I try to refer to it as Xitter. Posts are xeets.

Ah…well, it was always implied. It’s a stretch though since in the South, cousin stuff isn’t incest. That’s just normal, otherwise the population would decline rapidly in terms of numbers.

General Lee - Robert E Lee, general of the Army of Northern Virginia, the main army for the Confederate States of America.

Jefferson Davis - president of the Confederate States of America.

The whole war was about slavery. The Confederate states wanted to have slaves. When Abraham Lincoln was elected in 1860, they threw a tantrum, claimed the election wasn’t legitimate (sound familiar?), then seceded and tried to form an independent nation.

Anyone who says that it was about states’ rights is being disingenuous. The Confederate Constitution mentions slavery and includes regulations for it.

The Confederacy also wanted to deport all Jews (except for one - the Secretary of The Treasury) and eventually conquer Mexico and use them as slaves as well. The brown ones.

The Confederacy also would have enslaved any Native Americans remaining in those states.

The vast majority of southern soldiers were too poor to ever own a slave and were treated only slightly better than slaves. It was very obviously the white supremacist elitist class exploiting everyone else.

The Republican party regurgitates a lot of the Confederate talking points.

I’m enjoying the 2nd book, Giuseppe Stromboli and the Carbonara of Secrets, tremendously. Especially when Giuseppe, Ronaldinho, and Himmione have to serve their detention in the kitchens making sausage out of dead goblins.

I was thinking punk band name.

That just means the bacon will cook faster, right? Sounds like a win.

Thank you very much for the response! I want to do offline on my phone as well. The Emby server is for me and a couple of friends plus I have been wanting to learn more about media servers and all the -arrs

Ah, thank you for the explanation. Fortunately most of my duplicates are entire albums, so I won’t need to comb through each folder/album.

I’ll check my permissions for emby

Ah, okay. Someone else mentioned Picard so I’ll look into that. I’ve heard a little about it, do I’m excited for a new rabbit hole.

Thanks for the response! I’ll look into Raxda to begin with.

So, since they’re going to become profit mongering dbags and ruin their product and brand, what are the best alternatives? I’ve never used them but I’ve been aware of them for several years now.

I have some projects that I’m working on that seemed like a Raspberry Pi would work well with but I’m not interested if they’re going public.

TIA!

But “Sweet Caroline” is problematic in a different way. From Wikipedia - “Diamond has provided different explanations for the song’s origins. In a 2007 interview, he stated the inspiration for the song was John F. Kennedy’s daughter, Caroline, who was 11 years old at the time it was released. Diamond sang the song for her at her 50th birthday celebration in 2007. On December 21, 2011, in an interview on CBS’s The Early Show, Diamond said that a magazine cover photo of Caroline as a young child on a horse with her parents created an image in his mind, and the rest of the song came together about five years after seeing the picture. However, in 2014, Diamond said the song was about his then-wife Marcia, but he needed a three-syllable name to fit the melody.”

He wrote lyrics about touching each other a few years after seeing her in a photo as a young child?

Ich war geknebelt. Ich konnte nicht mal schreien. Oh, Sweet Sweet Gwendoline!

Warren Zebon FTW!

As a white person, I choose “sweet release of death.”

Mostly “this has been answered in another thread” and “why don’t you Google it” comments in my experience.

Don’t tell me how to live my life! You’re not even my real dad!

That sounds real nifty. I do so enjoy a good sock hop. I just hope they don’t play any of that devilish rock music.

Something similar happened to me with a community on hexbear. Never posted but I already had a ban. The mods must have seen a comment or something on a different community on the instance. Some of the mods there are just as think skinned as on ml.

A friend of mine has a set of them at work and they work well in our noisy environment - machine shop.

The rule for earbuds is that you can only have one in so the bone conduction are gaining popularity at work.

I wish they fit in my motorcycle helmet. My earbuds fall out all the time when I take my helmet off.
