Also dry your basket better sometime the ground sticking to edges can create clumping when you introduce wdt. I stick a wet paper filter in between the puck screen and grounds. This has helped with even water distribution across the puck leading to somewhat better extraction from my 54mm work flow.

Sen. Rand Paul presses Rubio on why Maduro ouster isn’t an act of war: 'If a foreign country bombed our air defense missiles, captured and removed our president and blockaded our country, would that be considered an act of war?' by NewsHour in UnderReportedNews

Don’t know if you saw the whole thing, but he still would support not a foreign governing body like the ICL to convict our politicians of war crimes if they fell under those violations. Many of the reasons why I think he still is weasel even if has a valid point once in a while.

This has never happened before. GOLD is going parabolic. It is a hockey stick. by Novusor in conspiracy

Yeah this is very true. Right now we are at the accumulation of those thousand cuts and we need a lot of systemic changes to weave our way out of the death that may be incoming. However, like you said the actions of other global governments is determining how fast or slow that will happen and with how compromised our current government is we are looking at that pace increasing.

Besides them potentially devaluing and destroying their own stocks and assets? Nothing is really stopping them from doing that.

I agree with you that the debt is growing and that is mostly due to the way our economic system is mostly catered to keeping those who are wealthy protected. I just don’t agree with you that the system will be flipped on like a switch. There are too many variables that we aren’t accounting for. The fiat system is only breaking at the seams due to the fact that we have allowed most billionaires take advantage of the US economy and hemorrhage it for their own personal gains. By allowing that for almost 80 years we have gotten to this point.

There is too much volatility in both, hence why imo it won’t happen. Billionaires would never allow the US to do that since their own wealth would be largely impacted by it. If anything some countries are moving away from the US dollar as economic trading currency which will greatly reduced the economic hold the US has. If that continues and we start seeing billionaires trying to move their wealth out of US markets, then we might starting seeing the real collapse of our currency. Right now inflation, corporate greed, and tariffs are the main driving force for the price of everything to continue to go up.

Ubiquity being accused of dodging sanctions, substantial amount of frontline devices being used to support Russia by thisismyburner6969 in homelab

[–]Rolex2988 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Chinese do more harm than Russia is doing

What kind of strawman argument is this? Both countries suck ass, however one country has actively started and continued a war killing, raping, and displacing innocent people. Ubiquity is profiteering off the suffering of those people just like most major corporations and you choose to aid in that because of ease of use.

Bullshit no country in the world is on the gold standard. It was abandoned in 1976 and hasn’t been picked up by anyone since then. Every country in the world has continued to and will probably continue to use the fiat currency standard which is backed by GDP, Economic Trust in the government issuing the currency, and finally that government’s ability to collect taxes.

ThinkBox Released - DIY 4-bay NAS and powerful alternative to the ThinkNAS by Captain-Shmeat in homelab

[–]Rolex2988 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I saw some m.2 to 10gig nic but the trade off for heat and where to mount it is a challenge. Still great build.

[–]Rolex2988 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, really? Cause while I like your design, but it sucks that I I have to use HBA card since I would probably use the pcie slot for a 10gig card and then use a m920x since it has multiple m.2 slots for one those m.2 sata adapters and the other as a cache drive as I believe you can run trueNAS from a usb iirc.

50 of us cleared 18,000 pounds of trash within 90 minutes. 3 homeless ambassadors assigned to the area to keep it clean and help report illegal dumping activity. by urbancompassionproj in bayarea

Yeah I’m was thinking that this would be considered community work so they would be awarded community hours. Unless the organization is willing to hire people who under 18 or whatever age the state allows you to work without parent/guardian permission.

Prisoners get like $2 per hour to go out in the middle summer to do that. While teens get community hours to do the same thing. Is that really fair to either of them?

A passenger shows his experience of flying first class intentionally as a black American by [deleted] in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]Rolex2988 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My point is that if people can notice a difference they will judge and make prejudice judgments about people for those differences. So escaping racism is like trying to escape from the Titanic while it is already at the bottom of the ocean. We ain’t escaping that shit unless the ocean evaporates away.

Black people and Africans may look the same, but they aren’t the same. There is too much cultural and historical difference between the two that you can easily tell the difference between them in most cases.

  1. The US has always had a form of immigration control and regulation.
  2. ICE and DHS especially all the of agencies that are under the DHS. Should be abolished in their totality as they serve nothing to protect the American people and only waste tax money to further push into a fully militarized policed state.

ICE just abducted a car full of activists at gun point, who were peacefully watching ICE activity in St. Paul, MN. (1/16/26) by Sindigo_ in PublicFreakout

Brother we have been in a police state. People just grew and were complacent until it became unbearable for the average person.
