism/etc might be a good option if it applies to you

The OP is in the middle, the reply is is at the bottom, and the OP’s reply to that response is at the top.

It’s kind of surprising he’s not…

I’m never gonna give up on quite space… well played btw

Depends on the state. Most states from my understanding work like this:

Threatening to throw a rock and/or actually throwing it is assault. When / If the rock hits them then that’s battery.

So in this case the threat of violence is the assault. Had he actually made contact then it would have been battery too.

Because we Americans are easily swayed by propaganda, unfortunately.

In the HAM Radio world we use them. But we also use our own infrastructure. I have mine set to let me know when something happens that needs my attention asap. Only works around my stuff or other HAMs that have stuff tied into our system. So not useful outside narrow circumstances.

Because it’s good for society as a whole? We already do similar things like mandate contraceptives converged under insurance. Plus we also fund things via taxes eg schools, Medicare, etc.

I hope they were most excellent to each other

Waaaaay better.

Restic allows you to make dedupe snapshots of your data. Everything is there and it’s damn hard to loose anything. I use backblaze b2 as my long term end point / offsite… some will use AWS glacier. But you don’t have to use any cloud services. You can just have a restic repository on some external drives. That’s what I use for my second copy of things. I also will do an annual backup to a hard disk that I leave with a friend for a second offsite copy.

I’ve been backing up all of my stuff like this for years now. I used to use BORG which is another great tool. But restic is more flexible with allowing multiple systems to use a single repository and has native support for things like B2 that BORG doesn’t.

We also use restic to backup control nodes for some of supercomputing clusters I manage. It’s that rock solid imho.

Yeah that was my thoughts too. It’s not like it can’t be bypassed but it’s not “easy.” This is kinda how I see it going for commercial 3D printers. It’s not a bad thing either. I’ve always been a fan of making people earn dangerous knowledge & skills. Even in fictional universes like Star Trek there’s restrictions on using a replicator to make weapons.

So it’s not unreasonable, imho, to put some kind of guard rails up that force people to actively bypass restrictions in making weapons.

The trick will be telling the difference between making a nerf gun, action figure guns, and an actual weapon. That I don’t see being possible at this time. Too many edge cases that don’t neatly fit.

This is why you don’t even answer the door. If you do don’t open it and tell them to go fornicate themselves with a rusty iron rod 😡
