Time for my Urumin fix.
- Comment on William Sherman is not a hero or an icon to be admired 2 weeks ago:
General Sherman was the general that led a Union army through the Confederacy during the US Civil War. The army burned a mile (~1.7 kilometers) wide path across several states.
He hated slavery and slavers, and his actions to defeat the Confederacy made him a hero for the Union.
With the current climate in the US, his actions during the Civil War have made him sort of a folk hero again.
As this meme points out, he was, by no means, a good person. Just a tool of state violence who happened to be used to do something positive.
It’s like praising a hammer that built a house for orphans then finding out it was used to kill homeless persons.
- Comment on Washington Washington 6,7 killing for fun 2 weeks ago:
Have you seen any ads for the movie “Young Washington”? Hopefully not. They make me mad and wonder how they managed to get actors like Andy Serkis and Ben Kingsley.
The Mormon church teaches that the “Founding Fathers” were inspired by God and raised by God to make sure that the US would be created.
Washington may not be revered as a god, but Mormons and many conservatives see him as an icon and saint.

The most important sentence:
From what has been presented in this preliminary work, it is safe to conclude that the phrase “Flat is Justice” is deficient aerodynamically.
- Comment on French medallion of Napoleon embracing Tsar Alexander I. He told his wife Josephine, “If Alexander was a woman, I would make him my mistress.” 5 weeks ago:
He said “no homo” before the artist started painting, according to historians, so just a totally heterosexual bromance.

Promote him to “meat torpedo.” So many posthumous commendations.

I’ll look into Tailscale then. I’m guessing there’s something funky about adding additional users. I would eventually like to add one or two other people.

I’m not a hardcore tech person and this is exactly the issue for me as well.
I want to be able to stream my music collection when I’m away from home without having to get an associate’s degree in networking.
