  • They sold to private equity a couple years back. The enshittification started that day.

  • Ive been using pop-os for my desktop for years. Ive had no update headaches, roll back issues, or anything else that would compel me to swap distros for one that made these things better.

    So to answer your question:

    None of the above are compelling features that justify the work to switch off an already very stable distro.

  • 20TB hard drives are around $300/each. 12 gets you there with excellent redundancy built in.

    Toss them in one of these and you have 200TB, with redundancy and room to grow.

    Not cheap to do, but the above would only run about 5-6k.

  • If you're going to do something wrong, do it wrong right.

  • That "less than a single year" was at the beginning of covid, and his malicious and cavalier response to a global plague hitting american shores led to a million dead Americans.

    He was way more impactful about what happened with covid then anyone else, from allowing people to fly in unscreened to the states, from refusing to send out masks and tests, to pushing UV/disinfectant/invermeton, for refusing to help blue states early on because "it was good politically," on and on and on.

  • Using the stock market growth of the last 2 decades of global, neoliberal economic politics to council people to "think long term" about their investments at the start of isolationist, fascist economics policy is maybe not the best idea.

    "Look at the past" only works when the past is still relevant. They are ripping up every norm and institution that made those past gains possible.

  • 6 x 6 mothefuckers. Y'all tell me that didn't immediately form "36" in your brain.

  • It has many directions, not none.

    Same problem, different cause.

  • Glad to see you already picked it up. I read it in "one sitting" over the a couple of months at a slow job. The start was painful, but added really good context to her character.

    I cant speak to a Coil like villain that isn't Coil in the books, but if you are were I think you are, there are many "cold blooded and amazing actions by an anti-hero, villain or hero with a plan" instances left in the book, many of them major plot points.

    I cant say anymore without major spoilers, but if the above is your criteria, the books have some pleasant surprises for you if you finish them.

  • You might enjoy the web novels Worm. The main protagonist is basically exactly the above, an antihero by necessity with an "evil" power. The book in general lends itself to grey morality, even for the heroes. The actual villains? Actual evil. The author likes to imagine unorthodox super powers and really makes the characters with them really sing.

    Be warned though, it's a web novel that is literally something like "normal" 20 books long. Besides a rare lurch or two, it's also a surprisingly very good 20 novels.

  • We may have slightly different definitions of good, but fair enough.

  • Wickerman. Go.

  • Assets can fall further. Much further. Telling people to "hold on" is only correct if this is the bottom, which is basically impossible to accurately predict. Being able to do so would make you incredibly wealthy.

    If it's not the bottom, selling and holding cash and buying in when the market is lower is a better play. Basically, it's better to lock in 10% losses and buy back in at the 30% loss point then to take the 30% losses.

  • It looks to be half John brown posting, which shakes out well. They had similar views on the best kind of slaver being a dead one.

  • The app points back to always on servers you have setup to automatically download media on their own.

    It wont do anything for you if you fire up a torrent client and go download media manually.
