It just occurred to me that younger developers may not see the whole joke here…
For those unaware, a magnet would corrupt/destroy the contents on the floppy disk.

I get the sentiment, I really do. But it’s not fair to those that actively tried (and are trying) to get rid of Trump. Personally, I’m trying my best, but there isn’t much I can do on a national scale while trying to keep my family’s head above water.
My son thankfully is no longer getting chemo treatments so he isn’t immunocompromised—but we know a lot of cancer families where their kids are undergoing chemo. Do they deserve it? Empathy goes a long way.

God exists and only accepts those who question his existence because blindingly accepting his existence are not properly utilizing his gift (rational thinking) to mankind.

What battle influenced the course of history the most?
Reply in thread
Even if Germany succeeded at Stalingrad and captured the Caucasus, there was no way Germany would have been able to maintain it. The entire campaign was doomed for failure.
The oil fields were sabotaged well in advance and weren’t able to produce notable amount for a good 6-9mo after. Allies had plans to bomb the crap out of them as well. Russia moved the majority of their industry further inland prior to the German’s arrival.
Put simply: Germany didn’t have the population or production capacity to win. It just wasn’t feasible. Could they have won “politically”? I suppose, but that’s like asking if Allied leadership would have sued for peace, which based on the personalities is pretty damn unlikely.

Came to learn how to Blender, left because the "creative" in charge is yet another MAGAt.
Constantly refer to the instructor as a she. When corrected, push back and call them “snowflake woke pronoun warriors”

I never suggested they were stupid. Just that they may not know the details. So I explained it.

Claude has a place for simple tasks. It does a great job of being an “advanced find in files” or being a “smart boilerplate generators” but anything remotely more complex and the issues start to show, really quickly. When writing new prototype code, it does very well. But when you have to handle all sorts of edge cases, it doesn’t do it as well. It also doesn’t do a good job with debugging anything more than surface level. Opus does slightly better, but even then gets into the frequent “I found the issue! oh wait, that’s fine. I found the issue! Oh wait, that’s fine” loop over and over again.
And before you ask: Yes, I’ve been using Copilot CLI for work pretty regularly for the past couple months.
Aside: It doesn’t help that the true token costs are off by a factor of 100-1000. Yes, I know general reporting is saying the breakeven is 10x, but…well, you’ll have to trust me that’s not accurate.

I don’t have as many opportunities to do what you suggest—never mind that I wouldn’t wish harm on people. I’ve convinced many off the MAGA ledge, but I’m not exactly in a position to travel places since I have to take care of my son since his tumor was on his spinal cord and a chunk had to get removed.
I’ll be frank, though, you’re certainly entitled to your opinion, but you’re wrong. Commit violent acts and they’ll go further into their MAGA hole and be more justified. But yes, I’ve contributed by making my local gov go from red to blue through active participation and knocking on doors—probably way more than you would do.

Simple inexpensive cloud backup?
I’ve had a good experience with pCloud. One-time lifetime fee. Just set the Immich directory in its entirety as a backup folder.
3TB is a weird place to be with their pricing, though. You can buy 2 TB twice, iirc.
