You’re making it sound like I’m making my users walk a mile on burning coals! Yes, I do expect them to be able to be able to tie their shoelaces, install an application and scan a QR code. It’s not like they’re not getting anything in return for such “trouble”. ;)

wg-easy. Makes Wireguard dead easy.

“Exploit” is a weird way to spell “backdoor”, but ok.

As far as I’ve seen, it’s primarily designed for audiobooks, with ebooks just being tacked on. I’d advise to use a dedicated ebook service, e.g. Calibre.

Yeah, and Plex is also enshittifying. Fuck Plex. Go FOSS or go home.

I’m so angry, I’m not going to give them money three times harder!

My pihole disagrees.

Roses are red
AI is slop
My homies can’t wait
For this bubble to pop.

You can even share public links (with password protection and expiration date if you need it), and if you’re running immich public proxy, you can do so without even exposing your immich instance to the entire internet.

You’re both right, and you’re both missing the point since you’re engaging with their “save the childrun!” smokescreen.

This is about ending anonymity and privacy on the net, plain and simple.

I’m planning on making a server case entirely from the bones of my enemies. The project is currently on hiatus because my bone count is still 0.

Maybe somebody should tell this more-than-once bankrupt dipshit that you can only make use of tax deductions if you’ve made some actual profits.

Sounds orderly, doesn’t it?

Somebody help me out here. What’s the opposite of “construction” again?

You know the answer to that, and you also know that the answer does not matter. MAGA isn’t a political movement that gains or loses people’s support depending on the outcomes of its actions. It’s a cult, built around absolute faith in the leader and its ideology, and as such, it’s insulated from reality. Cults have a long history of explaining away the suffering they cause to their own members:

• The other side is pure evil, so whatever this is, the other side is worse.
• You deserve it. You’ve been a terrible person, and your suffering is your repentance.
• It’s a test of your faith. Doubts are a sign of you being weak.
• You need to hold out just a little longer. Paradise is just around the corner. (Of course, dates and goal posts constantly shift into the future…)

Just think about the suffering any past cult has managed to have people endure or inflict on others (often their own kids). Then you know no matter how much MAGAs will suffer from their own political choices, it’s not going to change their minds en masse.

In the sense that they’re bastards and now also a little poorer? Yes.

In the sense that they’ve suffered a blow of fate nobody could’ve seen coming, and are deserving of our compassion? Fuck no!

…and by buying them on Amazon, you’re filling the coffers if fascist supporter Bezos. How ironic.

At this rate, we’ll be running out of awards quickly… and free space to tack them on to.

The timing was truly impeccable this time: within hours of Trump’s newest tariff threats to the EU, a federal court struck down his latest round of global tariffs. Makes you wonder how long these EU tariffs would stand, if the orange turd didn’t TACO out of them beforehand. After all, there are plenty of Tuesdays until July…

The models you can run on consumer hardware are still nowhere near the stuff that runs in corporate data centers. To stick with your metaphor, its like running a little steam engine at home while the big guys get to operate nuclear reactors…
