Yep just use what you’ve got! I’m running my server off a little workstation I got for free from work. I’m working on setting up another server for my sister on one of her old laptops then we’ll use each other’s as off-site backups and for redundancy. Work with your friends and family to get them off big tech too! Pretty much everyone has some old system sitting around that could be brought back to life and act as a server.

Every single Republican that has been in office since I was born has started a war in the middle east. Every. Single. One. Anyone who didn’t see this coming is just a fucking moron.

They’ll show you in plenty of other ways, don’t worry.

They will conscript anyone who voted Dem or anyone whos parents voted dem first.

Exactly what dumbass didn’t expect this? Oh Magats that’s right

I supposed the Chinese are less likely to use it against us at this point.

they already had their “one of ours, all of yours” slogan and couldn’t even wait until they had a martyr to parade it out. So much for the violent left.
