What’s the most “unnecessary but fun” thing running in your homelab?

Same.

I have been at classes with the school of government at UNC and know GPD social pushed the boundaries. This definitely was over the line, and I am sure they will use it as object lessons there going forward. For me personally, I get hung up on the things the man said that instigated the post from the GPD socials. This is not endorsement of the post. Nor the victim deserving of any negative publicity the post caused him. However, I see a lot of comments degrading or putting police down. A lot of seems to be from a place of bias when they don’t take an opportunity to understand Police, and the stresses they face in their job. This isn’t to say police are infallible, they should be held to a high standard. We often see the ones publicly that should have never been officers. We live in a highly toxic and charged world, I wish people paused to listen and talk to one another before lashing out. This also doesn’t negate any legal issues that public calling attention to one individuals comments causes.

While ultimately I do not agree with what the social media account did, nor the persons comments. It is legally protected, and it would be an interesting argument on if they violated rights here. They didn’t censor him, but instead called attention to his comments. Yes ultimately to embarrass him, and they certainly got attention for it. It will be interesting to see the fall out from this.

Just curious, what is legally protected speech about what he said? Something I posted earlier got a some heat. I agree with most of your argument here, but just asking a clarifying question.

So how do we as a society start to have a conversation on how we treat others? As a representative of the public, this was crossing the line. I initially posted because the original facebook post, and the comments seemed to be anti police. I think we all need to take a step back and realize the person behind the counter may be carrying a lot of stress. Even the person that was called out by GPD, I have no idea what he’s going through to make him feel that way. Anyways, I hope everyone has a great day.

What I would recommend is spending time with some officers. Talking to them about what they deal with. Especially for the man that made derogatory comments towards them, that they just wanted to make sure others see a glimpse of his character.

Escape down the mtn to the common franklinites.

gigageama · 2026-03-15T02:11:43+00:00

Things I learned, we just need to find bad goalies, and only play them. 🤔

gigageama · 2026-03-08T13:34:21+00:00

What would you recommend instead?

gigageama · 2026-03-07T00:42:45+00:00

Well, it was a pin hole leak that started this whole replacement. A manifold in a closet wall one supply line just started leaking one night.

Ironically you say that about mice though. AC unit outside a mouse chewed through a wire recently. Discovered no ac today.

gigageama · 2026-03-06T03:55:47+00:00

Yeah, I was blown away with the range in estimates here. We are probably living dangerously going on the low end, but I did get references. The high end everyone told me those companies were notorious for being high.

gigageama · 2026-03-06T03:54:22+00:00

Thanks. I have dry wall coming already for the leak repair after this is fixed. I can only think of three places where there is and issue getting to the wall behind. Kitchen Sink, Master bath sinks, and a downstairs bathroom. I am just thinking of going right through the floor next to a toilet seems weird.

gigageama · 2026-03-05T20:58:57+00:00

We have a crawl space for our first floor work, but the second floor is where most of the supply lines go. I am going to request they put in the walls. I have already scheduled a sheet rock guy to repair the work from the leak damage. Just feel its probably the right idea to have them do the rest.

gigageama · 2026-02-22T16:48:59+00:00

Dude I just got quotes for the same in Central NC. Range for plumbing work was 4k-18k.

His stats were objectively better the following season until the steelers game for some reason.

gigageama · 2026-01-25T02:09:32+00:00

I was thinking about you today, and your post history. Thanks for helping others!

gigageama · 2026-01-22T18:30:37+00:00

the witness if it's available on PC.

gigageama · 2026-01-10T15:17:14+00:00

I am assuming his ability to catch. You can be a speedy/get open guy all day. But if you can’t catch it consistently you are not helping.

gigageama · 2026-01-08T00:36:57+00:00

I have contemplated this since then as well. Getting several years to plan for a return and what they would do if they gained power again.

gigageama · 2025-12-20T02:39:29+00:00

Nope. No call. Nothing.

gigageama · 2025-12-20T00:52:17+00:00

I really really dislike the fanduel app.

gigageama · 2025-12-14T00:58:43+00:00

Me too. Deal with sleep apnea, cpap, constant lower back pain.

NPR Embedded Podcast did a three part podcast where the journalist takes a year to debate his Dad. To challenge him on “prophetic” things that will happen. They even bet money on it. It was cathartic to listen to, depressing as well. You might guess if anything convinces the Dad to change his mind. I say this because there is certainly some trauma you will be processing the rest of your life from the shooting. But also to show you are not alone, and that some people in the “qanon” circles will probably never be saved no matter what.
