  • I run Debian on most of my systems and run all of my services in docker (with rare exceptions for node_exporter or stable core tools). My base systems get automatic security upgrades, and then I’ll manually check in every few weeks whenever I feel like it.

    My services in docker are version locked to a specific major version (when there’s a tag available) so I can usually re-pull to get minor version updates freely without breaking issues. My few more finnickey services get manual upgrades from me every 6 months or so only.

    I usually stick to an OS version for as long as I can, and to that aim I stick to LTS versions with long support windows.

    4 major versions in 12mo is…a lot. Especially if those include breaking changes for you. Yikes

    If God created it in that state then they should be curious to understand that creation. They look at rainbows as the beauty of creation but not the fact that lead exists in these crystals. It’s all equally beautifully complex. So why not try to understand it.

    If God made the world look like it was created billions of years ago there must be something worth learning from that, even if you believe it was snapped into existence 6000 years ago.





  • I think this is the strongest protection against this attack. You’d need to identify enough people at enough varied polling locations to be significant enough to sway an election.

    Do too many at one location and it raises flags. Cast a vote with a name that also votes absentee or at another location, raises flags.

    You’d have to distribute enough fake votes over a large enough area and across enough different shifts to not get anyone’s attention. And that’s expensive and hard to keep secret due to how many people would be involved.


  • A lot of food safety laws are built around the highest levels of safety because you never know how vulnerable one of your patrons might be. I have no idea about the actual health impacts but based on that I assume it’s another minor vector for foodbourne illness that alone has a really small impact.

    I’m more worried about what it means about the rest of the kitchen’s cleanliness. Hairnets/hats are easy, so if they can’t do that then what else are they forgetting?






  • No legal issues at all. Worst case they will blackball you from interviewing at that company for a few years, and tell other companies in that industry, or others that work with those recruoters at least, that you’re a flake and try to get you blackballed there too. And that’s going to be incredibly rare and only really happen if you’re an asshole about it or no-call-no-show the interview and waste their time.

    Politely decline to continue with them, they’ll probably appreciate that you’re being honest and not wasting their time interviewing you for you to just say no later.

    “I’ve decided to pursue other endeavors, thank you for your time”.



  • Finding pockets of self sufficiency, or at least ways to prevent falling down to the bottom.

    Universal basic income helps this by making sure everyone has at least enough to live on.

    Homesteading and community gardens help this by making sure you at least have some basic amount of food available to you.

    Building walkable cities helps.this by allowing you to avoid or reduce the expenses of a car.

    Building resilient cities that leverage adaptive reuse help this by making it cheaper to start new small community businesses that keep money local.

    The solutions aren’t in the system of money we choose, it’s in building small sustainable ways to provide for basic needs, even in a small way.


  • Many registrars let you buy a domain and set up dynamic DNS for it within their system so you can own a domain and get dyndns on it.

    Otherwise you could accomplish it with a VPS but you’d only need the smallest one available because it would just need to run nginx to forward to your home ip (and a small tool to update that IP when it changes). So you could probably get something for less than $5/mo.
