[2025-12-08T05:26:24Z] <midfavila> aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa my district is finally getting a grocery store!!!
[2025-12-08T05:26:33Z] <midfavila> it's opening just a few steps from my flat
[2025-12-08T06:00:14Z] <kris_> !!!!!!!!!!
[2025-12-08T06:00:19Z] <kris_> midfavila: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[2025-12-08T06:00:23Z] <kris_> that kicks ass
[2025-12-08T06:00:27Z] <kris_> how far away is "a few steps"
[2025-12-08T06:02:12Z] <midfavila> maybe 50ft
[2025-12-08T06:02:21Z] <kris_> dang that's like 50ft away in american units
[2025-12-08T06:02:28Z] <kris_> that kicks ass im jealous
[2025-12-08T06:02:34Z] <midfavila> this is civilisation 
[2025-12-08T06:02:49Z] <kris_> once i move im gonna be well placed
[2025-12-08T06:02:57Z] <kris_> the smoke shop i go to is right across the road, my uni is like 2 blocks away
[2025-12-08T06:03:03Z] <kris_> gas station nearby for me to buy things i shouldnt be eating
[2025-12-08T06:09:44Z] <kris_> mid what is the first thing you will procure at this modern establishment
[2025-12-08T07:23:19Z] <midfavila>  kris_: probably fruit 
[2025-12-08T07:23:24Z] <midfavila> if they stock it
[2025-12-08T07:23:57Z] <midfavila> i'll likely still be buying things like canned food and such at the regular shop but for everyday staples like milk, eggs, apples, etc i'll probably be getting it from them
[2025-12-08T07:24:01Z] <kris_> what kinda fruit do you like
[2025-12-08T07:24:20Z] <midfavila> apples are cheap and convenient but not my favourite
[2025-12-08T07:24:29Z] <midfavila> i don't really like bananas, at least the ones we get
[2025-12-08T07:24:38Z] <midfavila> they're bland and starchy
[2025-12-08T07:24:57Z] <midfavila> in theory i like citrus but in practice i hate the mouth-feel of pulp
[2025-12-08T07:25:09Z] <midfavila> i really really really love pomegranates but they're insanely expensive
[2025-12-08T07:25:22Z] <kris_> i dont like bananas because of the texture
[2025-12-08T07:25:23Z] <midfavila> pears are really good all around
[2025-12-08T07:25:24Z] <kris_> its like eating moist chalk
[2025-12-08T07:25:36Z] <kris_> i also dont like apples due to the texture
[2025-12-08T07:25:39Z] <kris_> ive never had a pomegranate
[2025-12-08T07:25:44Z] <midfavila> cavendish bananas suck
[2025-12-08T07:25:57Z] <midfavila> apparently the last cultivar that was common in the west was the gros miguel 
[2025-12-08T07:26:02Z] <midfavila> or the 'big mike'
[2025-12-08T07:26:11Z] <midfavila> the ones banana candy is supposedly based off of
[2025-12-08T07:26:25Z] <midfavila> but now they're uncommon and insanely expensive
[2025-12-08T07:26:43Z] <midfavila> i think overall my favourite fruit would be pears
[2025-12-08T07:27:09Z] <midfavila> they're reasonably cheap, reasonably long-lasting, have a good texture, lots of meat, mild but pleasant flavour, and they're just good
[2025-12-08T07:27:21Z] <midfavila> pomegranates are kind of funky
[2025-12-08T07:27:29Z] <midfavila> they have a ton of juice and a lot of flavour
[2025-12-08T07:27:35Z] <midfavila> sweet and sorta zesty i guess
[2025-12-08T07:27:38Z] <kris_> iirc the type of banana that laffy taffy candy is based on is now extinct
[2025-12-08T07:27:42Z] <midfavila> but they also have *tons* of seeds
[2025-12-08T07:27:46Z] <midfavila> kris_: that's big mike
[2025-12-08T07:27:49Z] <midfavila> big mike is still around
[2025-12-08T07:27:52Z] <kris_> ah
[2025-12-08T07:27:58Z] <midfavila> they just aren't commercially cultivated
[2025-12-08T07:28:02Z] <kris_> idk i dont like pears
[2025-12-08T07:28:08Z] <kris_> my favorite fruit is one that can't be sold in stores
[2025-12-08T07:28:10Z] <midfavila> there's a store in florida that grows gros miguel in small batches
[2025-12-08T07:28:12Z] <kris_> we call them "pawpaws"
[2025-12-08T07:28:23Z] <midfavila> but it's like 20USD for one banana
[2025-12-08T07:28:43Z] <kris_> we own a few pawpaw trees at home but the pawpaws are only good for like a week out of the year on the tree
[2025-12-08T07:28:52Z] <kris_> and they're too fragile to be sold in stores
[2025-12-08T07:29:01Z] <midfavila> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asimina_triloba
[2025-12-08T07:29:03Z] <midfavila> ?
[2025-12-08T07:29:08Z] <midfavila> man
[2025-12-08T07:29:11Z] <midfavila> i wish i had a house
[2025-12-08T07:29:20Z] <midfavila> i would love to be able to just get free food
[2025-12-08T07:29:45Z] <kris_> yeah those
[2025-12-08T07:29:48Z] <kris_> they're really interesting
[2025-12-08T07:29:51Z] <kris_> they're like less shit bananas
[2025-12-08T07:30:07Z] <kris_> ive never known them as anything but pawpaws
[2025-12-08T07:30:28Z] <midfavila> are there meemaws
[2025-12-08T07:30:54Z] <kris_> i have no idea
[2025-12-08T07:30:57Z] <midfavila> i think the only fruit here that's somewhat common is crab apples
[2025-12-08T07:30:59Z] <kris_> not that ive heard of
[2025-12-08T07:31:05Z] <kris_> back home we have a ton of stuff
[2025-12-08T07:31:12Z] <kris_> we have some cherry trees, the stated pawpaw trees
[2025-12-08T07:31:14Z] <kris_> blueberry bushes
[2025-12-08T07:31:21Z] <midfavila> but even then the local council destroys fruit trees in public spaces
[2025-12-08T07:31:21Z] <kris_> theyre kinda just like
[2025-12-08T07:31:22Z] <kris_> around
[2025-12-08T07:31:24Z] <kris_> we didnt put them there
[2025-12-08T07:32:08Z] <midfavila> i feel like having a house and a little garden that you get most of your food from is sort of peak human
[2025-12-08T07:32:28Z] <kris_> i dont know if i could really feed myself and my family with a back yard sized garden
[2025-12-08T07:32:31Z] <midfavila> i've never had a house that has had fruit trees or anything
[2025-12-08T07:32:35Z] <midfavila> kris_: potatoes
[2025-12-08T07:32:37Z] <kris_> i mean that as a literal >i don't know
[2025-12-08T07:32:39Z] <midfavila> sunchokes
[2025-12-08T07:32:42Z] <kris_> yeah potatoes are awesome
[2025-12-08T07:32:44Z] <midfavila> sunchokes are actually insane
[2025-12-08T07:32:50Z] <kris_> potatoes are one of my favorite foods
[2025-12-08T07:32:52Z] <midfavila> i think they might be better than potatoes
[2025-12-08T07:32:52Z] <kris_> idk what a sunchoke is
[2025-12-08T07:32:58Z] <midfavila> they're like
[2025-12-08T07:33:00Z] <midfavila> fuckin
[2025-12-08T07:33:00Z] <midfavila> uhh
[2025-12-08T07:33:06Z] <midfavila> they look like beige gingerroot
[2025-12-08T07:33:10Z] <midfavila> but they're tubers like potatoes
[2025-12-08T07:33:16Z] <midfavila> and they're slightly nutty and sweet
[2025-12-08T07:33:25Z] <midfavila> and they're perennial and they grow like fucking weeds
[2025-12-08T07:33:36Z] <kris_> yknow
[2025-12-08T07:33:45Z] <kris_> i had a sweet potato for the first time in like 15 years on thanksgiving
[2025-12-08T07:33:45Z] <midfavila> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerusalem_artichoke
[2025-12-08T07:33:51Z] <kris_> turns out i think sweet potatoes are fucking amazing
[2025-12-08T07:33:53Z] <midfavila> sweet potato or yam
[2025-12-08T07:33:55Z] <kris_> i HATED them
[2025-12-08T07:33:56Z] <midfavila> either way yes
[2025-12-08T07:33:56Z] <kris_> as a kid
[2025-12-08T07:33:59Z] <midfavila> they're based
[2025-12-08T07:34:05Z] <midfavila> they're like potatoes but better
[2025-12-08T07:35:29Z] <midfavila> also iirc sunchokes are NA native
[2025-12-08T07:35:33Z] <midfavila> which is nice
[2025-12-08T07:36:42Z] <kris_> is that important
[2025-12-08T07:36:49Z] <midfavila> yes
[2025-12-08T07:37:06Z] <midfavila> it helps maintain the ecosystem of the continent instead of disrupting it with non-native plants and animals and shit
[2025-12-08T07:37:29Z] <midfavila> 's why i say FUCK the bees, LET them die, they fucked up the ecology of NA and shit
[2025-12-08T07:37:39Z] <midfavila> honeybees are invasive
[2025-12-08T07:37:53Z] <kris_> what
[2025-12-08T07:37:56Z] <kris_> are bees not like, important
[2025-12-08T07:38:00Z] <kris_> i thought bees were native here
[2025-12-08T07:38:37Z] <midfavila> there *are* north american bees
[2025-12-08T07:38:41Z] <midfavila> but *honey* bees aren't
[2025-12-08T07:38:43Z] <midfavila> afaik
[2025-12-08T07:39:12Z] <midfavila> honey bees were brought over by settlers from europe as chattel and began to outcompete native insects 
[2025-12-08T07:39:22Z] <midfavila> now everything depends on honeybees 
[2025-12-08T07:39:27Z] <midfavila> classic human W
[2025-12-08T07:39:39Z] <kris_> well i mean
[2025-12-08T07:39:42Z] <midfavila> dude what the fuck fruit trees are so cheap
[2025-12-08T07:39:44Z] <kris_> if we need them *now* i guess that means we just need them
[2025-12-08T07:39:46Z] <kris_> yes mid 
[2025-12-08T07:39:48Z] <kris_> you can just plant shit
[2025-12-08T07:39:54Z] <midfavila> *you* can just plant shit
[2025-12-08T07:39:59Z] <kris_> you can just plant shit.
[2025-12-08T07:39:59Z] <midfavila> i don't have any land
[2025-12-08T07:40:05Z] <kris_> fuck land put a seed in the ground
[2025-12-08T07:40:07Z] <kris_> somewhere
[2025-12-08T07:40:16Z] <midfavila> all the ground is covered with concrete and asphalt
[2025-12-08T07:40:17Z] <midfavila> :c
[2025-12-08T07:40:20Z] <kris_> oh
[2025-12-08T07:40:26Z] <kris_> yeah that changes things i guess
[2025-12-08T07:40:30Z] <kris_> we have a fair amount of grass in my city
[2025-12-08T07:40:36Z] <midfavila> i would rent a plot in one of the city gardens but it's insanely expensive
[2025-12-08T07:40:39Z] <midfavila> like 90$ a month
[2025-12-08T07:41:08Z] <midfavila> and the plots are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay out on the outer districts
[2025-12-08T07:41:27Z] <kris_> if you want to get shit to plant just for fun you could get one of those window mount flowerpots
[2025-12-08T07:41:30Z] <kris_> it wont feed you but it's cool
[2025-12-08T07:41:38Z] <midfavila> my window doesn't get sunlight
[2025-12-08T07:41:39Z] <midfavila> :c
[2025-12-08T07:41:57Z] <kris_> iirc at our new house we're going to have a pretty massive garden
[2025-12-08T07:42:03Z] <kris_> my stepmother has a thing with that
[2025-12-08T07:42:12Z] <kris_> we have a small garden in the backyard here but its all dead now because snow
[2025-12-08T07:42:32Z] <midfavila> people here have started digging 'victory gardens' again because of food prices
[2025-12-08T07:42:43Z] <kris_> what is a victory garden
[2025-12-08T07:42:44Z] <midfavila> it's good that people are gardening again but it's depressing that that's the motivating factor
[2025-12-08T07:42:54Z] <midfavila> they were a wartime measure in the british empire during ww2
[2025-12-08T07:42:58Z] <midfavila> as a way to promote thrift 
[2025-12-08T07:43:16Z] <kris_> the problem with our garden is that they didnt separate the plants well enough
[2025-12-08T07:43:19Z] <midfavila> basically it was a way to reduce the load civilians placed on the food supply 
[2025-12-08T07:43:20Z] <kris_> the mint took over the entire thing
[2025-12-08T07:43:28Z] <kris_> i'm going to have to look up victory garden
[2025-12-08T07:43:35Z] <kris_> im guessing theres some sort of standardized structure for this
[2025-12-08T07:43:56Z] <kris_> alright so its literally a garden
[2025-12-08T07:44:11Z] <midfavila> https://www.canadiancattlemen.ca/daily/canadas-harvest-for-victory-in-the-second-world-war/
[2025-12-08T07:44:20Z] <midfavila> no it's literally just a garden
[2025-12-08T07:44:21Z] <midfavila> yeah
[2025-12-08T07:44:22Z] <midfavila> lmao
[2025-12-08T07:44:31Z] <midfavila> but it was a part of wartime public education measures
[2025-12-08T07:44:41Z] <midfavila> because food, cloth, etc were all rationed
[2025-12-08T07:44:51Z] <midfavila> so if you wanted more you had to procure it through non-market means
[2025-12-08T07:44:57Z] <midfavila> or stretch preexisting things
[2025-12-08T07:44:59Z] <kris_> we used quite a bit of what we grew but not all of it
[2025-12-08T07:45:06Z] <kris_> we got a cherry tomato plant and it just shit them out
[2025-12-08T07:45:07Z] <midfavila> 'make do and mend' is also something that came out of it
[2025-12-08T07:45:10Z] <kris_> too many to use for something
[2025-12-08T07:45:41Z] <midfavila> i think some of this also happened in america
[2025-12-08T07:45:56Z] <kris_> there are american history museum exhibits for these i just found
[2025-12-08T07:46:03Z] <kris_> so im guessing so
[2025-12-08T07:46:09Z] <midfavila> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Make_Do_and_Mend
[2025-12-08T07:46:44Z] <kris_> once we move to the new place ill probably start growing some stuff myself
[2025-12-08T07:46:50Z] <kris_> if i lived in a weed legal area i already would be honestly
[2025-12-08T07:47:03Z] <kris_> weed is legal 20 minutes from here but not right where i stand
[2025-12-08T07:47:14Z] <midfavila> tfw freedom
[2025-12-08T07:47:22Z] <midfavila> are you feeling liberated yet
[2025-12-08T07:47:28Z] <kris_> not particularly
[2025-12-08T07:47:43Z] <kris_> weed enables me to sleep, eat, it helps a lot with my chronic migraines and i'm not allowed to have it legally
[2025-12-08T07:48:00Z] <kris_> plus i really like how it feels and what it does to me as a person
[2025-12-08T07:48:16Z] <midfavila> have you considered that marijuana is associated with hippies and hippies with communists
[2025-12-08T07:48:22Z] <kris_> it genuinely pisses me off that alcohol is considered okay and weed isn't
[2025-12-08T07:48:26Z] <midfavila> and thus if you smoke weed you're a commie and therefore anti-american
[2025-12-08T07:48:29Z] <kris_> alcohol turns people into the worst versions of themselves literally 24/7
[2025-12-08T07:48:31Z] <midfavila> hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
[2025-12-08T07:48:31Z] <kris_> literally always
[2025-12-08T07:48:33Z] <kris_> no matter what
[2025-12-08T07:48:39Z] <midfavila> why do you hate america kris
[2025-12-08T07:48:41Z] <kris_> i actively cant stand alcohol and being around drunk people
[2025-12-08T07:48:45Z] <kris_> i guess that makes me anti-american
[2025-12-08T07:49:22Z] <midfavila> off to CECOT
[2025-12-08T07:49:30Z] <kris_> i wouldnt want alcohol to be illegal or anything i just think its cringe that something that horrible is legal but this plant that makes people feel good but doesn't make them annoying dipshits isn't
[2025-12-08T07:49:31Z] <midfavila> ICE will be doing a water check at your home in five minutes
[2025-12-08T07:49:53Z] <kris_> midfavila: i should run for president
[2025-12-08T07:49:56Z] <kris_> acid and weed for all
[2025-12-08T07:50:22Z] <kris_> i view acid and shrooms as rather important for humanity as a whole
[2025-12-08T07:50:28Z] <kris_> that may just be me though
[2025-12-08T07:50:39Z] <kris_> give elon musk a hefty dose of acid and he very well might develop empathy lmao
[2025-12-08T07:52:14Z] <kris_> midfavila: also wdym water check
[2025-12-08T07:52:17Z] <kris_> is this going back to the lithium thing
[2025-12-08T07:53:25Z] <midfavila> 'water check' is a euphemism used by critics of the chinese government for their domestic police doing domestic service checks
[2025-12-08T07:53:39Z] <kris_> ah
[2025-12-08T07:53:50Z] <midfavila> usually with the insinuation that the person having their 'water checked' will be promptly bagged and vanned
[2025-12-08T07:54:08Z] <kris_> mfw we are now bagging and vanning people
[2025-12-08T07:54:12Z] <midfavila> of course, in this regard, america is number 1
[2025-12-08T07:54:30Z] <midfavila> are you tired of winning kris
[2025-12-08T07:54:35Z] <midfavila> there's another 3 years of this at least
[2025-12-08T07:54:40Z] <kris_> dude i meant to tell you
[2025-12-08T07:54:49Z] <kris_> theres this indian dude in my class
[2025-12-08T07:54:55Z] <kris_> meaning like a foreign guy who came here for uni
[2025-12-08T07:55:07Z] <kris_> one of our assignments in my stupid as shit politics class was to "find things we like about the US"
[2025-12-08T07:55:16Z] <kris_> and this guy was yapping about how amazing we are at deporting those damn immigrants
[2025-12-08T07:55:24Z] <kris_> and im just like ....huh
[2025-12-08T07:55:26Z] <midfavila> lmaooooooooooooooo
[2025-12-08T07:56:02Z] <midfavila> unfortunately there are a lot of people who are pick-mes these days
[2025-12-08T07:56:07Z] <kris_> i didnt try to fight him i was more just confused
[2025-12-08T07:56:15Z] <kris_> because its like brother you are fighting to get yourself removed from the premises
[2025-12-08T07:56:18Z] <midfavila> it's just like
[2025-12-08T07:56:24Z] <midfavila> a "i'm not like the others"
[2025-12-08T07:56:28Z] <midfavila> thing
[2025-12-08T07:56:38Z] <midfavila> the same thing is happening here
[2025-12-08T07:57:15Z] <midfavila> there are a lot of new or first generation immigrants who are screeching about how we need to 'remigrate' (guess the subtext there) immigrants to solve whatever the crisis of the day is
[2025-12-08T07:57:19Z] <midfavila> and it's like
[2025-12-08T07:57:19Z] <midfavila> first of all stfu
[2025-12-08T07:57:22Z] <midfavila> second of all
[2025-12-08T07:57:32Z] <midfavila> mfer you still have salt spray in your hair from the boat \
[2025-12-08T07:57:44Z] <midfavila> you're advocating for yourself to be kicked out
[2025-12-08T07:57:46Z] <midfavila> please stop
[2025-12-08T07:57:53Z] <kris_> that was really a curveball
[2025-12-08T07:58:05Z] <kris_> i literally just said "interesting"
[2025-12-08T07:58:09Z] <kris_> and nothing else
[2025-12-08T07:58:14Z] <kris_> tldr this guy was in my group to discuss this
[2025-12-08T07:58:47Z] <kris_> the rest of the massive indian immigrant population at my uni are all unbelievably happy to be here 
[2025-12-08T07:58:50Z] <kris_> comapred to their country
[2025-12-08T08:00:42Z] <midfavila> yeah i mean as fucked as america is it's still got a lot of advantages compared to other plaes
[2025-12-08T08:00:45Z] <midfavila> places
[2025-12-08T08:00:51Z] <midfavila> like that's just self evident
[2025-12-08T08:00:59Z] <kris_> idk ive spoken to a lot of them and i really feel bad for them
[2025-12-08T08:01:12Z] <midfavila> same with canada. as much as i hate it here there are places that are worse
[2025-12-08T08:01:17Z] <kris_> some of them are women and they're talking about how its crazy they're able to talk to me while being married without being judged or potentially worse
[2025-12-08T08:01:24Z] <kris_> and im just sitting here like >wtf
[2025-12-08T08:01:25Z] <midfavila> yeahhh
[2025-12-08T08:01:30Z] <midfavila> some of the regions of india have uh
[2025-12-08T08:01:39Z] <midfavila> *interesting* opinions on the role of women in society
[2025-12-08T08:02:12Z] <kris_> some regions of the US have interesting takes on the same shit tbh
[2025-12-08T08:02:20Z] <kris_> where i'm from, tradwife is expected
[2025-12-08T08:02:24Z] <midfavila> >in the south
[2025-12-08T08:02:32Z] <midfavila> opinion discarded
[2025-12-08T08:02:34Z] <midfavila> tbh
[2025-12-08T08:02:42Z] <kris_> there are good things about where i'm from
[2025-12-08T08:02:44Z] <kris_> as well
[2025-12-08T08:02:55Z] <kris_> id rather be there than here
[2025-12-08T08:03:27Z] <midfavila> fair
[2025-12-08T08:03:30Z] <midfavila> i miss my old city a lot
[2025-12-08T08:03:37Z] <midfavila> literally the second i leave they start being insanely based
[2025-12-08T08:03:41Z] <kris_> and honestly the tradwife thing completely died with my generation there
[2025-12-08T08:03:45Z] <kris_> absolutely none of us respected that
[2025-12-08T08:03:46Z] <midfavila> >build a bunch of protected bike infra
[2025-12-08T08:03:50Z] <midfavila> >raise the palestinian flag
[2025-12-08T08:03:57Z] <kris_> so give it like 60 years and that wont exist at my home base
[2025-12-08T08:04:00Z] <midfavila> >relax some zoning so you can build tiny homes
[2025-12-08T08:04:07Z] <kris_> were there jobs there
[2025-12-08T08:04:13Z] <midfavila> lmao no that's why i left
[2025-12-08T08:04:23Z] <kris_> a discordfren of mine lives in newfoundland and does like photo booth stuff of some sort for work
[2025-12-08T08:04:24Z] <midfavila> it was either gtfo of my flat or gtfo of the province
[2025-12-08T08:04:28Z] <kris_> she's based, she also does like
[2025-12-08T08:04:34Z] <kris_> she has a huge print farm in her house and sells 3d printed stuff
[2025-12-08T08:04:48Z] <midfavila> new brunswick is the poorest part of canada and basically always has been
[2025-12-08T08:04:48Z] <midfavila> so
[2025-12-08T08:05:22Z] <kris_> ive been concocting ways to make money in my mind for the past little bit
[2025-12-08T08:05:30Z] <kris_> and i really can't think of anything that doesnt involve being a bit of a stinker
[2025-12-08T08:05:36Z] <kris_> i refuse the idea that that's my fault though
[2025-12-08T08:06:09Z] <midfavila> as long as you aren't a cop or in the military
[2025-12-08T08:06:46Z] <kris_> lol no mid im not going to be a cop
[2025-12-08T08:06:49Z] <kris_> or in the military
[2025-12-08T08:07:02Z] <kris_> i mean more like online black market activities
[2025-12-08T08:07:33Z] <kris_> or i could do this the lawful good way and bring back up my old minecraft network now that people can actually donate to me
[2025-12-08T08:07:33Z] <midfavila> yeah your super illegal minecraft hax
[2025-12-08T08:07:35Z] <midfavila> lmfao
[2025-12-08T08:07:40Z] <kris_> i have other ideas as well.
[2025-12-08T08:07:50Z] <kris_> but my old minecraft network was cool
[2025-12-08T08:07:59Z] <kris_> i was a kid and within a few weeks ended up with 40+ concurrent players on my stuff
[2025-12-08T08:08:04Z] <kris_> like under a month and it blew up because of how i ran it
[2025-12-08T08:08:14Z] <kris_> and then i burned out and decided to ranomly take it all down and vanish
[2025-12-08T08:08:36Z] <kris_> at that point in time i had people offering to donate me money for new server hardware and shit but i was <18 and couldnt accept money and my mom wouldnt set up anything on my behalf
[2025-12-08T08:08:41Z] <kris_> looking back im wishing i would have just set up a monero wallet
[2025-12-08T08:10:07Z] <kris_> the problem with this is the initial cost until if/when people start donating enough to at least break even
[2025-12-08T08:10:20Z] <kris_> infrastructure to run something like that (like literally 1 vps) is kind of expensive
[2025-12-08T08:10:47Z] <kris_> giving when you're hosting massive forge packs you kinda want 12-16gb of ram on the machine you host it on
[2025-12-08T08:19:54Z] <kris_> midfavila: but no im not going to break any laws, and im definitely not going to be a cop
[2025-12-08T08:20:07Z] <kris_> i think its more american culture baked into me telling me this stuff is bad
[2025-12-08T17:49:51Z] <sewn> moew
[2025-12-08T17:50:51Z] <midfavila> hi sewn
[2025-12-08T18:21:55Z] <sewn> hi middie
