I have been banging my head against the desk over this. I can use u-boot on the SD card to boot alpine off a flash drive. I cannot get the entire thing running off SD card though. It keeps doing this. What am I missing?

Oh god I miss pet therapy. My cat died last year. A snuggly little manx named Ada Lovelace. I still miss her terribly. I dont have any downtime or spare money right now and I don't see that changing. A lot needs to go well in my life for me to be able to pull off this self-rescue, and I'm still in the planning stages but I appreciate the offer.

My fear is that will take more time than I have.

There isn't a non-violent solution to fascism. I am one unarmed man in Ohio. I can't do anything about the nazis. I voted against them. I've signed petitions. I've done all the things a functioning society has available but they don't work when your opponent isn't playing the same game by the same rules. Unless these guys start dropping like flies things wont change. This thing has its own momentum now. I don't have the ability to change that.

I think I might fall into the refugee category. I feel ridiculous saying that as there are others who are far worse off than I am though.

 

I'm looking over my options in fleeing for safety as things get worse down here. I am considering joining friends in Oregon but that might not safe enough. I'm gay, atheist, have a college degree (not in anything useful, however), and am everything the nazi's down here hate.

I need to get out.

I know you guys are justifiably pissed at us Americans right now, but if I were to try and move to Canada (and I have no idea how I could possibly do such a thing in time) would I be welcomed there? Would I be safe? Or would I be seen as an aggressor or threat of some sort?

I need to get out of here but if it means going somewhere everyone will hate me I might not be any better off.

 

a bit over a year ago, I went through debt consolidation. I signed up with a company that offers me a monthly payment to kill my credit cards and provide me legal representation should I need it. It's been about a year since and they have only shut down some of them. There are 1 or 2 still left open.

I was told not to make any payments on the cards. Let them complain and threaten with collections. This will let the debt consolidators buy the debt for cheap if the credit card companies refuse to close the cards. They have been tanking my credit for months and they aren't closing my cards.

Now I'm in a bad place financially. I lost the job I had at the time I went into consolidation and the current one isn't paying as much. I'm not missing any payments but it's trapping me.

I may need to leave my state for some place safer soon. But I have such a poor credit score now that I cant imagine anyone renting to me now.

Debt consolidation feels like it was a scam.

Should I declare bankruptcy and start over?

They consider women pets. They aren’t people to them.

Honestly if someone tried flying a 747 into a US government building today, I think we would have a very different reaction than the last time they tried it.

rockchip based SBCs are powerful enough for general-purpose use. Some of the companies behind them are american like PINE64 but most arent. There's a promising board called the orion o6 coming out of china but its still really young in its development and support lifecycle and its hard to source.

Hyundai EVs really are good. They made absolutely terrible gas cars but chose the transition to EVs to make new company out of themselves and they did an absolutly incredible job. They make some of the best EVs in the market.
