Nah mate, those are the venture capitalists and their vulture marketing teams.

The fridge was a low-rider.

I think you’re missing some key points.

1. Any file hosting service, no matter what, will have to deal with CSAM as long as people are able to upload to it. No matter what. This is an inescapable fact of hosting and the internet in general.

2. Because CSAM is so ubiquitous and constant, one can only do so much to moderate any services, whether they’re a large corporation are someone with a server in their closet. All of the larger platforms like ‘meta’, google, etc., mostly outsource that moderation to workers in developing countries so they don’t have to also provide mental health counselling, but that’s another story.

3. The reason they own their own hardware is because the hosting services can and will disable your account and take down your servers if there’s even a whiff of CSAM. Since it’s a constant threat, it’s better to own your own hardware and host everything from your closet so you don’t have to eat the downtime and wait for some poor bastard in Nigeria to look through your logs and reinstate your account (not sure how that works exactly though).

yes

Iain M. Banks too. ;-; Hydrogen Sonata was so good, and I remember seeing if there was another one in the works but turned out, no. Never will be…

The worst that can happen is the felt falls apart where there are signs of mould and the hat is now two useless pieces or maybe there’s just a bunch of tears above the sweat. The main concern is not the type of hat, but how old it is and mostly how much damage the mould has done.

I imagine (as in I’m not sure) that if you try to do it yourself you might tear it around the area where it looks like some dirt has soaked in and provided a foothold for mould to grow from. I suspect that area is very fragile rn.

Personally, given it’s age, I would ask for advice from a museum on the best ways to clean and care for it and ask them if it’s possible for it to be reshaped to fit you.

Is that… a drone with a freakin’ grenade launcher on it’s head?

Fight not, here, rest your head on my lap pillow. UwU

Unfortunately, the current capitalist system in place for most of the world is incompatible with most people to varying degrees. This leads to people not sleeping as much as they should, which makes people stupid and behave like dicks.

Maybe insects, but donuts is a better description for most mammals.

Land Crab? Sure, why not.

My jansport backpack is probably almost a decade old by now. Same with some of the t-shirts I have but they can get kind of smelly if I sweat too much.

Same. I’d like to find a replacement for the left foot (or at least the left big toe) but I can’t find any, anywhere.

lol. lmao even.
