I’d vote for a candidate who only communicates via ouija board over Trump.

Give it a few months

Also, I feel like both Howard and Lovecraft were prone to incredibly lengthy descriptions of things

Sure. The hardware is a cheap little beelink with an n100 and 16gb of RAM. Proxmox can do VMs, but is primarily focused on LXCs, which are Linux containers. They share the kernel with the host, so they’re very lightweight — you can spin up basically as many (say) Debian systems as you want. So I have Jellyfin on one container, Sonarr/Radarr on another (though you could put them on separate containers if you wanted), transmission has a container, sabnzb has a co- … you get the idea lol.

The cool thing is that it’s easy to mount drives/directories from the host, and have your containers share them that way.

Wrt backups, Proxmox had some built in functionality you can run from the web ui. So I back up images of the LXCs to the external hard drive daily, then have a borg container that backs up the back up directory to cloud storage.

It’s also very convenient to make a quick backup before making any changes to a container — you can restore to a previous image with the click of a button.

If you have the RAM for it, I would recommend going the Promox route. I made the switch this year, and now running daily container image backups is a doddle.

With respect, if you describe yourself as liberal, vote for an economically liberal party, and refuse even to accept economic policy as part of the question, I think the “authoritarian leftists” have your number tbh

Yeah agreed, Haiti really opens your eyes to how race and class intersect imo — and the potted history at the end to bring us up to the present is absolutely heartbreaking.

I’m sorry but this is just flat out wrong in the way that only an American can be wrong

There’s a difference between ideology and affect. I’m sure plenty of Nazis are “nice”

Liberals are, to quote Phil Ochs: “ten degrees to the left of center in the good times, ten degrees to the right of center when it affects them personally”

Look rather than dunk on you, I’m going to recommend Mike Duncan’s Revolutions podcast, because it gives a fair overview of what the liberal revolutions were about, why socialism grew out of that moment, and how there came to be this irreconciliable beef between liberalism and socialism. The whole thing is great, but 1848 is the real crisis point if all you care about is the schism.

Do you know what the word ‘liberal’ actually means

I’m blaming Germany, actually. Keep up.

It’s because the USSR used to outsource a lot of their dirtiest industry to Poland, and now the EU do it
