Sure, but that thing is 4 lanes in either direction. That’s a lot of asphalt for a whole bunch of nothing.

Ensuring data availability, of course.
I do have concerns how the incoming ~fascists~ “administration” in the US will handle encryption, VPNs, etc, and what that will entail for privacy and acquisition of certain types of data. I’m confident the internet will always find a way, but it’ll definitely be interesting to see what happens in the coming years. I’ve been on a download spree as if late because I’ll be damned if media corps have free range to bleed us dry to listen to music and watch movies, nevermind what conservatives will try to censor next.

You do have to be careful here, because some localities actually require a grid connection to maintain a certificate of occupancy. Title 24 changed in recent years (here in CA), but you may still end up fighting your municipality and the POCO.

Lol the ruling class is way too thick to understand the sarcasm, they’ll think people genuinely love them. And once they figure it out, it’ll get legislation passed to make it a hate crime real quick.

- Comment on Anon's PC works 2 weeks ago:
I recently repurposed a xeon CPU/motherboard from 2012 to run my Proxmox server. Bought a rack mount case, noctua fans, new ram, cpu cooler, and gavie it a good thorough cleaning. Not blazing fast, but does the job.

They’re online, but specialty lighting stores will sometimes sell them as well. Here in SoCal, we have a chain called Lamps Plus that sells them.

I was gonna say, sounds like no one wanted to pony up for a crane, flatbed, and disposal. I dig the paint job creativity though.

Find a better therapist. Just because someone goes to school and gets a professional credential doesn’t mean they don’t suck at their job.

This is why I moved out of a metropolis to a small mountain town. We have our share of assholes and dipshit tourists, but a lot of people genuinely care up here and it’s much easier to be of that mindset when you’re around people of a similar ilk.

Hell, I VPN into my home network all the time to access my self hosted work applications, it’s 10x more secure than leaving ports open to the wider internet.

I dunno, I’ve just come to accept some people are cranky and down vote because they feel like it, but also too that while something makes sense to me it may not be as palatable across the board ¯_(ツ)_/¯

- Comment on A landlord special. 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, if there is no ground present (ie a 2 wire cable in a plastic or ungrounded metal box), they just won’t trip as the ground prong is effectively isolated.
While not the best idea, you can usually derive a quick ground from a plumbing pipe, assuming copper or galvy pipes (pex obviously won’t work), or a metal gas pipe. I’ve done it in a pinch when a proper system ground wasn’t feasible, but only as a temporary measure.
