  • His name is Lindsey Graham and all you have to do is look up his name and ‘racist’. It’s not your fault. As you said, you didn’t know who he is. No harm, no foul. I’ll put up with a lot of bullshit from a lot of people, but I just have no tolerance for racists. Stupidest thing I’ve ever heard from people who didn’t choose their skin color either. Former president LBJ, who had his own issues with racism, said something that will stand the test of time:

    “If you can convince the lowest white man he’s better than the best colored man, he won’t notice you’re picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he’ll empty his pockets for you.”




  • If I do buy now, I think I’d just spend a big chunk,

    15 years ago, I built a computer. Stocked it with all the cutting edge tech I could cram into it. Still a great computer and pretty capable.

    If I were to build another, I’d do it the same way. Build it for long term service, which means you’re going to spend a bit more, but the payout is better. If you break it down, I’ve spent $.63/per day, for 15 years. Not a bad return.






    • I use Obsidian
    • Usually, what I do is write the documentation as I am engaged with the project at hand. Then clean everything up, and transfer to Obsidian.
    • I include everything. I don’t leave anything for my mind to wonder about. If I didn’t write it down, it didn’t happen.
    • Date any addenda or changes (4-2-26: Firewall rules review)




  • So, is this just for fun or is there some other purpose…besides fun which is cool? Do you collect them like Pokemon? For instance, what is the reward for finding a 😈 FencepostDemon? Just curious my man. I will tell you tho, brace yourself. AI and pictures generated in conjunction with AI is going to go over like a fart in church in here. I’m not a code pro like some, but anything to make life more jocular is a good ambition.






  • In theory I think You could use WoL and have your router wake a device before sending traffic but I haven’t seen any guides for doing this so maybe I’m missing something.

    Working on this. Cron to power off the server in the evening, and WOL from my standalone pFsense box to the server to power up with etherwake.
