The Indian in the cupboard? But I don’t remember if he was a toy or not.

I just wonder if plex will ever sell the list of movies and IP address of everyone. Many people have the ARRs to auto download, even stuff still in theaters. What good is a VPN when plex knows your email and IP.

Relationships are built on trust. Cheating breaks that trust. That trust will never fully come back 100%. There so always be doubt and it will never be the same.

The clue I see is none of the employers ever get in trouble for hiring illegals.

I would much rather have legal immigration be easier, cheaper, faster.

Let them in, let them work, let them pay taxes, let them be free and part of the country they want to be in. They want to be here so badly they are willing to commit the crime of being here illegally and working hard for very little money. it’s gross how often they are taken advantage of.

This is what I am going with now, I canceled my domain when moving and now I get a letter that I have money at patreon but can not log in without 2fa from the email on that domain, but it’s expensive now. I am loosing money when I need it most.

I also have the xreal glasses, they are great (as long as you keep your head still). I really enjoy them for playing games. Lots of people use them for movies and tons of other uses. It’s like having a huge OLED tv on the wall.

I just moved across states.

I took everything apart, packed the equipment in boxes using tons of padding. Any extra space in the boxes was filled with extra cables and more padding. Rack mounts that I have come completely apart.

My main servers have hard drives, so I used a lot of foam all around the server and added trackers (air tags) to the servers and my camera stuff.

I’m now off grid so not really in a hurry to setup all this stuff, but happy it seems to have made it here in great condition. Eventually I will setup the rack mounts just to hold the equipment and maybe I will power on things here and there as I feel like playing with them again.

I think I learned about knoppix from the TV show “the screen savers” in the early 2000s. Played with it a few times on old laptops, scanning for open Wi-Fi lol

My wife and I met ages ago. We were friends for a while. Went on some dates, and eventually got together. I think we were dating about 8 years before getting married, we knew we were compatible. We didn’t rush anything.

I got married in Vegas, it was a very affordable wedding. That was almost 10 years ago.

If one of us dies, being married is a very easy way to make sure the other person inherits everything they need to survive.

I also see how impressed older people are when we say we are married, it seems so few people get married anymore.

There are so many good reasons to get married. Just be sure before jumping in that both are on the same page of life and goals, compatibility, compromise and understanding, etc.

Yea, it’s been super nice. Mine can be powered by 120V AC or 12-24V DC. I’m using the 24V DC so I can still use the 12V outlet on my BLUETTI for other things. It’s been working great.

That is how our iceco fridge is, it opens at the top like a cooler.

We do have a lot of wind most of the year, my neighbor gave me 2 wind power generators, but I need to get them and install them.

I was saying that when it’s really rainy the clouds will block the solar, so I might need a gas power generator to keep my batteries going. We have only been here a few months so not really sure what to expect.

Right now we are very light on power, the most power hungry is our portable iceco fridge that uses about 40w of power on and off. We have mostly rechargeable lights and phones, and my laptop that is USB-C to charge.

We are in Arizona, high elevation so it’s not as hot as the big cities. (Over 5,000 ft)

We want to order water delivery first, then collect rain water after we build a roof over the RV.

We have solar and it’s been enough for us so far, but I know when it rains during monsoon season that I may need a generator.

I’m very happy to be a land owner. Just a few months ago I bought some land and now live in an RV on the land. Tomorrow we drive about 7 hours round trip and get the last of our stuff from storage. So happy to not pay that rent anymore.

We have fresh air, beautiful views, and tons of space to work on projects, free electric from solar, and soon free water from rain. I can’t wait to start our garden soon, then it will be free groceries.

I never connected my TV to the internet, I use a computer, an Apple TV or other box like that, etc always using external hdmi devices.

Practice daily, any chance you get. Then see how far you get and if you enjoy doing it.

One time in the mid 2000s my friend and I were on a hike in the mountains and we found a tree that was like a cave, all branches everywhere except a little entrance. Inside we found porn magazines with the pictures ripped out and placed on branches all over the inside of the “cave”. After that we always joked about the porn cave we found.

I run Linux mint with Nvidia card and no problems gaming, basically every game I tried worked (don’t forget to check protonDB and see how to get some games running, but most work right away).

As for dual booting, you need to worry about Microsoft doing evil and trashing the boot loader after an update. Windows is a mess, it spies on you, it boots your computer at 3 am to do updates, and it reboots when your doing work you haven’t saved. So happy I switched. (I do have an old MacBook that has macOS and windows for the few things that need windows or Mac such as modding tools (hardware flashing tools and such but I only use it a few times a year).
