Lots of people would exit the traditional job market, millions would start small private business. Pay would go up both because of the healthcare savings to companies and because people would stop working shit jobs for shit pay just to keep health insurance.

It might also lead to a massive recession as for profit healthcare providers and services last l lay off workers and go bankrupt.

So mixed bag probably good overall for workers, very bad for capitalists. But there would be a massive labor disruption and lots of people would be on the losing side initially.

I would support a transitional system where every say 5 years we lower the age for Medicare access so we gradually ween off the old system and the healthiest most profitable pool stays in the old system the longest.

It still screws over the next generation which I don’t love or think it’s fair but the ACA created a system so entrenched I don’t think there is a way to roll it back without causing pain.

No he is an opportunist mouthpiece willing to say nearly anything for money.

I tried looking around my library and only found one Lem book but I am sure I have more… So I will keep looking.

I have 2 kids so, vomit, poop, blood, mucus, and even breast milk.

Solaris, the new version is decent but it’s a totally different movie and just can’t do the original justice.

Second place for me is girl with the dragon tattoo. The original is just better.

Getting licensed as an electrician.

Nearly any executive assistant is a fixer. Fixers are masters of figuring it out and using connections to make things happen.

Somewhere along the way we stopped holding them accountable.

It probably started with the Nixon pardon and then continued with Reagan who should have actually been held accountable for his treason with the Iran Contra scandals.

It’s just been downhill since and Trump has taken it to a whole new level of corruption and was crimes.

I would love to see Obama held accountable for his drone policies, Biden for is support of genocide, Trump for everything, W. For his war crimes.

Should probably post this in /askMormons.

My unreasonably cheep rates thank you.

Depending on what you want to do, yes this is fine for running VMs on. If you are just spinning up some containers or a lightweight VM to host something its fine.

The only people left on Twitter are toxic they hand created their own hell and the rest of us are not obligated to join them.

Plenty of love in other healthy communities.

Civilization depends on order and shared values.

Aligned oldest to newest in the back farthest from the door.

I vote, and I’m not going to stop but I’m also drowned out living in TN where everything is stacked to keep a Republican super majority.

My most powerful vote is often in the primaries where I can vote for the least evil Republican.

That’s fair, but nearly any modern CPU at least 32gb of RAM and a current GPU with 16gb is plenty. No need for a 4k system when a 1k-1.5k will do it.

If you’re willing to Frankenstein things some of the used AI/ML/mining cards can be a decent value.

I disagree Gemma 4 easily runs inside of a 16g GPU and is really pretty fast.

Hahaha… No they never actually had principles only racism and hate.

Blocked by my ISP. So I have it all blocked.

So I have both Rackmount Server and Mini PC’s running in my lab, and it really comes down to what do you want/need.

Mini PC PRO:

• small size
• quiet operation
• low power, low heat
• limited remote management option with vPro

Mini PC CON:

• limited storage options
• limited ram
• lower thread/core counts at lower TDP (often 35w)
• limited expansion or no expansion

Rackmount Server PRO:

• offer expansion
• offer redundant power
• lots of RAM
• lots of cores/threads
• lots of PCIe
• lots of networking
• IPMI (remote management)

Rackmount Server CON:

• lots of noise
• lots of heat
• lots of power use
• takes up way more space

I think the little Minisforum MS series offer the perfect balance of mini PC with server like options. They give you 4 built in network ports 2x 10g and 2x 2.5g which is perfect for most applications IMO, they are available in both AMD and Intel flavors. With the one open PCIe slot you can add an external SAS card and then just use a SAS enclosure for disks. I currently have USB HD’s plugged into my mini PCs and its not great, they dont get enough cooling, and I live in fear because they are on cheap wallwart power supplies. It is working and for the most part has been.

My Rack configuration has been stripped down massively and now its just a single 2RU and Dell 1RU that is a low spec storage server only. The 2RU has an AMD 3900x w/ 64gb and 16gb MI25 card so I can tinker with AI, the Dell is just an i3-8gen with 32g and 4x 12tb drives.

The Lenovo’s are both i5-8gen with 32gb, same with the Dell mini PC, the Minisforum is an MS-A1 before they had the MS-A2 with better networking and PCIe. The Lenovo’s do have upgraded networking so I can have 4 network ports per box, 2x 10gb, 1x 2.5, 1x1g.
