What sketchy ass VPN’s have you been using?

Get something from a well known provider like Proton, iVPN, or Mullvad.

You are playing it on hardware that’s 10 years newer than the game was designed for. That mod even lists SSD as the primary reason for the advancement, with it not making much difference running on an HDD.

Sounds like a great mod for today’s equipment though.

That was my take as well. Anyone with large real estate or other investment portfolios is treading water while those who don’t are sinking without directly realizing why.

I think this might be the right solution for OP, especially since they don’t seem to have had the “experience” I’m sure many of us have had with this “simple” operation. If you are going to do it, them it should be done using a live OS and a full offline system backup, otherwise its very easy to lose a lot of data this way.

However, symlinks like that can make things confusing really quickly. I would encourage anyone using them in this way to establish some easily checked rules and abide by them. For example, maybe you only use symlinks like this in a specific folder such as /home/expanded. You can still have multiple links there like /home/expanded/on5TBdrive or /home/expanded/onPrimarySSD, but it makes it easier to remember, find, and check those locations later.

When you need to know exactly where something is stored, verify a backup, or find data without the symlink, then you will appreciate a set of rules that helps you.

Let’s fucking go.

Edit: for that matter, “LFG, LFG!” is a grammatically correct acronym sentence.

I meant that there’s no need to fool the ai, the system is fundamentally flawed from the start.

Why? Just take a picture of your neighbor.

You can do a pretty decent job with a ziplock and a water bath until you can afford one.

Put the food in the ziplock and submerge it in a tank of water up to the top of the bag while its still open. Then seal the bag while the lower part is held under water. Helpful to have an extra set of hands if you have someone available to seal while you hold the lower part under water.

Obviously not as good, but it does help.

Also, has no one heard of a freezer?

If you want to get fancy, vacuum pack it. I’ll admit, I cannot stand even the slightest freezer burn. It makes me gag immediately. Vacuum packing basically eliminates that.

Death is not required.

ZFS is fantastic and it can indeed restore files that have been encrypted as long as you have an earlier snapshot.

However, it would not have helped in this scenario. In fact, it might have actually made recovery efforts much more difficult.

It could have helped by automatically sending incremental snapshots to a secondary drive, which you could then have restored the original drive from. However, this would have required the foresight to set that up in the first place. This process also would not have been quick; you would need to copy all of the data back just like any other complete drive restoration.

I mean yes, please vote people.

However the supreme court is stacked because Bitch McConnell is a piece of shit.

Uhm… Yes. Like a lot.

Plus Biden attempted to block any more aid for Israel and the Republicans rammed it through anyway.

Trump has 91 felony allegations across 4 different state and federal cases against him right now. Many of which are directly related to him trying to overthrow our democracy.

Burn him to the ground; I don’t care about his legacy as a president. He was a shitty one anyway and was never actually elected by popular vote.

I would be appalled if he was pardoned, and I’m already rather annoyed at the current state of the prosecution taking this long.

And religion + racism + fear of the unknown + social echo chambers can all be exploited. Remember that MTG floated a few years ago that space lasers caused California forest fires. Never mind the power requirements and ridiculousness that would require.

I think the woman is dangerous as hell, but I don’t think she’s stupid. I think she uses dumb ideas to mobilize an ignorant base.

No, you don’t. You have to pay a penalty if you pull out earnings early. You can take the money you put in out at any time without penalty.

You are thinking of a traditional IRA, not a Roth IRA.

You can pull money out of your Roth IRA at literally any point. You already paid the taxes on it.

You cannot pull more out than you put in though. If you have and properly use a Roth IRA throughout your whole life, you can live for many many years without ever breaching that cap if you wanted to retire a little earlier. You’re just reducing your potential total.

You need 0° to chill properly though.

Because Tesla was fixing significant safety issues without reporting it to the NHTSA in a way that they could track the problems and source of the issue. The two of them got into a pissing match, and the result is that now all OTA’s are recalls. After this, the media realized that “recall” generates more views than “OTA”, and here we are.
