As well as any other mermaid renderers I’ve seen. Which is to say it works, but has the same drawbacks for diagrams I’ve seen everywhere else with mermaid.

“This should never have been opened.”

Shut the case.

The nightmares persist… But so do I.

Forgejo has a built in wiki capability.

I just use that, with configs in the repo.

Wow, cauldron is looking great! I saw it a long ways back (like pre-1.0) and promptly forgot about it (thanks ADHD).

Wasn’t even thinking about vtt and going to have to stand up an instance before thanksgiving!

#2 is obviously the case, we knew several days ago when Trump’s comments about her resulted in a drastic increase in threats.

You don’t have to guess, its a specific article by the NIJ that was noted.

It was also pulled by the DOJ because they didnt like what it said right after Kirk was shot.

It was, however, very quickly archived.

What NIJ Research Tells Us About Domestic Terrorism

I end up voting for who will cause the least damage, not systemic change.

100% accurate, 1000% depressing.

At least for the big elections, locally I do what I can with whatever 3rd party is up for joining in (sometimes they work with the local dems because half the time they dont even run anyone which is even more depressing)

Yes and no, there are stark differences between the parties still. That doesnt make the democrats good, but more like a hand grenade isnt as destructive as an ICBM.

Do they all serve moneyed interests? Yes. But that doesnt make them equal though by any stretch.

Functionally there are only 2, and I say that as someone way further to the left than democrats.

You’ve got a few issues at play. First, making a party is easy enough, but getting recognized by each state is a huge hurdle - namely ballot access.

To be named as the party and on the ballot, you may need to:

• Have received more than 10% of the vote in the prior election
• Get signatures equal to a percent of the voting population, but specifically at least 10% of those must come from the least populous counties
• Some states require those signatures only include voters who were both registered and eligible to vote in the previous election.

There’s more, but I think a good enough sample of the initial “fun”.

Because thats just to get on the ballot as a member of the party. After that, you still must get at least a specific percentage to have that party remain eligible for the ballot outside of an annual set of petitions, you may have to have a candidate for every election cycle, you may need to get a certain percentage (10%-20%) in the previous election to be considered a major party rather than a minor party, which changes eligibility for funds for the election among other benefits.

There’s so much more, but I think that’d enough of the pain there.

Its not about “picking a team” so much as “not being a member of a major party limits access so substantially that a minor party may as well not exist, so you may as well join a major party so you can at least vote in meaningful primaries”.

Its a manufactured issue that would take gaining power to change. So your choice becomes “party of center-right but pretends to be the left” or “go-go-gadget christofascist regime”.

Outside of local, its hard to get third parties further up the chain. Really hard. By design of the two parties that have been in control one way or another for about 175 years. There have also been swaps of stances over that time, but Democrats have been further to the left than Republicans since around the 1930s.

In short - “shits all fucked up”, but you only effectively get two parties at any scale.

Honestly with what Seagate has been doing with their externals, shucking is probably best avoided at this point.

That said, yeah, seems like and its not a perfect option either, seems like I’ll have to use multiple sources and just keep an eye out with a daily check or something.

The brother said it was not Clinton, and was not someone in politics, but led a private life.

There was no comment on Maxwell’s horse in his statement.

A recent t480 purchase may replace my second workstation tower, which I think is about to become my most powerful server in the cluster…

So nothing new hosting-wise, but that tower I can shove the spare 12tb and 4tb drives I have and net myself another 30ish TB’s of usable storage, more once I replace the 12TBs in one of my NAS boxes with 18tb or more.

Speaking of which - where the hell do I track prices these days? diskprices.com seems to be a mess of inaccurate pricing and shucks.top can no longer track even half of what they used to. What a mess.

I’m not sure when it was a good idea and I also don’t know a time when it was not being abused, if I’m being honest. At least in IT (and in general, engineering, or so I’ve heard) going back to the 90s…

Well the H1 came decades before (and still exists, its more generic), and the B was supposed to be specific gaps for skilled workers - longer term allowed, you can change jobs on this one (the original requires you to get a new visa, the h1b you just need to file a petition), allowed for a longer stay which was helpful for people trying to become citizens, it was meant to be used far, far, far less than it is today and has limited that are constantly ignored, etc,

The H1B came out in 1990, it only took a few years for companies to work around the limitations that were intended and use skyrocketed.

So probably for around 2-3 years it was a good idea.

Yes

Ceph for the proxmox cluster, 2x48 port switch + 16 port 10gbit as the core, 2xNAS (technically one is the backup, and there would be a few moments of downtime as the containers restart - a different container with the same config pointed to the backup NAS instead).

UPS and internet are the SPoF.

I’d even say it could result in some very tangible benefits for nearly the entirety of the population

Well the only way my media server goes down is if the power is out for more than a few hours or my internet connection is down.

So I’d have to say that.

Let’s go smaller. Like the top 0.01% of income/net worth.

I understood, I was just pointing out his cultists are not upstanding citizens as we would define them.

You know, with a basic grasp of humanity and the tiniest bit of empathy required to recognize the walking poop bag for what he is.
