    Well … that 1959 Peugeot 403 was 30+ year old by the 90s (and 40+ in 2003) … so idk, but it def felt like a statement (& extra effort).

    (Chars often have shitty old cars in the same sense as some have fancy “classic” old cars.)

    And about his wife Captain Janeway who was 12 at the time she was mentioned as already being his wife:

    Peter Falk expressed his disapproval of the spin-off, calling it a “bad idea” and “disgraceful”. Richard Levinson later joked that if they made another episode of Columbo they would have Columbo say “There’s a woman running around pretending to be my wife. She’s changing things. She’s a young girl. I wish my wife was like that. She’s an impostor.”

  • Well, I use it on all my rigs but it’s not directly what I think you are asking about.

    I just use Proxmox (hypervisor) to run vm/lxc which run docker - and I just have backup images of those.

    It has pros & cons but it’s not a docker backup, it’s just that by chance it’s ok for the little use I need it.

    I would go for one of the other recommended solutions but perhaps consider a Proxmox layer underneath if you wanna a full image backup of the server(s?) itself.


  • I think it’s especially important to ask them back if they didn’t actually mean it in the first place.

    Normies are weird, you just have to learn some arbitrary rules to coexist with them. It might feel fake, but it’s genuine to them.















  • Wdm…? All of them.
    Large plantations & established trade routes/businesses, slaves & their labour, the untaxed land & it’s natural resources (now paywalled to the British & co), the war industry was just being going, etc.

    Basically everything that gave the colonies so much power that it could literally rival the British empire - and everything that was the reason why the USA had such a high GDP growth after.
    What more could there even have been?

    I think people here are gonna have to reckon with the fact that there was a sincere wish for a government run by and for Americans as opposed to the British, rather than it being just greed.

    All the colonies at all times want more local autonomy (even now under USA empire).

    And at what time were the USA politics not governed by greed?
    And how much did the British crown affect the average settler (not the wealthy)? They didn’t do much outside their local village/municipality.

    … it’s the rich folk that didn’t want to have bosses that can affect their wealth & power at any point.

    The idea that the people wanted to vote in a complicated & not that democratic system is just propaganda to not follow the money & clearly see who had the financial motives.

    Same as the land grabs afterwards.
