I feel similarly and to expand a bit its more the fact that second time around electing this fool proves that that majority of Americans are either horrible people or useful idiots which is incredibly depressing to know with certainty. For me, first time around was a fluke, second time is reality. I'm exploring citizenship elsewhere as a backup plan.

My install is bare metal, all SSD, redis and php-fpm optimization and I'm extremely happy with the performance. Also use transcoding from an Intel a380 and use Memories for the whole family. Works snappy and flawless. You need to tweak the php settings.

I bailed on rocketchat a few years ago for Mattermost and never looked back. Rocketchats update cycle was insane, sometimes two releases in a week but often several a month. A few pdates required full database dumps and manual tweaking. It just wasn't for me.

My previous primary server used to be a 12 year old laptop with an SSD. I deployed a laptop server in rural Greece and its bulletproof, it VPNs back home to the US and works during short power outtages. Only caveat is the CPU fan, if you run the server with a high load the fans are not designed for years of high usage. I got crazy enough with one server where I cut the bottom out and mounted a large aluminum plate to the CPU heatsink and made it passively cooled.

This is exactly how I conduct myself with my maga mother in law. Any bigoted shit in front of my daughter gets publicly squashed and any political topics are quickly dealt with and put in its place. She lives a life of ignorance, dont be mad, feel bad.

Does anyone remember older 747 jets having these types of projectors to show movies on international flights? Always thought it was so cool.

Thank you for putting into words what ive subconsciously been thinking for years. Every search result prioritizes videos at the top and I'm still annoyed every time. Or even worst I have to hunt through a 10 minute video for the 30 seconds of info I needed. Stoohhhhpppp internet of new! Make it good again!

Other elephant in the room is how healthy is the dad? A super motivated, athletic and engaged older dad is still better than an uninterested, over weight, young dad.

My 36" TV is fine, you monster.

Most electric vehicle motors (or any motor, wind farms, cordless drills, etc), speakers, and medical MRI machines need them and lots of them. Kind of important and America has been asleep at the wheel on this topic for decades.

Check the power supply too. Those mini PCs just use a cheap laptop power brick and sometimes they can't sustain their full output anymore. I had one server constantly crash and once I swapped the power brick I never had a problem again.

 

Title says most of it. Spin electric scooters exited the Seattle market and abandoned their scooters all over the city and apparently they have a pi 4 in them!

 

I call this nonsense host ‘Ghost’, for me it’s similar to a tape backup solution. Fairly simple concept, it’s an old Pi1 + external mechanical drive that sits dormant with its ethernet off. Once a month, at a random time and random date it enables the ethernet, spins up the drive and pulls data from the main server to update its drive then goes black until next month. The only way to check or maintain the pi is a push button that toggles the ethernet interface. I slapped it together with some scrap wood, spare hardware and screwed it to a 2x4 in a dark corner of my basement. It’s my 5th string backup, the ultimate insurance policy because I’m mental.
