Doubt, trump is famous for refusing to read intelligence briefings. He just wants to surround himself with sycophants.

This does sound like it could be a liability issue if not done correctly

Also, basically my codebase at work.

The self hosted community is probably the worst place you could ask about something while ruling out “privacy and tinkering”. Those words might as well be the motto here.

That is coincidentally exactly what meta is arguing in their lawsuit.

“NO PUPPET NO PUPPET YOU’RE THE PUPPET”

I’ve only lived with stucco all my life, but in tackling unknown home improvement projects I’ve found Google lens to be a lifesaver to learn what all the pieces parts I’m dealing with are called.

There really is a bit of a catch-22 in my book that’s centered completely around self confidence. If you are proud of who you are, if you are living up to your ideals, you are simultaneously much more attractive to others, and at the same time you realize that you don’t need others - but they sure are the cherry on top.

This was a pivotal video about “nice guys” I watched growing up that imo everyone should watch.

Favorite line:

This is not a transaction where you walk up to the cashier and pull out your nice bucks and buy sex and romance.

100%. This is just due to the cost of hitting their servers in case you can’t reach your network

Right, but IIRC anyone can go on the plex.tv website and use shared servers due to the “proxy”

I mean yeah, if you spent 5 years of your life pushing the edge of human understanding on a subject, and a shithead tells you to do the science on your research subject, it’s relevant lol

I never said he wasn’t a valid target though. I’m asking what you think what a reasonable time frame a sitting president is expected to be given to fulfill a campaign promise of lowering the nationwide price of a commodity, and if that’s based on precedent.

Holy shit I didn’t see that on the horizon. That’ll be great…

Jokes about the eggs made of gold etc etc

These are all great reasons why egg prices are high, and will continue to be high.

All I’m asking for is precedent for a president to impact nationwide prices in 2 months time. What do you think is a reasonable window after which to assess a presidents impact on pricing of a national commodity?

Subsidize egg prices with all the money he’s supposedly saving?

My understanding is that he’s giving $400 million in direct subsidies to egg farmers, as part of a $1 billion package to USDA to lower the cost of eggs.

I’m as against trump as anyone else, but let’s say your candidate of choice was just put in power a month ago, would you expect new economic policies to have lowered the price of something nationwide? What’s the historical precedent for something like that? Biden releasing strategic reserve of oil comes to mind, and IIRC that didn’t put a dent in prices.

I worry that folks making a big deal out of this at this point in time are effectively being the same as the “I did this” Biden sticker folks, and idk about you but I sure thought they were asshats. Six months down the line, sure, hold him accountable for what he ran for. But idk how much economic impact a president has in two months time.

Louis Rossman, a strong advocate for the right to self-repair, has an extensive, bottom to top guide on self hosting your own services. It starts from introducing what a modem is and what role it plays, and it ends with an entirely self hosted cloud. It comes in article as well as 13 hour video form. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to get started self hosting - it doesn’t just introduce software you should learn, but it also shows you how to configure it.

I finally got link warden up and running, but I’m chasing down some failures on a few websites.

Also realized that me biting the bullet for unlimited bandwidth (screw you Comcast!) means I can run archive team warrior, so that’s been going.

And equally important, how do you do your backups? What system and to where?
