Man, y'all are the craziest bunch on Lemmy. Some real fire memery here in TenForward.

Humans also experience very powerful emotions. It is entirely possible to feel a sense of the sublime or epiphany or profound and misattribute those feelings to some kind of supernatural cause. If you're never taught to critically examine your emotions, it is easy to bask in those feelings and be accepting of supernatural explanations for those feelings.

Because otherwise, they would be standing in the way of a hilarious giant schlong joke.

@glimse didn't realize it was pitch black. And what was likely to happen around a certain hungry memer.

We had two time travelers try to save the future before the election. I am not terribly confident the future resistance can muster the resources to send a third.

"What country before ever existed a century and half without a rebellion? And what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manure."

Step 6: We feed the billionaires to the wood chipper and have French Revolution: American-style.

Even 2km in the rain ain't that bad. It is also less hassle to walk than get an OV fiets for those 2km.

Even these boxes will allow a serial connection. You can just open a tty and you can treat it just like a PC... if you're comfortable on the command line.

Anything can be a server really, including your toaster: https://laughingsquid.com/netbsd-toaster/

But typically, servers are built with more performant and reliable hardware in mind. The kinds of servers your PC or phone talk to when checking your email or watching a video are rack mounted and basically look like a pizza box

And a rack can have dozens of these stack on top of one another, and a data center can have hundreds or thousands of racks.

But nothing is stopping you from treating your home PC as a server. The software is the same since the same kinds of chips are in both your PC and the rackmount servers (generally). Running Linux on your desktop/laptop can allow you to do normal computer stuff, AND also share files, host a personal blog, share a printer, run a bittorrent tracker, or a tor relay, or even your own email. Some of this is even possible in Windows versions that aren't "Server".
