And why would one terrorist (or even a bunch) warrant leveling a hospital full of civilians anyway? You know where they are (supposedly), why not gas them out or something, unless they aren't the real target ...

And if they do see it, he forces them to sign an NDA so he can threaten to sue the shit out of them to keep them silent.

Well, they also have them harassing houseless individuals. Trump has been using the poor as a way to desensitize people to armed troops in the streets, because I'm sure Miller is rock hard just thinking about rounding up everyone that:

1. didn't vote Trump

2. non-white

Saw video of him and Vance getting boo'd and you could just see his lust for bloodshed. And Trump is completely checked out at this point, because he just doesn't have enough neurons firing to do anything but cheat at golf.

Not a boomer, but was in Uni in '99. The '99/00 new year was a wild time because everyone waited to see if something had its update missed that would cause mass chaos.

In the end nothing of consequence happened.

Double check that math. 😜 It feels like only a few years ago, and it being a quarter century seems impossible.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is narrowing the capabilities and reducing the number of next-generation weather and climate satellites it plans to build and launch in the coming decades ...

And just like that, the US bows out of another scientific segment we could have been leaders in. It also would be cool if an asshole with a 4 year term wasn't able to screw us all for generations so easily.

Yeah, I'm glad we are dumping our money into dying industries like coal, and pollution heavy industries like oil.

If there is anything left of the US when Trump is done it's going to take generations to 180° the country out of its death march. I'm guessing we'll have destroyed the earth to the point we need to go full Wall-E by that point.

Well the US is doing our share to speed us to the end game through deregulation of anything environmental, and "drill baby drill".

It's like a bad movie you already know how it's going to end right from the beginning, and now you're just stuck watching until the end hoping to be wrong.

Indeed. It is somewhat similar to when man messes up an ecosystem either by introducing an invasive species, or decimating a species in an area. It doesn't affect everything, everywhere, but can severely change a local ecosystem in ways that may not be obvious.

A great example of this is how the wolves in Yellowstone changed the whole ecosystem of the park, both with the wolves removal, and again with their reintroduction.

Fair enough, I just can't imagine for me anything Jay could have put in that video that I would need any commentary done on it. Jay is a Windows/hardware guy making a Linux video for fun, trying to make it something it isn't is disingenuous, and if I even knew who this guy was I would avoid his content going forward as he clearly is scrapping the bottom of the barrel.

But I guess to each their own, a lot of people watch the slop which is why the bots/AI bros are flooding YouTube with videos. This is just one more video added to the mix.

Never heard of them, and their site doesn't leave me filled with confidence. They make a big deal about using a slower algorithm, call it zero trust, but also have a client that mounts your "drive" local seamlessly. In order to do that though your files need to be unencrypted before your OS can read them. So the client needs to be constantly encrypting and decrypting your files since it hypothetically has zero knowledge of your files at rest on their server.

I could see files getting scrambled/corrupted when it's being uploaded and downloaded in rapid succession.

Edit - You also shouldn't consider it a backup if you're accessing the files constantly like Dropbox. You are essentially just paying for a mountable S3 drive, not a backup.

Yep, this is a low effort video that had no real need to be made except to get clicks. It's like when Linus does his random Linux videos every couple of years, there is absolutely no value in making a "reaction video" about them. Nothing he says in those videos could be worth the creator's time, OR the viewers time.

Your agreement is we need these low effort, low value videos, and I strongly disagree. You might as well make "reaction videos" about whatever stupid shit Mr. Beast is doing, same amount of value. Garbage in -> garbage out.
