  • Fact is Israel will only stop when they are made to stop. They will keep pushing it farther and farther until they fuck up and mess with someone able to hurt them bad. Until then they are untouchable and it might be a long time. But Israel has already doomed its own long-term existence, they’re just too dumb to see it.

    My money is on them pulling a military stunt, accidental or not involving Turkye and then finding out. Turkye has the means to make them shit their breaches and there’s no way in hell the US is doing anything militarily against them and risking loosing a key member of NATO to Russia. If Turkye closes the Bosphorus, the Bosphorus stays closed and nobody has the means to forcibly open it short of using nukes.













  • Self-hosted machine. It was basically my old computer I bought back in '09. It’s a i5-750 on a Asus P5P77. It started with the 4 GB RAM I hadn’t sold until I upgrade to 8. I used a borrowed Nvidia GT730 and a 1 TB HDD at first until I upgrade my main PC GPU and bought a new HDD for the server so now it runs in a 4 TB HDD and my old GTX 1060 3 Gb. It’s a beast for my needs.

    • Jellyfin is the main reason I started my server. Initially it was so my mother could easily watch shows I would never illegally download. Until a realized it would be great for me too and friends. To not watch them…I mean, because that would be ilegal!

    • Qbittorrent…shit…oh well :)

    • Nginx, when I realized I could host my own development server and personal website

    • Komga, when I realized I could have the same benefits of Jellyfin with books and comics.

    • Tailscale, allows me to, among other things, use it as an online or LAN hard drive for me and people I like.

    • Samba, see above. It also works to keep a nice share folder between my main PC and my laptop

    The more time passes the more I realize self-hosting is the best idea ever. I get new ideias every day.


  • I have a Timex Computer 2068, a ZX Spectrum clone made my Timex Portugal. My dad bought it sometime in the 80s. I still turn it on from time to time, mostly out of nostalgia. That one is the oldest in my house. I was too young to remember it being bought but it had to be some time between 1985 or 1987.

    I also have the first model of the European Sega Master System made in 86 or 87 but I bought it second hand less than a year ago.




  • No chance. An open military attack would be the end of Israel. Spain is a EU and NATO member. Article 5 would be called and accepted by most NATO members. If not the alliance would be over immediately.

    Lets assume the US noped out (which they would never do if Israel dared to attack Spain). That would be the end of NATO but Israel would have to deal with the EU. Even Spain by itself could cause some serious damage to Israel. And they wouldn’t be by themselves.

    I’m Portuguese, and my country is the historical rival of Spain. An attack on Spain would be like a direct attack on us and most EU members feel the same.

    This, of course, is hypothetical. There’s no way Netanyahu would pull such a dumb and unthinkable move.
