I’m probably just stupid.

Yeah that’s what’s going to happen with the main blog.

Forgejo action > static HTML site > Cloudflared tunnel

This separate idea is to have a Lemmy instance to host pictures and federate the blogs comment system so people ideally won’t have to sign in or make an account to comment.

From the inside he looks like a republican.

But that’s how its been for a while. This years Dem is last decades Rep.

I think the problem you’re running into is that Valve isn’t doing nothing with that pay.

Like valve is actively making my gaming experience better by developing cheap hardware and a good system for gaming on Linux.

All the games I’ve ever bought, regardless of if they still sell them are in my library.

My save files are cloud synced for free.

I as the end user am having a good time.

I also have a sunk cost thing going on. I’ve been trying to buy and play more GOG games but I just have so much that works already on Linux without any work that it’s hard to justify the tinker time to get it working otherwise.

They provide such a good service I think we’ve all forgotten about the children casinos for CSGO2 skins, but even that they’re fixing (kinda).

Maybe its just nice to not be mad about something. Like its just video games, I don’t really care if Valve has a monopoly on that since 1) Experience is good 2) they’re not trying to have like a monopoly on water or something important. Bad take maybe, but there’s enough going on that I just don’t know if I could make myself care that valve is like 90% of videogame sales. Or whatever it is.

Chinese and Russian agents keep intercepting them because they wanna see him do it

Personally, I view it as propaganda still, but I don’t view propaganda as bad inherently.

Propaganda to me is just an organized effort to persuade a larger audience of people politically. Its only bad if the aims are harmful unjustly.

So people organizing a take over to reiterate “No fucking Nazis!” Is a propaganda campaign, but its based.

Societal collapse? No gold won’t save you. Tools and how to use them will.

Maybe during hyperinflation though.

Gods not a terrible investment but it doesn’t have a short term ROI just a REALLY long term one.

I hate Bitcoin but its probably a better investment (and just as useful) than gold.

I’m a fudd though and ONLY buy stable stocks that yield reliable dividends though. ETFs, S&P stuff.

There’s a few options now, but you can get Intel N100 ITX boards Like this one from ASUS with a soldered on N100 CPU for the cost of a normal motherboard.

If its just a NAS, and I do recommend having a separate Just a NAS, that CPU fucks hard.

I actually just want them to make proton drive work on Linux. That’s all I need.

I don’t have pride in my government or its actions.

It was actively causing a lot of harm for most of its existence and is now turbo charging its ability to enshittify the world.

The LEAST I can do is make it clear we’re not all in support of this shit.

Love the country and people though. Lots of cool forests to roam and lots of people who don’t suck.

Another one I didn’t know is gay.

Props to msm for not making it a big deal

Odd way to learn altman is gay.

Kinda shocked I’ve never seen a “worlds richest gay man!” Headline. That feels like low hanging fru-

Not gonna lie. Had me until the Cucker Tarlson and Zodiac Killer cameo.

The only thing I hate more than a leftist news channel using conspiracy theorist language in a 3 hour video

Is copy pasted AI break downs.

You want me to watch this but you didn’t even bother to give me your own breakdown?

Is this a not account?

He’s a libertarian who is, self admittedly, hard to work with. He’s also petty and a pedant.

Great for right to repair and digital sovereignty, but there’s a lot more arguably real issues in the world than making sure my tech is upgradable. Like I’m pretty sure he talk about supporting RFK Jr in 24 [citation needed]'. I don’t follow him as closely since he made a 20 minute video trying to argue that AOC is wrong about there being no such thing as unskilled labor by explaining the exact point.

I really don’t wanna know his thoughts on trans rights or the mass racist deportations.

And if you just want a NAS? It is really hard to go wrong with a 4 bay NAS from one of the reputable vendors (which may just be ugreen at this point?) as those tend to still come out cheaper than building it yourself and 4 disks means you can either play with fire with RAID5 or not be stupid and do RAID1.

Actually ASUS started to sell N100 motherboards with the CPU soldered on for $120

That plus a jonsbo N2 or N3, a few extra pieces, and its a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Ugreen options. Sure it will probably run Truenas instead of Ugreens custom truenas or whatever its built on, but that extra $300 is another 24TB hard drive or a HexOS lifetime subscription.

There’s also always the classic buy an old mid sized tower for $100 and slap two massive hard drives in it

I knew a guy who did actually make method in his apartment bathtub.

It was in part to make clean up easier and also had ventilation!

Although that guys was an odd duck and chemistry genius. He’s a PHd student now and was actually making them meth so he could try meth he “trusted”

I doubt your average method manufacturer cares that much about safety though.

To be fair, IF tumblr had added the tipping feature while porn was huge on the site, it might have became Onlyfans.

OF wasn’t always a porn site. It was trying to be a Patron that allowed adult content, but it became just a porn site.

I argue something similar would have happened to tumblr

I checked for you and good news!
