Metal is heavier than water. Virtually every containber is fille to the brim with products, now I don't know you but most everything we buy is heavier than water.

It's clear they have some kind of extra propulsion in those, most likely magnetic anti gravitation.

I hope you'll never inexplicably turn into a kid for your own sake.

Yes because it's totally necessary to spell it "Call of Duty" to a Gamestop employee.

You know, C.O.D., that little unknown indie game that totally nobody ever heard of.

This is clearly fake but if it wasn't that would legitimatelly warrant a warning to the employee for misconduct.

Of couse not, if I was the parent I'd be furious for having my child Christmast ruined by this asshole.

What I find particoularly annoying and interesting, is that most of those "silly/dumb" social network questions are engineered with at least 2, sometimes more layers, for the purpose of getting a reaction not really from the "dumb people" but also, possibly mostly, from the smartass that can't help point out something they think they noticed, incongruity and the likes, unaware that those are there on purpose to bait them in.

This case is a lot more blatant, possibly fake, but the "controversial" interpretation of stabbing one of the children is not an afterthoughts of the sick mind of us memers terminally online, it's probably the core reason the thing has been shared and worded that way.

I just hope my own reaction has not been 100% predicted.

That was very insighful, thanks!

“I don’t care if rapes happened (on October 7th), it doesn’t change the situation for me at all.”

To not paraphrase, the point was that oct 7th was a less egregious act of violence than what Isreal had been doing and is doing currently.

So yea, it's fair to say that it doesn't change much if the oct 7th had behaded babies or if it had Palestinian gifting flower crowns to Israeli snipers martiring themselves while singing Imagine.

I hope you realize you are furthering the impression of not being a particoularly intelligent person.

Have a nice day nevertheless.

Going by your username I'm older than you, also I've never had a tiktok account.

But yes, I do speak somewhat fluently a foreign languadge, thank you for noticing!

I am waiting with trepidation at the imminent collapse of fascism and the return, nay, the renaissance, of the United States of America and, haralded by them, the world at large.

I don't find your argumentation convincing at all.

You go from a priori defining the democrats as a party that both already knows public opinion, that enhact the optimal strategies to a point where there's not even the notion of a better strategy, but you never draw the connecting between that and where we are now, historically and politically.

There's two party in your (?) country, and currently one of them is blatantly disregarding human rights.

It's fair to assume the other party has, is, failing in opposing that.

The argument of Piker, of course, is not in good faith. He thinks the democrats are not aequately opposing Trump because, at the end of the day, they are aligned on many front or at least not unaligned enough.

 

I'm playing Shattered Pixel Dungeon. I used to play it with minimal luck, or skill, and I got back into it. First run in years and I'm deeper than ever before.

I'm running a Berserker with a +1 Flail and a +7 Scale Armour (+1 coming from the seal). I'm nearing the dwarf king (first time ever) and I got a +1 plate armour and 4 upgrade scrolls.

What makes more sense, hold onto the scale and pump that further or swap, dumping my 4 upgrades on it bringing it to a comparable power to my scale, banking on better future scaling?

I also got a +1 glaive. Slow as fuck but hits like a truck. The flail hits similarly (when it does) but it's faster...

Edit: I got a +9 sad ghost that could really use a better armour as well, he's currently on a +1 mail and it's, well, his glory days are behind him.

 

I have a proxmox+Debian+docker server and I'm looking to setup my backups so that they get backed up (DUH) on my Linux PC whenever it comes online on the local network.

I'm not sure if what's best is backing up locally and having something else handling the copying, how to have those backup run only if they haven't run in a while regardless of the availability of the PC, if it's best to have the PC run the logic or to keep the control over it on the server.

Mostly I don't want to waste space on my server because it's limited...

I don't know the what and I don't know the how, currently, any input is appreciated.

Hi,

I've been playing with a Dell mini PC (OptiPlex 7070) that I set up with Proxmox and a single Debian virtual machine that hosts a bunch of containers (mostly an *arr stack).

All the data resides on the single SSD that came with the machine, but I'm now satisfied with the whole ordeal and would like to migrate my storage from my PC to this solution.

What's the best approach software side? I have a bunch of HD in of varying size and age (therefore expected reliability) and I'd initially dedicate such storage to data I can 100% afford to lose (basically media).

I read I should avoid USB (even though my mini PC exposes a USB-C) for reliability, but on the other hand I'm not sure what other options I have that doesn't force me to buy a NAS or properly sized HD to install inside the machine...

Also, what's a good filesystem for my usecase?

Thank for any tips.

 

I migrated almost everything on Linux and, low and behold, the only game giving me issues is DOTA2.

I'm using Steam flatpack, it runs, I can play against bots, I can spectate games. The moment i try to play in matchmaking a VAC messadge pops up preventing me from starting a game.

I tried reinstalling, veryfying the files, installing on a differend hard drive, scanning the disks for errors.

Nothing worked. Any idea?

Edit: thanks guys, it was actually Proton!

 

I had a dual boot I rarely used because reasons, one of them being that it was Manjaro and it kinda sort of borked itself and evey time I upgraded it asked me to make choices I had no idea what they meant.

I wanted to give Pop_OS a try so I went and nuked the Manjaro and set up the boot, root and swap of Pop_OS in its place.

Point is, I had the /home of Manjaro on a different location (The OS is on a SSD shared with windows and I put /home on a HD). I did not point Pop_OS to it at setup for fear of it being nuked (Will it nuke it? If not I guess I can do a new install and point it there?)

Can I link Pop_OS home to the old Manjaro home or do I need to take care of something (format it, remove some specific folder...).

I ask because I convinced myself the matter was trivial, but in the process of making sure the /home of Pop_OS was empty I ended up with a system hang and my passwords (both user AND root) being rejected and I had to reinstall the whole thing, so maybe there's more to /home than just a bunch of data?

Thanks!
