What country is that?

This is important. I dunno about scale, but backups. I started out hosting a chat room on a raspberry pi. It was a fun side project. But then, that became where my friends all hung out. That was the place, so it became important to me. And then the SD card got corrupted. I then moved on to a consumer laptop. It was way more stable, much faster. But if I messed up anything about the installation, I was hosed.

I very highly suggest using Proxmox, like you say, and setting up automatic backups. And occasionally transfer them to a hard drive. It doesn’t matter what kind of virtual CPUs or services you install, [email protected], as long as you have a plan for when something you host becomes important to you and you lose it.

What makes you think that?

Fair. The rest of the site is a lot more normal. More being a relative term, of course.

Good news.

the mbin team says some things that I find concerning about kbin

What are they saying?

Just like we drew it up.

And hundreds of thousands of years of evolution pre-training the base model that their experience was layered on top of.

Feeling very Clardic Fug today.

Any reasons why you can’t recommend it?

Interesting, because I saw a 20 point increase between vanilla Firefox and Mercury when testing last night.

That’s not a bad idea. Surely it could be automated within the image. If my ADHD allows me I might take a look at it later. :D

Looking at the installation instructions, it requires you to run database migrations manually with every image docker image update. Does this mean that running watchtower is going to bork this thing?

Proxmox on physical servers hosting a variety of vanilla Debian installations. I have a physical router running pfsense as well as two HP miniservers running OpenMediaVault.

Sorry about the “UPDATE” part if that was unclear, I just used the exact heading on the website due to the “no editing/editorializing” rule.

The video this guy posted with the severed head has him going on a screen against the federal government and illegal immigrants.

Do you actually figure that the remainder of the military which doesn’t turn traitor is gonna be outnumbered by the seceding traitors in this civil war scenario?

Not at all.

Did you also account for the metric fuckton of able bodied people who would enlist during an open war to stomp out Fascism at home in the open like that?

I’m sure there would a lot more than fascists willing to actually fight.

It would absolutely lead to much blood shed on both sides.

That was my actual point. Not that New Texas has any chance of actually winning.

You’re probably right, and I used overly broad language. I’m sure there would be targeted strikes. But any strike against infrastructure would be what I would consider a Big Deal™. Everything is so interconnected now that taking out the power grid, for example, would wreak havoc on all the innocent civilians in the area. Just look at how shit hit the fan when Texas lost power in the winter.

I just think it would be a much more complicated situation than either argument of “we have all the guns, libruls” or “we have Predator drones, conservatard”. I’m used to conservatives making stupid arguments. It bothers me more when I see my side do it.

But hey, maybe I’m the idiot and it would all work out with targeted strikes. That’s why I’m just some guy on the internet and not a general in the Army or whatever.

Anything is possible I guess, even if I personally wouldn’t bet money on it. Then again I’m just a guy and no one in power is gonna ask my opinion. They very well may surprise me and bomb Jethrow’s compound or downtown Houston.

My original flippant response was triggered from the ease with which people think the US military is some unstoppable force and the Republicans that do this nonsense would easily be put down. I think it is a lot more complicated than that and no course of action would be easy and painless. That’s wishful thinking on behalf of us lefties.

For all his faults, Donald uniquely has the charisma to pull this act off. His children are all rizzless goofs. My personal feeling is that anyone trying to do “The Trump” will fail miserably. What we’re more likely to see is someone else come along with a different style but that’s also charismatic.
