The Republicans.

Violence meeting violence will be met with violence.

Fucking numpty.

I think KenM is leaking.

I would also be amazed if a crow could lift a big enough rock to damage a panel. I have a pile of panels in use; they’re pretty damn tough to break that glass. Only time I’ve seen one broken was the wind tore it off it’s mount and smashed it into the top of a fence post. I measure the production afterwards and it was still 90% despite the glass being crazed across the entire surface.

I need my coffee to bend me over the counter and ram it in dry.

Ugly. And on brand.

Yes, but then they made peace with Japan and brought it into full trade relationship with the world, and Japan became one of the top economies in the world. Germany the same via the Marshall Plan. All of this could have been accomplished without nuking Japan, but as I said, they have to do every wrong thing before the do the right thing.

Unfortunately, I’m kind of cynical now given the last 50 years. I really am not sure that the American’s are capable of doing the right thing anymore, despite countless examples of countries around them that manage to treat it’s citizens like people for the most part. The oligarchic structure has gotten it’s talons too far into the meat at this point, and it’s rotting from inside. The citizens have been whittled away from power so extensively that it might take a pretty bloody fight to change it. And given the level of technology dedicated to suppression of citizen power, and even outright rejection of the constitution boundaries that have worked back when they could do the right thing, I’m not sure it’s going to work.

So yah, I agree with you, today. I wouldn’t have agreed back when they were nuking Japan, because they did eventually do the right thing. And to be fair, Japan visited untold suffering on other countries. It’s hard to say if they would have capitulated without that display of overwhelming force. They sure didn’t seem open to it beforehand. But I guess we won’t know in this fucked up timeline.

You couldn’t pay us enough to put up with your fucking yahoos. I think you’re going to need to figure it out yourselves.

America will always do the right thing, after they’ve tried literally everything else.

Moral turpitude will not be tolerated.

135 was for the institutional investors that sponsored it. 150 was the opening price for the hoi-poloi.

Good god, they might even expect you to pay for it before they deliver it.

Is Jeffries getting whitening therapy or has he just been dead long enough for that pastiness to set in?

“Just”?

That’s your one and only issue with WhiskeyPete, the experience? And how could you have possibly known at his confirmation that he was inexperienced, except for the fact he was a Faux News presenter for a bunch of years after he was a grunt?

These fuckers should have their names chiselled on a board as Trump supporters in about 6 months for people to remember how they fucked everyone.

For the safety of themselves and society at large.

They helped kill my aunty! She applied pure chemicals to herself and that was the end of her.

Well, perhaps, but it shouldn’t be any more complicated than starting up the docker stack.

What are the specific problems? I might be able to help. You might also point an agent at the repo and ask it to stand it up, they’re pretty good at that sort of thing, just approve the commands it’s running to make sure it doesn’t shit the bed.

Were you using the Nextcloud AIO? I’ve used every method of installing NC over the last decade+ and the AIO is painless to install and maintain.

You forgot the Deus Ex Machina explanation at the end that made literally everything before it a non sequitur.

And he had no new ideas. Anyone that reads that series and extolls the originality of the Dark Forest theory hasn’t read any science fiction to speak of, let along Saberhagen’s Berserker series from the better part of a century earlier. He had nothing new, he was a literature prof writing his first SF book and doing it way worse than any literature prof should ever be at writing.

Fucking garbage, I was angry and upset that I had wasted time reading that shit and wanted my money back. If anyone tells you that was great SF, you can safely turn your back and walk away, they have nothing useful to contribute to a conversation on the matter.

Oh, yah, well I guess that qualifies as “very wrong”.
