We have a bunch of snapshots, good enough. Right?
I hate bare metal restores, but they work. If you took the time to test. And sometimes not.

One system we had reached out for some config files from another source. Completed a restore and the config started trashing the system as soon as it reconnected. Support, " Yeah, you should have turned that off on your 'dashboard' " Oblique and footnoted documentation for mission critical steps, FTW. Right?

Amazing Stories vol. 20, no. 7 (October 1946)

This is a REALLY striking image, what with the intensity of the eye contact, and I like his whole vibe, but it has zero narrative content. It's … a green man. OK, I guess?

A muscular figure with dark, jade-green skin stares intently toward the viewer, dressed in a toga with ornamental belt, headdress and cloak. Amazing Stories magazine cover from 1946.

I have an idea I would like to call a Freedom Test. The idea of this test is to determine if you really value freedom or if you value something else. Many people will claim they are about freedom, but often they either are conflating freedom with another value that is not actually freedom.

One example of the misuse of this term is by those who call for "free healthcare." Whether or not you value this, it is not freedom, but a provision.

The Freedom Test is helpful in determining who is for freedom and who is for "freedom."

The test is this: if we remove government entities from the equation, are you able to get what you want? The answer should be quite clear if you think about this.

For those who want their freedom to have firearms, the government being out of the way would not change your ability to have firearms. But if your "freedom" is paid for by the government ("free" healtchare), then you do not have true freedom.

Not everyone is going to be all about genuine freedom. And that is not necessarily a bad thing. But people should not be so quick to proclaim that they are about freedom if they require others to be forced into some action in order to attain their "freedom."

I would not consider myself anarcho-capitalist, but they at least are those that would be genuinely about freedom. But considering we have yet to have an ancap example in the world, that might show that 100% freedom might not be possible.

We can apply this test in multiple facets too. For example, gay marriage.

Whether you like it or not, if there are no restrictions to marriage, then gay marriage would be possible under the value of freedom.

The problems start coming in when the state is involved, such as lawsuits for gay wedding cakes or forcing others to acknowledge their marriage as valid. Many gays fail the freedom test the moment they are confronted with the fact that others do not want to participate.

@Zeb @HouseofTolstoy

In anarcho capitalism you can buy a marriage contract and the marriage contract would be enforced by a privatised rights enforcement agency

If there is a dispute between multiple rights enforcement agencies then it can be settled by arbitration

Hmm, have any countries start to think about an LA Olympics boycott yet? Will we be seeing a complete choreographed opening ceremony celebrating Dear Leader? Will they be renditioning and probing the gender of athletes at the events, or at the border?

@Sir ALF How many people escaped from West Germany to East? And then there was North vs South Viet Nam? Or how about the Bolshevik revolution, how did that work out? Or the Cultural Revolution in mainland China, there is a real winner. But rather than learn from history people will just say they didn't do it right, like there is ever a right way for a top-down dictatorship which every communist regime ultimately decays to in very short order.

@Killer_Mule the districts are so preposterous already, but Gaysom could make it worse. My district is totally mutated, as they all are. Its the entire north coast! The remote northerners are repped by Sonoma and Napa. Its unreal. So gay too tired of it. And I'm in Sonoma, which is bifurcated itself. The eastern and urban dorks and the west county rural muscle. The system is broken. And getting worse.

@Killer_Mule they'll just Ruby Ridge us. Its baked in. Not to be a downer, but seriously considering liquidating and exiting. Many factors involved, a constant undergirding stress in my life.

The idea that Del Norte residents are repped by the same critter as Santa Rosa is absurd. They have no rep ever under this construct.

I'd split Sonoma County into two if I had such an axe.
