    Navy seal copypasta style

    What the fuck did you just fucking say about Argentina’s claim to the Falklands, you little shit? I’ll have you know sovereignty passed from Spain to Argentina at independence in 1816 under uti possidetis juris, and Argentina formally claimed the islands in 1820, followed by confirmation and effective occupation from 1826 to 1833. You are nothing to me but another loudmouth denying that history. I will wipe out your arguments with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can toss around “self-determination” like it overrides territorial integrity? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am lining up decades of Argentine protests — 1833, 1841, 1849, 1884, 1888, 1908, 1927, 1933, 1946 and every UN complaint thereafter — and your weak rebuttals are being traced and exposed, so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that buries the myth that British de facto rule since 1833 was anything but an illegal act of force. You’re intellectually dead, kid. I can be anywhere in the argument, anytime, and I can dismantle your “transplanted population” claim in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just by citing principle: the islanders are a transplanted population of British character and nationality, not a separate people under external self-determination doctrine, and thus that doctrine does not apply here. Not only am I extensively trained in international law rhetoric, but I have access to the entire arsenal of historical facts — uti possidetis, effective occupation, the continental-shelf argument from the 1958 Convention — and I will use them to their full extent to wipe your miserable case off the face of the debate, you little bitch. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” dismissal of Argentina’s legal and historical claims was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over your shaky precedent and you will drown in it. You’re fucking argued out, kiddo.

    Jokes aside, Argentina has had a claim on it for ages and we’re slowly gaining influence for a long time until they decided to invade and actually take it. They though the Brits wouldn’t care about a rock on the other side of the world but turns out Thatcher needed a win and got everyone riled up.

    Nobody cared until Argentina invaded but now majority of the population is British military and British workers that support the military and whatnot. It was won with British blood that’s still in living memory so no way people are giving it up to Argentina.

    If Argentina would have just slowly settled the island, support it, have the government do a referendum about unifying with Argentina it would have probably worked but instead they just have the claim.

    I’m very early stages on making my own TUI for http requests that’s shortcut based. Idea is to use Jetbrains format http files. Folders for projects, sidebar for requests etc.

    Supports environments and I’m hoping I can set up the main screen to use Vim.

    It’s born out of postman hate mostly. It’s just so bloated

    You can tune the biters and make them spawn less, tech up slower etc.

    IIRC you can also use the Rail world mode and turn the settings as if they are Normal mode since any cleared space will not respawn biters.

    You can also turn up the resource richness and size so you have to expand less and then every now and then clear out an area. I used to be a bit turned off by the biters but now I’ve leaned into it and have have blueprints for making laser perimeter which kinda automates a lot of the biter handling.

    Maybe you just need a mindset shift where the biters are another automation challenge instead of it being an intrusion. I really hope you get to enjoy this game, I can’t anymore since I have a baby now but I hope you can. I’ll for sure start again as soon as time allows.

    Also, aim for 100% roboport coverage so you can automatically rebuild everything that gets destroyed. Then you can clear out something, paste a perimeter wall and continue on with factory stuff.

    I’d recommend starting by hosting a nextcloud instance.

    1. Get a desktop computer, pretty much anything will do but having room to add more HDD is important.
    2. Install Linux distro like Ubuntu or something
    3. Get a static IP so your IP doesn’t change
    4. Setup a router port forwarding rule so that an outside address points to your nextcloud instance.

    Then do some optional steps:

    • Automatically turn on PC when power comes back on (BIOS setting)
    • Startup script that runs nextcloud on startup
    • Install docker to manage services like nextcloud
    • Add some remote desktop thingy to manage your server from your laptop (ssh is also good but a steeper learning curve)
    • Get a NAS for storing data with redundancy.
    • Have some other form of backup like your current Google account, cloud provider or one of your mates with a similar setup.

    That’s pretty much what you need to start hosting your own files, then later on you can setup a email server, media server like Jellyfin, homepage and everything.

    Just go one step at a time and when you hit an issue you can and should ask Google or ChatGPT. Remember, everything exposed to the Internet is vulnerable so take security seriously. Always have everything protected by a decently long password, pairing requirement with your server confirming adding a device or an API key.

    It depends on the distro. Bazzite might get in the way since it’s a more closed distro if you want to do docker stuff. I personally managed but setting up extra hard drives that docker (podman) uses, but it was tricky. You’ll not have issue browsing the Web or installing most apps though.

    Nobara might be a good choice although the user base is not that big so you might have to migrate in a couple of years.

    Otherwise I’d stick to regular distros since they have great support and will stick around for a long time such as Fedora or Kubuntu. I’ve also heard Endavour is really good these days.

    You should consider choosing a distro based on the Wayland integration since you can get HDR fractional scaling and variable refresh rate with them.
