I was probably exaggerating when I said 50.

I just counted the icons on my dash. 42.

“Backups?”

I tried Proxmox but found it way overkill for home use. I run ~50 Docker containers and I love Docker for its ease of use. Proxmox is an order of magnitude more complicated.

1970s oil crisis turned off my lights

This, in combination with ‘copyparty’ as a Docker container with a volume mapping to my files. Edit locally, and edit from anywhere.

It will be a looong time before I set foot in that country again, if ever. I’m very sad that I can’t visit my nice friends but nobody should have to risk going to a concentration camp.

Boss said, last year’s performance met expectations, so we are all not getting any bonus.

What?? Hold on. It’s a performance-based bonus. This directly translates to a bonus-based performance, effective immediately.

Fuck the company, I don’t work for peanuts.

Respectfully disagree with you.

I’ve been taking music lessons for years, to find that I don’t have the ear nor the rhythm for it.

Ten years of dance classes, I love the feeling of floating over the floor with an English Waltz. But ask me to stop counting in my head, or improvise rather than trained patterns, and I fall apart, just rocking in place.

Painting too. Aquarels, not acrylic. I don’t have the imagination nor, again, the fine motor skills.

The Arts are not for me.

I am a man of electronics, mechanics, computing, soldering, Lego, woodworking, sailing, geometry, 3d modeling. And I can teach and plan and organise.

It’s all practical, tangible stuff. That is who I am.

Buuut the thinking is that open source algorithms are not intentionally made to be so fucking EVIL.

What about 2FA, and banking apps, and banks’ payment apps? At least in Yurop they require a “safe” / “uncompromised” OS. Oh the irony! But that is why I am still unrooted.

Likely, but you did not let poor code pass. That is valuable.

They can do anything they want. That is just something they don’t want to do. Again, 🤮

Google FATCA, the US Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act.

Anyone anywhere in the world that is either US citizen, or a green card holder, or in other ways related to Murica, must pay US taxes. It’s insane, but the US tax system is powerful enough to bully all other countries into compliance.

Don’t get me started. 🤮

Crying in 70Mbps copper… 15 upload.

It won’t be just for criminals.

And the essential companion product, Potato.

I hate products with generic names. It makes it utterly impossible to search for.

Even if this OP post might explain it, it is still useless when taken out of context like in the esteemed comment above this one.

/rant, sorry, thank you.

Is he, though? ;-)

And is this stolen robot body in the room with you now?

Sounds interesting! Care to share it?
