- Comment on Simplify home hardware for selfhosting 3 days ago:
Absolutely agree. My DD distro accidentally gets borked sometimes as fiddling can go too far, and it’s become essential that it doesn’t interfere with services my wife uses (file storage, movies/tv, etc). Plus, if everything was going down every so often, she’d probably start looking at me twice for the money I’ve invested in my server rack.
I have one box running TrueNas Core as a straight file server only, and another box running Proxmox for applications plus VMs for projects, as well as network gear and a surveillance NVR. Thankfully, she never sees the power bill. But, this way everything keeps humming and I don’t get an earful.

I’d rather he set off to colonize mars himself already. Whether he actually makes it there or not I really don’t care, just as long as he loads into a rocket and departs.

I mean, glad you think that, but there’s this stupid thing call reality that is pretty lame yet it is what it is.

Also, I’ve been sober from alcohol and drugs for close to 30 years now … and I’m perfectly aware of all this and think about this stuff all the time. We don’t need mind altering drugs to understand how stupid, greedy and corrupt our world is, has always been and will always be until we destroy ourselves and free this planet of our own stupidity.
You have to remember that most people, especially Americans, are brainwashed from birth to believe that the current order of the affairs is the best and only way to operate a society, and that anything else is, ahem, communism, which is the worst possible thing there is. For many, psychedelics has been the most impactful way for an individual to actually think outside the box on a visceral level since their conditioning since birth has been one of “this is the only way to think, so hop on board lest you be cast out of society.” It’s the entire reason why these substances are illegal, can’t have people thinking for themselves out of lockstep with the prescribed mentality.

Because the people in power benefit from the status quo, and they’ll sooner blow up the planet than live in a world where they’re not on top.
