Orr, you’re missing the obvious alternative here - the guy was a legendary level scientist, but the government stole his research and threatened his family and sidelined him into being a community college professor so that no one pays attention to his “drivel” so that they continue to control us into being workers for the capitalist pigs

Yep, mostly this. No more tinkering, whether it’s all the way to flashing roms etc or just trying out which alternatives I want to use for a dialer or sms app etc. definitely less notification spam too.

It’s not a commitment on our side though, we can stop living when we want to between now and 5 million years later. Imagine loving it and reaching 4999999 years though…

I’m not from the US and speaking about other countries too, not just the US. We became countries from kingdoms at a certain time for all of us. Somehow, states were formed either after or before from the kingdom period or whatever names they were called. It seems we are moving to a time when the states or provinces or whatever would like more say than the country. Do you think we will evolve to an EU like system or some other new system over the course of time, making the concept of countries or federal/central “rule” obsolete and instead moving to a more alliance between these localised states/provinces a system?

- Comment on I have some questions about selfhosting 2 months ago:
My suggestion is either to use one device, that has a decent enough GPU for transcoding, to do everything or a separate NAS drive purely for storage and a separate PC with that GPU capability for jellyfin/plex + Immich. Home assistant and arr aren’t that resource hungry. Also go for Usenet instead of torrents. Good luck and happy sailing.
