My so called blue state of California just voted against minimum wage increase, against rent control, against banning slavery, and for increasing the war on drugs. At least this time we narrowly voted to approve gay marriage (unlike last time where we banned it)

“It never happened to me personally so it must not be real” — this is the mindset that conservatives follow that leads to so much cruelty in the world

How often are you people screwing things up so badly that your servers aren’t reachable over the network and require keyboard/monitor access? This is basically only ever once for me for the initial OS install, and even then that can be automated away if I had to do it more than once every couple years

If anything I would expect vpn exit points to be located in higher density areas where presumably internet connectivity is cheaper, and higher density areas tend to be more liberal

That’s like saying if you support gay rights protestors, you have to also support nazi protestors, or you’re being hypocritical. You’re looking at things on the wrong axis.

If this is only “decent” waffles, what mix do you recommend for excellent waffles?

220TB in 10 years on a 250GB disk means you are doing the equivalent of rewriting the entire disk every 4 days or so for 10 years

Home Assistant hates it if you install anything else on your server besides Home Assistant. Don’t even think about running other docker containers besides HA or you’ll get persistent nags and it’ll prevent you from updating without doing workarounds

Audacity is not dead, people were just upset that they added automated update checking and crash reporting

The point of freeways is to go as fast as possible. There’s no houses or kids playing on them. Why would we try any kind of traffic calming (aka slowing) on them? That’s probably why you can’t find any

Ok but you could also see how much they are paying other people which I feel like would even things out.

“We see you currently make 50k, so we’re gonna offer you 60k”

“I see you are paying everyone else 80k for the same job, so I won’t take any less”

Right, and as current US politics shows us, pandering to the racists is a winning marketing strategy

PCIe 2 x4 is the same speed as PCIe 3 x2, no?
