These “mountable islands” might be good in theory but it looks like the city did absolutely nothing to make them easily visible. I’ve seen similar things around my own city and its almost as if the traffic engineers want to cause vehicle damage and dangerous maneuvers as you often can’t see these obstacles until you’re about to crash into them.

Title of your sex tape.

Its a primary offense in Oregon too.

In Florida its actually a misdemeanor to cover the plate with anything. A guy was recently arrested after being pulled over for this in a rental car that had a license plate frame partially obscuring the first ‘S’ in “Sunshine State.”

Thats because he has like 14 kids with numerous women and doesn’t actually parent them.

And in a rigidly defined digital medium no less!

I’d definitely skip this in favor of something consumer-grade. You can find used Dell Optiplexes all over the place cheap and stick a large drive inside/outside of it and use it for a couple of years.

A big old server is just going to drain your wallet on both power and parts with equal or worse performance and a lot more complexity for what 99% of home users will use it for.

It sounds like your main goal is probably a media server and an Optiplex will give you an i5 or i7 with QuickSync which works excellent for processing video. RAID isnt really necessary here because you can just download more Linux ISOs if these one are lost, though it can be great later if you buy a bunch more drives and expand into other areas where data is less replaceable.

Can’t say on access behind CG-NAT, as I haven’t ever dealt with it, but Tailscale might work as a free third-party option though that’s just a guess.

How about this tidbit from the article you linked in the OP? I’m guessing you didn’t actually read any of it past the headline because it certainly doesn’t say what you seem to think it does. What an intellectually lazy thing to do.

In 2018, the World Health Organization recognized gaming disorder as a mental health condition that intrudes detrimentally into an addicted gamer’s sleep, work, education and ability to foster and maintain relationships in real life, while also impacting memory, attention span and stress management.

SOCIAL MEDIA

Social media addiction hasn’t been officially recognized, Falcione said, “but it’s pretty clear – at least within the literature – that it seems to be transposable to the extent that all the criteria for gaming disorder also apply to a social media or smartphone addiction.”

There are three main criteria, she explained. The first is that the person feels a need to use that media more and more, which can build a tolerance similar to that experienced by drug addicts. Second, she continues, “there’s a salience that it becomes the most prominent thing in your life — it’s what you think about the most, it’s what you want to do the most, and even if you’re not on your phone, you’re thinking about it, craving it and choosing it over other activities that may need your attention.” The third criteria is that its use creates internal conflict or turmoil as it interferes with relationships or obligations to work or school.

“For teens and college students, when you see those grades drop, that’s a big signal that the media use is actually becoming detrimental,” Falcione said.

You mean like OP, who’s clearly having a temper tantrum calling people “fucking idiots” and telling them they need to “leave” if they don’t agree with them, all the while demanding sources from everyone while providing none of their own other than a single editorial written by a college student?

Have you cited a single thing anywhere in this entire post?

What a shitty woman this is. Looking at the map shows that this is a single road maybe 100 yards long with multiple alternative roads all around and yet she wants to act like a child over what might be a whole minute long detour if it were closed.
