This is me, as long as you replace the Powerbook with a Thinkpad T420.

I too am interested in the answer to this question

There’s a bit of different powers at play.

Initially there’s the 20% threshold.

The MK (Makamah Konstitusi, or Constitution Court) wants to change that exactly to encourage healthier competition. They then published a ruling that embodies this.

The DPR (Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat, or House of Representatives) somehow thought they’re above the law, and decided they want to pass a bill that overturns this ruling.

At the same time, the current president wants to endorse his son to be the governor of Jakarta. In fact, this has been his ultimate goal, to make all his sons “follow his footsteps” to secure his power for generations to come.

However, it is written that one needs to be at least 30 years old to be nominated. He is just right below, at 29 years old. The people are using this to keep him from power, and MK agrees. DPR is trying to overturn that too.

Do note that previously, the current president had mendled with MK ruling using a friend on the inside to get his older son to be eligible for vice-presidency. He is now elected.

And that, my friend, is what the Indonesian people had enough of.

… which favours parties in the ruling coalition … As a result, many local elections are expected to be uncontested affairs.

The current “status quo” is that the current ruler gets everything he wants.

I’m just unsure if I want to keep it running 24/7

This is exactly how I’d think about my daily driver. Unless the laptop you mentioned turns out to be a spare, that is…

You’d be surprised on what modern router got these days. I got a Linksys e8450 running OpenWRT on 512 MB of RAM and 1.35GHz of dual ARM core. Regardless I wouldn’t want to push it as I’d be in great trouble if that thing goes down (my whole household depends on it).

I do believe that router can serve files with no issue, just that it’d be limited to the USB 2.0 that it has. I’d still want a dedicated device regardless just so that I won’t feel bad about breaking it from time to time.

Because you’d need it for work, of course!

You would not wanna run jellyfin or any on-the-fly transcoding on anything but a dedicated device, my dude. Definitely wouldn’t on a work laptop.

Some routers are able to share files on USB devices, so that might be another option.

I feel like this is some Lemmy moment.

Maybe they can “accidentally” leak it?

Look, I’d help out, but all my donation budget had already gone to Ukraine (and Palestine).

So many Meshtastic mentions these days. Is it really worth the hype?

Which is ironic, considering that they’re British.

At this point, he’d be much safer surrendering to Ukraine.

What do you mean they don’t release to public?

There might be some intelligence in the government. They’re just not likely to serve you.

Didn’t know Tokyo also made shitty bloated GUI framework.

Honestly, mixing GamePass and Retro Gaming sounds stupid to me.

There was this project reimplementing GTA 3 engine, but got DMCAed.

Ever tried custom ROM?
