Note that I already said you’d have to have all the survival and power requirements in place before doomsday. Not waiting until doomsday to use this box as a tool to learn how to survive. IOW if you’re not already a prepped prepper, this box is pointless.

I’m not sure what you’re aiming for when you kinda proved my point.

You cited a youtube video, something that would be inaccessible during doomsday as a source of info, and the whole point is to have all the power supply and survival solutions in place before doomsday and the youtube video would be pointless.

Look, unless it’s a slow decline where you have some access to power and time to develop survival tools and skills to use this box it’s pointless as you’ve already developed the survival tools and skills. As an archive of other skills and knowledge it’s only as useful as the longevity of the storage media and the devices used to access it (monitor, keyboard, pi, etc).

Neat. I get the archived sites and docs as pretty useful and a good way to keep info that might be redacted or manipulated by a fascist government, but I gotta question the use of this technological medium to save information as useful during a “doomsday” situation.

If you’re in an actual doomsday situation, that means odds are utilities like water and power are intermittent or nonexistent, this box will be useless unless you have already spent the time and effort to install and maintain an off-grid power solution to use this device. Otherwise it’s useless.

So essentially a gimmick. However, I can’t argue with the preservation of knowledge in an effort to reference it when bad actors change what is publicly available.

Arkansas isn’t rich enough to bribe goodwill from trump. He’s perfectly willing to shit on blue states that don’t kiss his ass for free, but everyone else still has to pay up. If you’re poor, sucks to be you.

Bullshit.

FSD is getting people killed and somehow this same car will get any kind of “ok” to solo drive to someone’s home from the factory?

More promises by Muskrat that aren’t gonna happen.

Probably have a sales rep in the car to monitor the drive.

Someone’s been living in a cave.

Looking for a handout? A little socialism? Pick yourself up by your bootstraps.

Pretty broad brush there, friend.

I see a lot more Big Farm buying little farms and getting richer for it.

Did he add methamphetamines to his drug cocktail?

Start linking up 4chan IDs to real rich people like Musk or republican officials and watch trump start calling for the death penalty for the hacker.

Enjoy importing all the parts with the tariffs!

 

I just started setting up a Jellyfin server and am moving all of my old DVD backups off of an ancient NAS that doesn't play well with modern TVs or Chromecast. Can't cast half the videos anymore because crhomecast says F you to certain audio and video formats, but jellyfin has zero trouble talking to my TV. It was going so well that I thought I might try to back up some of the aging DVD/BluRays we have laying around because they don't last forever and I'd hate to lose these titles. I used to use Handbrake/AnyDVD, but it seems AnyDVD is defunct these days... What are people using to back up their personal DVD collections these days? I prefer Windows apps, but I do have a good linux system that I can use to back them up with too, it's just slower than my Win PC.
