One person can do something, but one person can’t do everything. If you are already running a farm co-op, leading a union, or so on, you simply don’t have the time to address the hundred other things you can see in the news in a single day. The point still stands, you can’t control everything, so even if you are making change on one or two points, you have to avoid being angry about the hundred other things you cannot.

I have a recursion joke. Re-read this for the punchline.

For me. I don’t care about resolution after I’ve downloaded it. Heck, I don’t need to know the resolution before downloading, I can tell by the file size.

There are some fringe benefits for blockchain but massive issues with normal human issues like:

• Scams/theft: person has the wallet lost through scam or left, how do you invalidate the lost credentials or tickets.

• Wallet loss: loss through any number of means: fire, incompetence, computer being destroyed, loss of account to cloud backup etc

• Issuer need to invalidate: if tickets/credentials were purchased by fraud or an issue occurs where they need to invalidate

How does blockchain handle these common situations?

There are 17 million new cars sold in the US every year. Somebody is buying them.

Median new car price is $46k, so $21k after tax credit for a used car is very doable for many.

They’re insanely cheap RIGHT NOW. lol

You can get a used 2018-2020 Tesla (or any other brand) for $25k and then $4k back through a tax credit.

That could be avoided by using on prem properly, too. People are very capable of making bad infrastructure whether on prem or cloud.

I watched SC2 on YouTube on and off over the years. UThermal is worth checking out, he’s a great player and super positive self-conmentator. I’m pretty sure I’ve watched SC2 a lot more than I’ve played it. Which is sort of weird for a game…

They were the GOAT for SC:BW, D2:LOD, and the first couple years of WoW.

SC2 has done well over the years but I remember being really disappointed when it came out. The original’s campaign was so gritty. Playing each race, you felt like you were in this strange scifi world. It was brilliant.

The SC2 campaign was so bad. Cartoonish, one dimensional characters. They made zerg and protoss more human like and boring. They were already focused on making their games sports, so single player was not their focus at all. I was fine with the esport focus but not at the cost of making it more cartoonish.

I used to like bootstrap. Still do. But it has some faults… Depending on your needs you’re loading a lot of CSS you aren’t using.

Bootstrap 5.3 is 59kb before gzip. 6700 lines of code. That’s a lot to just apply some simple styles.

There are a ton of lighter weight alternatives nowadays.

Client <-> vps <-> home server

I’m looking to set up exactly this for myself with a linode vps, and wireguard containers. Any tips? Even a docker compose snippet would be helpful.

Glad it is fixed. The site already feels way faster!
