- Comment on If you're a parent, how do you prevent your kid from watching AI slop? 1 week ago:
I don’t allow unsupervised watching of YouTube and all other platforms are forbidden.
Their computers are in a public space where I can see what they are doing and watching.
I also do not allow screens in their bedrooms the occasional exception being for homework not only if they can’t get it done in a common room.

The wall mount rack is a used ACP Netshelter. I was able to find it on Craigslist a few years ago. The rackmount face plates are custom 3d printed but unfinished as I abandoned the project due to life.
- Comment on Self hosting hardware - what are your experiences with Lenovo ThinkCentre as homelab server? 2 weeks ago:
I may, it was a massive work in progress that I never finished because life decided to beat the crap out of me for the last 3 years. I was trying to build a modular system that was 19" and 10" rack compatible and would have storage options as well. In this case its 2x Seagate external drives, and a WD external drive plugged in via USB3 and setup in a CEPH cluster.
- Comment on Self hosting hardware - what are your experiences with Lenovo ThinkCentre as homelab server? 2 weeks ago:
Yes thats the MS-A1 which is a great little box but not as flexible as the MS-01. It lacks the PCIe slot, and only has 2x 2.5g Ethernet ports.
You probably wont find the MS-01 used since its not like the Lenovo’s with their mass market deployment as office PCs.
As for price, www.aliexpress.us/item/3256810143174659.html? I was looking at the barebones since the prices on DDR5 and NVME’s are nuts right now. I have spare NVME drives so all I would need is RAM and I can find it cheaper than the resellers who mark it up when they install it for you.
- Comment on Self hosting hardware - what are your experiences with Lenovo ThinkCentre as homelab server? 2 weeks ago:
I have 2 of them with older 6 core CPUs and 32gb each. I also added a 10g SFP card in the PCIe slot so they would have a bit more umph.
For 380 each I would not bother, and I would look at the Minisforum MS-01 as it has built in dual 10g SFPs and dual 2.5g RJ45’s plus a PCIe slot.
minisforumpc.eu/products/ms-01?_pos=1&_psq=MS&_ss…
at ~80 euro’s more you get more CPU, faster ram if you can find it, more storage, and more networking.

- Comment on Selling my old printer, looking for feedback 5 weeks ago:
I agree, check local listings for pricing but I would guess that it wont get anywhere near $200 as the list price is $279 for the newest version of this printer.
I would expect to pay 1/2 price or lower for a used entry level bed slinger

- Comment on Is gold investing a scam? 1 month ago:
No its not, because going up in value means its inflating because the base currency you are pegging its value to is also inflating.
- Comment on Is gold investing a scam? 1 month ago:
If there is complete societal collapse, then gold is going to be worth nothing, because you cant eat it. Bullets on the other hand you can use to take peoples food, or hunt for your own. So invest in bullets!
Now if you just expect financial collapse but not total societal then sure gold, silver, bonds are probably fine if you want “safe” stable ways to hold your investments.
In most cases, its just fear-mongering and gold has no more actual value than paper currency since they both derive their value from sentiment or perceived value. So if you show up at my house and offer me a small gold bar, you value at $10,000, and I value it at a potato, then your $10,000 is actually only worth a potato.
- Comment on why are fitness weights filled with sand? 2 months ago:
Dive weights and belts are generally Lead and I have seen them used in other applications too. if you search for steel ones they come up on Amazon and other sites.
- Comment on why are fitness weights filled with sand? 2 months ago:
They do make weighted vests and dumbbells with other materials but they generally cost more. So if you dont like bulky sand then try spending a bit more to get something with steel/lead/tungsten.

Totally understand, but now we need to primary him and get someone who will actually do the job, and not kowtow to AIPAC.
- Comment on In the US we have Breast Cancer Awarnes month and a bunch of others. All we do is throw money at a problem and hope it goes away How come the Gov don't take care of people from starving? 2 months ago:
Cruelty is the point, as is poverty. Keeping you poor and always looking for the next meal means you will work for slave wages and let capitalism extract maximum value from your labor.
The rich are convinced there is only enough for them and that they must prevent you from having more to stay rich. In addition to that the rich think they are better people because they are rich. They dont give money away to actually help, they do it because it makes them feel like good people. Thanks in part to evangelicalism in the US there is also a perception that being wealthy is a blessing from God, so people who are poor, must not be with God. If the poor are not with God, then they should be punished for being Godless, which means they should be punished for being poor.
When you hear the phrase “eat the rich” its critique of this capitalist system that pushiness the poor and hungry for the gain of a few fragile ego’s.
You want change? Then we need to replace the government with people who are working class, and not class traitors like Fettermen. Find progressive and socialist candidates like Bernie Sanders, Zohran Mamdani, Platner, and people who stand up for the many like Jasmine Crockett, AOC, and Katie Porter.
- Comment on What's a realistic, low-power home server setup in 2025 for Plex/Jellyfin, Nextcloud, and reliable backups? 2 months ago:
Zimablade/board or 1L used biz pc with an i5 10th Gen or better.
These things pull almost no power and often have room for an m.2 and SATA-SSD.
- Comment on Are you friends with any AI bots? 2 months ago:
how many tokens can you get to with your current system? I find that some of the models are so verbose that I only get 3-5 questions in before I run out of tokens.
I have one system with 128gb system ram, 16gb vram, and one system with configurable vram up to 48gb out of a total of 64gb.

- Comment on Wall mounts for wood stove heat shield 3 months ago:
Get some copper pipe and cut them in 25mm sections with a hacksaw. Predrill pilot holes into the studs and through the heat shield.
Using some lag bolts secure the shield to the wall with the pipe as a standoff.
The amount of thermal transfer from the bolts is not enough to be a concern.

So we dont like the 1st amendment?
Trump is a sissy boy with no sense of humor and he likes to gargle Putin’s pee. Biden is a racist status quo member of the patriarchy who thinks BBQ Palistinian kids taste like pepperoni. Obama is a spineless war criminal and gets off on the photos of Anwar al-Awlaki and Abdulrahman al-Awlaki extra judicial killing. WB is a war criminal who was duped by his Dad’s Yes Man but did not have the backbone to say he was wrong about Iraq. Clinton is a serial rapist and child molester and is protecting his friend Donald Trump by using his connections to prevent the release of the Epstine files.
