9 is my setup but I don’t gis on my computer, it’s just my home office setup

Ahh, a man of culture

The shortest unit of time in the multiverse is the New York Second, defined as the period of time between the traffic lights turning green and the cab behind you honking.

Wait, I thought everyone played “Gun fire or fireworks” 🤔

“There were a large number of ranks in the armies of the Empire and many of them were untranslatable. Three Pink Pig and Five White Fang were, loosely speaking, privates, and not just because they were pale, vulnerable and inclined to curl up and hide when danger threatened.”

You are aware that you are breathing

You are aware that you haven’t blinked yet

That spot is itchy again

“If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying ‘End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH’, the paint wouldn’t even have time to dry”

I bought a two bay Synology for $270, and a 20TB hdd for $260. I did this for multiple reasons. The HDD was on sale so I bought it and kept buying things. Also I couldn’t be buggered to learn everything necessary to set up a homemade NAS. Also also i didn’t have an old PC. My current PC is a Ship of Theseus that I originally bought in 2006.

You’re not wrong about an equivalent NAS to my current pc specs/capacity being more expensive. And yes i did spend $500+ on my NAS And yet I also saved several days worth of study, research, and trial and error by not building my own.

That being said, reducing e-waste by converting old PCs into Jellyfin/Plex streaming machines, NAS devices, or personal servers is a really good idea

Oh my fault it sounded like you were only there for a few more days based on other comments you made, sorry I misunderstood.

Would your neighbor be willing to set up the trail cam when it comes? Otherwise this seems like something that’ll have to wait till you’re back home. As others suggested, waiting in the bushes is a recipe for misery.

If you’re dead set on catching the person, start logging (ha ha! log) the days it happens. Once you narrow down the pattern try waking up every couple hours to see if they left a fresh one, then you have a future stakeout time. Once you have the pattern and time window, grab a friend, a couple clubs, and when you catch them, persuade them with reason, logic, and threats of violence

You’re in a developing country (I’m a pedant and third world means not allied with the US or the USSR, which doesn’t exist anymore). You’re on vacation. You won’t be there much longer. Leave an envelope with $20 in it and a note that says “Stop shitting here and have this with our blessing. Shit here again and we will follow you, take the money, and beat you. We are watching”

Or don’t. Whatever. You’re not there long enough to receive a package from Amazon, so why stress about it? A street sitter has a lot more problems in life than someone who can go on vacation. Their continued existence is probably it’s own punishment

Oh here’s an idea.

1. Cover the pile with sand/Kitty litter.
2. Get a little flag of the local football team, or whatever the local favorite is, and plant it in the sandy shit pile.
3. ???
4. Profit.

Ah, yes, I too read The Bikini Bottom Horror

I stared at this for longer than I’d like to admit before realizing the joke.

If course I then stared some more

Brewster’s Thousands

So you agree that it’s pronounced gif.

I win

It’s pronounced gif
