You ever read internet privacy recommendations and think, it'd probably be easier to pull a Lex Luthor, steal a nuke and launch it at Google than try to understand and implement all this stuff? 🤣

When you backup a Start9 server, is it supposed to backup your node's copy of the blockchain? The internal drive is 932 GB used but the backup drive is only 2 GB used.

🤣 Query: "Please incorporate American professional wrestler slang to summarize this wikipedia article " Response: "Back in 1956, the Hungarian people were straight-up jobbers under the Soviet heel regime, getting squashed by communist control after World War II. But brother, they decided to cut a promo against that oppression, starting with student demonstrations in Budapest that turned into a full-blown revolution – think of it as a Royal Rumble where the underdogs flipped the script! The faces of Hungary, fed up with the Iron Curtain's dirty tactics like forced collectivization and secret police cheap shots, rose up on October 23. They toppled Stalin's statue like it was a jabroni in a squash match, demanded reforms, and even got Imre Nagy to turn face as the new Prime Minister. For a hot minute, it looked like a clean pin: Soviet troops pulled out, political prisoners were freed, and Hungary declared neutrality, going rogue from the Warsaw Pact stable. But oh no, the Kremlin heels weren't having it – they called for a heel turn and invaded on November 4 with overwhelming force, like a monster heel dominating a battle royal. Despite the Hungarian workers' councils and freedom fighters putting up a valiant babyface comeback, the Soviets crushed the uprising in a bloody no-holds-barred affair, leading to thousands of casualties and a mass exodus of refugees. Nagy got executed later, solidifying the Soviet Union's grip in a kayfabe that lasted until the Cold War's grand finale. In the end, this revolution was a game-changer, exposing the cracks in the communist empire and inspiring future smackdowns against tyranny worldwide. What a slobberknocker of history, dude!"

I bet one of the perks of being the wife of a drummer is never having to pay extra for pre-crushed pecans and peanuts. Just fill the ziploc bag and tell him to bring his sticks to the kitchen.

Hard to spook a mfer about climate change when the only seasons they've known for six decades are heat wave, cold snap and Noah's flood.

GnR's 'Sweet Child o' Mine' is the same age today as Vaughn Monroe's 'Riders In The Sky' was in 1987 😱

I'm not asking anyone to shed a tear for a billionaire pedophile or whatever Epstein was, but Americans need to look at the state of our prison system from a self-preservation perspective if nothing else. You live in a nation with so many laws on the books that the only reason you or someone you love isn't looking at prison time is because you've been fortunate enough to not piss off the wrong government employee... yet.

Remember 'time-shifting' tech? Back in the 90s and 00s, you could start watching a show or game from the very beginning while the DVR was still recording the live broadcast. Now you get a tweet or a 90-second warning that a podcast is going live and if you can't put your whole life on hold for the next two hours, come back tomorrow and maybe the file-processing pixies will have uploaded the recording. 😮‍💨
