I should probably try going back to it. Saw the first episode and never went back to it.

Dude, they don’t even need the Internet anymore. They just tell lies wherever. Tell them enough and they stop being lies. That’s how it works, right? If enough people believe the lie, it becomes the truth.

Trash is a great place to start. There was another guy I found helpful, too. Dr Frankenstein, I think? Also, I can’t remember where I found the swag write-up I used for my current setup, but swag/dockerproxy are awesome. No open ports on the router, and automatic subdomain/SSL setup w/ Cloudlfare by adding 1 label to the compose file.

Only 2 notes I have about Trash guides are:

1. Include some kind of ingest directory for qbittorrent. Helpful when you want to d/l a torrent that’s not managed by one of the arrs. Just save it there and thy will be done!
2. Pay close attention to the quality settings. Most don’t have a fallback quality. So if you say you want 4k for movies, it will often fail to find something, especially if it’s older, and you have to go see why, change the quality to 1080, etc. Instead, use the quality guide to understand how it works, and set up what you want with appropriate fallback. For example, I prefer to get 720p for TV. Especially w/ long running shows they can take up A LOT of space, even at 1080! BUT sometimes 720 just isn’t available. 1080 is usually the first thing that comes out, so I add 1080 as second choice. For older shows, I add DVD quality as third choice, HDTV next, and 480p last (probably have those last two backwards). This way, it will pretty much always get something decent, and if the quality I want is ever released, I have it configured to continually search. Looking over the Trash guides definitely helped me dial this in, but I’m not using the stock version of any of their presets.

One thing I need to figure out is identifying shows that have hearing disabled tracks as their default/only. I’ve been watching Taskmaster, and lots of the episodes in more recent seasons have the descriptive voice-over that’s annoying to me since I don’t need it.

A war against people they don’t like. They’ve actually been campaigning on it since Obama’s first term!

I want to say Dreams of Code (or his other channel Dreams of Autonomy?) did a video on VOS setup where he secured the connection between VPS and home. I think he used Tailscale. I’ll see if I can find the video.

You should be sainted.

What really gets me is someone thinks Trump backing Cuomo will help him win!

I also fear that if Mamdani wins, members of both parties will stonewall his efforts to make him as ineffective as they can. I hope it backfires on them, but I don’t have much faith in the memory of the average voter.

I think Rage Against the Machine should’ve just avoided the studio altogether. They were so good live. Killing in the Name is great.

Haven’t seems Muse since Black Holes, but they were also very good live.

It’s a shitty way of writing it, approved by a coward of an editor more focused on ad space within an article. The more appropriate, and succinct, way of saying it would be, “Before being re-elected, the president was convicted of assaulting the writer at the clothing store in the mid-1990s. The conviction was upheld on appeal, and she successfully sued him again for defamatory comments made after the first conviction.”

Not until he’s dead. Maybe.

At this point, he needs to find a law firm that’s not too busy gargling Trump’s balls to represent him in a counter suit for 10 billion for defamation, harassment, and mental duress of his family. The number should be ludicrously high to mirror Trump’s own tactics.

If I were him, I would also be looking around for places to seek asylum as a political refugee. Would be awesome as Hell if Canada took him.

It’s an incentive US employers offer in lieu of additional pay or employee rights. One that the employee still has to pay for. When nearing middle age, It’s just generally cheaper than going without. It relies on healthy young people, who mostly don’t really need it beyond regular cleanings/check-ups, signing up to help cover the costs of older workers.

Access to affordable healthcare is mostly dependent on decent employment. Many people who are employed, many with more than one job, don’t get health insurance. If you don’t have healthcare, it’s simply not affordable unless you’re quite wealthy. I’ve seen hospital bills that listed aspirin at $250 apiece.

The poster who mentioned Animal Farm got allegory pretty well.

Also, I kind of overdid it. Analogies really just show synonymous relationships. That they can help someone understand a relationship is superfluous.

Since I haven’t seen it yet, an analogy describes how a comparison you may not be familiar with relates to one you probably are. For example: lamb is to sheep as puppy is to dog. Or murder is to crows like pack is to wolves.

It has nothing to do with crime. Both Trump, and Pritzker know it. I’m surprised Pritzker didn’t call it out in the interview.

Cool. More positions to fill with comically (horrifyingly) under-qualified people.

So far, this is the most prescient comment to me. If the low-rate dictator currently running the US allows people like Thiel to do whatever they want, that’s probably where we are headed.

Also, props for “Nerd-reich”

It’s a throwaway address I use for online vendors. Most of those get an addy.io address nowadays, but Reddit still goes to the original address.

TL;DR: I’m aware, thanks.

AFAIK, it actually doesn’t require modification of the original file at all. It can be done with a metadata change in a sidecar file.
