Trans woman | She/her | From Atlanta. 20+ years experience machining. I like to make video edits based on Star Trek, with the occasional meme.
All too appropriate, and frightening.
I mean sure, that would be great, but I don’t have that.
It is an issue for me because the only machine I have is my daily driver laptop, and I’d really rather not take up even that 35GB if it can be helped.
OK, this bot is very useful. Thanks to … whoever.
You are quite right in that it is not a cheap VMS. Since I don’t know 100% how to set thing up, though, the cost might be worth my time.
I may just pay for it and report back as a service to the community.
Ok, but I’ve only a remote idea of what you’re saying. Can you elaborate?
Thanks, I’ll look into this stuff.
I’ve been waiting for the free Oracle cloud to open up (I know that’s super rare). Is there a goof VPS you can recommend?
Yeah, that’s partially why I’d need info as to if this Lemmy host is legit. I have the domain (technically), and if the price jumps I’d be ok with that. I paid upfront for a couple years at $1/yr. Yeah, the registrar might screw me over, but at the price I’ve paid, there’s not a lot of risk. I really need feedback on the Lemmy host.
Eh, a lot of scam preachers have infamously done just that. What makes it unrealistic is the practical range for Bluetooth. And even if they figured that out, since they were not inside her ears canals they’d be effectively speakers which the mic would catch.
They are likely already tired of that.
The Atlanta metro is MASSIVE. I am technically in it. Atlanta Metro != Atlanta. If you drive through the metro Atlanta area, you’re going to see things like permanent Trump signs made out of wood and concrete. Yes, I’m aware that not everyone around me is a MAGAt, however I should film me driving from where I am (about 45 mins north of Atlanta) to Atlanta, back again, and then north. It is everywhere, including entire suburbs. All of this insanity is caused by religious stupidity which stemmed from Jerry Falwell standing to lose money from desegregation. There are hundreds of thousands of evangelicals that have been duped into believing that if a liberal has ever said anything, you’d go to Hell for agreeing. No, this is not hyperbole.
I lost my father recently. He was actually an incredibly intelligent man. He designed the microwave communications systems on the Hubble. Why am I mentioning this? He was actually intelligent and made a career from science based observations (he would often remind me that things are really hard to measure), but religion forced him to be stupid. That’s the serious power of religion - even if you have observed different mechanics on a scientific level you will do everything you can to mentally disprove such a theory if it might mean that you’ll go to Hell.
I still miss him. He taught me machining, and the material science problems that go with it (alongside trigonometry). What I don’t miss is the ability of a church to to spend decades making someone think that conservatism is generally positive since JERRY FALWELL STOOD TO LOSE MONEY FROM DESEGREGATION.
I just got finished replacing the 4 Trump flags of my neighbors with Klingon Empire flags. I wasn’t entirely stupid. I wore gloves and placed their flags at their door.
I have to admit, the idea of them being tied in GA really doesn’t seem right. There are Trump flags and yard signs everywhere around here. I know there are a lot of people in Atlanta, but I do struggle to see it being enough to make a poll like this seem to be tied. It’s like this all across the northern third of the state (that’s basically anywhere I ever go) and I hate it so much.
I always love to see Spaceballs references in the wild, but this one in this particular context is simply brilliant.
Yeah, that’s part of it, but I’m not willing to post stuff in this kind of context without a ready source.
It started with Jerry Falwell standing to lose money from desegregation. Here is an article / short podcast from NPR that lays most of it on the table.There is more to the story, but I was unable to find a good source in the short time I was willing to search.
My biggest gripe with Organic Street Maps (and every OSM) client that I’ve tried is that I can’t find a way to display the destination address when I get close. I do some delivery work and that drives me crazy. Otherwise, it’s great.
