There’s nothing to scale. DNS servers are just an address book. There’s only 200 million entries active and visited. 1.1b entries otherwise, which; for a computer isn’t a lot.

DNS servers replicate down-stream, and the root servers maintain authority. A local SQLite file could handle this easily, and you could always run your own DNS server locally if you wanted to. But there has to be a central authority. That’s why you can have any TLD you want – you run your own DNS. But since nobody sees you as an authority, they won’t be using your DNS.

How is the internet supposed to work if we don’t agree on where every site goes? How are you supposed to decentralize a central agreement?

You can use whatever top level domain you want, you just have to convince everyone in the world to use your Root servers instead of ICANN, which ain’t gonna happen. Tor has the .onion TLD, etc. There are no restrictions here. They’re more like…agreements.

Carbon sequestration is such a fucking scam. I hate that all these projects are popping up because they know it’s easy money. Only thing it costs is our planet.

If this is the case than anything beyond a perfect clone is a disability. Shorter than 6’ as a man? Disability. Flat chest as a woman? Disability. Eyes too far apart? Disability.

I have ADHD and I’ve managed life pretty fine, because when I was growing up I was just ‘energetic’. I managed to control my issues over time. Granted – I’m not as severe as some cases; but I think the severity is what should be considered the disease, not the ADHD itself.

It’s so terrible that people are led to believe that their death is worth so much. This poor man lost his life, literally the most precious gift given to you, because he believed that losing it in protest would maybe make a change.

But the sad reality of it, is that he’ll be forgotten and ignored like so many others. He could have made more impact by living.

RIP “are you waiting to receive my limp penis?” guy. He died a couple of months ago.

My windows installs (Win 10 IoT Edition) just boot directly to desktop. Dunno what you’ve borked there.

The thing is, there’s “Dems” and then there are “Dems™”.

Dems™ are the Democratic National Committee, and they are so fucking out of touch with reality it’s not even funny any longer. There are plenty of Democrats that are simply captured by Dems™ and really just get hamstrung by their idiocy.

I mean, I think a badge titled Normal would have been just fine.

This shit is absolutely atrocious and shows how far we’ve fallen.

Microsoft almost got broken up as a company over simply BUNDLING a browser. Now they’re actively hijacking other installs to put big warnings up and redirecting to theirs. It’s absolutely bonkers this is allowed.

So, I migrated to 5.x and I don’t know if it was just me, or a change in the WebUI or something, but Sonarr stopped wanting to pull files in. I’ve been holding out on the Sonarr upgrade because last I looked at it, it wouldn’t auto-migrate you over, etc.

But when I went to upgrade it - it said that now auto-migrates, and it does. However, the old migrated rules looked kinda dirty, so I was panicking a little. The imported/converted stuff all worked, mind you, I just didn’t like how they looked. In the end, I ended up really really liking the new Sonarr system, though I did have to ask an LLM how to format some new regex.

You should REALLY update…

Are you hard-linking it to somewhere else on the drive via any kind of automation?

For example, Sonarr can hard-link files to the directories they belong in, so that Qbit can continue seeding. If you then delete/remove the torrent/files – then the hard link would still be there.

Well that’s plenty of proof that you didn’t read anything about Viktor Orban at all. There was nothing about my previous reply that had anything to do with biden - not a single parallel at all. In fact, nobody of note has ever made any similar claim about Biden whatsoever. Thanks for taking the mask off. Have a great day.

Look up Viktor Orban and how he successfully dismantled Democracy in Hungary. The plan has already been laid out, and it’s being followed precisely.

Seriously – the parallels in that journey are shockingly similar.

The US is as weak as ever as we have a stacked system due to Republicans following the same playbook, and slowly tipping the scales over the time using gerrymandering and whatever they can manage to pull off, any time they can manage to pull it off. We’re seeing less and less people responsible for more and more power. Our supreme court has ruled that the president is immune from prosecution, etc.

There are plenty of additional examples, but the only way you’re arguing what you’re arguing is if you haven’t been paying attention. If you want more, feel free to look up Project 2025

Except people aren’t choosing the lesser of 2 evils every time. If they did, it would pass back across that “Evil” line. That’s literally the nature of it.

Oligarchy.

It’s a play on the joke “There are 3 genders, male, female, and political”
