It really does depend, so I mainly was speaking from my personal experience. But this is also why using both is recommended for *aar, because then you get the best of both worlds.

This is correct. The only thing that is regulated is the disposal (at least in WA) - otherwise home owners are legally allowed to remove it themselves as they see fit. Not that I recommend it if you don't know what you're doing, but you won't get a fine.

Source: am homeowner who (with saftey precautions such as a tent of 3 mil plastic, negative airflow, HEPA shopvac, soap and water, and a proper respirator) removed asbestos tape from my duct work.

It's understandable, sure. It's also a little more complex up front. For me personally, the pros outweigh the cons and I'd much rather use Usenet over torrenting, even with the cost.

I definitely think it's DMCA, unfortunately.

For indexers, I have DrunkenSlug, nzbgeek, and nzbplanet. My backbone providers are UsenetExpress, FrugalUsenet, and Giganews. You can use https://whatsmyuse.net to make sure you don't have overlapping backbones.

The main benefit is that you don't need to use a VPN, so you get full download speeds. Also the availability and download speed isn't dependent on seeders, so more obscure content tends to survive longer on Usenet.

That's not the problem here unfortunately. This is usually a complete take down on the server side, and has nothing to do with their location.

Usenet, while way better than torrenting, still requires multiple indexers and providers for this reason. I have 3 of each and rarely ever run into this issue except for very niche releases.

What benefit would a VPN give for OP's problem?

At least on Android, you can make TTS go through your alarm channel on your phone at max volume, to really make sure you don't miss it. I do this for my alarm and doorbell (only when I'm at home).

I probably won't be going for commercial use, just hobby stuff mainly. It would be neat to do some nylon stuff but that's probably as crazy as I'd get.

But yes, ideally my budget is $450-1200 (wide I know, but I'd like to explore my options).

Do you know how well the auto leveling works?

Crontab to just auto reboot daily is probably better - if your PC becomes unresponsive I doubt it would be able to execute another script on top of everything. Ideally though, you'd do some log diving and figure out the cause.

That's not specific (or true) though, there are plenty of active niche communities, especially those for localities. Which communities would you like to be more active?

Really happy this is the focus of our highest chambers of government and not passing actual regulations for all social media companies, or you know, giving citizens healthcare.

I've got bad news for you, the CCP is happy to use American social media to manipulate the populous, it doesn't matter if it's US owned or not.

Do you think that wealthy citizens can't be bought off by hostile foreign governments? Neither is better - we need actual regulation rather than worrying about a single company.

You're gunna turn into dust by the time the government regulates Meta. The only reason they care about TikTok so much is optics and the fact that a foreign company is abusing the system in the same way as the domestic social media companies. The fix isn't to divest ByteDance, the fix is to pass actual regulation with teeth that applies to domestic and foreign companies alike.

Funeral potatoes are the one food I miss from Utah. The ultimate comfort food.

Lmao, it looks like the forts I would make when I was a kid
