Tax stamps (recently repealed)
For the longest time, if you wanted certain types of weapons, you had to pay a $200 tax to own that weapon. These include surpressors, full auto guns, short barrel rifles, and short barrel shotguns
The point wasn’t to ban these things it was to make them prohibitively expensive because “its the poor’s who vomit violence”. And this tax was implemented in the 1940’s where $200 was off 2 or 4 times the cost of the gun itself.
A different example is gun registries and concealed carry license databases. I don’t trust the police to act calm when interacting with me when they know I have a gun. There are special classes that CCL holders take often so that they know how to read a cop and keep them calm during a traffic stop or a welfare check because cops are trained to shoot first and are very scared of the masses.
Think of Paretti here. Shot dead for having a gun. People blamed it on the ICE agent being a violent fascist thug trained like that. I don’t see it that way. I think he operated like a cop who was told no consequences.
We have videos of cops approaching black men, committing the crime of being in white people spaces, who ask them if they have a gun, the man says yes, the cop tells them at gun point to pull it out and drop it, and then shoost the man when he touches the gun.
I don’t trust police to use surveillance state information like who owns what guns in a way that won’t get me killed. Its why I’m still hesitant to get any tax stamp items. I’d love an SBR, but then I am legally required to let the ATF “inspect” my home if they ask me to. I have to tell the ATF when and where I’m moving to if I change states.

5·2 months agoThis video by Northridgefix always stuck with me because most of why his business grew is because he spent so much Google ads that he made enough money to then move to a strip mall by a major road all while making YouTube videos and taking mailed in work.
He has another video looking for new employees because he had too much business.

Yeah!
So i am running these three computers in a set up that let’s me manage virtual machines on them from a website with Proxmox.
I want to play with a tool that let’s me run Docker Containers. Containers being a way to host services like websites and web apps without having to make a Virtual machine for each app.
This has a lot of advantages but I’m trying to use the High Availability feature when you run these on a cluster of computers.
My problem is that I know I can use the Built In container software in the already clustered Proxmox computers called LXC Linux Containers. However, I want to use a container software called Kubernetes but I would have to build Virtual machines on my servers and then cluster those virtual machines.
Its a little confusing because I have three physical computers clustered together and I’m trying to then build three virtual computers on them and cluster those. Its an odd thing to do and that’s the problem.

1·1 year agoI download the YouTube tutorials I followed, upload them to my UAT Jellyfin server, and then when my server is having issues I can’t get to the videos!
A flawless system really
