Hey, that’s pretty rad! Way to go! Exciting to see a new system monitor show up! :)

Mueh-heh-heeeh…(Click)…(rubs hands together while it loads)

victims of society

Yeah, they have no idea what this means but they seem to REALLY want to find out.

Thank you. Every single time I read a comment like this, I don’t feel so alone. You get it.

I’m a Christian anarchist myself. There are lots of us scattered believers out there of many philosophies, even in the U.S, who understand that Jesus is love and He is for everyone, and we are called to love even our enemies.

Sadly, it’s harder to find us. We don’t have wealthy benefactors and think-tanks and politicians and mega-stadium churches, where sermons are more akin to conservative feel-good self-help seminars than Bible study.

The Gospel of Christ has been warped and co-opted by the rich and powerful to make them feel good about themselves, and to lure the masses to want to be like them, instead of like Jesus. They want Bibles closed and wallets open.

It’s one of the most ongoing and successful false flag operations in history: The americhristian cult has done so much damage. Indeed, how can one worship Jesus and money? Or a flag?

But we’re still out there trying to just be the best people we can. I appreciate it when people of any belief acknowledge the existence of flawed-but-trying Christians who will gladly ally with you to the death against this cult of hatred and lies.

I always thought of the repeated “Lord” almost to be like, a mocking repetition of those who come running to you for advice or wisdom and then disregard it entirely when you don’t instantly solve all their problems.

Like “Oh yeah sure, you kids come running ‘Dad, dad!’ when you want something, but where are you when I need help in the garage?”

But there could be other interesting explanations. Never really thought of that!

Suddenly tempted to send the image without context to a random phone contact. Just to make their day weird. :D

I see what you mean. Science is a fantastic tool but when leaders just wave it around with vague claims that “experts have done studies that agreed with me.” . . . It always spells trouble.

I see where you’re coming from and agree from that perspective, on the other hand, I feel like it highlights and billboards the stupidity of this regime extremely well.

Like: “Hey we could have a cure for cancer any minute now but no, these dumbnuts are too busy scaring and/or extrajudicially kidnapping people who would better humanity.”

They deleted the original copyright notice which is basically the only requirement of the MIT licence. The software is stolen.

Lol reminds me of a movie…

 [the crew is being told their sweded movies have to be destroyed]

Mr. Rooney: “The FBI Warning is at the beginning of the tape.”

Jerry: “But we erased that!”

– Be Kind, Rewind (2008)

HAHA! I was just trying to explain this to my wife. I was like

“Okay, yes, it DOES help you get stuff done but it’s kinda like casting magic…You need the right intention and materials in front of you, or else it backfires and you end up focusing super hard on the first silly, likely useless thing that grabs your attention, and forget time is still moving…”

Well it’s artificially upscaled, so it’s like the original but appears to be superficially aping its qualities with no actual understanding of the source material.

This is why I spent my highschool years in combat boots. Ankle support, tough soles, the same footwear was great for hiking, shopping, whatever. Inconspicuous if your pant legs cover them. Like $40 at the time. Lasted me beyond school.

Only downside was I lived in a desert so too much time outside would make them really hot. That, and I got a lot of people scuffing them going “HEY ARE THOSE STEEL TOE?!” (they were not)

Meanwhile shoes that fall apart in 3 months had some giant billboard logo so you’d have to keep up with their latest image, I guess. Gross.

Up all night, and all you got to see was a boob

Sometimes a boob who spent the previous night compiling a custom webcam driver. :(

You’re totally right. Without that inner life we’d just be forced into being exactly like our parents because we wouldn’t grow as individuals.

I think the problem is when, hypothetically, that inner life that finds you first is a profit-driven hate-brewing death cult brought to you by an algorithm. Then these people “totally get you” and gives you a “community.”

I miss when those unsupervised inner life communities were mostly around hobbies or games or whatever to escape life drudgery and make real friends. MySpace wasn’t about viral brainwashing campaigns, YouTube was mostly creation for fun’s sake, and even with online games and such, we all knew there was a separation between “the Internet” and “Real Life™”.

Everybody knew not to take the Internet seriously, because it was a place you went to escape everything else. Nothing really mattered on the internet.

I think now people don’t really see a separation. The Internet is real life, in the worst way.

Now so much of it is a minefield of recruitment and manipulation to enlist in culture wars for clicks. There’s labels and lifestyles that act as “funnels” and “pipelines” to increasingly toxic extreme identities that find “belonging” in being captive mindslaves and profit-cattle to any number of “influencers.”

Sure, let’s not try to help them and just fuck them instead.

How society collectively decided to design the Millennial experience lol.

No joke. We went from getting yelled at by old people for problems they caused, to being called old and getting shoved aside by the generation ahead of us, really freaking fast.

I feel like we’ve already been forgotten after we were robbed of opportunity and respect at every turn.

I try to focus my energy towards the good ones. There’s still good people out there. I’ve met many kids that would put the majority of adults to shame with their level of intelligence, maturity, and respect. The odds are so against them though.

How complex is making a roll-your-own NAS?

It really depends on what you want out of it. I personally installed ProxMox on an old gaming machine (DDR3 RAM old lol) and have an Open Media Vault virtual machine running on it with access to my ZFS mirrored pair of storage drives.

Enabling Samba support in Open Media Vault gives you a nice little NAS. I believe it’s okay to install bare metal if you really want to also.

It also has a nice Docker interface, so although I should probably not bundle services together so tightly, it runs things like Jellyfin for media, Paperless NGX for document storage, and NextCloud AIO for a convenient (if slightly resource-hungry) interface.

ProxMox lets me do fun things though, like back up the VMs, spin up virtual machines for PiHole ad blocking and Klipper for controlling my 3D printer.

My most important data gets synced to a subscription to a service called iDrive as my offsite. Pretty affordable for 5TB and my own encryption keys. :)

I want to stress that I’m not an IT professional or anything either. If you’re reasonably comfortable with Linux and understand some basic networking, I’d say at least getting Proxmox and/or Open Media Vault up and running so you can access it on your home network isn’t too hard.

Outside of that, and if you want HTTPS and stuff? There’s lots of guides but I would recommend using TailScale instead of opening any ports to the web.

Sorry if this post was meandering but hope it gave you a little bit to go on! :)
