Its the same as dying. If you're that blase about dying then yea- makes no difference.

The problem with the clone is that the original "you" died in the transporter. Are you assuming your conscious transfers?

I've used mailbox.org for the last few years. They are a privacy-focused provider out of Germany. They aren't restrictive on the app you use, like proton, and offer an integrated PGP-signing solution.

I think I'm overly sensitive because my power is very expensive and my home is getting pretty warm right now!

Is there a particular genre? I dont pay attention to most game stories. Some of these suggestions have an online mode but ive only played single player.

age of empires 4 (1v1 against ai), 7days to die, vampire survivors, valheim.

That's so much electricity though! That equipment is typically so cheap bc the power draw is nuts. I agree the pi isnt the right move but why burn up so much power when they won't be using practically any of it, to learn?

I'd suggest a small, used x86-64 mini-pc, throw in 16gb of ram and a HDD. If you dont pay for electricity, like in a dorm, then the old server-grade stuff is the way to go. Plus it will keep you very toasty in the winter.

We saw evidence during the BLM protests that violence was being started by police by both beating on peaceful protesters and using agent-provocateurs. The most famous example was the hooded man wearing police issued boots, who wasnt participating in the protest, knocking out the windows of a Target.

My point is that if violence and property destruction discredit a protest for you then the police have already won. They can turn any protest into violence and destruction if not by outright attacking peaceful protests, then by using an agent-provocateur.

The mini PC is your best bet. I only have ARM SBCs but they have a lot of limitations. If I needed something new it would likely be a used mini PC. I dont have any suggestions unfortunately. I saw something posted a couple weeks ago that was some university surplus- $30 used mini PC's, including the case- which will run circles around any ARM SBC. I think shipping was another $30 but still a great deal. Find something like that.

You'd be better off with something that has an EMMC slot (or ideally SATA connection). Running the OS off of an SD card is painfully slow. I've also found USB storage to be way more reliable than SD cards, in general. I used an external 4-bay drive connected via usb3 for years and never had issues. Burned through many SD cards over the same period.

No, not really. My VFT catches gnats but I don't think it would effectively reduce them overall.
