We're finally moving! Been planning this since 2020.

I love you, Salami Navy. Chef's kiss. 😘
Willful ignorance is the greatest sin. I've been saying that for a while now, not that I believe in sin.
COVID was a real eye opener for me. Seeing how far people would go to remain ignorant.
Stupid can't be helped and there is nothing wrong with it. Ignorance is different and not necessarily bad, if you see that you're ignorant about something, you can choose to educate yourself.
However, willful ignorance is a different thing. I believe that most of society's ills are rooted in willful ignorance and its exploitation by the evil.
We just bought an old farmhouse in Pennsylvania that still has 9 acres, includes a small orchard and vineyard. My girl wants chickens and rabbits. I'm thinking a couple of steers next spring when I've had time to get good fencing up.
I grew up with cattle and worked on a tater farm through highschool.
We mostly just want to produce our own meat. Venison should be much easier.
The apple trees need a lot of TLC as does the vineyard.
I'll be in the market for a small tractor. As long as it is running, I should be able to fix it up and keep it going.
God fucking damnit. TSC is the closest ag supply to our new play farm. They're high compared to Rural King or a co-op, but they're convenient. Fuckers.
Wuh waah waah waah waah waah. Smack. Just 5 more minutes.
American Psycho?
My great grandmothers were: Lola, Layla, Eula, Lulua. For real. They were born around 1900.
We have a cat named Lulu.
I carry a LCP, (subcompact .380). I practice two hand, right hand, left hand. I also always try and shoot a magazine or two with sunglasses on at an indoor range to simulate low light conditions.
It has like a three inch barrel, so it's not the most accurate or easy to aim. I only shoot it at seven yards.
It's nasty to shoot, lot of kick. I call it the Angry Cricket. Trigger pull is heavy as it is a double action with no safety. I carry it with one in the pipe.
Hope I never have to use it, but if I do, I will be as accurate as possible. That's the ethical thing to do as I see it.
This is so stupid. It cracked me the fuck up. The kid and I are sitting giggling like a couple of morons.
Thank you for the advice.
We haven't had much time this year, so far, to go. Went to Lake Ouchita in Arkansas for the eclipse. Carried 200lbs of gear or so and used my boy's old sit on top child-size kayak for cargo.
Glad there are bluegill, we eat some pretty small ones so maybe it will be alright. Big cats will make my wife and myself happy.
Believe it or not, Alabama has a lot of clean rivers and I'm not used to worrying about pollution. There are some areas of the Tennessee River where it is a concern but that's big water and we haven't gone there. I'll have to look into it. Thanks for the heads up.
Water moccasins aren't a problem, used to them, there's a 10' gator in one of my favorite ponds.
Yeah, they do have inspections and that is probably what does it.
Atlanta is great, culture wise, but fuck driving in that abomination. Peach Tree!
Huntsville was our more progressive city, but it has really changed, and not in a good way.

UFW (Uncomplicated Firewall) with Wireguard connecting to Mullvad VPN sanity check on UFW setup.
(lemmy.world)
I would really appreciate it if someone would double check me. Sorry for the screenshot. Either the Lemmy code button isn't great or I'm just dum at formatting.
This has local *arr servers available and traceroute shows me going through the VPN.
The largest blue blotch is the ip address of a mullvad vpn server.
Rpi4, Raspberry Pi OS lite.
Mullvad VPN. IPv6 has been nuked. Using Wireguard through wg-quick.
wg2 originates from a .conf file from Mullvad with IPv6 stripped.
Do these UFW settings look right?

Small fan switch sanity check.
(lemmy.world)
Circuit is for controlling the fan on a Raspberry Pi, just on/off according to temp, no PWM. Not sure about the diode as it has a .7V drop and it's a tiny brushless DC motor. No markings on the fan so I measured the current with a multimeter when hooking it up to a USB charger. Circuit was adapted from here using what I have on hand.
Suggestions? Any advice is greatly appreciated!
*EDIT: Confirmed, this circuit works on a Raspberry Pi 4. Base was wired to GPIO 17 and manually tested using commands:
raspi-gpio set 17 op dh
raspi-gpio set 17 op dl
I didn't use a breadboard, just hack-n-slash with the wires coming out of the fan, the leads on the thru hole components, a jumper connected to gpio 17 as a socket for the base/resistor lead, and heat shrink tubing for insulation. Folded it up as I closed the housing. Case combo including heatsinks and fan here.
