Easier to hunt meat as meat, than as fat.

Losing weight, building up endurance. Saving “money”.

Other options are LUKS with Tang and Clevis, or LUKS with SSH and Dropbear.

Sorry, I have no details.

Edit: Tang/Clevis are local software and a network server that provide keys. If stolen, won’t boot.

SSH and Dropbear make it so you can login to provide keys.

Could running a VM help me organise my computer better?

No more than extra boxes will make your physical things more organized. In fact, I think it will make things worse.

VMs have great uses, but not this.

Folders are great though.

Lead with a joke about their car warranty.

They used to, in many places, lead to a sewage treatment facility. That has been changing.

Unless you mean the ocean. Then yes, same place.

Money in politics.

What features do you want?

By occasion. Work shirts taken from one side and added on other. Club wear and winter wear get own sections.

That hurts.

There is an issue. To eat food it takes money. The source of the money will influence the reporting. Humans give those that pay what they want.

When I don’t pay, someone else is. Sometimes a generous person, sometimes an aggressive nation.

Paying sucks, but not paying ever sucks more.

What should my first configurations and preparations

Write on paper your goals. Write on paper a list of your systems and what needs to speak with what.

Then pick the most important or simplest device and get it connected the way you want.

Start using it. Look up anything that bothers you.

Don’t make it your work or main computer yet. That might create too much frustration.

“Out of the box” security is decent at this point.

I beg to differ. The best part is they cannot be compelled to testify against you (and vice versa). (In the USA.)

(We didn’t do anything, I just don’t like being compelled.)

Escalation sucks when the other side has little to lose.

Seems about right.

Nice seeing you again.

At home, colors Whatever color the purpose is.

The number of people in democracies is going up.

Still a huge number of people living in autocracies.

Fuck, I read the wrong label. Not good.

With an electric car one may be able to plug an actual oven in…

Love it! A nice treat after work.
