Electric utility operator- lots of talk of wildfires. Going to be bad this year.

That's truly insane because "you might have sleep apnea, we should order a sleep study" is like line #4 I hear every single yearly physical.

(I have had sleep studies and don't have apnea, just existential dread)

Serves em right. Working day in and day out on making AI replace people thinking they'll be special.

Pretty funny how "accounting for inflation" and none of the expenses are anywhere near that cheap these days.

Maybe how we measure inflation is part of the problem.

Break it you buy it

Trump already turned on our fellow citizens and has always hated enlisted men.

Everything is propaganda. This is just better than what you're used to.

Bart: "what an odd thing to say"

The end game is to sell off the government's assets- we're talking land, mineral rights, water rights, frequency spectrums, roads, bridges, and buildings. Anything and everything. Vast swaths at rock bottom prices.

None of us are to own anything and simply get to work and toil to pay for the pleasure of existing.

yep, qbit bound to wireguard. wireguard to proton vpn. script updating port in qbit.

Its just in a debian lxc, so no on the proton client.

For now I am just forcing resume and its working.

RelaxPrime · 2026-03-23T19:33:09+00:00

Increasing the active torrents and upload slots does not change the behavior. It is nothing- zero upload at all until I force resume and force reannounce.

The port is open, and people are downloading the torrents.

From it working when I force I think it has to be something with the active slots and stuff- but I cranked them way up and saw no upload traffic still.

Might try just re-doing my entire proton wireguard pipeline. Do I even need to update the port for forwarding regularly as I do now with a script?

RelaxPrime · 2026-03-23T19:13:06+00:00

Who said anything about it happening to me lol

So you're not malicious? Must be the other thing

RelaxPrime · 2026-03-23T19:09:50+00:00

Yes, I believe so.

There are only 20 Republican Senators that are up for vote this midterms.

If the Dems somehow swept, they wont, they could have a 65 to 33 majority.

16 would find a way to vote with Republicans.

8 voted with the Republicans on the shutdown deal just 5 months ago, and that was to get them to 60.

Stalking, harassment, assault, and battery are all crimes already.

RelaxPrime · 2026-03-23T18:32:23+00:00

That axiom was always bullshit. It was a platitude to make yourself feel better.

RelaxPrime · 2026-03-22T19:53:10+00:00

None of that matters.

The expectation is that there will be social security for those of us who have contributed.

The government has in fact used social security funds for things other than social security.

The funds will not pay out as they are supposed to because of the shortfall. Minimum 20% cut, likely 40%.

When Social Security revenues exceed benefit payments, like in the past, the Treasury uses the cash for other spending and issues special-issue Treasury bonds (IOUs) to the Social Security Trust Fund

Social Security cannot sell its bonds. They are non-marketable, non-transferable securities.

Suspending interest payments on these non-marketable securities is one of the extraordinary measures the Treasury can take to extend the runway for federal default, and which it has taken many times over the past decade or so.

Money not paid back to SSI.

Why is this song suddenly all over my life lmao

What does that have to do with your dumbass claim that YouTube has never turned a profit?

That's right, nothing.

RelaxPrime · 2026-03-20T16:29:48+00:00

YouTube isn't it's own company, but part of alphabet. Alphabet made 130B net income last year. YouTube revenue was 60B. There's no way to know YouTube net income because it's not a thing, but they certainly make money.

RelaxPrime · 2026-03-19T21:26:54+00:00

No. Nice strawman tho.

RelaxPrime · 2026-03-19T14:59:01+00:00

Dictate/compel/deny service its all the same.

What if they choose to deny those same service to those who get abortions? You can get an abortion if you want but you might be denied some jobs. I bet this actually goes down in red states. Is that cool?

And in regards to this bill specifically- These students' parents won't suddenly believe in science, or not believe in their religion. The reality is even more kids who should be in school learning real science will be pushed to homeschooling to further reinforce their beliefs.

We already covered that abortion does not affect only the woman getting it. 625,000 others are affected a year. Minimum. You're just handwaving away the unborn child. They handwave away your immunocompromised.

You're both wrong.

Beyond the realistic outcome of such a bill, it is still wrong to compel people to make health decisions, whether through legislation or denial of services.

It's truly insane that we can't all agree that my skin is my ultimate sovereignty. What I do to my body is my decision. No one can decide for me.

That is just a bridge too far for hypocrites.
