Its probably a parent company situation.

Lots of corpo structures are just large parent companies that actually just own a bunch of smaller companies so that the parent company gets the profits while the smaller companies make the risky products and can be bankrupted at any minute.

The company I work for does that. We just bought a couple companies that were competitors in a risky but profitable market. The full idea is that if one company gets sued to oblivion, we let that company die, move all the employees and customers to the backup company, and call it a day.

Capitalism baby!

Probably why they didn’t do it in the first place.

They barely pay for moderation. Who is going to pay for that survey? And also why would they? Obviously most of the people on that site are under 18. That’s when I used it.

What other demographic clicks the horny ads they run?

The classic

offers to recycle

actually installs esoteric Linux distros

Classic!

Do you fear technology

Oh yes! Greatly!

Windows

Ah, a different kind of fear was meant…

I mean if someone can conceive it then yes.

Personally I do think there will always be a “class” of some sort since even among career and financial equals I still view colleagues as a different class of human.

Like I’m a camp in the woods kinda human where my coworker is a take his car to a race track kinda human.

But that’s never the class that is being discussed.

A classless society is specifically one where someone doesn’t have power over you by some financial measure. A true meritocracy as there is no financial incentive to be in those roles since it is also a moneyless society.

Utopian? Maybe. Conceivable? Yeah I can conceive what that would be like and I want to strive for it.

Maybe its not important if its possible and its just important that there are people willing to work towards it or implement something like it in their own controllable way.

Yeah I’m not doing it for the energy savings I’m doing it for personal comfort.

If I was really concerned about energy use at that scale I would simply not use a computer.

A 4060ti has been out long enough that you’re fine with basically any main stream distro.

I think even the 50 series is fine now with most mainstream distros as well.

I still prefer arch based distros now for Nvidia cards and honestly, Fedora is great!

I actually don’t even care about AI Ethics here.

Fuck Academic Dishonesty!

I usually follow the craft computing video whenever I have to set it up. He has a document in the description with all the things you might need to passthrough a GPU but only like half are needed to passthrough an HBA

Proxmox wiki has a more concise guide IMO

It was really simple to do in Proxmox.

You will find no name brand HBAs in IT mode on eBay for half the price of Intel, Supermicro, Dell, Etc branded ones. Do not buy the no names. I spent a week flashing and reflashing some cheap one, cycling through cables, etc. Nothing.

My supermicro branded one worked absolutely no issue. And I think it was like $40

It probably took a total of 30 minutes to pass it through and build the VM and everything. It took a couple days to rebuild my data from my previous truenas server but I had 10 TB of data on 4 drives.

The only issues I’ve had have been my own reading comprehension in setting up truenas accounts.

Are you using truenas as the entire homelab?

I also love messing with stuff until it breaks and I learn something, but I’ve decided I just want my files to be accessible.

So I actually have truenas virtualized with a passed through HBA so I can run proxmox to host all my breakable VMs while leaving truenas alone.

As a guy who felt the same way what 20 years ago when I played that game.

Keep it up. World needs to know.

But he did fuck up in the next campaign when he grabbed frostmourne. That was objectively a bad move.

Apparently you can turn those off but I haven’t bothered.

Is it a HUD or just a spy tool?

I gotta wear glasses anyways so it’d be cool if I can get like a pathing over lay with maps and maybe customizable notifications.

But video calling and just taking poorly framed pictures isn’t interesting.

Fair enough.

Opening ports to the network seems to “just work” or be hours of forum diving.

What OS where you using?

If you haven’t seen The Last Kingdom I heavily recommend it.

I like your vague language. It really conveys the sense of mystery and intrigue you’re going for.

So Khazars are a real active modern faction? Is it like Kabal practicing Gentile Converts?

Khazar is an interesting new identity to me.

Cursory google search says it was a trade empire that lasted 200 years and converted to Judaism.

Off topic to the rest of the post, but I’m now deeply curious what a modern day Khazar is and what it means to you. Please enlighten me!

Considering Randy REALLY wants you to pay $130 USD for this game, I’m not shocked his performance advice was “be less poor”

Honestly, I mostly liked the Luke bits of episode 8.

The whole trying to kill Kylo thing was dumb, but everything else was fun IMO.
