  • I mean if someone can conceive it then yes.

    Personally I do think there will always be a “class” of some sort since even among career and financial equals I still view colleagues as a different class of human.

    Like I’m a camp in the woods kinda human where my coworker is a take his car to a race track kinda human.

    But that’s never the class that is being discussed.

    A classless society is specifically one where someone doesn’t have power over you by some financial measure. A true meritocracy as there is no financial incentive to be in those roles since it is also a moneyless society.

    Utopian? Maybe. Conceivable? Yeah I can conceive what that would be like and I want to strive for it.

    Maybe its not important if its possible and its just important that there are people willing to work towards it or implement something like it in their own controllable way.










  • It was really simple to do in Proxmox.

    You will find no name brand HBAs in IT mode on eBay for half the price of Intel, Supermicro, Dell, Etc branded ones. Do not buy the no names. I spent a week flashing and reflashing some cheap one, cycling through cables, etc. Nothing.

    My supermicro branded one worked absolutely no issue. And I think it was like $40

    It probably took a total of 30 minutes to pass it through and build the VM and everything. It took a couple days to rebuild my data from my previous truenas server but I had 10 TB of data on 4 drives.

    The only issues I’ve had have been my own reading comprehension in setting up truenas accounts.






  • Great read and good points by you.

    That’s a fair read and I had kinda come to that thought process. He’s a friend of Trumps and I guess Musk as well. So he’s okay with fascists.

    But I do want to point out that in the linked article, he talks about a guy, Franchi, who received support from Communists and presumably the UK while resisting Mussolini but was a monarchist who fell into right wing activities after the war and was charged for plotting a pro monarchy court d’etat.

    Much like how I don’t condemn small African anti colonial governments for taking Russian assistance. I don’t immediately view a struggling Small Pro Capitalist state taking USA assistance as inherently condemn able.

    I don’t know Milei’s full views, but I struggle to have “guy who’s rounding up all the racial undesirables and occupying cities with troops” on the same level as “guy who thinks letting companies pay in milk is good”. Both are dangerous and bad ideas, but one is much MUCH worse in my opinion.

    If I’m missing something, I’m genuinely down to learn more. These are just my concerns with my limited understanding.
