When you push something you push the atoms in the thing. This in turn pushes the adjacent atoms, when push the adjacent atoms all the way down the line. Very much like pushing water in the bathtub, it ripples down the line. The speed at which atoms propogate this ripple is the speed of sound. In air this is roughly 700mph, but as the substance gets harder* it gets faster. For example, aluminum and steel it is about 11,000mph. That’s why there’s a movie trope about putting your ear to the railroad line to hear the train.

If you are talking about something magically hard then I suppose the speed of sound in that material could approach the speed of light, but still not surpass it. Nothing with mass may travel the speed of light, not even an electron, let alone nuclei.

The best moments of my life have mostly been fleeting and mostly inconsequential. The worst moments have mostly had long term consequences.

I didn’t know they had inport taxes on desktops. Thanks for the heads up.

In my experience, typically import taxes are there to try and encourage buying local. Does New Zealand manufacturer their own electronics, or is this import tax just a way to levy money? Or is it to reduce environmental impact?

I have a bit of an exhibitionist kink. If I thought I could make more money then I currently do, I totally would.

Spending and consumning less could help more. Espicially gas and meat.

I get the spirit here but not sure I agree that it MUST be true mathematically.

A full time job is 32+ hours a week. Even if I use the American 40, that’s still only 23% of the week not counting vacation or holiday.

Most people don’t get more then 8 hours off sleep a night. That’s 1/3 the day. 43% of the week for everything else.

That’s enough time for you to do something more than sleep or work. Then count in time for vacation and holiday and if you don’t sleep eight hours every night. And if you do stuff at work that isn’t necessarily in your job title.

Due to my meds I can only sleep 4-5 hours a night.

My city is nestled between a rain forrest and lots of natural springs. If we put our water through the normal cleaning process it would come out dirtier then it went it. We also have a few damned lakes we are having to release water from because we got so much damned rain this past winter.

We have a flat rate we pay for water, sewage, recycling, and garbage pickup and are only charged more if we use a certain amount of water. Mostly just people who water their yard or have a personal pool have to pay the higher fee.

I kept having to change meds because different ones didn’t work. One doc got me genetic testing which cost me about $15.

It was folic acid for me. Turns out me and my family don’t get the full affect of vitamins or medicines. After some genetic testing we are all taking it and are all feeling a lot better and our meds are actually working. It’s nuts how simple it was to turn us all around.

I stopped drinking alcohol and soda and drastically cut down my milkshake consumption. I’ve lost 50 pounds in the past year and still going down.

Sounds like you’ll want a bambulabs or AnkerMate

This article was incredibly insightful for me. Thank you for sharing.

Connect it to a DAV server and you dont have to learn a new software.

Thanks everybody for the feedback!

I did purchase a cloud plan from joplin directly, and it worked with all my devices instantly, no fuss.

Linode had advertised a “one-click” solution to get NextCloud up and running, but it was far from it. A couple folks linked a GitHub page with a list of NextCloud providers and I decided on Cloudamo, and that was way more up my alley then Linode. No ssh, no console, no installs, just easy GUI. I am just waiting on the nameserver change and then hopefully I am good to go there.

It sounds like hosting my own email is not a good idea. I already have a proton account that I am using for email. I tried using it for File storage, but it has been lacking, and others have been unable to view or download what I share with them. Does anyone have an opinion on if Skiff is better enough to switch over? Could Skiff pages replace Joplin? Someone mentioned lack of security with NextCloud. Would you recommend Skiff Drive over it?

I had never heard of mailbox.org before. Why might you recommend it over the others?

I will DM some of you for some advice on my local setup.
