I think my comment must be confusing that people think that I'm saying that Hitler faced hyperinflation as part of his reign vs that Hitler ascended to power by being attributed as the only one who could successfully face hyperinflation.
Kinda like people were saying, "these are crazy times, we need a crazy leader."
Yes, that's the clown car part I was describing. That this administration is so obsessed yet unable to discern causality, that they're like "hyperinflation gave Hitler power! Ergo, if I want Hitler's power, there must be hyperinflation!"
I keep having this one dumb thought, but the longer all this idiocy goes on, the more I feel like I might be right:
Trump's obsessed with Hitler, right? A big part of Hitler's ultimate rise to ultimate power was the German people facing hyperinflation. What if Trump and his clown car are looking at that like less of a challenge Hitler faced and more of a checkbox or a milestone. Like, "Gotta have hyperinflation if I wanna be a real Hitler!"
A whole bag??? In this economy???
"Who are you gonna buy your products from? The people who already make all your products or me? Remember, I have none of the infrastructure to meet your demands! And if you don't pick me, in gonna make my people spend more money by paying me for the right to buy your products!"

I always wonder: Why is it tied so closely to American evangelical Christianity?
The answer to this, from what I understand, is SUPER fascinating and a rather straight line with only a single detour. In one word: racism.
Prior to the civil rights movement, you'll see a higher rate of people who consider themselves religious or of faith, but fewer fundamentalists. When schools started integrating and leading up to Brown v Board of Education, a lot of racist assholes were upset that their child might go to school with someone ~~colored~~ of color (holy shit, what's wrong with me today??).
Since public schools were becoming a cesspool of inclusivity (THE HORROR!), private schools realized they could become a safe-haven for segregationists and make bank off of an easily-exploitable, single-issue population. A trusted source of private schooling were churches and they were more than happy to do a racism if it meant easy money.
The religious schools were mutually beneficial for the parents, too. Their kid didn't go to private school because the parents were racist and wanted their children away from the "colored folk", they sent their kid to private school because God was super-important and needed to be in the kids' schooling. Why? Cuz we're super-religious now!
That's the ticket! We're not racist, we're religious!!! To keep up appearances, the parents would drag their family to church to prove how godly and un-racist they were.
In summary: why are the bigots often intertwined with evangelicals? Cuz you can use God to justify how much you truly suck.
I could imagine a few smart uses for a bucket of hair. How about "dumber than a potassium umbrella"?
“Yeah, I voted for Trump, absolutely. Did I know he was going to increase the tariffs? Yes, I did,” he said. “However, I thought that the infrastructure would be set up prior for small business to come back to America and manufacture in America. So to wish ill on someone and to love the fact that they’re suffering, to love the fact that their family is being negatively affected, because I didn’t vote the same way that you did is [expletive] up.”
He went on to explain that he doesn’t judge people based on their politics and has friends across the political spectrum.
“I’m sorry, a lot of you are [expletive] up … I hope you guys can be better people,” he concluded.
They never judge is for voting differently from them. They just want us killed off for thinking that different people deserve the same benefits as each other.
When he used to suck off all his friends and their buddies, it was just doing some brothers a favor. But ever since getting scanned at the airport, he's starting to suspect that he might have tasted 300 dicks because he likes it.
They scanned me, so I frisked them
I'm just guessing though, so I don't know if this is helpful at all.
Any information is helpful and I truly appreciate you taking the time to summarize your workflow. I've actually never monitored the histogram outside of snapping the photo, so that alone is a great suggestion. I generally edit by eye and kinda feel my way through, but using a metric sounds like a great idea! It also makes a lot more sense if you're right about RT/DT being more "literal."
I know I haven't given enough time to either piece of software, but I've been so shocked by how little of my process carried over, that I kinda ran away in fear almost immediately.
Just from the handful of OSs I've tried, I'd suggest Ubuntu desktop again.
As for docker, I'd say to get docker and docker compose setup. Once you're running in docker compose, adding machines is often as simple as editing some markup in a text editor.
But my final suggestion is to crawl before you walk before you run. Start slow in the terminal. Instead of using your file explorer, navigate directories using the terminal and then open the directory you need into the file explorer using the terminal.
Want a new file? Use
touch. Want a new directory? Usemkdir. Eventually, it'll become annoying to open a file from your explorer when you could just open it from the terminal. Then, you'll get annoyed with text editors and want to reduce your context switches by using vim.Also,
--helpis your best friend when trying to figure out commands. You got this! Feel free to send me a message if you wanna chat and have any questions when you're ready to start dipping your toes. I'm far from an expert, but I've made some progress of my own and eventually we might learn a thing or two together.
