Yay, we're back to the "self-deportation" dream. Can't wait for a thing of strawberries to cost $50 b/c there's nobody to pick them.

While I agree, it wouldn’t have mattered. He would’ve been martyred by the right, and Trump would pardon him on day 1.

Probably the most dangerous thing about his second term is he has nothing to lose. No more elections to worry about. That, coupled with his ability to largely escape any serious repercussions for his actions will make for an interesting 4-years.

Once I pick one, I’ll probably set up a regular donation. I should also probably drop some $$ towards the other projects since I’ll probably keep an eye on them.

Agreed, iCloud Photos is pretty nice. I almost gave in when they added the AI features and text recognition. Unfortunately, my library started having some stability issues. Was finally, hopefully, able to resolve those yesterday.

Still, one of the nice things about most of the photo hosting apps is they store photo metadata properly - in sidecar files. If they go tits up, and you maintained your metadata you really haven’t lost much. If the Photos DB gets corrupted, you’re going to lose data that would otherwise have been stored in those sidecar files. IMO this is a glaring omission on Apple’s part. I get that having all that info in a database makes larger libraries perform better, but por que no los dos?

Ah, i didn’t see ente’s self hosted version. The instructions look kind of strange. Will need to look into it more.

Time for Mr. Smith to go be a partner at a big law firm in Boston.

Oh, and Damnation Game was pretty good.

Thief of Always was touching and a little scary. There’s also Great And Secret Show, which was… weird.

Michael Flynn is going to be involved somehow. We all know it.

I've looked at ente, but honestly don't see the point unless I want to stop paying for iCloud storage (which for the time being I don't).

I've seen some examples where Caddy can do some cool stuff (I think the example I saw recently was defining routes that can call an arbitrary program with the HTTP request details).

I guess this is what I was getting at. From what I can tell, at their core, both do pretty much what Swag is already doing for me. Was mainly curious about additional functionality I hadn't thought of. Most of what I've done so far is stuff I hadn't thought of until I saw it mentioned here, reddit, or in the linuxserver list.

Day to day is Yorkshire tea with a little sugar. Every now and then I like to mix some Darjeeling with licorice tea.

Wait a second, you mean Trump just used the guy and is now dropping him like a half-eaten Big Mac? I am shocked. SHOCKED, I say.

I think I get the argument, and I’m not going to defend fascists, but if a fascist comes to a Star Trek community to discuss Star Trek, cool. If they come there to talk about how awesome fascism is, seeya. If the mods of a community want to ban people for their views that have not been shared in the Star Trek community they run, that’s bs. If the content is on topic, nobody should be getting banned.

I’m surprised at the number of people who don’t know Weezer’s “Hashpipe” is about male prostitution.

Often when tenants lose keys to a deadbolt, a shady landlord or superintendent will say the knob lock is “good enough” to avoid paying to have the deadbolt replaced. Consequently, tenants might install their own deadbolts.

You might ask, why not just replace the existing lock!? Well, the super is going to call a locksmith to do that, and the locksmith can charge more for installing a new lock rather than replacing the old one. Plus, an extra lock when everyone’s is home for the evening == extra security.

Came here to say the exact same thing.

My, aren’t these deck chairs on this, the largest cruise liner ever built, arranged beautifully!

I mean, he already has to live in Texas. Why let him go to Canada?

That this fascist is so close to being elected at all, especially given that we’ve already seen him “do the job” once, means this country has already failed any such test. At this point, someone like Trump getting elected again is only a matter of time.
