For a while now I've been using either haproxy or nginx depending on my needs. I've hit instances with both where the functionality I want is in the paid version.

Clubbed British Captain James Cook right in his head, then stabbed him in the chest with a dagger traded from his own supply, in an attempt to stop Cook from kidnapping the islands chief.

ftfy, not sure why one would want to frame it like this twitter user did, as some sort of uprising against an established and prolific oppressor. Those people did not let it escalate to anywhere near that.

Neat! My Dean is a Korean mid 2000s ML. It's far from heavy but I never noticed the weight until I picked it up seconds after putting a Les Paul down.

Maybe they were using lighter woods, a hollower body or maybe basses are just better weapons ;D

I skip the gym on days where I stand and play one for an hour or more.

Almost threw my dean across the room the first time I picked it up after playing a Les Paul.

Have you looked for providers that offer ETRN? Seems like that might fit your use case well.

I've hosted my own email for over a decade with very few issues. It's low ram and CPU usage so a very cheap VM (or a pair in different locations if you wanna be leet) can be a viable way to avoid the ISP related issues people have trying to host it at home. If you really want it all ending up at home you can do ETRN as mentioned and while TCP/25 is often blocked at home, the submission port (TCP/587) rarely is.

I don't watch a TON of these things, but I do enjoy them from time to time. The two bits I enjoy the most are vicarious rediscovery of something I enjoy, and getting a very different point of view on the same thing.

Generally when I watch these it's stuff like "Classically trained musician listens to Megadeth for the first time". I get reminded of some bits that I've grown accustomed to, and sometimes get a whole new perspective on something I've been enjoying for years.

I will say, I don't get "Youtuber reacts to other youtubers reaction to some twitch streamer breakdancing" or "Gymrat listens to ABBA for the first time".

I fell asleep during "A new hope" 3 times, and just stopped once out of boredom before I was finally able to make it through the whole movie. 100% feel you here. I respect it for what it is, and enjoy a lot of the stuff that has come after it, but man do I feel the original was just LIMP.

FWIW I'm using the downvote button as a "You didn't explain", "That's a band not a movie", "That's a show not a movie", "That's a genre of animation, not a movie" button ;p I'm definitely clicking it far more often that I typically do =p

It's wild how many people can write but not read.

Thanks!

I'm with you on not expecting to see change =/

As much as I want to enjoy posts like this one, I always ask myself this and it takes the joy out of it every time. It's just a nice fantasy that reminds me of the "Nobody in this room know I ..." meme.

It's always "MAGAs are losing their minds over ...", but never any explanation or sourcing.

 

In the last 15 seconds of the song I've linked to there's a guitar solo with a super cheesy early 80s tone that I love.

I'm curious what's typical for this sort of sound. I've just recently started trying to take more active/conscious control of tone so my ear for this stuff is weak. I think I hear some flanger, light to mid gain, and a lot of delay, but that's about all I got.
