    [Politics] We hanged and beheaded the decadent Bourbon dynasty. Why don't we overthrow the Epstein elite the same way?

  • Political revolutions usually involve a wealthy class being kept away from political power, combined with a particularly unpopular and stupid absolute ruler.

    In the US, the wealthy are the political class, and while Trump is stupid and unpopular he has only been in power a year. Most people think he will be gone in 3 more years, and even if he jettisons the Constitution and stays in as President, he is old and unhealthy.

  • [Solved] What do I need to setup for an email-proxy?

  • I'm old school, and would set up Fetchmail. It can pull down either POP or IMAP (I haven't used POP in 25+ years, but I guess it works fine still). Then I'd run Dovecot or some other IMAP server on my host to read mail from there.

  • Increases in productivity go to the owners, not the workers. Even imaginary increases in productivity.

  • Mostly accurate, although the flight delays tend to be announced one short delay at a time. "We're going to be a few minutes late pulling out from the gate." "We missed out takeoff window, so we're going to have a 20 minute delay." "We need to refile our paperwork, so we're heading back to the gate." "Ground crew changed shift, so we need another 45 minutes." And so on...

  • He was President for 4 years and then tried a coup after losing the election. He was elected in 2024 anyway.

  • Until there's an easy way to have an algorithm other than date order, Mastodon will always be sort of "meh" for me.

  • DNS is never the Domain Name Service.

    The very first sentence of RFC 1034, the document that is the basis of DNS, identifies it as the Domain Name System.

    Also, do you have an S3 compatible storage? If not, what do you use for persistence?

  • One reply to this is that God can do anything possible.

    Now, ideas about what is possible vary. For example Descartes could not conceive of a triangle where the angles did not add up to 180°. However, even in Descartes' time it was known that a triangle on a sphere will have angles that add up to more than 180° (you can make a triangle with 3 right angles on a globe and those angles add up to 270°).

    So the idea might be refined to be more that nonsensical things remain nonsensical. As in, you can ask the question, "Can God change the color of a flower to Tuesday?" But even though it is perfectly correct English, it doesn't make sense, and your question is bogus, not God.

  • Saying "please" when asking someone to do you a favor isn't excessive, IMHO. It indicates that you are making a request and not issuing an order, and recognizes that you are grateful for the assistance.

  • Presumably you had to travel to get there. It's likely you didn't have anything to drink while travelling. So they offer you a drink.

    Also, it's nice to sit and chat while enjoying a drink, whether that is a warm drink (coffee, tea, whatever), a cold drink (water, juice, soda, whatever), or an alcoholic drink (beer, wine, whatever).

    Edit: Also why are you annoyed? If you don't want anything a simple "nothing for me, thanks" is fine and shouldn't put you out too much!
