shame if smth happened to it...

What shitty way to discourage people from interacting with those legitimately in need

For those unfamiliar the Dune series, the Butlerian Jihad was a crusade against “thinking machines”. Ultimately computers, and intelligent or thinking machines, even down to calculators are destroyed and banned. Humans who are trained in complex mental maths become known as Mentats, a sort of human computer. Just, uhh, leave all that shit on Bene Tleilax, with their Axalotl Tanks out of it.

Edit: had wrong planet name. IX -> Bene Tleilax

Hi everyone! 👋

I’m looking for contributors to help grow this project—if you’re interested in collaborating, reviewing code, or adding features, feel free to jump in!

I built NAS Monitor because the native Ugreen UI isn't the most efficient when you just want a quick, real-time overview of your system.

Full disclosure: I built this entirely with the help of AI! It’s been a fascinating experiment, but now I'd love to get some real human developers on board to help refine it.

What it does: It’s a simple, self-hosted dashboard that runs via Docker. It gives you a clean look at your: CPU & RAM usage Disk health Network traffic (without all the extra clicks!)

🛠 Bonus for Devs (API Docs): Since Ugreen doesn't have an official API, I managed to reverse-engineer their internal one (with AI assistance) and included the complete API documentation in the repository. If you're looking to build your own tools for Ugreen NASync devices, this should save you a lot of time!

Either the world is ending or Chuck Norris tried to self harm. There's no other explanation.

Rising gasoline prices are already starting to bite U.S. household ​finances and Americans overwhelmingly expect fuel costs will keep climbing as Donald Trump's war with Iran crimps ‌global oil supplies, a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found.

Some 55% of respondents in the Tuesday-through-Thursday poll said their household finances had taken at least "somewhat" of a hit from the increases in gas prices. Among those seeing an impact, 21% said their finances were affected "a great deal."

The average price of gasoline ​in America has surged by nearly a dollar per gallon since February 28 when the U.S. and Israel ​attacked Iran, prompting Iranian counterstrikes on the energy installations of U.S. allies and the effective closure ⁠by Iran of the Strait of Hormuz, which carries one-fifth of the global oil supply.

The economic risk is so dire ​that the Trump administration has mulled deploying thousands of additional U.S. troops to ensure safe passage of oil tankers through the ​strait, an endeavor some officials have warned might require deploying U.S. troops to Iran's shoreline.

Many respondents believe the US economy is already in dire straits, the poll found

More than four in 10 Americans believe the country is heading toward a complete economic meltdown within the next decade, according to a new poll.

The survey, released by YouGov on Wednesday, shows Americans are more worried about the economy than potential threats to the democratic system or the prospect of civil war.

42% of respondents said it is very or somewhat likely that there will be “a total economic collapse” in the next 10 years, while a smaller share, 38%, described this outcome as unlikely.

Financial anxiety ran much higher among Democrats, 53% of whom feared an economic breakdown, compared with just 28% of Republicans.
