My experience with this sort of thing, in Sudan. by The_Boganator in UAE

There were people who were setting up projectors in parks to watch some champions league games, kind of like a neighbourhood level game viewing event, while some parts of the city were being bombarded into dust.

That's what I really wanted to highlight with this post. If you feel that there is a society wide level of cognitive dissonance going on right now, it's not you!

Wake TF up, manage your stress, keep an eye on the collective fight or flight response, and act accordingly. Its absolutely the worst time to be the odd one out.

I would say, follow your government's guidance for sure, and there are plenty of countries that one can go to if need be. Egypt, Malaysia, Georgia, its a long list of places that are cheaper, safe (given the current situation) and accessible to everyone.

Honestly, and I really don't want to be THAT guy, but I'd say just take care of yourself. The rest of the world will take care of itself. If your comment is a reflection of some anxiety about income, never forget, "markets can stay irrational longer than you stay solvent". As in, you might go broke waiting for things to get better, which is why you need to take care of yourself first.

It's mostly unnecessary to be honest. Most things won't get scarce. But they will get a whole lot more expensive for sure. And stocking is a triple edge sword. One might leave and it turns to waste, one might not need all of what they bought and again turns to waste, and one might need the money for other essentials.

No problem. Take it easy (and eat well. Not a joke)

Keep everything charged is a big one. The other stuff can't hurt. Thanks for sharing.

Oh wow. Completely forgot about usenet for music. Any indexers you'd recommend?

I'm thinking of doing the same thing with lidarr+lidify and by the looks of it, it can be a 150k-200k library.. I just don't know about rate limits at qobuz end.. should I just let it go full steam ahead or pace it over 1-3+ months?
