If you go through all of the laws and regulations we truck drivers have to follow, you would find that only about half of them have a direct impact on road safety. Most of the others have an indirect impact only.

Might take a look at NextCloud though it may be overkill as it’s intended to be a full Google Cloud or Office365 replacement. On the other hand, it is modular so you only have to set up what you actually need.

I have to agree with @Wilco@lemm.ee, though the issue is not really while going down the road.

Language barriers become an issue at pickups, drop offs, truck stops, weigh stations and anywhere else where you might need to follow a precise set of oddball instructions.

Don’t bother preaching, it’s a waste of breath and is just annoying to the average person.

If I remember the Halo books correctly (it’s been a while) the Spartan armor started out a golden color but dulled to green hue due to hits from Covenant energy weapons over time. Not particularly relevant to this discussion but I thought it was an interesting bit of lore.

I need to go back and reread them. Great series and well written for the most part.

Originally doom guy was just a face at the bottom of the HUD that grunted and got bloody as you took hits. The only images of him I remember was just a marine in green combat armor, not too dissimilar to modern real world combat armor, standing on a pile of dead demons and zombies(1993) and the 3rd person cinematics from Doom 3 (early 2000s ish?) where again he looked just like a normal human marine.

Halo come around in the mid 2000’s and Master Chief was never shown outside his armor or with his helmet off. Outside the TV show I’m not sure if that is still the case.

Not sure when the modern images of doom guy came about but I think it was around 2015. Probably not earlier.

There’s a couple of options.

I’ve used Grocy. It’s not intended for that particular use case but it would work. More for Grocery management.

Vanilla? XFCE was looked a bit like Win 95/98 the last time I used it, say 5 to 10 years ago. I’ve been using KDE which reminds me more of XP or Vista in default configuration. Probably why I like KDE so much.

What your probably looking for though is a theme.

Given that my experience with the US healthcare system has largely been terrible over the last 20 years, cant say I’m shocked. Seems like every doc I visit is either a legal drug dealer or a damned rolidex. “You need to see a specialist”. Please. Every damned specialist I need has a waiting list 6 months long.

There was any doubt?

Yep.

Thats a new one on me. What did that do if I may ask? Best I have been able to figure out is that it’s probably IRC related but that’s it.

Technically, they still can be prosecuted through the impeachment process. It doesn’t seem likely to happen at the moment but still it’s possible.

Canonical? the US could try but Canonical isn’t a US company so far as I know. The attempt would probably just piss off their “home” nation. That would be the UK, I think.

Red Hat is another story though. It’s owned by IBM which is a US company, which means it is, in theory, obliged to obey any lawful order of the US government. I say “in theory” because there is a long history of companies here saying “Yes sir, Yes sir, Three bags full sir.” and then doing whatever they want when no one is looking anymore. For examples see Facebook, Google, OpenAI, Exxon IBM, Coke, Ford and… Well just about every company that has been around for more than 20 years and most small businesses to boot.

Practically speaking, though. These companies are based around open source projects whose source code has been widely distributed. If you need to, (or hell, even if you just want to) fork them, rename the project to avoid trademarks, and move on. Whether you flip Uncle Sam the bird as you do so, your call.

Depends on your threat model, but you’re probably fairly secure from remote unauthorized access right now.

Given that I’m American, I would put the *arr stack behind a dedicated VPN container like gluetun and set Gluetun up using a “no logs” VPN.

For remote access, Tailscale can probably get around that double NAT. If you have it on your devices as well as your server, you won’t necessarily need to expose anything publicly.

If that’s not an option, you could set up an external VPS to run a reverse proxy (Caddy perhaps) and use the Tailscale connection to connect the VPS to your home server. There are fully self hosted ways to do this (Headscale comes to mind), but Tailscale is how I personally would solve this.

They are, among every thing else tobacco related.

They are, to the tobacco industry, what TTI is to power tools. Among the companies they own are Philip Morris (Cigarettes, Cigars and pipe tobacco), US Smokeless (dip, snuff and whatnot), and NJOY (vaping).

I remember reading somewhere that most of the caffeine used in things that don’t usually have caffeine, comes from the byproduct of making decaf coffee.Not sure how true that is though.

Don’t know about booze, bullets and bread, but there does seem to be alot of folks taking up smoking again. Altria stock has shot up like a rocket over the last 12 months.

Good article, but dear god, either hire an editor, or put it through a spelling and grammar checker. Preferably both.

I would have been surprised if they hadn’t fired her. Good on those two for causing a ruckus for a cause they believe in though. Nonviolent one too, well done.
