VPS is not that much, especially if you aren’t storing a ton of media. Digital Ocean and Hetzner are good places to look. This will also prevent some networking headaches you’re likely to have hosting it “on prem”.

If part of your reason for doing this is to involve the kids in the process, then it’s better to do it locally. Someone in the org has or can find an unused desktop computer that you guys can have fun with for pretty much zero cost. You will probably have trouble trying to connect to it from outside your network though.

Show of hands who believes that we’ll get unaltered files that do anything but exonerate Trump? I hope nobody is really banking on any damning revelations.

Because it suits them to. That is really all there is to it. “Fascism” got such a universally bad name, that even (almost all) fascists dont want yo call themselves such. Instead, they try to use this negatively associated word to describe the people fighting against them.

If one kid getting beat up in DC warrants martial law, surely there’s a small town in Utah that’s next.

Get fucked, you fascist puke.

I am against this in all cases. Your society’s ills are never best treated with more incarceration, particularly when it comes to children.

Not surprising to me. Fuck Bill Gates. Him and Trump probably hung out together on Epstein’s island.

Damn, that’s a banger!

Because we have all been thoroughly propagandized to believe this. I think a lot of people even feel this way about themselves-- a kind of internalized hatred of themselves for being poor. Purely coincidental that everything keeps getting more expensive relative to wages!

Share some tips for that?

I can think of few things more boring than databases. I just want my files synced and stored.

We got him this time, folks!

Love my Navidrome server, though I use Substreamer on Android since it’s “free” and free.

Clearly the decades of Israeli/US propaganda against Hamas has been falling down. Truthfully, I’m pretty happy with the 60%, and expect more people will continue to open their eyes.

Wtf is wrong with the other 40%?

I already don’t have any of those things on my de-googled android. I’m used to it. Sure, they would be nice, but it’s not a dealbreaker that I have to tap a card instead of my phone, or use Bluetooth instead of carplay, or type on my phone instead of talking to it.

California has a history of combating homeless people, you mean? I want all the diverse groups of people “managed” with compassion. I have worked with homeless people in California! I can tell you that what never helps anything, is having the cops come force people to move and abandon their meagre belongings. It is a fascist impulse to sic the cops on homeless people. Not only is it cruel, but it is also pointless. The cops that have to do it don’t even believe it helps anything. They just shuffle them around from place to place.

How about don’t crow about abusing the most disadvantaged people in our communities, while pretending you’re solving anything?

Look, asshole, based on my experience living in California. Based on my ability to read newspapers with a critical eye. “Oh, well yes they are going to use police to sweep homeless encampments, but don’t worry, it will be paired with housing and supportive services!” Do you know how long it takes to build the kind of infrastructure that second part requires? Newsom can’t simply snap housing and rehab slots into existence, but he can snap police raids into existence, so that’s what he’ll do.

I was there for conferences, so it really made sense for me to stay close to them. I can’t imagine going to Vegas under any other circumstances.
