The logic train has left the station in the US judicial system.

I’m not stunned by anything the orange turd does, I was paying attention the last eight years. Just making me madder and madder.

Yes. And they know this and they are actively dividing us and driving us apart and to each other’s throats. Until people realize the whole system is stacked against them we will be stuck like this. As long as we consume their media and stay zombies, it’s only going to get worse and more vitriolic.

I, for one, will be teaching my daughters how to handle a knife and how to castrate.

Don’t deal with them. Walk away. You’re allowed to be mad at your parents for electing a felon dictator. You’re allowed to hate them and not talk to them again. That’s their loss, and you don’t need such toxic people in your life.

I thought whisper was hallucinating huge chunks of text in that medical transcription app. Is it more reliable with smaller chunks?

Was thinking the same thing. Will get some veterans out of this that will be able to pass down new/different tactics and strategies.

I don’t see why extreme wealth isn’t classified as a mental illness like hoarding.

I did this a few years ago with a stack of pi 4s connected to a four port PoE switch. One was an openWRT router, one was a plex server connected to some spinning discs via usb, and I had another you could plug an hdmi cable into and use to view the media. I eventually found out I could host the whole thing on a single pi, but it was still a fun project. Could probably do it all on a pi 5 with an nvme hat no problem. Might look into that when I get the spare tinkering money.

If your main goal is a monero node/mining, start with AMD 3000 series processors, 3700x is a good place to start, and build a used system. If it’s just a node, any SoC will work with enough storage. A few months of a VPS could cost the same as buying your own hardware, that and you own the hardware and data instead of some corporation.

Everything runs in a docker container, so you will probably want to wrap your head around that first thing. Most people start with portainer or dockge for easy docker management and learning with a gui, although learning everything through the command line has its merits as well.

I would get a raspberry pi or an old NUC and just dive right into figuring out how to run the monero node. I believe the monero project maintains docker images. The monero communities are super helpful and nice, and so are the self hosted communities, if you hit a snag or don’t understand something.

If you use WireGuard for local access, I don’t think you need to open any port on your firewall, unless you are sharing your plex with other people that do not have access via WireGuard. But I know just enough to get me in trouble, so I’m sure I’ll be corrected on this.

Which is why I don’t fly in a Boeing.

A duck duck go search of “Cancun” and “kidnapping” would argue against this.

I made a joke about optics, and people get offended.

let’s build AI data centers with our last breath, because we are already fucked

Paraphrasing ex-google ceo

“Come vacation in Mexico! If you don’t leave your hotel, you’ll be perfectly safe!”

Reliability of connection to the drives, especially during unscheduled power cycles. USB is known for random drops, or not picking the drive up before all your other services have started, and can cause the need for extra troubleshooting. Can run fine… or it could not. This is in reference to storage drives, not OS drives.

Trunas with Tailscale/headscale/NetBird as far as software and security. As far as hardware, you want storage that is not attached via usb. Either an off the shelf nas solution or a diy nas would work. There are a few YouTubers that touched on this, hardware haven and raidowl I think.

Are we learning German now?

Either number munchers or odels lake on the Apple IIe in my grandmom’s house.
