  • After searching, I am now aware of the film “Freaks”, from 1932. I’ll have to take a watch

    I always knew it from “South Park”, assumed it was a reference to something else, and never inquired more until now

    That being said; maybe just adding a disclaimer to check out the movie “Freaks” would be cool (for those who aren’t aware of the origins). But I wouldn’t always choose to use the “Original Movie Gif”, because there’s so many great variations

    A disclaimer would be cool to encourage people to watch the original (just for ‘learning purposes’ at some point), but I wouldn’t knock someone for not disclaiming it. I would probably just reply to them that “the original movie from where that came from is really worth watching”

    Unless I watch it and the movie ends up being hot garbage… then I won’t disclaim nor comment about it. Only time will tell, what my feelings will be after I give it a watch. Thank you though for the insight, cause I’m now excited to watch this old, crazy-seeming film. It looks good

    I work weekends, so it’s hard for me to attend weekday stuff. But I took off of work on a Saturday to protest, because we need people out there. So I say do it on the weekdays too, and have people call-in to work to go

    Peaceful disruption by having mass call-ins on protest days; because it matters and it makes the protests harder to ignore when people aren’t going into work every time a protest happens. Keep it happening, and keep the pressure up. I can’t afford a vacation anyway, so I’ll save my PTO to get out there and call-in to work whenever

    My time off is my time off, don’t matter why. I’m calling-in because it’s none of their business. It’s just a “sick day” cause I’m fucking sick (of the atrocities being normalized and the utter disintelligence spreading like wildfire)

    Smaller protests are fine, cause people can’t afford to be at every single one. But everyone can afford to be at as many as possible. Than you have a constant force that’s more likely to crest


  • Well, you just saved me a bunch of time trying to figure out how to auto-update my humble little server. Granted, I only have Plex and Samba Share right now, but I like the principle. Hell, an update once blanked my smb config file for whatever reason

    Now auto-backups are another thing; because I would like to use a .tar file, but then it leads me down a rabbit hole because I don’t know how to repair Grub if needed for a restore, or what Grub really even is vs Bios… I’ve just been learning as I go

    I’m a few weeks away from getting a couple parts for an upgrade, and then it’ll be some fun. I want to redo it from scratch and maybe set up proxmox and change my file system to zfs, then start looking at docker, figure out Jellyfin and look at some ARR stuff… maybe tailscale or headscale. Idk, it’s just fun cause it’s a hobby. I just haven’t had the storage or ram really, but soon
