Goddamn it he’s so charming and handsome!

If I wasn’t convinced the entire financial system was fraudulent I would be shorting the fuck out of all of them

Jason Segel really carried that show

You right, Home Depot does sell buckets like that(and only like $7) but they ain’t the orange ones

I just took a screenshot of the image and then cropped the bottom of his face out, there is no denying it

Do you mean like Home Depot buckets? I’ve wanted to fill one or similar bucket with flour but worry about pantry moths

For a first machine a used Mac mini, especially one that precedes the T2 chip(although that’s not a deal breaker) is probably the best bang for the buck, solid hardware that will get what most people really want from a server unless they want a full on homelab, and they are easy to find cheaply on eBay. Also comes with the advantage of being able to run OSX with fewer hoops if you had a specific use case for that(running blue bubbles in the background or syncing to iCloud… mostly just convenience stuff if you have a leg in that ecosystem could also make a potential slow migration away less irritating)

If you can find a cheap NUC first tell me where because they are great options

Lenovo think centers can be found refurbed for under $100 too and will also be available for a long time because those fuckers were in every bank, hospital/drs office, and all manner of non-tech related offices for years and years.

Or you could be like me and jump two feet in with a used enterprise server, I dunno if I’d recommend this but I do know a lot more than I did when I started and have tons power and capacity to expand. And I’ve gotten more than enough use out of them to justify the $300ish I paid for my Poweredges plus electric bills. But do your research it took me a year to find documents on how to bypass the idrac drive virtualization bullshit and my power draw significantly dropped afterwards

I mean this without trying to sound facetious at all, I think a lot of the decision makers in these companies that are pushing so hard because they believe this is their path to godhood/immortality, and no price is too great for that in their eyes

I may have been vaguely aware it was technically possible and maybe this aint the exact article I read but it seems they’ve got a working software model

https://www.techradar.com/computing/computing-security/this-technology-turns-every-router-into-a-potential-means-for-surveillance-researchers-warn-you-can-be-tracked-and-identified-from-wi-fi-signals

Coupling this with the article about WiFi being capable of surveillance even if one isn’t personally utilizing it with any device is really upsetting to wake up too. Need to look into if some sort of scrambler can be used to disrupt that, and everyone should buy a high powered laser pointer for easy identification of security camera

This is actually one of the bigger things overall, this level of disruption they hype, even if you buy the optimistic side of what can be delivered will either eventually lead to some sort of universal basic income for everyone(sus) or millions of people without income and no one able to replace the people who’s knowledge and experience are needed to correct mistakes that will for sure happen even if the models/agents get much better than they are forecasted to be. There’s more but I think the point is made.
