That’s a great point lol.
Yeah, they’re so anti-immigration, but higher education is still behind one of the most absurdly inflated paywalls in the country, and you can’t find a job that wants to actually train anybody anymore.
Who’s gonna do this stuff?
What absolute geniuses. Prosperity is right around the corner. /s
"“We found the gold that was in Fort Knox! It was just sitting there. We could just use that. America will be so rich with all this gold Sleepy Joe and his people wanted to keep from all of us. We’re gonna take this gold. It’ll be the best thing. Lotsa lotsa gold. It’s a lotta gold. Gold…yeah.”
Said President Musk’s little orange pet on Monday."
/s
Unless this already happened in our reality…man I wouldn’t even be surprised anymore…
Not gonna lie before I read your handle I thought these were all named after ways of passively-aggressively clearing your throat. 😂
“error: hostname must not be left blank.” lol
I just read this as:
you’re sat in front of a CEO
the fun stops.
Agreed. Lol
“Have you been to the cloud district lately? Oh what am I saying, of course you haven’t!”
Ha! Clever and humerus!
Like after specific Terminator models, or characters or…?
Lol just had a funny thought:
“What’s the server’s name?”
“Max”

“Your server is pwned…”
Slightly unrelated but when my family was remodeling our kitchen in the home I grew up in, we pulled the oven out and found the side of the cabinet had an interesting scrawl on it that must’ve been from one of the builders:
“When you’re out of Schlitz, you’re out of beer.”
I found it so amusing wondering what the motive behind that was. So I guess your hostnames kinda reminded me of hidden beer-related tradesman graffiti. XD
One possibility could be because in conventional “computer counting” in (most) coding languages, it starts at zero. Like if I make an array of things
[]
monke would be []
chimp would be[]
peanut would be []
Once I learned about this concept I started naming enumerated things from 0 usually just to keep a kind of consistency. Maybe I think if it’s a habit, I won’t make those mistakes as often with code. I dunno. :p
Lol your arr stack.
"Jen what did you do?! I told you never open that door!"
I bet your whole network is connected by CAT. :P

That’s hilarious. Now I wanna set up a Wi-Fi hotspot with that SSID at a local library or something for lulz.
Something like “LG Dishwasher”.
Gotta say, from what I’ve heard from the trenches, “insanity” and “madness” sound like fantastic names for printers or print servers, but the router also makes perfect sense! Lol
For my ProxMox server stuff I went with Lord of the Rings. The idea being the servers would be locations and the VMs would characters.
So right now my main server is Rivendell, and my PiHole on it is Gandalf (“You shall not pass!” Heehee eventually he’ll have OPNSense too…)
If I get HomeAssistant at some point, obviously that’ll be Samwise!
My Klipper VM for 3D printing is Celebrimbor, and the individual printers are named after various deities or myth figures of crafting/smithing/creativity like Brigid and Eitri.
For my client devices, I name my personal hardware after BattleTech mechs and that works well. It’s intuitive because I can line up various roles and weight classes.
So my main desktop is Timberwolf, and my laptops are named after light mechs like Kitfox or Mistlynx.
Phones and tablets I don’t really care about, they usually just name themselves after their model anyway. :)
This is the most solar punk answer ever! XD Love it. That’s really neat. I struggle so much with naming schemes.
Lots of good responses here. That’d be a really scary find, OP, and I’m sorry you’re dealing with that. :(
As much as I also long for justice, I also totally understand the inclination towards just nuking and paving the whole thing and moving on. Some factors that occurred to me:
I agree with others that you should only move forward under the guidance of a good lawyer, because you don’t want to be the most convenient potential suspect they have access to.
If you could log their IPs or other identifying data and anonymously forward suspicions to authorities that would take action on them, that could potentially be a viable option. But again I’d ask a lawyer.
I agree. (Digital artist here) I hate the Ai hype machine madness but also understand trying to find ways to make it ethical and useful to eliminate tedium. As it should be for in the first place.
In the tech sphere, they likely have to play along to stay relevant since everybody’s all hyped about it.
How’s this local LLM of yours? Does it tend to be more accurate than Recognize? It’s integrated into Nextcloud?
Recognizing objects and people in pictures locally is one of the best uses I think. …and maybe if it can stop auto-tagging random EDM songs as “country” or “rap” when they sound nothing like, I’d be excited about that!😂
Maybe at the higher end of things, in the nice neighborhoods.
Lots of us are wondering by now when that whole “… Against enemies foreign and domestic.” clause will kick in for the supposed defenders of the Constitution, seeing as we’ve got plenty of both in the Casa Blanca right now. Still waiting…
As for the working class: A majority of folks are just constantly bombarded socially and civically by a thousand little dictators. Their bosses, the landlords, the grocery chains, the media, their utility companies, whatever. They keep having to scramble to find the next thing to keep themselves above water. There’s so much noise.
They don’t know who to trust, or where to start.
And it’s structured in such a way that it’s so individualized, and difficult to create a rallying banner to do anything meaningful under. When most people are a single missed paycheck from abject poverty, how can you convince them to take up arms, much less go protest, or whatever?
Also the democratic party has poured tons of money into making liberals (not leftists) terrified of gun-like objects, so you’d have to train them on how this whole use of force thing works before arming them. They’d probably still refuse and decide buying matching outfits was solidarity enough for one day. ✊ Lol
That’s the real struggle we have right now: Nobody knows each other, and the “radicals” who would organize are sometimes more focused on maintaining absolute ideological purity rather than rallying various viewpoints under the same cause.
Then you gotta figure out what moves would actually hurt the bottom line of the oppressors. And we’re back to “Why didn’t they just do this to their bosses ages ago then?”
Because it’s the same people. Orange Menace / Krasnov / and his puppetmasters want to “run the country like a business.” Like (y)our bosses. They want to be petty, and isolate workers, and cut incomes, and demand more than ever. It’s just suddenly really bad because the moderately privileged realize “Just get a better job then lol.” is even less practical than it was, when you’re talking an entire country’s economy sliding down the hole.
This is all by design, it’s the same tactics that shitty retail work might use to keep employees feeling powerless and miserable, with the stakes and scale multiplied.
We saw some movement with the AntiWork crowd, because they would educate each other on unions, and share their stories of standing up to their bosses, and quitting defiantly. We need that kind of ideological action x20.
If you could defy the fascists in some meaningful way, and know that you’d have people backing you up, that could be powerful. Powerful enough that we wouldn’t have to fire a shot. But I don’t think we’ll be THAT lucky.
