Yeah, that's straight up devil horns. The original meaning was to ward off the devil, but she doesn't strike me as traditionalist Christian. Very strong "what the fuck is this" vibes. I'm confused.

This looks super interesting! I'm stoked to give it a shot.

You can indeed carry a gun in a national park. The law was changed in 2013.

Edit: I am wrong. It was 2010.

I have Tidal. It costs the same as Spotify but pays artists more and actively promotes up and coming musicians. Also they aren't part of the military industrial complex, so that's cool.

Check out startplaying.games. There is usually a cheap or free game going on if your time frame is flexible.

I also switched to Tidal after learning about Spotify's dystopian future war AI powered killer robot plans. It's also bullshit how little they pay artists.

I wish Tidal had podcasts, but I'm happy enough with AntennaPod.

Hahahaha that is great! I didn't see that until now. It's a gas tank for the snowmobiles. And before you think I'm a fancy boy, they're over a decade old and the only way to get to and from our house in the winter.

My girlfriend is be very interested in putting Blink (Amazon) cameras up around our property. I am not interested in paying Amazon to keep our security footage.

What I'd like to do is have motion activated internet connected cameras around the property that somehow send footage to a server (I don't know if that's the correct term, I'm kind of an idiot) that I keep on the property.

So I have three questions:

  1. is this the right forum to be asking about self hosting security footage?
  2. does anyone here have experience doing this and would they be willing to send some pointers my way?
  3. is this a feasible DIY project or am I better served paying for a service?

I've done a little digging into self hosting and it's not cheap, but I think it will be cheaper than paying a subscription. And safer too, which is rad.

Thank you all!

Once I started using alarms and timers my life got much better. I rely heavily on timers to convince myself to do chores. 20 minutes of cleaning or organizing my stuff is better then 0 minutes. And 20 minutes is digestable. And also for lazy fun stuff. I can set a 1 hour timer for video games or do a hobby or whatever and the time cut off keeps me focused.

Lt. Colonel David Grossman is not the worst thing to happen to american policing but he's sure not helping anything.

I'm really enjoying Trine 4 (the sale got me). I'm what the kids call a "casual", but I'm really enjoying the puzzles and the combat. It's also a really pretty game.

I bought a ninja blender and I was so proud of myself. And honestly it's a great blender. But then I tried my mom's Vitamix and holy shit it's in a different league. Like the difference between JV basketball and the NBA.

I just bought the 256GB Deck at the beginning of this month and it arrived on the 10th for $529. On the 13th they announced the OLED Deck and dropped the price of the 256GB Deck to $399.

I wrote to Steam customer service and asked if I could return the deck and purchase the OLED model for $30 more and they wrote back with two options:

  1. return the deck, get a refund, and then buy the OLED model

  2. keep the deck I own and get $130 in my Steam Wallet.

I'm not sure which option to choose. On the one hand, $130 is a nice chunk of change to buy some games. On the other hand, a brand new, bigger, and nicer deck is worth waiting a couple weeks and $30.

Any advice?
