  • I don’t care about it because it’s a NASA mission and I’ve noticed that anything American these days makes me nauseous.

    Call me anything you like, I don’t care, this is how o feel after years of america bullshit and decades of more murrica bullshit with their preprogrammed exceptionalism.

    I look down upon them, I pity them at best

    And then there is something as great as this and I just can help but feel like it’s tainted somehow. I know it’s an international collaboration, but still, the smell somehow remains

    I’m sorry, but fuck, so much misery and death and suffering has been brought to the world by the US for so long already… Trump is just the next iteration taking this place to its natural conclusion. Of course trump is corrupt, the country has been through and through corrupt for decades. This is just a typical self absorbed American grabbing the chance geven to get me myself and I to the top.

    So yeah, mixed feelings at best.

    On the flipside of that…

    There are tonnes of jobs that need to be done but that nobody likes to do. Take garbage disposal. Very few people are willing to do this, and the people that do this surely don’t get paid even nearly enough.

    There aren’t jobs you’ll find many volunteers for. Sometimes there is just work to be done and somebody has got to do it




  • their service provider was Rogers

    Well that right there is your problem

    Rogers is -by far and far- the worst provider bthst has ever existed. If you host something there, it’s on you.

    The company I work at still has a lot hosted there and it’s laughably bad

    3 ovh servers with a total cost of 700 dollars gives me 10 times the amount of hardware (ram, storage) at about 10 times the speed (100MB/s write speeds at Rogers, 1600MB/s on Rogers AFTER the encryption layer, so absolute speeds are probably still twice higher than that) for 10 times less the cost (Rogers does 7000/month)

    The Rogers team once upgraded a 5 server farm from Windows 2012 to 2019 and took 1 year and 4 months to complete this

    Random half hour downtimes are a weekly tradition, especially about a year ago

    Sometimes they just accidentally disconnect servers to the point where the filesystems get so corrupted that it’s irrecoverable. Multiple times

    Rogers happily overcharges almost double for months, hoping you won’t notice

    And most of our servers are still there. Don’t ask why I don’t know, it’s dumb




  • Totally this.

    I remember reading somewhere long ago about how in Israel gas masks were this taboo thing that came all the way from the holocaust where certain people had it as a kink to wear that with sex, and maybe even inhaling something…

    I think its a “natural” part of humanity to have these kinks, and as long as they are done safely I have little problem with it.

    The real problem is though that people DO like this, but they hate that they like it. This is where you get a pastor screeching how they hate gays because they are so yuckie, yet they snort cocaine from a gay escort dick. (Yeah, I"m talking about that guy)







  • Did you miss the “Slowly string up gays with a crane” memo from Iran?

    Did you miss the “Public executions” memo from Iran?

    Did you miss the “Torture prisons” memo from Iran? Seriously, look up “Evin Confess” on spotify, the singer actually spent some “fun vacation” in that place because they didn’t like his music much

    Seriously, the Iranian government is a fucked up government that needs to go. Same for Saudi Arabia, by the way, same shit, different name. These are repressive and violent regimes. Whatever fucked up thing the US and Israel are doing has nothing to do with that, doesn’t change anything about that. And yes, the Israeli government too is evil and fucked up and too has to go because they just seem unable to stop genociding because they like it too much.

    What is up with you idiots trying to protect these horrible creatures? Why?
