@timbray@cosocial.caTFW you notice that your Synology-local-backup to cloud-backup hasn't been working since you moved in October 2024 because you’d stupidly hardwired the Synology DNS to the former residence’s now-wrong 192.168. Would have been sad if the house burned down. Would have been nice if the Synology had complained.
Discovered this in the course of a search for a non-US (ideally Canadian) Synology-friendly cloud backup. Promising: eazyBackup and ionos.ca HiDrive.

Consistent downward trend in both, the relative pause in the middle of the TPFR decline is associated with large net in-migration (including of young women) during the Celtic Tiger.

@inthehands@hachyderm.ioAmy Klobuchar couldn’t get a majority of the DFL straw poll vote in South Minneapolis — a measly 30% — and she is •running unopposed•.
Shades of 2024 when a strong “uncommitted” primary vote for unopposed Biden presaged electoral disaster.
Minnesotans, use this to light a fire under her. Harangue her office. And hey…maybe field a primary opponent. Freak her campaign and the State DFL the absolute fuck out.
It’s a win if we get a better nominee •or• if we get her to show a little more fight again ICE and Trump.
