  • How far back in time could you go with your skills?

  • For all of human history, labor has always been a productive skill.

    I can do labor in any era.

  • I do think there's a debate to be had as to if were in a "better place" then if Clinton had won

    If she had won, we wouldn't be better off relative to 2015. We would have been in the same shit we were in 10 years ago with a housing crisis on the rise and COVID would have still happened and probably wouldn't have gone too radically differently.

    Wed still have increased income inequality and we saw under Biden that the main Liberal answer to climate change is Electric Cars which net doesn't help and in fact worsens our e-waste issue.

    Obviously, I don't know this is how it would have gone for sure, but the democrats really haven't given me much to believe in.

    So would we have been "better off" with a dem successor compared to the 2015 status quo? No I don't think so and I think we all knew that and it doesn't inspire people to vote or participate in elections.

    Would we have been better off to what we got? Yeah probably. But that's stuff we didn't completely know until hindsight kicked in. I think we all assumed he'd be a lame president and not a modern Commodus or Nero.

    Now, I don't subscribe to acceleration ist views, but there is that view point as well.

    Under that ideology, we are better off compared to a Clinton or Harris win because they would have subdued the flakier radical elements in society longer.

    Trump being president and his flagrant disregard for our status quo system is a massive stepping stone towards a revolution of some sort to hopefully fix the problems of our 2015 society plus the additional inflated issues by Trump.

  • Damn. All this talk of conservatives being throat goats and we completely forgot how much Warren likes head.

  • I want to believe we could have a woman president so long as she ran on something other than being a wet noodle that's trying to be #relatable more than just being a good candidate.

    Or better yet, running on something more than

    "Are you really gonna let Trump win?"

  • Do it

  • Terry A. Davis's story inspired me to try coding professionally.

    Unfortunately coding professionally convinced me I'd have more fun in IT.

    I have never even dreamed of putting my feet on the dash.

  • What is your opinion on ghosting?

    Jump

  • What's crazy is that, personally, I seem to know just as many "Can't this guy take a hint" women as I know "I'm not good enough for him so I should block him" type women.

    I legitimately know two women who had that concern, blocked the guy on everything, and he either made an alt or found an obscure social to DM them on.

    Both are happily married and medicated for their anxiety now.

  • In hindsight, how much did you like your younger self? If present-you met your younger self (say, age 10) from an alternate timeline, do you think you could be friends?

    Jump

  • This feels like propaganda to get me to want kids.

    I would take care of alt timeline me because I know what I would have wanted and how that gets me to here.

  • And if you just want a NAS? It is really hard to go wrong with a 4 bay NAS from one of the reputable vendors (which may just be ugreen at this point?) as those tend to still come out cheaper than building it yourself and 4 disks means you can either play with fire with RAID5 or not be stupid and do RAID1.

    Actually ASUS started to sell N100 motherboards with the CPU soldered on for $120

    That plus a jonsbo N2 or N3, a few extra pieces, and its a few hundred dollars cheaper than the Ugreen options. Sure it will probably run Truenas instead of Ugreens custom truenas or whatever its built on, but that extra $300 is another 24TB hard drive or a HexOS lifetime subscription.

    There's also always the classic buy an old mid sized tower for $100 and slap two massive hard drives in it

  • Automattic CEO calls Tumblr his 'biggest failure' so far

    Jump

  • To be fair, IF tumblr had added the tipping feature while porn was huge on the site, it might have became Onlyfans.

    OF wasn't always a porn site. It was trying to be a Patron that allowed adult content, but it became just a porn site.

    I argue something similar would have happened to tumblr

  • I checked for you and good news!

    He isn't involved in much except investing in mobility aides and was apparently on the Planned Parenthood board for a while.

    Quick search showed his most recent activity was being the single largest donor to Mark Kelly's 2020 senate campaign.

    Completely normal progressive liberal stuff.

  • Imagine less off a proper BOD and more of a 3D Printable holder for 3.5 inch drives and no actual connections.

    I was considering a mini ITX PC with just an external SAS to Sata PCI card. But at the rate of just building that I might end up just building a better tiny nas box with maybe a jonsbo case like the N3

  • That's basically what I'm going for.

    How are you connecting the mini PC via SATA and how are you powering the BOD?

  • Its probably a parent company situation.

    Lots of corpo structures are just large parent companies that actually just own a bunch of smaller companies so that the parent company gets the profits while the smaller companies make the risky products and can be bankrupted at any minute.

    The company I work for does that. We just bought a couple companies that were competitors in a risky but profitable market. The full idea is that if one company gets sued to oblivion, we let that company die, move all the employees and customers to the backup company, and call it a day.

    Capitalism baby!
