Welcome to the new Dark Ages, brought to you by religious fascists.
Democrats dont fetishize about violence against minorities for "not voting right" challenge(impossible)
I switched to a French Press recently-ish. Instead of 4 or 5 cups of weaker coffee from my single serve drip thingie, I have 2 strong cups from my French Press and am ready to go. I'm thinking about trying a pourover to see how that is. Espresso is tasty and strong, but I don't think I'd want it NEARLY enough to justify a machine. I usually only do espresso when I'm traveling, makes me feel fancy having a latte in the big city haha.
All that said, coffee is very individual. There is no "right" answer. If you're happy with drip, than drip is the way. :)
So why not use a dripper?
Whereas a drip just passes through the coffee, a French Press is more of a steep. You get a stronger taste from it than you would on a drip.
Espresso is a whole other thing, expensive to get into at home. It uses a much finer grind and (IIRC) the water is pushed through under pressure.
Makes sense to me.
Funny how Congress "can't just legislate over SCOTUS" but only when it's an issue of human rights. Corporate rights or Capital interests? BULLDOZE THAT DECISION BABYYYY
Surprising absolutely nobody.
Thats the fun part, people consider dems "far left" because...... Reasons, I guess? This country is so far right just the idea of building more housing counts as communist.
The biggest misconception about "the South" is that its contained to the South. Culturally, "the South" is everywhere more than 20-30 minutes out of any population center.
Well she's in for a hard time from both sides of the aisle. Godspeed, lady.
Big bearded cishet mountainy fucker here for y'all both conceptually and have put word out around locally that I'm free all day if anyone feels unsafe going alone.
Nah, internet commenters are definitely crows.
KHHAAANNNNNNNNNNNN
I watched an immigrant buy the house across the street and turn it into a compound, build a business with undocumented folk he kept in campers outside his house, and now that its established he ditched the campers, flys Trump flags, and advocates for mass deportation.
The "I got mine" mentality is strong.
You love imagining yourself living rent free in our heads, but unfortunately for you, we dont give a fuck about you or your quarter assed troll bullshit.
Idk what you said to get moderated, but enjoy running back to .world and crying censorship because you faced consequences.
It strips the tracking data to and from the engines, so if you tuck it behind a vpn, GG.
You have a differing opinion and therefore are a bad faith actor

EDIT: For people claiming to be the "sane" ones, y'all sure have a compulsive need to win anonymous internet arguments by digging deep through a stranger's history for anything you can use then blocking them.
Very sane. much adult.
So over liberals JFC
If these didnt upload correctly let me know I'll delete the post. Conversation I just had in a local discord where dude didn't even read my comment and attacked me for not being onboard with Harris and fed me a fearmonger. So over fucking dem voters man.
I just dont have any leftists in my life to gripe with, sorry. 🤣
EDIT: Ive always gotten on well with this dude and we agree on a lot, which really made it worse that he didnt bother reading what I wrote. I just deleted my comments and left the server (its just a small side server for our area anyway.)
Sitting in cars as a pasttime
Everyone I know, even more "progressive" people, treat me like a damn alien for not prioritizing getting a new car since mine died over covid.
Why does nobody blink an eye at this habit people have of just..... Sitting in their car in the driveway? Its not on, there's no music, they aren't leaving - they're just sitting there for an hour or more. I see it fairly often, but if I mention it being odd people look at me like I'm dumb. Are we really THAT car centric now that it's this normalized to be like "fuck my living room, fuck my TV, fuck my couch, I just wanna sit in my car all day?"
What should I look for in a mini PC to upgrade
Howdy All! I've been self hosting some services on a pi 4 for a year or two now and have been fiddling with new services lately. I realized I'm pushing 60% or so of RAM and maxing out the SWAP file while fiddling with things. I currently just set up a nightly reboot as a temporary solution but I'm thinking about picking up a mini PC of some sort to replace it with, and wanted to get input from the community (Read: people smarter than me haha.)
I'm happy to hear any preferences anyone would care to share on hardware. I know obviously more RAM is key, as far as I'm aware CPU isn't super important and any recent-ish box will probably have a fine enough processor in it, and of course I'll probably end up getting a bigger external drive to hook up to it but that's not a big deal.
Also, I'm currently running docker/portainer on an OMV core, just how I learned/got into self hosting. Should I take the opportunity to learn Kubernetes or some other big boy system? I've not done alot of reading into it but I know clusters are gaining steam these days even for self hosting, would that be valuable to learn more about as a hobbyist/enthusiast/whatever? I'm fairly competent and used to have some CompTIA certs but as such I know better than to unnecessarily complicate my life lol. It sounds cool but I don't see a use case in my personal usage.
Thank y'all for your time and knowledge!
I'm currently running: Baikal, Bookstack, Bitwarden, Duplicati, Filebrowser, freshrss , Linkwarden, Apache, Navidrome, nginx, portainer, rpi-monitor, searxng, stirlingpdf, syncthing, watchtower,
I'm considering: Nextcloud, Maybe a game server or two depending on the needs?, Whatever else seems interesting, I guess :P
