Marketing to children I see. Trying to trap young, impressionable children, in the world of programming in Perl.

Thank you!

When that major drama unfolded with him getting booted then re-hired. It was super fucking obvious that it was all about the money, the data, and the salesmanship He is nothing but a fucking tech-bro. Part Theranos, part Musk, part SBF, part (whatever that pharma asshat was), and all fucking douchebag.

AI is fucking snake oil and an excuse to scrape every bit of data like it’s collecting every skin cell dropping off of you.

$1.5 billion won’t actually get you a whole lot.

Better than nothing though. Considering utilities can do this as cap projects, I feel like this money is better spent on bridges/roads.

Who is going to own the infrastructure when it is complete? Outside of like three main utilities, there are no state owned utilities. (Tennessee, Bonneville, and LCRA, I believe).

They could say anything and we would not know what the real truth was, so of course they would say something that would cast a poor light on Israel…

eh, at this point I don’t give a shit. Fuck Bibi in his genocidal ass.

You are not the sharpest knife in the drawer, huh?

Nope. Would 't mind if Khamenei and Netanyahu both took a .50 cal to the forehead though.

But people like you are just like a bunch of people over here. You just want to force everyone into a pigeonhole that makes you feel better about yourself and your ideology.

People are sheep and easily manipulated. That is what Netanyahu is doing, that is what Khamenei is doing, and are you manipulating or one of the manipulated?

I would be willing to pay an initial setup fee followed by some maintenance fee. I would expect the initial fee to be significant due to a custom setup/requirements. (I am talking just setup, not cost of hardware/ physical installation).

Unique home network with 2 managed switches.

Self hosted security DVR, automated computer backup, photo backup, network drive for document storage and then self hosting a Jellyfin server along with a torrent service.

(I am sweating just thinking about trying to set that up)

Storage will be a RAID setup where I can just upgrade by throwing a new drive into an open slot and replace (as necessary) existing drives by just swapping them out and server automatically handles the data management.

I have a VAGUE idea of what that takes

Maintenance would cover service calls to resolve problems due to security updates/patches, end of life upgrades, normal planned maintenance type of stuff.

User caused issues should be extra :) (i.e. I was just trying to install a Minecraft server)

Couple hundred bucks, at least, for setup. And that seems cheap.

I would pay $10-20 a month for a maintenance fee after an initial setup fee.

I would MUCH rather give my money to an individual sysadmin than a corporate megalith that will use my membership to force an arbitration clause to any future service of theirs I use. Fuck the mouse. Fuck em all. I tried to do it right and that still want enough for them.

I would be happy if I could pay you to just set up and periodically check my setup. I only say that because I would probably want to put together something that cost more than $150. But I am absolutely overwhelmed by what I don’t know. Every tutorial I read gives me more questions than answers.

I just want to self host, share it with a close circle of friends, and keep everyone else’s noses out of my business.

Taiwan made a sarcastic comment.

Essentially calling out their policy of “Territorial Integrity”, they told them to take back land they gave to Russia

Hot take:

China has lost all faith in Russia. Is reorganizing to reflect that.

And maybe is even considering Taiwan’s advice, lol.

Software designed to scrape data and serve ads. Brought to you by a company that used to have the motto, “Don’t be evil”, but is now, “I’d whore my own daughter out, if it would make me money and I thought I could get away with it.”

That is a separate issue. The Age verification law is for viewers. PornHub doesn’t want to store, or be responsible for, your Driver’s License info.

I happen to side with PornHub on this one. It’s a privacy issue, and the age verification is just an initial step in the direction of censorship.

Now verifying identity/ages of the performers, supporting the fight against sex trafficking and the predation of minors, that is worth putting restrictions on PornHub.

I feel like the South Park song, “Kyle’s Mom is a Bitch” should be remade into “Putin is a Bitch”.

Man, you sound like the zen I wish I could harness and feel. I really appreciate your tone and presence.

No. You don’t get frame a statement like that and then walk away from it. You said he gobbled Israel’s knob and now he has to walk back his vile statements.

And now you just doubled down on it. So tell us, how did he “gobble the knob”, and what was Bernie’s vile statement, that he is now walking back?

“…, and then saw his knob gobbling support Israel during this conflict.”

I’m not sure what you mean here. He has been opposing support of Israel for quite some time now.

I’m not sure if anybody DIDN’T support Israel immediately following Hamas’ terror attack, but Israel’s conduct quickly changed some hearts and minds.

I don’t know what his stance was at the beginning of the conflict, but I’m not going to fault him him if he was supporting the victim of a terror attack.

But he has been calling for the U.S. to stop funding Israel’s war for some time now.

Ooh, can I see a TV show, “based on a true story”, where a Romanian Beth Dutton just humiliates and takes land away from rich, elitist assholes, to make up this European Yellowstone?

Edit: Bonus points if they are also played by Kelly Reilly.
