There’s some power sipping mini ITX boards that are intended for servers. They are Intel N150 based and let you add a ton of ram. I have one in a Jonsbo NAS case with 6 drives in a ZFS pool. If you’re inclined to build your own, you have lots of options.

Terry v. Ohio is the reference here. Unless there is articulable suspicion that a crime is afoot, the detention is, by definition, illegal. Driving while brown (or existing while brown) does not qualify as articulable suspicion of a crime. Therefore, this is an illegal detention - otherwise known as kidnapping. Defending yourself against kidnapping is an understandable position one might take. It might be unwise however, given the criminal justice system is overwhelmingly stacked in favor of law enforcement. That is a personal choice we are free to make so long as we understand the likely consequences of our actions.

Perhaps about something like - how he wants Mike to open up about their secret relationship and how his love for Mike is more genuine than that of Mike’s wife. And the futility of that becomes even more meaningful in this moment of Mike’s capitulation and the reality of Mormonism itself.

US papers have become the new Pravda and Ezvyestia. There’s no news in the truth and no truth in the news.

Tailscale.

Jellyfin. Tailscale. Bob’s your uncle.

Proper dumbass. Bigly.

He knows he’s tanking. This is just a way to distract the dumbass base that believes in flat earth and unicorns.

Biden screwed the pooch on this one. Don’t promise something like this that you can’t - or know you won’t - deliver.

“But he thought he could and met with unanticipated partisan resistance”, you say.

Really? You surround yourself with the smartest, Ivy League educated staff and cabinet picks and none of them anticipated that and/ or alerted you to the eventual legal and political roadblocks.

Not buying it. Almost impossible that this outcome was not predicted.

Add the reversal of bodily autonomy, the expiration of the child tax credit and a host of quality of life downgrades and you’re losing voters.

Engaged in amorous behavior with a woman some years younger than him.

Is there some underlying assertion here that woman enjoy sex less than dudes? Or that sex is some kind of favor to men on the part of women without mutual enjoyment? Not having sex with someone is pretty easy if that other person is a shitty person. Otherwise I think both genders enjoy genuine intimacy and physical contact by someone they enjoy being around.

I wonder how that works logistically. Does he just take his dirty diaper off and then proceed to the e-coli fueled UTI party with his shit covered junk?

Dewine says he can’t remove the dude here: https://www.wkyc.com/video/news/local/3news-at-6/gov-mike-dewine-calls-portage-county-sheriffs-comments-about-harris-supporters-very-unfortunate/95-4f3b90dd-1cf8-4243-a148-c90ed821c38a

but the Ohio revised code seems to suggest he can? https://codes.ohio.gov/ohio-revised-code/section-3.08

I’m kind of a big deal

I guess that might be right. As of today, the iPad Pro is basically a laptop when attached to the magic keyboard. It only has a single thunderbolt port but can connect to an external display with caveats. Apple scuppers the experience by forcing you to have the iPad display open when connected to the monitor. I’m essentially looking for an experience like Samsung Dex where I get a desktop experience when docked - but a portable experience when on the go. I’m sure they could easily do this but choose not to in order too avoid eating into MacBook sales.

An iPad pro that has multiple thunderbolt ports and connect to a 4/5k monitor in clamshell mode. I dare you, Apple.

Well I don’t have a dog in the AI fight. I did sufficiently couch my comments as a thought experiment. I could have postulated the opposite scenario I suppose. Or none at all. I do see that there are some strong and confident predictions as to the outcomes.

Wait til AI takes prominence. What effect on intellectualism that might have remains to be seen. As long as LLMs aren’t tailored to bias certain views, it may just lift humanity.
