  • It’s not true if you live in a deep red state. They treat politics like football teams and REFUSE to ever change parties because their whole family tree has voted red, so they won’t change it.

    Also most pastors here are hard MAGA and think gay people are going to murder them at every chance, so they spread constant propaganda to the members, so they all vote red as well.

    It’s a well thought out propaganda train to take advantage of the fact 90% of these people have a 5th grade education and at least 3-4 children.







  • The mounting point changes. So it may be sd1, then disconnect and show up as sb1 and then i tried to permanently mount through fstab, but still didn’t work. Connection setup? Not sure what you mean by that, but computer is hardwired to the network, external drive was connected via USB 3.0 in several different ports to see if it was a motherboard issue. I am on Cinnamon Mint 22 and i believe kernel 6.14.




  • The only thing that sucks about switching to linux is moving my external NTFS USB drives to my new linux server.

    Linux HATES NTFS, hates usb drivers, and hates external drives that aren’t formatted to ext4. fstab doesn’t work for my WD Elements, so i just gave up and shucked the drive and put it inside.

    I can’t fit 5 3.5" hard drives in my SFF dell 3070, so i’m stuck on windows right now, but they keep doing random updates the last few weeks and my windows explorer freezes constantly and my computer barely works. So i’m going to have to switch to linux and possibly reformat all 36TB’s to ext4. Not excited about that at all.

    So either reformat all my external drives, buy a very expensive NAS with an external SATA port and hope my motherboard recognizes them.


  • Leaving reddit has helped me substantially. That website is full of bots and trolls. The admins are power hungry and really angry for some reason.

    I started reading again, doing more art and not doomscrolling as much. I could waste 3 or 4 hours easily scrolling through the reddit shithole and learn nothing.

    I do miss the modding subreddits and the mechanics subreddits cause i like working on stuff and most of the post here are program/linux based. But as time goes on, this site will get better with more people and posts.







  • Those are songs, not actions. Many of us had much larger plans and were sold a life that we never had the opportunity to have.

    Most of us got trapped in low wage jobs or not getting a job at all after college. All of us had to go through several recessions, inflation skyrocketing, politicians bought by the wealthy so you can’t run for office unless you are well connected, housing market crashed, etc.

    Getting into politics to change all of the issues we saw was never an option. There is always a wealthier, better connected opponent to win.

    Trickle down economics was a lie and most of us got cheated out of life and never got to amass the wealth needed to actually MAKE CHANGE HAPPEN. We spend all our time working, keeping our little relationships alive, and trying to make it day to day.
