It’s pretty easy to DIY this with docker-wireguard on any cloud provider for a lot less than $50/month. Here’s their example docker compose, only ~20 lines: https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-wireguard?tab=readm

The official Pi 5 NVME hat doesn’t work with the active cooler and doesn’t fit full sized SSDs. I think the Pimoroni NVMe Base is a better choice since it doesn’t have those issues.

Keep in mind there’s only about 50 miles of high-speed rail in the U.S. so far. With major cities like Dallas and Houston or San Francisco and LA still unconnected by fast rail, there's significant room to boost GDP and improve lives.

Focusing on the cost-per-tonne for carbon reduction misses the broader value of railways. They're not just about reducing emission! They facilitate daily commutes, expand job opportunities, and help drive the economy. It’s a subsidy fo

This aligns with John Rawls’ idea that economic AND political systems should be structured to benefit the least advantaged. Rawls acknowledged government and markets are connected, and advocated for a fair system that ensures equity and sup

The issue isn't simply that profit motivates bad behavior, but rather how our capitalist system, particularly through lobbying and legislation, disproportionately amplifies the influence of well-capitalized interests. For instance, the

While it's true that no system is perfect, recognizing the US's achievements doesn't mean we should overlook its flaws, especially when they're as tangible as rapidly rising costs for essentials like housing and healthca

The trust placed in the US’s constitutional and legal frameworks to safeguard transactions is commendable but often doesn't reflect the full picture. While these systems are designed to prevent overt harm, they frequently fail to prote

Seems like a lot of the people quitting were just workers and producers that never had any real ownership stake in the business. After Covid they were already working like individual creators, so going and doing their own thing doesn’t seem

I’m assuming this is a joke, but there’s no explanation on the page about what ELIZA is and it’s not capitalized in the title of the post. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELIZA

I recently used a Treedix USB cable tester to figure out which cables were worth keeping. It’s probably not worth keeping any charging-only USB cables since you’ve got so many data cables.

Docker-wireguard: https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-wireguard?tab=readme-o... You set the number of peers and it generates that number of folders with certificates and QR codes for you.

The critique of the 1% is more of a call for a system that is doing less exploiting of labor of the many for the benefit of a few, which has been leading to these huge social, economic, and political disparities.
