Modular auxiliary thruster.

It’s a failed state that ‘elects’ terrorists who have destroyed any actual opportunity for economic independence or peace.

There’s no way forward with Hamas in charge IMO. But what can be done. Any kind of ‘go in and fix it’ from Israel is going to be terrible in terms of optics even if done with complete benevolence, which it won’t, even if they’re not as bad.

They could just annex it and move forward with a highly inclusive approach, give Palestine the quality of life they deserve. But that wouldn’t sit right with many, for quite fair reasons. Leave a power vacuum? Unlikely to go well.

I think Palestine needs external support and guidence to stand on its own and be a functional state. I’d say that Egypt or Jordan would ‘look’ best to do that. But it raises a huge number of problems.

At the moment it’s basically festering, and things will never improve under the current leadership. What they demand is not reasonable or acceptable, and what they will do until they (Hamas) get what they want is also unacceptable.

So really, it’s a question of whether Palestine will ever deal with Hamas themselves, and if not, who else can/should.

I’m just going to launch missiles in this direction, if you get hit, that’s your fault!

Says Ukraine.

Lol like Ukraine did with their nukes?

So who’s going to disarm first? If the Russians disarm and fuck off home then yeah, war’s over. But what you’ve actually got are genocidal murderers and rapists trying to destroy a nation of people, and you in your armchair saying that we should allow it to continue. These are actual, real people. But feel free to head over there and spread the good word.

The aggressors can stop whenever they want to. Suggesting that Ukraine shouldn’t have the means to protect itself is utterly ignorant.

What the fuck has this got to do with right or left wing?

Good luck!

Sometimes that’s a tactic, sometimes it’s wild optimism, and sometimes they seem content to make a loss every year and prop it up with investment.

I don’t know about stealing, they stopped taking money when I unsubbed, now I’m watching shit that somebody else paid to make, while not giving them a penny back!

But then how else can I overcomplicate things? You’re right, thanks, and also thanks for the heads up on Proxmox. I picked up an old Checkpoint 4800 for less than the 400g solid copper heatsink is worth which I will run Proxmox on, which will give me a chance to get to know it!

The server is amazing, way quieter than I expected, I had a whole soundproofed rack planned, but the fans just chill at 20%! I think it’ll be almost silent once I have the rack built.

Lots of people get on okay with it, and I’m not the most experienced, but docker problems with Scale seem to be common, and the direction TrueNAS is going with Scale isn’t going to make it any better.

I think Core is a bit better. But I’m definitely going to move away from it for Docker. Unraid was so easy for Docker, and I see it has ZFS support now, I’ll let you know how I get on.

Also, don’t forget the 720 has an internal USB port, because I did!

I mean, why not? It is convenient, and to me, really well priced for what you get. There’s lots of things that offer far worse value for money that we don’t really think about.

And I host my own Plex server with Sonarr, Radarr, etc. But sometimes, you just want to jump into something, and TV series can take a huge amount of space.

I don’t know why Netflix is considered so morally repugnant, when they do still offer a good service for the money.

Convenience is worth something to a lot of people.

Not necessarily, companies like Twitter make consistent losses with no real path to change that, yet its deemed to have value by investors.

That makes it even dumber though, surely? Lots of people invest in tech businesses that are not profitable and have no plans to become sustainable, some idiots even buy them.

It’s things like user count and activity that will be more meaningful in that scenario, so one should avoid doing anything to reduce those figures.

This is life-changing. I can’t believe this has been such an easy option!

Like OP, I couldn’t really put my finger on why I found so much of this stuff frustrating, I think this will make a big difference for me.
