Legal streams let something worse than criminals in. Lawful criminals.

Yes, I someones forget how people live.
Disgusting.

Yes, another lost soul coming home to the self-hosted community!!

May I PSA/strongly suggest going FOSS early on?
(So not getting a closed software NAS)

Good luck on your journey!

NAS is just a Linux machine with fancy storage.
(I know thats technically not an accurate statement but Im standing by it, I know what I said)

But for a one-time backup of one pc you just need a disk tbh - and even that one can be the single one in your current pc if you are able to make a partition for either backup or for Linux.

Like, space permitting, just carve our a partition & transfer there what you would to NAS (or external disk drive, or an additional drive connected to the pc).
If space is a bit tighter just carve out the few gigs needed to install Linux on that (nowdays for most users “it’s fine”). Then must boot into Linux & use the rest is the drive as is.
Ofc if you have full disc encryption, raid etc this solutions are slightly more complicated.

Tbf in recent decades.

Even tho googled-android should have been even more so, but the hardware licence fuckshittery is a huge obstacle.

I fancy

I’m not saying you aren’t fancy, but grab a pitchfork and start fencing with it!!

(But yes, I was a bit confused by downvotes too but your explanation makes sense - which is weird bcs now that I understand it as such I’m def in the pitchfork crowd, even if I think we should be either way more lenient or give waaay more funding for the open sauce peeps providing us the rescue we don’t deserve)

Ahahaha, holly fucking shit.

They literally added some OS in their spyware.

Why not Willow

In case anyone was curious - the avg daily turnover of nvda is 300 to 350 million moneys.

Well, while outstanding in current (we are living in a 20++ year bubble without much correction - no, when market values/indexes/cap rebound within a year, or month, with mostly the same main players) times, and especially for a successful company in the tech sector, having more assets than market cap isn’t that weird.

As long as market value is above book value, it’s fine.
And when it’s not, it’s prob a bank after 2012 (tho prices are generally way closer to book than they were before) :D.

Stupid sexy Titi Villus, don’t tempt my spell ing.

I do both and I’m not.
(Not ‘not the same’, Im just not, I doubt my existence, especially when thoughts get inherent)

Yes, as said, Im agreeing, I was just pointing out the sad reality of what the majority is doing (and like it or not, that affects us all).
I’d love a legit third choice (again)!

Ok, but “google-infested shit-buckets” are also Chrome and all the chromium poop cups, even more so one might say.

Not disagreeing, especially with the sad sentiment of what’s happening at Mozilla, just trying to keep in mind the other 95% of the browser picture.

Yes, we have decades between (direct involvement in) wars!!
We didn’t even spend actual money on war stuff the last few decades.

But we sure are gonna do it now, we need to protect our drinking water (for the coming water wars) and update our firewalls (for the coming Skynet wars).

What-bits per sometimes

It just wanted to remove French, ofc I said yes!!

But also, honestly, I always “-y”.
The gamble is I’ll have to use an earlier bitchtree btrfs snapshot.

And thx for the great commentary on point 13.

Right?
People doing things like this is hella faith-in-humanity-restoring.

No, I meant the immediate people involved in the revolution, those often don’t fair well & don’t last long (eg people in a party, not necessarily main headline names). Iirc Russia changed almost everyone in charge in the 20s & 30s to a more stable structure afterwards.

In such system changes the country often goes through another (lesser) system revolution a few years after the first one (when the focus is to just keep shit running) & it’s better that people involved change at that point too.

Like what happened with Robespierre (~Jacobins), the early two or three years under Lenin, and I think Slovakia or Poland when they transitionv away from communism they forbid running for office to anyone that held any official power under the previous regime (the same people that formally facilitated the end of communism since it as that kind of revolution).

What you showed is what happened after after that, so the point of revolution. And I couldn’t agree more with that. My point was not in that. It’s that you need admins and regular politicians to run any system smoothly, and the few 1000s of people revolutioning arent usually the best at tirelessly debating a monetary policy or what road laws to use.

(Oh, the “plundering” part - yes, perhaps the wrong word to use, I meant that fairly literally, irl taking things, not doing it in an organised legal manner which is how “the 1% gets to exist” – and you can se that clearly in the Russia chart too, 90s capitalism was the framework for that, so “paper” not raiding rich houses)
