i think their point is if you want to comment make a google account and comment… or dont.

personally, it boggles the mind why anyone would want to do that.

beauty. this should make leaving to other fediverse platforms more attractive to that audience.

i really like the idea of civilization… but its so freakin scripted it feels like im playin someone elses story.

totk is almost a masterpiece, i would not hate more of that kind of game play/world experience.

why not both?

no actual product available, lets spam it everywhere. awesome.

hard not to feel like someone isnt countin eggs as chickens here

i am speaking from experience working in a large, k-12 [public] environment and watching brand new teachers discuss their degrees, and their pay.

In most cases of actual teachers in the government run, public school setting, who were trained as teachers, they end up having to get a Masters degree and additional continuing education for as long as they remain a teacher.

incredibly community specific, and rules are often completely bent or ignored

Another urban legend that needs to go away is the idea that teachers only work 9 months out of the year.

i dont know anyone who believes this old nonsense.

lets not forget that one of the methods of eroding public education is by reducing teacher education requirements.

they can pay less educated people less, and they do. you barely need a degree to be a teacher in the united states, and it pays so little it would be funny if it wasnt so incredibly sad.

i suspect this falls under the golden rule of 3… price,quality,[ethics].

you get to pick 2

in the united states, prolly more so. yes.

you can buy raw cookie dough thats meant to be eaten uncooked. and not some niche thing, its at all the big box grocery stores. its no stretch to imagine why a half-baked cookie might be a thing

no mention of the solid push into fascism by the propaganda machine fox news?! wtf

dhcp is the only service that would allocate the address. if you use an address outside of a dhcp scope, youre fine in that it wont be automatically used.

now, this is kinda different per manufacturer… but in some routers generally setting/assigning a static to an mac address is just forcing a little mini 1-to-1 dhcp scope your incoming mac to the ip you set.

cant wait for the next post, ‘water is wet’

so much insight

well, i do try and keep all my data hot in the server… i am using the devices as redundancy, so no raid anywhere. 24Tb with 3 copies.

ive got a couple of 6-bay readynas i got second hand and a plain ol’ ubunutu workstation i crammed with 6 drives and an ssd.

app server runs off 6 local disks(and an ssd for os) which are replicated to the 2 nas as logical (they pull), the workstation gets a drive-for-drive physical

rsync is your friend.

one piece i highly recommend is running your torrent solution in a container with the network set to a gluetun container. no fuss, no muss, vpn’d torrenting.

for the nas piece, im a big fan of the nas device being single purpose. its life should only exist in fileserving. i have several redundant nas devices and then a big ol app server.

my goal is the ron popeil method of ‘set it and forget it’

the federal government will refuse to pay medicare/caid bills if the narrative associated is ‘too templative’ ie, if you sound like a robot using the identical phrases all the time, you get busted.

clearly cops need to be held to similar standards, and also face consequences for outright lying.

this product should be made illegal in this context. theres too much riding on it.

ya know, youre absolutely right. when im in the mood it is absolutely beautiful.

or maybe fake ports?

port knocking maybe?

sure, if you want to be that black and white about it… but with this you maybe could glean more information about the attempt and have more granular logic.
