Trump stands to make $3.5 billion from his 60% share of Truth Social now that it has become a meme stock
  • He can't sell for six months after it goes public, nor can he use his shares as collateral for a loan in those six months. If he loses the election, stock will tank, so IPO needs to be delayed until mid-May to potentially royally screw him over.

  • Idiot Trump Confesses He Actually Has the Money to Post Bond
  • DJT's public offering needs to be pushed out past the first or second week of May in order to screw Donnie over. He can't cash out any shares for six months, or use those shares as collateral for six months either.

    If he loses in November, that stick becomes worthless.

  • Ocasio-Cortez demands GOP specify actual crimes in Biden impeachment inquiry
  • Republicans have to be continually humiliated in front of the nation. That is the only thing that will work, and that is all that they will listen to (other than outright brutality). Utter and complete humiliation every day.

    Dems as a party won't do it because they a) fear losing imaginary "centrist" voters, and b) don't actually want to be in power anyway, since they can fundraise more when they are in the opposition.

  • Lauren Boebert Can’t Shake the Beetlejuice Debacle
  • The trick is that they don't care if you call them hypocrites. Those packets just get dropped at the router. It's like calling them "xorflax" or something... the words have no meaning to them.

  • Being Mean to Scabs Is Working
  • IATSE isn't part of the strike. Most likely because AMPTP would find a way to make American Gladiators with non-union labor, which would be a body blow to the union.

    If you're IATSE, you're working right now, because the union isn't on strike.

    Edit: upon re-re-re-reading your comment, I now think you're saying that the crew got fucked over, which I wholeheartedly agree with.

  • Linux for 2013 Trashcan Mac?

    I recently purchased a Mac Studio to replace my ancient Trashcan Mac (work in post audio, it's a Pro Tools world, so no Linux options unfortunately).

    The Trashcan has basically no resale value, and is already capped out on OS updates.

    Specs are:

    -10 core E5 Xenon (I forget the clock speed, and it's unplugged atm)

    -64GB ram

    -512GB SSD (NVMe PCIe 3.1 x4)

    -Dual D500 (whatever that is) graphics card(s)

    https://www.apple.com/ae/mac-pro-2013/specs/

    My thought is to repurpose it either as a hardware firewall since it has two enet ports, or NAS - ideally running headless, and would be able to be admin'd by the other Macs in the house.

    My last Linux experience was Gentoo in 2004, and Slackware before that. I'm not afraid of CLI, but it's been 20 years, so what little I remember is probably completely outmoded in 2023.

    Any advice for distros that would work for this use case?

    Thanks!
