NYC: Not even once.
It isn't normal for your kids to die of fentanyl poisoning. But in NYC it is.

Sometimes it's like "Oh my god the politicians are all crazy and the world is crazy"
Then you say a joke to your wife most people would get offended by and she gets it.
And does it really matter as much after that?

It takes 9 months to make a baby, no matter how many women you put on the job, and it takes a long term to do long-term testing, no matter how many test subjects you have.
[Admin mode] last one for a while hopefully, everything is working fine, so I disabled evasive mode. All's well.
Theres a skill I call "machine empathy" which people working with barely functioning machines learn where they start to understand why stuff breaks and think like a machine. When things basically work you don't need it as much. That's why so many people who are "good with technology" fold the moment their Facebook isn't working right.
Yeah, you mix the pouches with distilled water to make a buffer. It'll be a 4, 7, and 10 likely.
No reason to think it won't, but you'd want a 7 buffer and a 10 buffer to do a 2-point calibration to prove it's functionality.
YouTube kinda sucks for mushoku tensei content because it starts showing videos just filled with series wide.spoilers.
It's like "did you know that snape kills Dumbledore and rosebud is the sled?" No I didn't wtf why would you post this?

I think crusaders of might and magic was very different on psx and PC despite a similar story and graphics. I remember the heroism skill being totally broken on PlayStation but I don't remember exactly why. I think it raises your level, so if you cast it then you get more mana to cast it again but maybe at a higher level using your higher level so you can get in a bit of a loop? I don't remember exactly, it was a long time ago.
The PC version as I recall was a lot more like a crpg and so the Mechankcs were totally different.
Anyone else play that back in the day?

I think both can be problems, to be honest. It's important not to spend too much time focusing on what others think or who thinks a certain thing, because you might end up inadvertently steering away from good ideas or towards bad ideas because someone in particular has the same ideas.
Carrying capacity is a fundamental part of environmentalism. In biology, there's for example so much vegetation, and say it can support 100 deer, and that would be equilibrium. The amount of vegetation available to support the deer would be a function of the quality of the soil, the amount of sunlight, and the specific adaptions of the local vegetation against the deer. If you got 101 deer, there would be no immediate effects, but the vegetation would be eaten a bit too quickly for the vegetation to recover and if nothing changes the population will eventually drop because there won't be enough food.
If we're going to live in harmony with nature, we need to think the same with humans. There are locations where you don't need a lot of energy just to survive (this is particularly important with respect to local temperatures -- temperate climates where you rarely need to heat or cool your home are ideal), and it's relatively easy to farm locally, so you can live off the land with what's there and have lots of people and it's relatively OK. On the other hand, there's locations where every person needs a lot of extra energy to survive because it's too hot and needs cooling or it's too cold and it needs heating, and you can live on renewables in those regions, but if you overpopulate then you end up requiring the fossil fuel subsidy (or the nuclear power subsidy) to make up the difference between the energy you can produce and the energy to need to not have everyone die.
There is a fixed limit on the renewables that could be practically generated in a particular region, so it does matter the energy balance compared to the population.
Population size matters a lot. Ontario has roughly 10x the population of Manitoba. If instead it had 2x the population of Manitoba (it has about twice the geographical area of Manitoba, so that isn't unreasonable), then the hydroelectric generation alone would fully power the province with room to spare with no need for nuclear or oil and gas.
It's interesting given the totality of the discussion then, the dichotomy (Anakin noooooo) that high population density is really necessary for Chinese-style high speed rail to be effective, but the same high population density in many regions in North America (particularly up north) would require fossil fuel subsidies in the same way that China despite its trains uses 50% of all the coal burned on earth every year (which would bring up the next thing the elites wouldn't like, that the developing world is the developed world's environmental painting of Dorian Gray -- we pretend we're so good because we don't burn coal because we get China to burn it for us).

The database cleanup was just running a couple of built in pleroma scripts that clean up old data (cleaning out 25GB of remote posts!), but the real issue seems to have been a number of faulty packets with invalid addresses being aimed at fbxl social in particular (once I stopped accepting packets for fbxl domains the server came back and once I started again)
My hypothesis so far is that either intentionally due to malicious attack or unintentionally due to a misconfigured server a bunch of these malformed packets were sent my way, and filled up connection slots in the kernel, locking up not just http but telnet and icmp. Once I added some configuration changes to increase the number of connection slots and also to filter any packets with bad addresses (sysctl calls them martian packets since they come from "alien" address spaces) the connection issues ceased.

Just imagine, some shady guy on a streetcorner, "Hey, hey. Do you want the right turn signal from a 1987 datsun?"
Yes, it is important to note that practical considerations of the amount of energy people use is not related to judgements of a person's value as a human being, particularly based on genetics or cultures. An Englishman living in India using little energy is no different than a Punjabi living in India for this calculation, same as an Englishman or Punjabi in Alaska burning oil all winter to not die.
Fair enough in that regard. Cheap energy does help reduce Fossil fuels in other use, however. Quebec and Norway are using renewables for 70% of heating, and industry wants to use electric when it can because electricity is cleaner, safer, and generally easier. Controlling electric vs. gas is so easy and cheap it'd blow your mind the difference.
[admin mode] martian packets... It seems that I was getting hit by a bunch of them, and that's what was overloading the network subsystem on my reverse proxy. Once I saw the log messages I added some configuration to drop such packets and now we're back up.
Happy that every time I find a new little thing, my overall configuration gets a little more robust.

[admin mode] Thinking we might be under ddos attack?
Getting hammered so hard by something outside that I can't even ping the server (but it isn't crashing), so for now I've taken some evasive action, we'll see if that helps.

[admin mode] completed some maintenance tasks on the database(hence the inaccessibility today), it shrank the database a shocking amount so I'd call that a win. Should improve performance, I've still got more to do later but it's fine for now.
