  • Me, My, and I.

    Conservative? Of course.

  • SAY THE LINE, BART!

    Sigh, Conservatives don't care until it happens to them directly...

    YAAAAYYY!!!

  • Land of the...

  • Or using "deport" with USA citizens getting sent to death camps with no due process. Or anyone not sent back to their home country. Still sane washing. It's not just the Murdoch rags.

  • I guess I'm more risk adverse than most because I was pretty stunned to last see the decline is only single digit % still globally besides Canada.

  • Or else what?

  • It's lizard brain notices thing in the form of an emote. That's how I interpret it!

  • I never fell for mp3.exe, but I did install Real Player and use the built in browser once.

    I learned how to remove a Trojan virus that copy pastes itself into a few directories before mom got home from work at 9 years old.

    People wonder why I know so much about computers, a large part was fucking up the expensive family PC repeatedly.

  • Cool thanks for info.

  • It's been enough to just seed behind a VPN at this scale? I'd like to do something similar one day at smaller scale but I'm a bit fearful.

    In my youth I used to operate my own and admin on other ROM sites. The smart move then was Asian server hosts who would take anonymous payments with no personal info attached to the accounts. But we were still worried of Nintendo, keeping safe was a bit scary.

    But they never went after us. It was easier for them to just go after people hosting in the USA under their real names.

    But that's centralized, different ballpark from p2p. I used to use mullvad for torrents until they removed port forwarding.

  • That's still modern Japan lol. At least, it stands out to me vs western media today.

  • Is this truly the year of Linux?

  • Awesome! I like the original series best by a decent margin. Soooo good.

  • You’re getting absolutely railed on your connection charges; that’s like $4.88CAD a day!?

    Your professional opinion is on point 🤣

    Yeah. Deregulation happened under our previous idiot premier and he parachuted into a cushy job at one of the utility companies after he had a tantrum and quit for an essay worth of reasons that lead to our current predicament with the alt right. Anyways, nothing sus about that!

    We can sell back to the grid here too, but it's not as great a deal with only really generating power in the summer months. From what I've seen locals can basically break even covering the fees on average over a year with the remnants of the solar programs UCP didn't destroy at best. That's also deliberate. They won't let you install a system bigger than the power you consume over an average of three years. So what savvy people do is overconsume on purpose to get a bigger solar setup approved. I might do this one day, but it'll be DIY to save 15k from hiring goons to mount panels to my roof and run the wires. I can do that myself.

    I don't anticipate any cratering in foreseeable future because despite the upgrades...they were already overloaded before and borderline now. They've (gov) actually been going around and asking manufacturing plants to shut down in summer months strategically and offering lump sums each time they participate when asked to make it worth shutting down. Clown show.

    There was a solar farm getting built...but Amazon owned it so, can't say I was excited. Probably a dead deal now with everything going on.

  • Unless he sold all his shares...well I still wouldn't buy a Tesla, they're anti Right to Repair and anti union.

  • IpFS like ddh says makes the most sense probably. But you can archive a lot of raw text. Try to save what you think the Nazis would burn. I doubt archive.org survives many more years. Leaked archives of american research papers too.

  • I'm in Alberta Canada, so it's recently converted coal plants to natural gas power plants supplied by private deregulated utility companies and resellers. Energy prices have been dropping as a result of the upgrades.

    If you're still curious:

    I just switched to the cheaper market rate, so this bill is my previous 9.25 ¢/kWh.

    Edit: natural gas bill too why not.

    Context matters: Zone 3b climate region, 1200sqft 70's built bi-level with 3 adult humans worth of consumption.
