Of course. Look at the “network state” concept that the alt right tech bros love.

Tiny nation states ruled by the elites, where laws and rights are set not by a wide ranging view of human rights, but by those in power. One of your only rights is the ability to leave. To where? Who knows, and surely nit with all your valuables going with you. No voting, not basic dignity, nothing else if the techo kings dont want to provide it. Corpo kings, contract as the only law.

The end state of the above and fascism is the same. A ruling class that sets the rules, and a citizenry that has to abide by them, or else.

Is it literal fascism? Who knows. Are you under the boot of a privileged class, at the full mercy of their whims just like monarchy or fascism? Yes indeed.

Looking at the trees brings most of the relief, so I expect even those are just as calming as long as you don’t touch them and don’t know what they are.

They mention his tariffs, but it’s also a bigger issue that has to do with the laws of physics hitting economics.

Wired, wireless. A flared base is the actual key.

Trees are also essential for insects, bird and animal life in cities. They are also psychologically calming for people as well.

Holy fuck. Red truck, pale fuck, blue truck. Red, white and blue.

The lift here is that you setup the end users client. If they aren’t local, buy one and ship it. Since it will be on your always on tailscale vpn, you can then interact with it remotely if needed.

Android tvs can be had for $35, Raspi 5 are around the same range, with apple tvs about $130. Have people pony up the cash and mail one of what they want out to them.

That may be too much to ask if you share to a lot of casual friends/family, but its been a successful answer for me.

Jellyfin takes more work, but can be a “simple” end user experience if you set it up for them.

Use a reverse proxy to get a letsenceypt cert for your jellyfin server. SWAG, Caddy, lots of options. Then setup a free tailscale account and add your jellyfin server to your tailnet. Install the jellyfin and tailscale apps on the user android tv/apple tv/computer, then enroll the devices in your tailnet.

They will have always on, ssl secured, vpn protected media sharing for free.

They sold to private equity a couple years back. The enshittification started that day.

Glaciers take millions of years to deposit boulders across the land.

Humans: “we can do better.”

EVs have drastically reduced maintenance compared to most cars. It’s fully possible they wont have to pay Tesla anymore money, especially if they opt for home charging or use non Tesla charging stations.

Ive been using pop-os for my desktop for years. Ive had no update headaches, roll back issues, or anything else that would compel me to swap distros for one that made these things better.

So to answer your question:

None of the above are compelling features that justify the work to switch off an already very stable distro.

If you’re going to do something wrong, do it wrong right.

We have these. They are called funiculars

Use the tmux resurrect plugin. It will restore your tmux session to its previous state after a restart, including programs if you like.

You can put off doing things “correctly™” even longer.

Your body would have to be entirely or largely immune to the effects of the gravity power to not be crushed by it in general. You certainly wouldn’t be able to fly, the basic “wish,” if your body was hammered by G forces every time you lifted off.

Since you need some level of immunity, just applying “gravity” to your body then applying your body to other things would excert that force on them.

Finding out all of the above is part of the fun.

With full, discrete control of gravity, even if it’s just localized to your body, you would become the deadliest person on earth. You would be invulnerable to physical impact. Your touch could crush any object. You would be literally unstoppable.

If the power is wider ranging? Well now. Youre a magneto level threat, or more if you want to get into the “can make blackholes” side of things.

The gravity manipulation is much better if they are handing out options.

That she is mega wealthy, which provides the support for all her endeavors, but thinks shes successful because of personal effort.

This is what every wealthy person says to pretend their life is based on merit instead of a rotting system of exploitation.

6 x 6 mothefuckers. Y’all tell me that didn’t immediately form “36” in your brain.
