The only difference between men and boys is the size of their toys.

That shelf sag scares me, sir. At least reinforce each layer with a slab of plywood or something.

Whatever is cheapest. When youre first starting out basically any hardware will do, it just needs to boot Linux. As you progress and find more stuff to put on the servers, you’ll discover what you’re real hardware needs are.

When I first started, it was a hand me down single core AMD Sempron machine (socket 754!) that I later upgraded to an Athlon64 and 4gb of DDR. I managed to bodge that poor thing into running a Minecraft 1.5.2 server.

Personally I would stick with the i3 machine since I am assuming it’s an office PC that can be had for cheaper than a Pi 5 (which is quite inflated in price IMO). x86 still retains better software support vs ARM and they are significantly easier to attach large cheap storage to via SATA. Power cost will be greater but I doubt an office i3 pulls more than 70w wall power at full load.

As well as World War III killing a double digit percentage of the world population.

Not anymore. Those penalties expired federally in 2018 and the state I am in does not have its own coverage mandate penalties far as I can tell.

I’m a young healthy male without much need for health insurance. Do I opt myself out of it for the next year? The money I’d save on my employer sponsored premium would be fairly significant and help me get assets I actually need. And fuck the healthcare industry.

For russia. These sanctions are basically toothless, Russian corporations have already decoupled from the Western banking system and are shadow-fleeting all their oil to willing buyers in India and China without much reduction in flow. This is a theater play.

Does that mean I can stop paying taxes on it too?

At this point, it will rip the bandaid off and make desperate people come after Republicans. That’s the best possible outcome.

They don’t catch on fire anymore, just fill with diarrhea from an incontinent asshole.

Gideons usually distribute them.

Some specific hotel chains, mainly Marriott’s, are owned by Mormons and also mandate that the book of Mormon be placed in the rooms too.

I live in an ultra red shithole and even we had an easy 300+ people turn out and line an entire intersection with signs. Shit is looking good.

I normally thought this way, but most cinemas make cents at best on movie tickets. Vast majority of the ticket price goes directly to the producer. The only way they cover the rest of their overhead (and stay in business) is thru concessions.

I mean. The only real rules we have mostly surround don’t be a dick and the bare minimum to manage a public forum. If you can’t really pass that test then you weren’t welcome in the first place.

Lemmy is what you make of it. You have to put effort into tuning your subscribed communities, blocklists, etc. There is no algorithm to filter the chaff for you. I see very little inter-instance drama these days because I’ve filtered it out.

Come on, Pam, come fuck up a stroke-addled disabled trans woman who doesn’t have the strength to lift a gun!

Woah woah woah, that is WAY too pornographic of a situation for the fascists. That’s the stuff that gives them wet dreams.

Arizona has very “chaotic neutral” purple state energy.

Your comment is surprisingly spot on. One of my professors from community college that I remain in contact with is a retired AF pilot and long time Boeing manufacturing engineer from well before the M-D merger. He quit only a year or two after the merger because he saw the huge writing on the wall with how suddenly Boeing’s corporate behavior changed. He had contacts at M-D who warned him too and he got out while the getting was good.

This is truely an “enemy of my enemy is my friend” situation
