Certain TLD (e.g. .com, .net, .xyz) will cost a different amount per year to register. I use porkbun as well. A .com or .net may be $12.50+ per year. The cheapest domain is 9 numbers and .xyz from porkbun at 1.22/yr (e.g 123456789.xyz) but isnt as memorable. I use one of those just for external access otg with a cron script for updating the dns entries.

Also remember to hide the whois info because you will immediately start getting calls from scammers that scrape the phone number and call you telling you that you need to pay them to finish setting things up

Generic process is to register the domain, set up the DNS entries to point to your server IP, and if theres any dynamic DNS setup in your software, to enter the api key from your registrar and the domain so it can update it if your IP ever changes.

The republicans have always gotten their way by obstructing everywhere they can and forcing negotiations even when they do not have the majority. The democratic leadership (e.g. hakeem jeffries and chuck schumer) throw their hands up and say “we cant do anything” and promptly do nothing or flip sides.

Doing this sets a standard for democratic politicians and puts pressure on the democrats to do something, anything even if it is just to be a thorn in the republicans side. Any of them who continues to waste the little power they do have will have to face their own constituents who ask “if Booker can do that for 25 hours, where the fuck were you when we needed you to fight back against this”

It might prevent them from voting too

That seems pretty arbitrary

0-2 would indicate negative, 0 being extremely bad and life changing and 2 pretty bad (worse than broken bones)

3 which should be neutral is broken bones

4-6 indicates success, but 4 seems to be just barely passing (e.g. landing it but with a fumble and falling) which doesnt seem to balance out a broken bone for 3 or something worse at 2

That is the opposite of what the we should have learned from what happened with the Nazis and what Milgram experiment warned us of. Its the reason there’s memes about “just following orders.” If pressured, most people will just listen to what theyre told even if it means knowingly hurting someone.

Passive acceptance is part of the reason Nazis were able to take over while not being the majority in Germany.

If you do a 5 bit encoding (0-31) that’s enough for the alphabet and numbers can overlap with letters like in braille, plus spaces. Thats around 1638 characters. Standard ascii is technically 7 bits and that would compress to 1170 characters without the initial 0
