Like we don’t have child labor here in the good ol’ USA.

I know three girls who got BBLs in Florida and the “Doctor” used rubber cement. In the words of Dave Barry: I swear to god I’m not making this up! https://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/fake-doctor-injected-cement-and-fix-a-flat-into-patients-butt-6544305

Hell yeah, dude.

I’d love to play some video games, anyone know where I can find some of this free healthcare?

Nice.

I almost forgot this whole time it was just a ‘special operation’ 🤦

Only posers create open source projects as a promotion tool

Oh for sure. Way ahead of you, ditched those guys years ago. Now I just have no friends!

She’s right, though. The only friend I ever had who wasn’t creepy with my girlfriends behind my back was gay.

You stuck a hot wheel tire… '64 Corvette Stingray, up your nose as a child and it never came out

Easy peasy

Wasn’t aware of this, that’s awesome. Unfortunately it would need to be able to cast to various HTPCs and be easy enough for my family to use to fully replace YouTube in my house.

act like grownups.

Problem is there’s a large portion of voters who are not grown ups and are swayed by that shit and if only one side is slinging it only one side gets the non-grownup vote.

And every small and large organization who uses enterprise software that doesn’t work on any other OS.

There’s your mistake, loving a billionaire.

By a long shot. The sentences have been absolutely unhinged the last couple of weeks, and full of words I haven’t learned on top of that.

That’s pretty hilarious considering I’ve been using Duolingo (cracked apks) for years and these last couple of weeks the sentences it’s been giving me are insane and weird, stupidly awkward things that no one would ever say IRL.

Airlearn isn’t quite there as far as speech recognition but the lessons are a lot more natural and it actually tells you why and explains different parts of the culture around the language and why an idea might be expressed a certain way rather than how we’re used to in English. An LLM could never.

This is wild. I decided to see what was what and clicked the link in my email to upgrade. It took me to the upgrade site and I pasted in my license key also retrieved from an email, and it said the license was inactive. I tried to retrieve the key again in case they had changed it, but it said no key associated with my email. Again they had emailed me the link to upgrade. Then I moved to my PC where I clicked the link in the application to upgrade and it autofilled my license key, same issue. Oh well, I put in a ticket, but I’m no worse off than I was before. Thanks for the info, though.

Whaaaat?? That’s interesting, thanks. I will definitely have to look into that. I didn’t bother with the new one I just got mad lol

I work and socialize with many Gen Xers and they are very near and dear to my heart, so please know that I say this with all the love in the world. Gen X is left out of the conversation because they’re irrelevant to it. They want so badly what their boomer parents had that they may as well just be boomers. If we’re talking comedy, music, culture, Gen X has made some brilliant contributions, but when the topic is Millennials getting dragged, Gen X doesn’t get mentioned because there’s no meaningful generational distinction between them and the Boomers. They’ve blended in with the very system we are critiquing. And if they’re not mentioned there will literally always be a comment like this. Trust me, no one has forgotten you, Gen X. But despite all your rage you are still just a rat in a cage.

Well like I said you can start running servers right now for free with your desktop. Then your best bet is in my opinion going to be buying a NUC, Elitedesk, or another smaller form factor PC, this will save you on energy costs and noise, and flashing truenas to it (Or you can run everything you need to in Windows or Linux or containers if that’s what you’re comfortable with) and using either external hard drives or getting a hard drive array and using that to store everything. This is going to cost more than a Synology and takes a little setting up but it’s infinitely expandable and will suit your needs whatever they become. And don’t forget the 3-2-1 rule of backups. These rules are written in blood. And RAID is not a backup, I learned that one the hard way, myself.
