  • "I know millions of people use their service because it's the only real option they have, but because it's associated with this one guy I don't like, they can all eat a dick!"

  • Insane that it wasn't, "Oh, you're trying to blackmail our government? Here, have an airstrike." TBH

  • Thing is, the Senate wasn't supposed to be elected by the people as that's the states' reps. The people's reps are the House.

    Changing that screwed things up, too. It was originally set up so that smaller states couldn't have their wishes completely drowned out by the more populous ones.

    We also have lost sight of the fact that the president wasn't supposed to be elected by the people, but by their representation, similar to how a prime minister works in many Euro nations.

    The nation was designed to be controlled bottom up, with the most control being the people themselves, then their states, and finally the feds, who while they had the overall lead, only had a few enumerated powers, and EVERYTHING else was to be by the state or lower level. Hell, that's the entire point of the 10th.

    But we've corrupted the entire thing.

  • There are more guns than people in the US, and contrary to belief, they're not all owned by the magagotts....

    What I find most disturbing about the Republican party is how quickly they shift from "small government is good" to "we need more government so we can enact our brand of authoritarianism! But those guys over there? They're the big government ones!"

    Which is nuts, because you can't have an authoritarian government without a government large enough to enforce said authority!

    I'm at the point where I am leaning more and more into the "just burn it all down and start over" side of things.

  • Ok. My HL-3170CDW color laser was on sale for like $160 when I got it almost 10 years ago. Still on the original oem toner and drums, and just printed off a bunch of stuff in color last week.

  • I have a HL3170CDW color laser. It was on sale for under $200 at the time.

  • Yeah we have a camera pointed at our driveway from our garage door. It isn't close enough to the road to trigger movement from people walking or driving by.

    But if they come inside the fence it'll pick em up.

    Also have a couple of cameras watching other random parts of the yard. We live on just under 2 acres, and it's all enclosed in chain link fencing. Next to us is an automotive maintenance shop owned by a buy here pay here lot a few miles closer to town, and they don't always hire the most trustworthy individuals to work on cars....

  • Because of porch pirates.

  • Get Oracle cloud free VPS. Create a VPN connection from your server to it.

    Set up port forwarding from your VPS to your server. Connect to your server using your vps' IPv4 address.

    Done.

    Works better than a proxy, for sure.

  • Not really. Look up Ford Bluecruise. Difference is, Ford wasn't out there for years promising to have it all perfected in an unreasonably short timeframe. They just quietly worked on it until they felt it was ready. THEN they announced it.

  • Both? Both. Both is good.

  • I have just shy of 8TB of data on my home file server.

    That's not including my NVR (for security cameras) which has a single 6TB SATA drive sitting around 40% capacity.

  • I had a single red 2TB in an old tivo roamio for almost a decade.

    Pulled out this weekend, and finally tested it. Failed.

    I was planning to move my 1.5T music collection to it. Glad I tested it first, lol.

  • I know. Isn't great? When there's no party in true "control" then whoever wants to think it's the other guy's fault can easily do so.

    I was already an adult in 1996. It was definitely a bipartisan thing. Despite many tech insiders warning how it would cause the exact opposite of what it was intended to do, Clinton didn't just sign it. He and Al Gore, for years, claimed it as their own.

    Hell, it was this exact act Al Gore was referring to when he claimed he "invented" the Internet.

  • My folks had a tape backup system in the late 1990s. It used 250MB tapes.

    They've been around for decades.

  • No, but I have downloaded yours.

  • zfs list shows datasets.

    zpool list shows pools.

    mirror is a type of pool.

  • Or T-Mobile.
