  • After having some issues with TrueNAS killing containers after updates, I went to Unraid and have never been happier. TrueNAS file sharing permissions also never did make sense to me. I got them to work but never quite grok'd them. Unraid performs exactly like I'd expect. I hand rolled a NAS using Ubuntu way back in the day and didn't have the desire to tinker on the NAS side of things too much.

    On Unraid, I roll a larger xfs array for all of my media and large storage, then I have a two disk ZFS array for my more important documents and pictures. That gets archived up to the xfs array and my cache nvme drives have their own ZFS pool. I don't gain a ton by doing this, it was just fun to set up and I feel reasonably secure with my personal data.

    I also run a smaller, lower powered machine with Proxmox and I run Home Assistant on it. Mostly because of tinkering with hardware support in Home Assistant, I didn't want it messing with my NAS needing restarts and such. But, Unraid is my workhorse. Day in, day out, it does exactly what I suspect with no surprises. I've had drives go bad and need replaced. I've had the whole machine just die and had to build a new machine. Unraid did exactly what I expected and needed every step of the way. The docker support is fantastic and super stable. Running multiples of the exact same container by duplicating and with only different port settings works great. I can't say that for my independent docker installs without a bunch of tinkering on things I couldn't seem to find enough about when I ran into issues.

    I tinker on the things I enjoy. I do not enjoy having an unusable server. The anxiety is actually pretty insane for me. I would pay for Unraid many times over to get this combination of factors.

  • I've spent the last decade as a proxy voice for conscientious objectors and my girlfriend's dad just retired a few years ago as a major general in the national guard. Does that count?

    Edit: The governor threw him a gala event for his retirement and all.

  • Yeah. That's why I mentioned the politically savvy part. A very few seem to get there on just time and merit. Most have the political acumen and ruthlessness to rise through the ranks within a terrible system.

  • The military brass are well aware of the result of them stepping down in protest. These guys are warriors and see themselves as patriots. Many, if not all, are pretty politically savvy as well. If they're not strongly aligned with fascism, they will stoutly defend the Constitution from this idiotic horde and that means keeping their post and making difficult choices if the need arises.

    I promise you, all of these guys have mentally prepared for this moment. Threats foreign and domestic. They know the "domestic" line is the least likely to occur but the most difficult to navigate. And they likely play out scenarios in their heads all the time to be prepared. They're well-read on historical coups and not blind to what is on the line in front of them. It is not uncommon for military leaders to appreciate the benefits of authoritarianism, but when it occurs, historically, it's easily spun as using authoritarianism to protect the country in some way. We can all see the grift. A teenager can logic what these chucklefucks on stage are trying to do. The military leaders are not going to give up their country for anything the Trump administration is selling.

    The administration is full of idiots and headed by a narcissist. This meeting was likely a test. If they thought the military was with them, they'd ramp up project 2025 and try to take control. Seeing that the military isn't fully with them, they'll pivot and try to foment even more fear among the citizens. Get that divide going which they think the military will react to. The military leaders likely will see through that as well. But I also don't think the administration has the support anymore to bring about the civil war they want. There are too many cracks forming in their supporters. They will still try it. They have to. They know the harshest elements of Project 2025 will cause upheaval and dissent. Without the brainwashing, without the military I don't think they can pull it off. But they will still cause a lot of damage before they're stopped.

  • Trump deploys troops to Portland, authorizing ‘full force’ if necessary | The action escalates a campaign to use the U.S. military against Americans that has little modern precedent.

  • He's so badly trying to force a violent reaction. I hope no one gives that reaction until more people are willing to do something about it.

    Edit: I say "he" but I want it clear that I don't believe this is a Trump the person thing. The guy is an absolute moron and is extremely weak-willed. This shit has Stephen Miller written all over it. This is a Trump administration thing. I don't want people to attribute traits to that pathetic little orange loser that aren't his. It makes him seem competent.

  • I'm all for sympathetic treatment. But, isn't this how they promote accountability for others? Maybe this is the only way they learn anything. Otherwise, the next time a fascist is promising to hurt people they don't like, they're just going to trust them and vote then in again. And then we're in a cycle. We've been building to it for decades now. What breaks that cycle? How do we get through to them? We can be better than them by not hunting them down and actively wanting harm. And by making sure they don't starve to death as they lose everything. Some lessons need costs. I don't know for certain that this is the way but compassion seems to come without memory.
