Yep, my family only had manual vehicles growing up so I had to learn stick just to start driving. AZ here, also mid 30s.

Homelab for me too. Started off with a repurposed gaming PC and exploded into multiple hosts, tons of drives, and an itch to keep expanding

Wow, I had no idea that there was a quote out there that aligns so well with my beliefs. I grew up in a semi religious household but was never forced to go to church. My parents encouraged me to go, not only to theirs but even go with friends that were different religions.

After going to various churches through some really vulnerable times I still don't subscribe to any religion, but I also can't bring myself to go full atheist.

Too bad that quote is way too long for a tattoo 🤣

All of the trackers are because of ads. If you upgrade the trackers go away. Doesn't address open source though.

spoilerIt's a reference to urethral sounding.

Search it at your own risk.

I like where your head's at. I'm gonna go with the expecting more indictments angle paired with not being as rich/liquid as he'd like everyone to believe. What an unavoidable situation he's found himself in.

Lmao, how have I never put that one together?

That's a valid point I hadn't considered. Based on a cursory look at how bail bond works, if you go with a bondsman you're out a certain amount regardless if you show up to court or not.

So if he paid the 200k he'd get almost all of it back after court, minus whatever processing fees the court has. If he goes with the bondsman he forks over 10% and the bondsman covers the other 90%, but he would get nothing back after court. The bondsman gets the full refund and keeps it all.

I can't imagine the return on that would move the needle much for someone as "rich" as he is. I don't know though, and I'll fully admit this is pure speculation.

I appreciate the absolute humility though

You lose comment history and all that jazz too but it's better than nothing. I'm not sure if devs plan to implement a way to do it but it's one of the reasons I decided to roll my own instance. Nothing more frustrating than using someone else's and losing access while they take days to get it back up.

Doesn't this make her point even more? Had to use a bondsman for 20k but he's super rich? Yiiikes
