Some of the comments on that post are hilarious. “This makes it look like America is fascist.” Yeah, I wonder why.

Can those people have normal relationships with other human beings and be normal for just 1 second?

Not if they’re libs

You’re just a filthy tankie! Look at how good our US subway is!

I completely agree. I am absolutely sick of Ukraine and that clown Zelenskiy at this point. I wish they’d just accept the fact that the fascists are going to lose again and stop talking about it.

That’s not true, they don’t only have CIA talking points. Obviously, they’re not loyal to any specific US intelligence agency, they have talking points for all of them.

Well, they won’t be as powerful as a Xeon system. That is why I have my one intel server. Most of the services I run (I run 26 services), can run on low-power hardware easily (things like Invidious, Homeassistant, Cockpit, Node Red, Jellyfin, etc.). For these, I have SBCs. I currently run 9 Raspberry Pi 4s (8 as webservers, one as a recursive DNS server with Pi-Hole in front of it), 2 Pine H64s (one as my reverse proxy that provides access to the rest of my servers and one as my TV box running Kodi), and a RockPro64 handling more intensive stuff like the Matrix homeserver. My Intel machine is an old Mac Mini which I’ve upgraded the storage (500GB HDD to 1TB SSD) and RAM (4GB to 16GB) on and installed Debian. On that, I run things that require either a lot of power or a lot of storage. For example, my Mac Mini hosts Gitea, Minio (open source Amazon S3 clone), Code Server (Online IDE), Nextcloud, Onlyoffice, and a Minecraft server.

SBCs are nice because they are cheap and very low power. All my servers connect to a single <$100 UPS and that lasts over an hour. Of course, the downside is that if you have a single service that needs a lot of compute power, you’ll need to use a separate server for that, which is what my Mac Mini is for.

Edit: By the way, I’ve seen you on Matrix. My username on there is Heisenbug.

There is also ARM. Nearly all my servers use ARM chips. I only have one Intel server and it’s not even a new chip (3rd gen i7).

Yeah, it is often slower than Discord. The reason for this is that it’s decentralized and encrypted. It’s slow because it’s secure. I’d rather lose a few minutes of time than have the US government spy on me.

Are anglos just permanently brainwashed or what?

Not necessarily permanent, but very, very hard to get rid of. It is ingrained from birth, and schools try their best to condition you not to question anything. I’m lucky enough to have noticed and resisted the conditioning, but had to pay the price of being extremely stressed in school, which led to burnout and a low GPA, which has repercussions in the future.

They will try as hard as they can to indoctrinate you, and if they can’t, they make sure to make your life as difficult as possible.

Then, there’s the fact that they teach everyone that people who don’t agree with the propaganda are evil fascists who want to destroy freedom and democracy, which means that if you reject the propaganda, you get vilified for it. Therefore, the more social a person is, the less likely they will be to reject the propaganda, and a lot of them will be in denial of the truth because they don’t want to lose relationships over it.

It’s truly an evil, despicable system that needs to be abolished.
