Impeachment has lost all meaning. Trump has been impeached multiple times but remains in office. Trump loyalists in congress prevented him from seeing any consequences for those impeachments and block new impeachments. Unless something changes, the only way Hegseth is leaving is if Trump decides to remove him.

Are you looking for a VPN or are you looking for an IPv6 tunnel broker like Hurricane Electric?

Does investment fraud benefit businesses? Businesses are investors too.

Who’s on first joke names can’t be good for SEO.

An immutable distro… like NixOS? Or do you mean your root filesystem is immutable? NixOS can do that too. You could normally mount your nix store as readonly and remount rw during updates if you really care about filesystem immutability, or use some snapshot system if you’re paranoid about adding new files to the store corrupting other files already in the store during an update.

The nixpkgs VM creation module, which I’ve never seen documentation for, has a mode where it generates a kernel, initrd, kernel command line, and erofs image containing a prepopulated /nix directory and that’s enough to boot the VM.

Ansible is disappointing as an IAC tool. It’s good for doing things, but it’s not good for converging systems to a desired state. Too often you end up with playbooks that are not idempotent or rely on something that was done during a previous execution of the playbook or just don’t do something that was done by a previous version, and then unless you are constantly recreating your systems you won’t notice until it’s a problem and you can’t get your system back.

That’s what I’m saying. If you signed up to defend and then got assigned to invade DC, getting shot at in DC isn’t what you signed up for.

People don’t join the national guard to invade somewhere and get shot at. The national guard is supposed to be protecting people at home.

Most updates are a waste of time on my phone. Open a streaming media player for a closed streaming service and before it let’s you watch anything it reminds you that you can spend a minute or two updating to a new version indistinguishable from the o/d version. Who knows what they’re changing because the attack surface is basically nonexistent and bugs aren’t being fixed.

Would Wine be better with Microsoft working on it? The frequency and severity of regressions in Windows has been increasing for years now. Maybe for Wine to be a more accurate representation of Windows 11 it needs more bugs and less functionality. The Windows team is good at that.

As if older memes were all meaningful. There’s nothing wrong with 6 7 itself. What’s 9 + 10?

You can host a Proton mail bridge to use different apps running on different machines, including phones.

Self hosting e-mail, particularly SMTP, will likely require a static IP from a reputable provider. Mail servers may reject incoming mail based on the reputation of the sending server. You can avoid this by relaying through another SMTP server and configuring your DNS rules to allow that server to send mail on your behalf, but that’s not really self hosting anymore.

This is a states’ rights issue: the right of the state to do what is convenient for the states’ rights party.

The article suggests the opposite: population decline in rural areas allows the bears to spread out and get closer to populated areas.

A dystopia that Elon Musk wants to import from China where one company controls everything you do via an app on your phone.

You can use OpenEBS to provision and manage LVM volumes. Host path requires you to manually manage the host paths.

That sounds like build automation. You can use some Git forge software.

America is already working on solving that permafrost problem.

If wars kept presidents in office, presidents would only leave office voluntarily or through old age. The US is always at war.

It’s the natural progression of subreddit simulator. Somebody heard about dead internet theory and had to make it a reality.

Unfortunately, if you use either of these methods to install Windows 11, you will wind up with Windows 11. You will eventually regret it.
