Just tried it, it has very similar results as Bing.

If you're running a lot of stuff on the same server, I agree with others that you'd want to use containers or VMs to avoid possible dependency hell. I prefer containers so I don't have multiple OSs using RAM. I've never used Proxmox, but if I understand correctly, it's an OS specifically built for running containers and VMs more easily, so I'm guessing that'd be a good choice. I personally just use Ubuntu LTS or Debian, Docker, and SSH to administer my servers, because that's what I'm familiar with.

A cheap used Desktop PC off Craigslist or whatever should be fine. Desktops are more upgradable and configurable. You'd want to make sure the CPU and Mobo support however much RAM you'd want. Ext4 is fine if using a single disk; ZFS for multiple disks with redundancy. Preferably, a smallish SSD for the OS disk, but not required.

*arr stack for pirating: https://wiki.servarr.com/

Jellyfin for serving media. You may want something like the cheapest Intel Arc GPU for transcoding if you're going to serve HDR video to low-spec devices.

Nextcloud for basic file sharing. NFS for high performance file sharing with Linux machines, if needed. Syncthing for syncing files if you need that.

Immich for something similar to Google Photos, if needed.

Also if they can’t afford that, surely they have state medical insurance

Ha! No, depending on the state, there are tons of barriers, means-testing, work requirements, mandated classes they might not be able to attend (due to childcare/lack of transportation), etc.

Even after the ACA, ER visits are still all the healthcare many people get.

Yeah, I would suggest using a hosting provider and domain registrar that is unlikely to immediately hand over information to US authorities. Could also go further by paying with an anonymized cryptocurrency, and perhaps administering things over a trustworthy and non-US VPN or Tor; that's probably not required at the moment, in my opinion at least.

TBF, I'd prefer a random felon over a random DA. Also, the people did elect many Democrat representatives, who are not doing their jobs in the eyes of most of the people who have elected them. And the answer to "how can we help,” is always donating to them to do so little, even when they were in power.

I was wondering this is well. Took me a while to find this discussion: https://woem.men/notes/9ozhpn3l2n5v0b6c

He claims he only created an account to "investigate" if they were talking about him.

Another worrying thing I accidentally stumbled on a while back was he was in the streamer "Destiny" chat. Hmm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgF92Wi8J7o (said he used to listen to Jordan Peterson in 2015 too).

Yeah, IDK what to think about him now. I still like his consumer advocacy though, I guess.

I recently went back to pirating and transferring music to my phone like it was an iPod, lol. VLC is a good player (and works with Android Auto), and Strawberry is good on Linux for listening and library management. The SoulSeek network has a lot of hard to find stuff in flac (I use the Nicotine+ client).

Why stainless over cheap regular ceramic plates or drinking glasses?

This sounds interesting. I think the possible technical/legal/organizational problems could be overcome pretty easily. I personally know nothing about "resisting" or anything like that, so wouldn't be able to contribute. I feel a lot of information is already published in some form or another by many other disparate groups, and it may be useful to aggregate and link it all in one place. I think it may be hard to nail-down the scope of the project, and stuff like what are acceptable forms of resistance to write about. Some people may suggest joining grifter organizations, or federal honeypots, or whatever other crazy organizations there are out there. I think a lot of "resistance" is ephemeral ATM, like the protests being organized by random groups, and is only useful information for a limited time (though I guess it could be useful to keep it, and maybe try to record estimated turnout and stuff like that).

I guess the biggest problem I see is that some content may be commentary or opinionated, and you'd probably want to enforce what opinions are acceptable. Or, you could try to do the Wikipedia, neutral POV thing, somehow. For instance, AFAIK, the implied plan about banning trans information is just conjecture at this point, and I'm not sure it would hold up to standards like Wikipedia has (I do believe this is a plan Republicans have in mind though). However, if rules are too lax, people could end-up posting outlandish conspiracy theories. So, not sure the best way to thread that needle.

I'd argue that even if gen-AI art is indistinguishable from human art, human art is better. E.g. when examining a painting you might be wondering what the artist was thinking of, what was going on in their life at the time, what they were trying to convey, what techniques they used and why. For AI art, the answer is simply it's statistically similar to art the model has been trained on.

But, yeah, stuff like game textures usually aren't that deep (and I don't think they're typically crafted by hand by artists passionate about the texture).

If I understand correctly, measles can be very contagious 4 days before rashes appear (through respiratory droplets from coughing). I think a person could mistakenly think they just have a cold or flu (or Covid) before rashes appear. It can also have a ~12 day incubation period without symptoms (but I don't think it's very contagious before symptoms appear).
