Goddam roomba!

Hasn’t happened yet.

I just say: “Well, I’m going to bed. You’re welcome to stay if you like. I can bring you some bedding for the couch. Otherwise, please lock the door on your way out.”

You aren’t going to win every battle, even if you end up winning the war. And obviously, winning any battle is never a foregone conclusion, but sometimes you have to fight anyway.

It’s definitely cheaper by a lot in the long run just to host at home, and if I could get Gigabit symmetrical internet, I would do that. I really like being able to access my library from anywhere in the world, and I also share it with a handful of friends/family. I could ask them to contribute to the cost, but then I’d feel obligated to support!

I’ve never hit any rate limits if there are any.

My total cost for the VPS that runs my stack, plus the Hetzner storage box is around $50 USD/mo.

I have the storage box mounted as an encrypted volume using rclone.

Mines “in the cloud” and my 20TB storage box is almost full 😭

Gotta try.

Organizing is always the solution. Ideal world or not, how could you possibly change structures as an individual. Of course it is an uphill battle, but it’s still a battle we have to fight.

The antidote is class consciousness and solidarity. Some may think that this just replaces one enemy with another, but fascists blame the powerless, while my side blames the powerful.

Remember when the Nazis surrendered because of all the witty placards people marched with?

🙄

Let’s get a map of ICE agent home addresses.

I’m someone with a leg in both tendencies, as it were. I purposely avoid getting too into the theory weeds, in favor of interacting with actual people. I see the word “tankie” used veeerrryyy liberally lately, and it feels like it doesn’t signify very much. Respectfully, thinking about “immediately after the revolution” is getting way ahead of yourself, at least in relation to who you work with today.

I love my anarchist comrades and I love my communist comrades. I hate seeing memes like this. May we all be lucky enough to argue in the midst of a real revolution. Until then, focus on the fucking fascists.
