I got a media failed to load error at first and thought that was the joke

At least most of us don't need to worry about time dilation caused by relatively yet. Have fun with that, space faring developers.

I'm on a similar journey and have started self-hosting as many services as I can. I've got Jellyfin (open source Plex alternative), a WebDAV server to replace google drive, a Valheim server, and a git server to host the code. I'm doing this with kubernetes on an old mini PC I picked up for 50 bucks on eBay. I plan to put more mini PCs in my friends' and family's homes to build a cloud for us with backups of everything stored in multiple locations. It'd be cool to pass it down to the next generation and have our family memories preserved in a medium we own completely.

I'm pretty sure I live in a city between you and Dearborn but I don't want to say the names and dox us. I just thought it was fun to piece together with the few clues and my familiarity with the area

I wonder if you could ssh into it. My charging port broke on my last phone and was able to pull all my files off of it via ssh

I love the attention to detail in the armor. It looks straight from 15th century Germany (well, the area eventually known as Germany)

I'm a strange man and I'd rather be with the bear too

I'm pretty sure a body armor costs less than a new car

The George Floyd protests were outliers and the bigger picture shows that Tennessee is one of the most violent states in the country: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_and_territories_by_violent_crime_rate.

Even if you look at homicides per county, violence in TN is pretty widespread: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_and_territories_by_intentional_homicide_rate

Granted, Washington state's homicides look fairly evenly distributed there but the worst areas are outside of Seattle. Also, based on your description of TN I'd expect it to look like Illinois where most homicides occurs in specific areas of Chicago

Where did you see that it was a bolt action rifle? I couldn't find any real details on the weapons used. I'm looking for sensible gun policies to advocate for in the US and a mass shooting with a bolt action refutes my "limit the rate of fire" idea.

Most of Battlefield Earth is shot diagonally and no one has complained about that fine film
