I thought it was a good film as well. Not sure why it had all the bad press. There are many many terrible movies all the time and I believe it was unfair to this specific one which is telling an enormous story. If the second and third part form a cohesive story, I think this would be a good rainy Saturday film fest epic.

It's not perfect, I'm not here to defend it with specifics, but I did enjoy it.

Played Little Secrets with 3 other adults and then later with 2 additional teenage children. Super fun game, easy to learn, easy to play and was a lot of laughing.

Made by the same people as exploding kittens.

Also for context we play games every weekend, some intense and some relaxed. This is a relaxed game for end of the night or when the group is a little tired but wants to play something without a lot of rules.

Oh, you'll know.

The year is 2034 and 96% of the population is unemployed because they are all forced to "do their own research" on literally everything and there's no time to work. We all must research every niche topic to fully understand it before using it or the other 4% calls us stupid and lazy.

No longer are we allowed to just buy a shower head, or bike or sign up for email without sources cited and proof we know everything about said thing.

Have kids? Do their research too, no chocolate milk unless I've proven why it's good.

Elderly parents? Don't let them touch that Roku remote. I need a research paper on all the options I explored.

Sorry for all the sarcasm. I fix my house, I work, I mow the lawn and shuttle children to sports, and my friend says check this bluesky thing out, 30 seconds and I'm signed up and have a friend and a discover tab and a search that works. Life's chaotic and I don't want to be defined as stupid because I can't spend hours figuring something out in place of something I think is more important.

All this not directed at you specifically but I guess it hit a nerve.

I don't see "screwed the pooch" used much but it always is funny to me.

Green olives?

I have no idea what this will taste like but I'm intrigued.

Pixelfed is federated and the app is pretty good. It's an Instagram alternative. May be nice to have a designated spot for all your work.

At least for me, if I see something I like, I dig deeper to see what else they have.

Regardless of how you post now or in the future, thanks for sharing.

I had an Intel s2600 with dual Xeon and 120 gigs of RAM. It seems like such a good idea to run that as a home server. However, the amount of power that it used because it was older was way too much.

I ended up hunting on eBay and found an old Asus motherboard, Intel chip, ram, and a pny Nvidia card.

I bought refurb hard drives from serverpartdeals and a new case from Amazon.

I recommend starting with a chassis you want and working backwards to help narrow your scope.

I know you wanted smaller but heres what I bought. SilverStone Technology CS382... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CKTYSZV9?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Also, I run truenas scale with a bunch of apps. Ssd z1 for os. Ssd z1 for transcode and caches. And then 4 drive set for main storage and another 4 drive set for backup of the first set.

Every other company seems to charge for parental controls. It's so stupid, I don't need another fee just because I have a child in my life.

I wanted to degoogle, so I looked for a new router and ended up with an Asus.

Temu is different because they allow a seller to say I'll make plastic dog shit toys by November 1. So it goes on sale in September and 100, 000 people order it. Now the company makes a single batch and knows exactly how many to make and what materials to buy. It's smart. That's why they want your friends involved because it lowers the price more to make more at once.

I'm not defending the company but it is a smart way and less costly and wasteful than making 100, 000 dog shit toys and selling 10, throwing the other 999,990 in the local river and writing it off on taxes.

I don't think protonpass has auto fill even on browser extension.

Or maybe I'm too stupid to figure it out. I ran side by side against bitwarden which I love. Could not figure out a way that didn't make me manually c/p the creds.

I don't know that they deserve favorite because of what they are, they don't even have much of a smell! But there is just something about them I love, and maybe it's memories or how "wild" they look as they grow in bunches. It reminds me of wildflowers in a field.
