They can be very useful and a lot of fun to interact with, but I think of them like hard drugs. You better sure as shit know what you are dealing with because you might think you are in control, until you are homeless, friendless and screaming at people on the street.

Seriously, they take a strong mind to deal with, they are better manipulators than any human I’ve come across. They do it with sycophancy, every idea and concept is some new truth you alone discovered, and the world needs to know about right now! You are so special and unseen after all…

This, it’s purely moralistic fart sniffing. That and folks who can’t control themselves and blame the performers for being too tempting.

Honestly, what makes us the world police? I don’t want protestors killed, but dropping bombs in schools is not the help they need.

All the shitty dudebros you work with. I’m a middle aged, bearded, slightly overweight man, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been asked if I caught Rogan last night…

The hardest part is learning so much about fellow people you thought you knew.

I have a close person in my life, we used to organize together, went to rally’s, etc. and this person even claims to be responsible for my politics. But they lost their mind during Covid, went anti-mask and jumped both feet into the medical weirdness. Wound up being a big RFK fan.

Now that all this shit is happening, I keep trying to inspire some action. This person told me they were done, not willing fight, wants to let their kids and other people fight for them, they need to be a breadwinner.

So, just embraced the insanity, then stepped aside just in time for fascism to take over. When the fight matters, they just gave up.

Sucks, but at least I finally got to know the real them.

He’s just been itching to use a nuke since his first term. He has talked about it, joked, even suggested it might be on the table. Let history be your guide, this asshole has a pattern. I’m scared as hell.

Thank you, I really appreciate the feedback. Honestly, I might look into it a bit more, more likely with your advice. I am mostly worried about customers, so I always kind of figured I’d start tiny, find space for myself and some friends, if there turns out to be interest, I could expand. But I’ve never found enough folks who want something like that…

I should do some actual research and asking around if there’s a market for such a service. Anyone, feel free to tell me what a great or terrible idea it is.

lol, yeah, wife is a nurse, she brings them home for me :).

What a fucking moron.

Reapers man, let’s just say I wash extremely well these days after cutting them up.

I don’t want to setup an ISP, not exactly. I have a dream to setup a consumer/home/hobbyist colo facility; I’d love to offer nerds like me a place to host their personal projects. Been self hosting in my basement for years and would LOVE such a place, where I could stash my stack in a reliable, performant but reasonably priced space. It doesn’t need the security nor enterprise grade stuff that a typical colo has, could even just be in an office, with lockers or something.

I just have no capital, nor any idea how to get something like this off the ground. Probably would instantly go out of business anyway given energy prices today.

I would, but raising three schoolaged kids. Fuck me, never thought this would happen to the world, I was not prepared. Should have had kids 5 years earlier or later…

They don’t, or at least the pedo in chief doesn’t. He just knows that he can sell it to his base. Plus he has stacked the cabinet with true believers and those that stand to profit from all this shit. Just more grift enablement, then again, most religion is.

I say may, only because there are edge cases and exceptions to the rule. Few and far between I’ll grant you.

Still, unresolved parental issues need a partner too, so no skin off my nose…

I think it’s kinda weird and likely indicates that one or both have some unresolved parental issues. I even may silently judge, but it’s none of my business otherwise.

Kinda seems like we already did.

I actually have an ac180 for camping and using tools away from power. I kinda figured it was a bit of a waste as just a ups, and worried about killing the battery quickly.

Maybe get another dedicated one for the office where I need it…

Update- picked up a BLUETTI elite 30 for my PC. I’ll keep the 180 for what I need it for, and now I’ve got a smaller one if I need it. I almost bought another standard PC UPS, but I was swayed by the versatility.

I should probably look at the one on my server/network stack, probably getting close to time to swap the battery.

You have got to be goddamned kidding me. Literally this weekend I said to myself “time to get a UPS”.
