Enough of your woke agenda. Keep politics out of science.

Yes and no. I get the point and do actually agree whole heartedly but I think it obscures the reality that we’ve been observing solar systems as they existed millions of years ago.

There’s nothing lighthearted about it. I regret reading it.

Thanks for reminding me. Now, how do I scrub my brain?

Isn’t the whole point of woodframe construction to use wood?

Europeans still have insulation in the wall cavity.

Goodness gracious your responses to these Russian trolls are entertaining, keep it up!

Fuck off, Russian bot

Wait…the smallest size in US is larger than the largest size in Oz? That aligns perfectly with my world view for once.

And you couldn’t ask them to take it away for some reason?

Yeah…that was the end times.

When is “back then” for you?

I played counter-strike during the beta days and team fortress when it was “classic” not “2”

I definitely had a handful of favourite servers (1-2 favourites, 2-3 backups) that I would play on and knew the regulars like an old country pub.

Now things are set up so that it’s almost impossible to develop relationships with random folks online. Not just matchmaking but also more closed-off (hard to discover) groups on Discord etc…

CS1.6 and TFC was the golden age of online gaming and it’s been downhill since then. Literally nothing has been improved upon and the community has become immeasurably more toxic.

We’ve lost IRC and dedicated servers and replaced it with matchmaking and Discord. Both objectively worse.

I think your experiences are clouding your judgement. Just because you grew up then doesn’t mean you have knowledge of everyone who grew up then, nor on everyone growing up now.

I am not much younger than you and I distinctly recall parents and police responding to several incidents. But same deal, just because i saw it doesn’t make it universally true.

Clearly you’re biased by your own experience. That’s just unfortunate, most people are not murderers.

You were in a kid in the 70s/80s and now? Curious.

Where are you getting your information?

You’ve been watching too many movies

So can Russia

I have a pi4 and been very happy with the dimensions and low power usage. What could I get for the same price and power use?

Genuine question. Im looking at a pi5 right now.

Care to elaborate? What’s wrong with “hosting” on a rpi?

Thanks for the tip!
