Yea and why cryptocurrency isn’t money with its exchange rate being determined by how much fiat currencies are entering and exiting.

OK, two cryptocurrencies as legal tender. My point still stands. If you give people a choice between crypto and fiat they will use fiat, even if it’s a foreign currency like the Dollar in El Salvador.

The solution for El Salvador or any other country using a foreign currency isn’t to go with another foreign “currency” like Bitcoin but building their own currency.

El Salvador had their own currency until they gave it up because their leader back then was a US Puppet.

Sole legal tender.

Edit: I dare them to pay all Government employees in Bitcoin, demand taxes be paid in Bitcoin. It would be a funny experiment if it weren’t for mass unemployment and deaths that arise out of a recession.

It would be funny trade wise too. No other country is going to accept Bitcoin as payment for real goods and services. So, the country will have to convert Bitcoin to USD at market price (which can swing wildly) and also hope the market has enough liquidity to handle it.

money has to be backed by the state so if bitcoiners really want bitcoin to be used in everyday transactions, i would suggest running for President and replacing U.S. Dollar with Bitcoin for tax payments/legal tender.

how will the state obtain Bitcoins? by building massive resource wasting mining farms which itll have to issue bitcoin bonds to build, making the state subservient to the private bond markets and interest rate it demands, Greek style.

there is massive plague and the economy has collapsed? what will the state do? cant give people money or increase healthcare spending because the capacity of the state to mobilize resources is now limited by what the private sector is willing to give it or how much it can mine. oops mass death.

bitcoiners have to be dumbest creatures alive. these people can’t imagine a pro-Worker Government so they have to come up with convoluted ways to tie the hands of the state so it cant give capitalists free money.

how about a desktop cpu tower cooler? even though laptop cpus are low power, passive cooling is pretty difficult.

another alternative for mounting would be to 3D print a bracket but that would require a printer, basic cad skills and a heat resistant filament like polycarbonate.

look at how much metal there is on these fanless mini pcs which use low power laptop cpus

It’s not open source I think but perplexity.ai is pretty good.

I use wildcard tls certs and wildcard dns records for my domains. this ensures that no service can be easily accessed unless you have full domain name. For example If you have plex and deluge then you have to set dns records to plex.abc.xyz and dns.abc.xyz. This can be seen by anyone else trying to find vulnerabilities. But if you have wildcard certs/dns, all anyone can see from outside is *.abc.xyz, only the reverse proxy (eg nginx) knows the domain.

Don’t forward any ports unless you have to. Don’t run any service on 0.0.0.0 unless you have to. Incoming ports on the internet can be super dangerous.

A safe way to do self hosting is with WireGuard, just setup a wireguard container on the server then you can access all the services anywhere when connected from a client without exposing any tcp ports.

For connections why not try traceroute? mtr traceroute

To see things within a packet you can use WireShark.

get a mini pc or xiaomi tv box/firestick etc and use that with the tv. Android included with the TV fucking sucks.

Because liberal ‘reforms’ resulted in actually increased standard of living in China for everyone while in India only top 10% benefited. There is a reason why China is near first world in Global Hunger Index while India is near the bottom.

I didn’t say neither India nor China is ‘fair’ or ‘exploitative’ in the first comment. The conditions are completely different. What are you talking about?

“We see an extraordinary execution (in China). It’s called 9-9-6 culture - 9 am to 9 pm, six days a week. And you see that progress. We cannot have the ambition of being a 10-20 trillion dollar economy and still expect that life should be chill,”

yeah and everyone’s tired of it there and moving away from it. and what does he think Indian workers in the private sector do? they don’t get Saturdays off, they are always forced to work overtime, its why everyone in India wants a public sector job in the first place.

India’s terrible economic situation isn’t because people aren’t working hard enough but because there is no work in the first place (especially for college-educated people). China managed to build productive forces by forcing capitalists to do what the state wants whereas Indian state is controlled by capitalists directly.

the low productivity is a failure of capitalism, not workers.

I read about his business and its possibly the least productive shit imaginable. Typical rent seeking middleman.

wish this mentioned hypothetical revenue ‘lost’ due to piracy.

hmm i havent used truenas scale, but gluetun is just a program to help users connect to any vpn without downloading config files as pia supports wireguard, gluetun will use it by default.

i suggest against using openvpn, its really not very good for performance because its single threaded.

wireguard is the new protocol though wdym?

you can run wireguard on opnsense itself through a plugin.

why not wireguard?

Not much ig, maybe use it as a network switch?
