I really want to build an i2p router, and have started a couple times, but the lack of control of what goes through my hardware stops me every time. It's a cool project and, sadly, looking more necessary every year.

It's weird I don't have these hang ups for other systems. Running a meshcore node doesn't give me the willies. Just for i2p I worry how much csam is going through my router.

Someone doesn't know the folly of extending straight lines graphs into the future.

I'm a little embarrassed about how many of these, if not for the thread, sound like believable names to me. Mayhaps I'm not as cultured as I would like to think.

Not to defend Germany, but given their relative size of prison populations, and number of citizens extra judicially killed by law enforcement. The US is, measurably, the worse of the two.

It is, given the thread thanks for the correction. Fixed

There's value in accentuating a point, don't let me make you feel otherwise. Just for me, personally, I don't like using i.e.

I know the difference between i.e and e.g. but I've never really seen the point in i.e. if you're just going to enumerate what you mean anyway. It is like using "it" to replace a noun, but then explaining what you meant by "it" right next to the usage:

It (using i.e.) is like using "it" (the pronoun used as a shorthand for other nouns) to replace a noun, but then explaining what you meant by "it" (the pronoun used as a shorthand for other nouns) right next to the usage.

It's clumsy, just use the list if you're going to list them anyway.

I like dairy products i.e. milk cream, cheese and yoghurt.

I like milk, cream, cheese and yoghurt

'Who' Vs 'whom'.

Answer the question with 'he' Vs 'him' and match the 'm's is an easy rule of thumb.

He went to the park: who went to the park?

You called him: Whom did you call?

I understand why it's falling out of usage, as the strong SVO eliminates the need for accusatives, I wouldn't be surprised if 'him' and 'her' go away next. Knowing and using 'whom' sure helped me with the '-n' affix when learning Esperanto though, also fuck '-n' signed: English speakers. Replace the word with whom, him or her and if it's clumsy you don't need the -n.

Now, if I could just wrap my head around 'si' Vs 'li', 'ŝi' and 'ri'. Or, a solid rule of thumb, that would be so nice. I promise I'm not a toddler, I just talk like one.

🎵Whom ya gonna call? Ghostbusters!!!🎵

I'm sorry

+1 if they can rp the incompetence into an adv roll. Literal weaponised incompetence

I've been doing "tipsy chore day" for a while. Do a chore > glass of wine > do another chore > glass of wine.... I may as well finish the bottle > do a chore > final glass.

Chores are less boring, and you push through them to get your next glass. Has to be wine though, beer I don't get a buzz going, and spirits have me incompetent.

If I were a narcissist, given the scenario, how would my actions be different from what actually happened.

I'm not great at interrupting negative behaviours currently, but this helps me recognise them after the fact.

A book about loss. Loss of family. Loss of country. Loss of culture. Loss of all things. It's beautifully written, and the theme of loss doesn't mean a somber tone throughout, the found family is strong.

Vikunja feature request: once a day export "due today" tasks to printer, mark as done when printed. One day I'll learn python and could script this myself... One day.

Vikunja is how my fiancée and I keep track of housework, we're both neurospicy. But, like the author if I forget one day, the system completely breaks until I make a conscious effort to start again. By then the list is over run with "overdue"s it's a little disheartening.

To anyone and no-one:

“To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize,” Kevin Alfred Storm, noted Neo-Nazi caught with a non zero amount of child porn, talking about Jews. Also, paraphrased by William H, talking about Muslims.

I fought against getting a contactless debit card for so long. I used to call my bank a month or so before my card expired demanding a non-contactless card. "But sir, you could just not activate the contact..." I don't want any of it. I'd say "when I forget my pin it's time to go home" paying chip and PIN like a peasant. I probably said "PIN Number" for how stupid I was being.

Anyway, contactless payment is awesome.

My fears are still grounded. Originally it was because, near weekly, I saw someone paying with a card they just picked off the floor. I hated the limit being so high long before they raised it, let alon after they raised it again. Also a skill check before ordering another beer has some merit.

"Cults do like to cut off and distance their members from outsiders and their families" In the same email that he was threating to block me for suggesting his quoting of a Nazi might be a bad thing.

Close second: "Trump (married to a woman) is misogynist" but also "I (British), married to a Malay, can't be racist because I'm married to a Malay".

Honourable mention: "I don't like the word 'Islamophobia' or your Newspeak". My guy, Newspeak was famous for doing something to the dictionary, and it wasn't adding words to describe more concepts.

Anyway, he blocked me... Like cultists do. All quotes are paraphrased, I CBA digging through the emails.

Hardware wise I'd go AIO. A mini and a pair of mirrored USB drives is my setup. I have an off-site backup running: another mini + USB. Finally, I have an inherited laptop as a redundant network box/local backup/immich compute. I have 5 households on my network, and aside from immich spiking in resources (hence the laptop), I have overhead to spare.

An n100 mini (or n150, n200, whatever) is cheap enough and powerful enough for you to jump in, decide if you want to spend more later. They're small, quiet, reasonable Value for Money, easy Wife Acceptance Factor, and can age into a bunch of devices if you decided self hosting isn't for you. I'd make a retro console out of any spare mini.

This way, when spending £x00s on a server, you'll have some idea on what you actually need/want. The n100 can the age into a firewall/network box/local back up/etc if/when you upgrade.

All that said. An AIO storage-compute box is where I'm headed. I now know I need a dedicated graphics card for the immich demand. I now know I want a graphics card for generative AI hobby stuff. I know how much storage I need for everyone's photos, and favorite entertainment, permanent stuff. I know how much storage I need for stuff being churned, temporary stuff. I now know I don't care about high availability/clusters. I now know... Finally, the 'Wife' has grown used to having a server in the house: it's a thing I have, and do, which she benefits from. So, a bigger, more expensive, and probably louder box, is an easier sell.

"TRaSH-guides" into your favourite search engine. Even if you don't want to set up a *arr, the pros and cons of file format are discussed there.

Prowlarr suggests Knaben, then TheRARBG are my most successful sources of Linux ISOs.

The specific works? Who knows. It's irrelevant

My point is your original premise was wrong. Creation DID happen without IP laws. People DO create with out the need for compensation/copy protection.

I propose, people will create things because they always have.

Creation happened before intellectual property laws existed.

Creation happens that can be immediately copied with no compensation now, open source software is an example.
