    Go to Walmart (not the neighborhood Walmart, the super Walmart) and look around

    Maybe that explains the amount of mental health issues in the population?

  • Hi everyone, I have an old gaming PC that I had repurposed to be my nextcloud and plex server using TrueNAS, but I recently found CasaOS and I would like to migrate my server to use this instead. What are some best practices that I should observe when installing a different OS into a server? My server is installed on an M.2 drive and I have two 1TB HDD setup in raid.

    Honestly, the law should be that the batteries need to be designed to be replaced by off the shelf options. Basically, add instructions on how to relatively easily to replace the battery cells with the same ones found inside laptop batteries that can be ordered off Amazon or similar places.

    Human Resources is just a department that cares about the image of the company

    Marketing itself can be good, sadly the whole industry has gone off so far into the dark path that it's irredeemable at this point.

  • So, I have been giving this a lot of thought and come November I won't be voting for team blue or team red in the upcoming elections, but I will be voting for a candidate I belive in. I have decided that my vote will go to Claudia de la Cruz because she lines up with my beliefs. Some might say that I'm throwing away my vote and that this will just let Trump become president since I'm not giving Biden my vote, but honestly he doesn't represent me anyways and why should I vote for a party that doesn't deserve my vote anyway? I hope Trump goes down in flames all the way to hell where he will have pineapples shoved up his ass while dressed as a French maid, but if the Dems loose in November, it won't be because me or many others just didn't vote for them, it will be because they did not do anything to show us they deserve out vote. Sure Biden has done a bunch of stuff for the American people, but I just can't look away with the horror of what is happening in Palestine and be ok with him or other dems calling anyone who sympathizes with Palestinians as being pro Hamas or pro terrorism. Sorry to anyone who isn't in the US and sees this post, I know the US politics are super annoying for you all, but I just wanted to get this off my chest. TL;DR - I'm not voting for Biden just because Trump bad. I'm voting for someone who represents me.

    Hi everyone, every time I setup a Pi project server I have a hard time since I can only access that device from the computer where I created the image since I add the SSH key during setup, but I would like to be able to ssh from my android and my other laptop in case I'm out on the road and away from home. How can I add the other keys for the other devices to a single Pi without using the user name and password as this is also given me problems because ssh wants to try using keys and if it does not find them it just fails instead of asking me to enter the password (also, because it's not really safe).

    South Carolina lawmakers appear close to approving a bill that would allow anyone who can legally own a gun to carry the weapon openly. I don't feel safe any more.

    Politicians constantly talk about stopping the illegal immigrants that are coming from Mexico, but putting a wall has never and will never be a solution since the reason why so many displaced keep coming across the border is mostly to escape the crime, corruption, inequality, and violence of they have to live in their home countries. The worst part is that most of these terrible things is that happen in third world countries are rooted in constant subversion by developed countries, primarily the US. I feel like since we caused this (even if in part) we should help stop it now, even if we didn't publicly admit guilt to save face. So, how do we do it? Do we straight up invade Mexico and go on a full out war against the cartels like we did against Osama Bin Laden? If not, why not? And, is there anything that can be done? I would like to keep things civil. Please, let's keep this respectful as I know this is a tough issue and there is anger on both sides of this issue.

    My nephew was a big part in this event and wanted me to share the video. If this isn't the right community for it, I am sorry, but I would also appreciate if someone knew where this could be shared as I don't really have social media.

    I think the insulation tech is pretty dope, but seriously I don't understand who says "hey Google, Clean my ass!" and thinks that's what consumers want. Also, when robot maid? However I still don't need an AI powered toaster oven.
