@TheOneBallWonder Brilliant! A web site actually wants you to run a script to verify? This is funny! 😎

I guess it is almost as funny as some software projects wanting you to install their software by running a script off their web site.

@freepatriot True. But note that the US also fingerprints people. This is not right of course, and perhaps it is good that americans will be treated the same way it treats its tourists and business travellers?

The best would of course be no passports and no border controls, coupled with _no_ welfare state.

@lain 3kWh?

@SMetzeler True. The EU is a failing state. It is amazing how well the thought control works from the top. Very few people in the EU even know there is a problem.

You are lucky to live in Switzerland, one of the last bastions of freedom on the european continent.

@matthew I never had any trouble with it. What I do, is that I have a cron script that automatically renews it every n months or so.

They emailed about using some new horribly complicated stuff to renew it, but I juts have some kind of cli program that I run from cron. Works like a charm.

@MSP_SMIMSA @Dan_Ramos Touché! 😎

@sun Human envy is infinite. It is a very sad thing to see.

@nopatience And how much do you pay at Hetzner? Do you have any performance/latency requirements or is it just plain S3? What about uptime/SLA:s?

@nopatience How many TB are we talking about, and what are the performance requirements?

I'm looking for someone to split a 20U offer with me, but if you want to run some minio, I might be able to set something up depending on the requirements.

@Zergling_man @shortstories @jeffcliff Plenty of bots on the fediverse. No point in tracking them down, I just live with it.

@Dan_Ramos Finally! I'm so happy the swedish civil servant and scientist Jacob Faggot finally gets the attention he deserves! 😎

@Zergling_man @jeffcliff Where do you find this beautiful poetry? ;) It seems like it was quite a heated exchange of opinions on that forum.

@jeffcliff examples of the state and should ideally be forbidden. The state instantly turns it against its own (yes I cound the police as well) to benefit its political class.

@jeffcliff Very much true. I think self-defense is necessary, but military in the modern sense, is a huge drain on the economy and basically just a welfare program for people who are not so intelligent.

I'd much prefer a gun in every home and guerilla warfare if someone attacks, or the wonders of the threat of nuclear bombs, biological warfare, or blackmailing the leaders of the invading nation (if you have something to blackmail with).

Military in and of itself, is one of the most revolting

@jeffcliff Woho, I'm No Apologies Right!

Deeply conservative with a hard-edged approach to politics, they strongly support gun rights, restrictive immigration policies and a limited welfare state. They place high importance on American military power and view the U.S. as superior to other countries.

Don't know where the military power thing came from though, that could have been a misclick.
