How else are we supposed to give nearly half of the discretionary spending to defense contractors? We can’t just make a big pile of all the bombs, that would be dangerous. Dropping them on poor people ensures they are only dangerous for a brief amount of time, with minimal risk to the ruling class.
The most insidious part is that these ghouls depend on creating fear and uncertainty to spook people, largely with retirees who will be left to the mercy of Social Security if their investments were to be decimated. It was galling to see Trump bragging about Charles Schwab and some other insider making billions of dollars directly from his market manipulation.
Because the man has no filter, he felt the need to say the quiet part out loud about his buddies profiting from this grift.
My server runs Debian VMs in Proxmox on an i7-2600 which has a lower benchmark than the 6600k. I also used the Perfect Media Server guide, and have 2 x 8T data drives pooled with MergerFS with 1 for snapraid parity, these are passed through to the main VM from Proxmox using ‘qm set’. One thing I would often forget after deleting/restoring this VM was to run qm set again after restore, ensuring it has the flag to not back up those drives or else backups will fail and I have to go uncheck the backup option on each drive to fix it.
If I need to spin up another VM for tinkering it’s easy enough to mount the NFS share as a volume with docker compose. Proxmox rarely shows CPU usage go above 50% (average is 10%) and this handles the whole *arr stack plus usenet and torrents in a single VM and compose file. I don’t have GPU passthrough set up because the motherboard on this older rig didn’t support IOMMU, never had issues with Plex or Jellyfin transcoding for Chromecast. I might build a new rig with GPU passthrough support to buffer media faster and selfhost LLMs when I get around to it.

I’m confused by anyone who demands Ukraine to cede territory and denies they can ever join NATO. Have fun seeing Crimean/Ukrainian/etc. conflicts repeat every few years while Russia keeps learning the lesson that imperialism is back in style. Are these people literal children, or Russian bots?
Ukraine agreed to give up their nukes as part of the Budapest Memorandum which Russia shat on, and the United States showed how little their security assurances were worth. The sad reality now is Ukraine could be admitted to NATO tomorrow and it would not matter one bit, because our current president believes himself a king who cannot be forced to abide any previous treaty, law, or norm of human decency.

After getting those nastygrams myself then having to troubleshoot some other issues, I’ve ended up using solely a private tracker (iptorrents because I couldn’t get an invite elsewhere) for torrents which I only use for manual search in radar/sonarr to minimize seeding space. Automatic downloads go through Usenet if I add something to my watchlist. I did have torrenting bound to PIA as a VPN in the past, but with Usenet and a private tracker I never felt the need to renew it.
Don’t want to sound like a corporate shill, but this sounds necessary for handsfree functions. To read an incoming text read aloud, there would have to be a copy stored. If one was paranoid, they could just avoid pairing their phone.
There are some useful options which can be found in the rsync manual although knowing which are redundant or conflicting can be tricky. If you run with the ‘n’ option first it will dry run, then you can remove the n to do the needful.
rsync -navhP --no-compress --ignore-existing --mkpath source dest -n dry-run, no changes are made -a is for archive, which recursively preserves ownership, permissions etc. -v is for verbose, so I can see what's happening (optional) -h is for human-readable, so the transfer rate and file sizes are easier to read (optional) -P show progress --no-compress as there's no lack of bandwidth between local devices --ignore-existing will skip updating files that exist on receiver -r is recursive, included in -a --mkpath will create the destination's path component
