Hasnt the US lowered their emissions by displacing coal?

That sounds like Keynesian ideology, which means investing in infrastructure. Which is not what we spent all that debt on.

Though the supreme court still surely exists does it not?

A sovereignty crisis is a perfect reason to bypass provincial laws and push pipelines through to Europe to displace Russian energy.

The government took on debt the same as households, using low interest rates to lever themselves up. Now that rates are rising due to aging demographics we are forced to look at our debt burden.

This is why what Trudeau Sr did was stupid, and why what Trudeau Jr did was stupid, all that spending is future austerity. The only way its not is if you debase the currency further using QE, and you shift those bonds to the FX market via a depreciated currency, which ends up in even higher interest rates.

Kuwait and Lebanon have experience helping this group, maybe we can ask them for advice.

Trump will one day be gone, meanwhile China will continue to gulag their citizens.

I'd search ebay for 9500t and get a NUC, its a 6 core processor and can be bought pretty cheaply.

They can buy all our houses, but I draw the line at them building our ships!

Is there some business in Canada that hasn't been regulated into an oligopoly?

The government in the 90s wasn't saying housing prices couldnt fall, which is the big difference I see. Now we have embraced the house of cards ponzi scheme built on cheap debt, we may as well start a Bitcoin reserve next.

 

I use a headless server connected to nothing but an ethernet cable in my basement, and I'd prefer to allow the thing to boot by itself and start up without me needing to unlock the disk encryption every single time I do an update or power back on. Its a Dell 9500t NUC that I'm using it as a server and am wondering whether its possible to encrypt everything still.

I do generally use docker containers, so could I potentially encrypt just the containers themselves, assuming I'm worried about a smash and grab rather than someone keeping the machine powered up and reading my ram?
