  • Imagine less off a proper BOD and more of a 3D Printable holder for 3.5 inch drives and no actual connections.

    I was considering a mini ITX PC with just an external SAS to Sata PCI card. But at the rate of just building that I might end up just building a better tiny nas box with maybe a jonsbo case like the N3




  • Literally had a show about it

    Which was quote meta considering he literally had a show about it.

    Man I wonder what Tim Allen’s been up to. I wonder if he did another show literally about performing masculinity where he literally has a show about performing masculinity in the show.

    Man that’d be wild.

    To me, Art is a catalyst for discussion, reflection, and expression.

    So yes, I view internet trolling as a form of art. Maybe not capital A Art, but is it not the art of a sub culture? A way to catalyze discussion, debate, expression? A well crafted message that in often a hundred words or less that sparks endless debates and reactions?

    Is the art the catalyst or the consequences?

    Is the art the banana or my feelings about it?

    To me I think its all art.



  • Its probably a parent company situation.

    Lots of corpo structures are just large parent companies that actually just own a bunch of smaller companies so that the parent company gets the profits while the smaller companies make the risky products and can be bankrupted at any minute.

    The company I work for does that. We just bought a couple companies that were competitors in a risky but profitable market. The full idea is that if one company gets sued to oblivion, we let that company die, move all the employees and customers to the backup company, and call it a day.

    Capitalism baby!






  • I mean if someone can conceive it then yes.

    Personally I do think there will always be a “class” of some sort since even among career and financial equals I still view colleagues as a different class of human.

    Like I’m a camp in the woods kinda human where my coworker is a take his car to a race track kinda human.

    But that’s never the class that is being discussed.

    A classless society is specifically one where someone doesn’t have power over you by some financial measure. A true meritocracy as there is no financial incentive to be in those roles since it is also a moneyless society.

    Utopian? Maybe. Conceivable? Yeah I can conceive what that would be like and I want to strive for it.

    Maybe its not important if its possible and its just important that there are people willing to work towards it or implement something like it in their own controllable way.
