So I can easily get pretty much all of this through kwix directly? That will work. Throw it on my Raid. My media server is badly overworked but I should be able to use any old sbc as a frontend for the archive.

Anybody know where to find an archive of this disk?

It’s all publicly available info, or was. I’ve got a Raid 5 I can throw it on, might come in handy during power outs and such.

I’ve got spare hard drives, and an old Pi and other computers around. No need to spend $189 on this when you can pretty easily DIY. The value is the prepackaged archive.

I see projects like kwix and such, but I don’t immediately see this archive or anything comparable. Haven’t looked into this before.

BTW, if you’re actually worried about the end of the world or whatever, this won’t save you. Make friends with your neighbors and communities. If you don’t have a physical trade, you need to learn one like fixing shit or growing really good weed.

Holiday in Cambodia!

I’m not saying Voice of America is a good thing. I am saying, if you’re a corporation loving far-right politician, Voice of America is a great thing and you certainly don’t shut it down.

Holy fucking shit. How incredibly ignorant. No, really mind blowingly, shooting your own foot, sticking your dick in a hornet’s nest, if the federal government was a person: this would be self-harm.

Voice of America is the main open propaganda arm of the federal government. All those US military bases all over the world broadcast this stuff. Arguably it helps trade and US corps influence foreign populations.

I’m not quite that bad but I definitely prefer green or amber on black terminals. That’s how a command line is ‘supposed’ to look because that’s what I learned on.

Wasn’t it something like Linus really likes penguins?

Woah! Thanks for this, interesting hearing a firsthand account. Very similar to trailer park life in the US, in my experience. Public housing/the projects are also similar but I never spent much time in them, strong racial divide in most of the US between trailer parks and projects.

I’m assuming a fair amount of drugs/addiction, small scale petty crime, and domestic violence? Cookouts and parties? Is there pride in being from a commie block? Is there a culture and music? Also, while I’m blasting you with questions, any chance you know a good documentary or book/article?

Next time family movie night is my pick, I’m introducing them to this. Been forever since I watched it.

Holy shit! This appears to be real and as funny as it seems.

Bot started offering absolution and such.

The fuck is a ‘loke’?

Death by turtle stampede would be a unique way to die.

You have some strange buddies.

Hell of a thing, ain’t it? I remember the tail end of Regan as a child. I come from evangelicals, these are the sort of events I would expect them to freak out about, but instead, they’re willingly along for the ride.

AP telling the same story. Looked like Reuters was, as well, at a quick glance. So I guess this is confirmed.

What a terrible thing.

I started laughing my ass off at this and then my wife wanted to see what was so funny and now I’m not allowed to do this.

Makes me sad.

The most recent research I heard was that human transmission was highly unlikely. It was kind of a big deal and happy news. The experiment involved high prion concentrations and human cells with a long exposure.

A few years ago, there was successful primate transfer, IIRC.

This is something I watch pretty closely.

Best controls are natural predators or heavy hunting to reduce population density.

What denomination, primarily, were you? Did you manage to get anyone out with you? (I was unable.)

Oh, hey. That whole mind expanding thing really isn’t a joke. I look back, sometimes, on who I used to be.

How would you compare it to venison?
