lol ok.

we stole this AI model because it's cheap and works great and we totally "took out all the bad stuff." Come buy API tokens. lelz.

I quite literally don't have the mental fortitude to fight with your incompetence. It absolutely amazes me that we live in a day and a time when people like you don't understand what renaming something is. It makes me want to fucking cry--how we could have fallen so far as a civilization...

See my analogy about the school principal. I pray you're smart enough to connect the dots, but I'm not holding out hope.

I can’t find reference to this, and Google’s saying that it’s their choice here:

Of course it's their choice. In the same way that it's your choice whether or not to pay taxes. That doesn't mean there's no consequences if you don't.

A country can specify use of an official name internally.

Which is not renaming. That's not what that word means.

But a leader could tell the government that he runs to use it.

Yes, this is exactly what I've said. Trump spent tens of millions telling his own Government to change the designation of a location that we don't own, and people suck his dick like he did something amazing. He quite literally wasted everyone's time and money for nothing.

Even in the US, private organizations are not legally-required to call it “Gulf of America”.

This is incorrect. Google, a private organization is legally required to call it the Gulf of America because they're a defense contractor.

It’s not that unusual for names to differ across countries.

This isn't a difference in language. It's been called the Gulf of Mexico globally since 1550. So for 475 years every single country in the world has called it by its proper name, and now, for no reason whatsoever, we call it something different. The sheer ignorance and stupidity of it is positively baffling--most of all because people pretend like it's not a big deal.

This is why I hate you people. Like truly hate you. Because you're so incredibly fucking stupid. Trump didn't even rename the damn thing. Not only does he not have that power, but it's not an asset owned by the US. But even if we did own it, he still couldn't do it. What he did was change US official policy to reflect that the Gulf of Mexico should now federally be referred to as the Gulf of America.

You don't even understand what it is that he did. It's tantamount to getting a phone call by your kids Principal saying "hey, I renamed your kid to Samantha" and you being like "well, that's not legal... why are you so goddamn stupid?" and people being like "LOL THE PRINCIPAL ALREADY RENAMED HER, YOU CAN'T ARGUE WITH REALITY! TEEE HEE!" when in "reality" the only thing the Principal did was update your kids name in the schools computer software because it's not possible for someone to rename shit that they don't own...

That’s not even a statement I can respond to

Yeah. I figured you couldn't.

You just showed proof that Trump provided lower gas prices than other presidents.

I even specifically took the time to tell you how to read the chart, and it's blatantly obvious that you not only didn't read me telling you that higher numbers are better for the ratios, but you don't understand it, either.

Intelligence is trying to catch you, but you're just too damn fast, aren't you?

They spent hundreds of millions setting up the program and it's projected to funnel $15 billion annually into the MTA. But sure, they'll, totally just put everything down and walk away because the President says he no longer approves. lol.

Forgejo. ♥

Github uses its own proprietary platform which it resells, Github Enterprise.

Gitlab uses a FOSS alternative engine, but IMO it's super heavy for 90% of use cases.

Forgejo checks all the right boxes. Lightweight. FOSS. Still not convinced? Check out Gitea.

Reminds me of the ‘gulf of America.’ No, it’s not an egomaniac move. Changing the water nationality changes the tax rate on oil aka gas prices. Trump has historically maintained favor with gas prices.

You completely lost me.

1. Trump cannot rename the Gulf of Mexico. It's not land that the US owns. It's international waters.
2. The "nationality" didn't change. So your little tirade about taxes is not only supreme bullshit, but it's not even in the same universe as correct.
3. Trump has historically had higher gas prices than almost any other President.

The proof is in the pudding;

The price of gasoline means absolute dick at the end of the day. The ratio of median household income to the price of gasoline is what's important. The closer to 0 = more expensive. These numbers are skewed by 1 year and stop in 2024, unfortunately. So that means that COVID is showing during 2021 of Biden's Presidency. But if you take Biden out to account for COVID you'll see that the only other President, during which the price of fuel was extremely expensive, was Bush 2 and that's because we went to War in Iraq which is reflected in Obama's term....

There's absolutely zero validity to your statement whatsoever.

Now to guess which ones will still be maintained in 5 years 😆

If you figure it out, lemme know. lol

That's..... Interesting. I've been using Ventoy professionally for like... 2-3 years now and I've not once had an issue with daily use. Unironically like 2500-3000 uses without issue.

Generally Ventoy is better than both. Choose a dedicated flash storage, flash Ventoy to it, then click and drag as many ISO's as can fit on your drive and you can boot from any one of them at any time.

Much better than Etcher or Rufus, IMO.

Here ya go: https://selfh.st/apps/

Will cover about 90% of your bases there. You can even look up proprietary software and it will show you self-hostable alternatives.

My goto would be wireguard, is that still a good option?

Yes.

Private cloud/File server

https://selfh.st/apps/?tag=File+Sharing

Is a local video streaming app actually useful for a rare watcher of movies etc, or can they be streamed directly from the file server?

You can do it any number of ways. I have it setup a pretty cool way, I think. I leave my PC on all the time. I also have a home NAS with all my media files on it. I host Jellyfin server on my PC and in the Jellyfin settings link to the network location of the files (\\nas\media\tv, etc). Works great, especially for transcoding because I run the server on my Windows PC, it gets access to my GPU for transcoding. Really great setup I like to think. Only drawback being you have to leave your PC on all the time, which doesn't bother me.

Is Docker the way to go for everything? or just install on the machine directly?

There are alternatives to docker, like LXC but they're not as widely used as Docker. So unfortunately...

Another option for you could be Hyper-V if you don't mind using your PC to run containers. I like it better than running docker containers.

That's not how that works. Kroger is reasonably responsible now for ensuring that their suppliers aren't run by cartels. If they don't do due diligence, they can get into legal trouble now.

Quite literally the only thing Trump has ever done that I'm okay with.
