Imagine less off a proper BOD and more of a 3D Printable holder for 3.5 inch drives and no actual connections.

I was considering a mini ITX PC with just an external SAS to Sata PCI card. But at the rate of just building that I might end up just building a better tiny nas box with maybe a jonsbo case like the N3

I just steal those.

I feel like I can do some gnarly satanic shit with stolen bibles

That's basically what I'm going for.

How are you connecting the mini PC via SATA and how are you powering the BOD?

Literally had a show about it

Which was quote meta considering he literally had a show about it.

Man I wonder what Tim Allen's been up to. I wonder if he did another show literally about performing masculinity where he literally has a show about performing masculinity in the show.

Man that'd be wild.

All of a sudden "Darmok" is a much less stupid episode.

Not really interested until I can use it via api.

The AI bubble hasn't popped so free tiers for basically any AI is better than Lump which is just running other better models anyways.

In fact if the point is to spite american companies(you should), you should just over use free tier american AIs since it costs them lots of money.

My brain is fried.

I thought you said A.I. Bundy and I was trying so hard to see how this looked like A.I.

I agree that ruler was the wrong word. "Renaissance Henry Kissinger" is certainly more accurate.

I disagree that his most influential move was the militia. His most influential move was the complex diplomatic network of alliances, treaties, and call backs to how great Rome was was objectively more influential since we actually still do it.

The Medici also didn't really beg daddy pope. I'm pretty sure that the pope was a Medici. I'll edit here if I'm wrong: Not a Medici, but was good friends with the two Medici Popes

He apparently wrote a lot in his correspondences how much he loved Florence and despite the torture, he did get a job writing the histories of Florence paid for by the Medici who did originally exile him.

All of that, BTW, was also in the wikipedia pages I linked.

Context: One interpretation of Niccolo Machiavelli was as a practical "patriot" who saw the turmoil that befell so many of the great cities of Italy during their warring and feuding. So he invented his controversial political ideology that influences modern day politics. He knew his time as ruler of Florence was limited. So he wrote "The Prince" as a manual for how he managed to keep mercenaries out of Florence and freely circulated to his friends and then to his successor the Medicis
