Did you replace your SATA cable when you installed the new SSD? Maybe the failure is there.

It's similar only in that it's about a "Great man" remaking a society in collapse.

Really none of the themes are there. Nor is there any journey of discovery to understand who Caesar is, like you get in Atlas Shrugged where other characters learn who John Galt is.

Galt is "Self interest and belief in my vision will make society better". Caesar is "McGuffin building materials and belief in my vision will make society better". For all its flaws, one is at least a political statement, while the other is milquetoast hopium.

This movie is so hard to talk about, because the question is: "What is it even about?"

I like movies with abstract themes and strange storytelling, but this was just incomprehensible. Its plot revolves around the machinations of rich men to control the future of their city "New Rome", but the plot is kinda meaningless. There's never any real threat to Caesar's goal. Just plot events that could be obstacles but then are immediately resolved/neutered. Ok, fine! Surely then it's an art-house piece with a deep message? The plot points must be there for the sake of a larger theme. I was waiting for everything to add up in the finale, but it just ends up with Caesar delivering a speech filled with platitudes so bland that I thought it was a joke. Then the credits rolled and the 2 of the other 5 people in the theater with me started laughing.

Yep, the problem was that docker started before the NFS mount. Adding the dependency to my systemd docker unit did the trick!

isn’t it an annoyance having to connect to your home network all the time?

It's less annoying than the gnawing fear that my network might be an easy target for attackers.

This is exactly the same "problem" as when open-source projects started enforcing codes of conduct: Any organization is an inherently political entity and is entitled to make political decisions about who can or can't be a member of that organization.

I've seen lots of $word-$number named-accounts claiming that this "puts in jeopardy the future of open source". Fuck off. There's no evidence that these people are banned from submitting patches to the kernel, just that they've been removed from a particular role of authority within an organization.

And to the people saying "But why U trust NSA to submit patches?!"... motherfucker if you're only worrying about that now, you're many years too late. I've been told by an angel in a dream that TempleOS is still free from CIA interference.

So many bad-faith arguments being made about this.

Independent of any arguments about who asked for this to happen and why: A free software project always has the right to choose which contributors it trusts and which it doesn't. I've seen no evidence that these people are banned from submitting patches due to their nationality. They've been remove from a particular role in the project due to political reasons. An organization is an inherently political entity.

Remember when codes of conduct destroyed all of free software and nothing ever got built again? Me neither. It's the same thing.

Maybe just say "Hey, X isn't running this game. I am". If you're open to their participation, you could add "But if you'd like to join us, would you mind introducing yourself?". If you don't want them to join, you could say "Sorry, but I already have enough players for this campaign"

Maybe not for the plot (since it's never referenced or brought up ever again in the film) but I think it does work thematically:

This would be the one real miraculous event in Brian's life. If anything, you would expect that a man who fell from a tower, got picked up by a flaming ball, and returned safely to the ground would be hailed as a holy person by all witnesses.

Instead, nobody gives a fuck and in the next couple of scenes Brian becomes a holy figure through entirely unrelated and mundane means.

Especially gardening tools.

Why does every fucking house in our neighborhood need its own lawnmower, weedwacker, and hedge trimmer? You only need it for an hour or two every month.

Maybe they're not mammal nipples, but happen to look like it.
