It is exactly what happened with the settlement of native american lands in the US. Settlers move into land given by treaty to the Indians, when trouble occurs the military is sent in and the Indians are inevitably ejected from their lands.

To quote Carl Sagan, “We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.”

Heads Up on your phone is good. We play it with the fam on the holidays. You hold the phone facing away from you with the answer and your teammates give you clues.

I will never forget the joys of the playing Half-Life 1 on max settings with my Diamond Monster3D Voodoo2.

I found happiness. I am almost done with it. You want it after me?

This is good advice. Keep the conversation short, formal and boring. Bring up the weather as a signal there is little of interest in the conversation. When you are ready to disengage say “I will let you get back to your work now”

You should name it Hawk, so people can call it Hawk-Tui.

Infinite Jest - just the part about video conferencing is wild and is even mire wild when you realize it was written in the 90’s before video conferencing really existed:

“Good old traditional audio-only phone conversations allowed you to presume that the person on the other end was paying complete attention to you while also permitting you not to have to pay anything even close to complete attention to her. A traditional aural-only conversation […] let you enter a kind of highway-hypnotic semi-attentive fugue: while conversing, you could look around the room, doodle, fine-groom, peel tiny bits of dead skin away from your cuticles, compose phone-pad haiku, stir things on the stove; you could even carry on a whole separate additional sign-language-and-exaggerated-facial-expression type of conversation with people right there in the room with you, all while seeming to be right there attending closely to the voice on the phone. And yet — and this was the retrospectively marvelous part — even as you were dividing your attention between the phone call and all sorts of other idle little fuguelike activities, you were somehow never haunted by the suspicion that the person on the other end’s attention might be similarly divided.”

It is a good Cyber-thriller.

I run Emby and MythTV on a Beelink Mini PC. It is a little pricey compared to some of the options you mentioned but not by too much. It works really well and is very quiet:

Cloudflare has a bot score. Depending on how sus your bot score is you can use several different levels of verification. The checkbox you refer to is kind of in the middle. There is also a more complicated intrusive captcha and a totally transparent javascript. It’s a pretty slick system.

I had an Impala that I named Vlad, so it was “Vlad the Impala”.
