- Comment on Netflix mulls introducing free ad-supported tier. The circle is complete 3 days ago:
I wish they wouldn’t do that. If i have to hear about Southern New Hampshire University again I’m gonna hurt somebody.
If I agree to free thing and have to watch ads, aight fine.
But at least make them different man, i hate that they play the same one over and over again. It does not make me want to buy your product.
- Comment on Shopping app Temu is “dangerous malware,” spying on your texts, lawsuit claims 3 days ago:
Shocked i tell you. I am shocked.
No way an app would collect data it doesnt need. Preposterous.
Next thing you’ll tell me is that tiktok is doing the same thing!
- Comment on I bet he does. 1 week ago:
From what I can see just from a quick google, its in reference to a tiktok.
“What’s one move in bed that makes a man go crazy every time?”
One of the women immediately answered in her Southern accent and laughed:
"Oh, you gotta give him that 'hawk tuah' and spit on that thing, you get me?"
- Comment on Google has an idea to prevent phone scams, but it'll mean allowing its AI to listen in on your calls 1 month ago:
If they leave a voicemail then its more legit but yea same here. I’d rather not have my phone calls be used as AI training.

88 x 8TB drives? 704 TB of storage?
You got a whole damn data center lol. Good stuff dude. Was this off of ebay or direct from a company? I’m curious to know the total cost.

- Comment on Can you live a fulfilling life with autism? 3 months ago:
I know 3 different people that are on the spectrum and while they do experience life differently and face different and or unique challenges, yes, absolutely you can live a normal fulfilling life.
Like with any mental health condition, it can make things that are everyday or normal for most folks more difficult so its important to not only seek guidance from a mental health professional but also have a good support structure. People you can count on to help you when you need it.
Everyone is a little different of course so finding the right fit for each can be kinda hard but all 3 people i know are happy, healthy, and are living a good life.
Everyone is weird anyways. I know plenty of neruotypical people that do weird stuff. Humans are weird by nature so what “normal” is to one person might be “weird” to another.
- Comment on Enterprise SAS SSD are just built different... two layers, and takes up all the space it can. 4 months ago:
Fair point. My company keeps drives that get taken out of servers for office use. After that theyre recycled.
- Comment on Enterprise SAS SSD are just built different... two layers, and takes up all the space it can. 4 months ago:
Damn thats cool! My work doesnt let me take drives old drives. Though we dont use sas drives so that might be why.
I certainly dont mind used drives for mass storage. I was planning to do some kinda raid anyways.
I haven’t gotten any kind of nas setup yet. Trying to avoid buying too much lol but good to know other folks are using sas drives too.
- Comment on Enterprise SAS SSD are just built different... two layers, and takes up all the space it can. 4 months ago:
No use for them you say 🤔
I was actually just looking at buying some sas spinning drives for a nas. Found a seller on Amazon thats unfortunately gone before i could buy em but it was a pretty good deal. Where do you buy yours from?
- Comment on Review: Framework’s Laptop 16 is unique, laudable, fascinating, and flawed 4 months ago:
Agreed. Thin and light would be great if they offered any kind of reparability but framework is still new. The fact the company is doing well at all is pretty impressive imo.
I planed on getting one but atm i dont think i can justify it.
How do you like it? You running Windows or Linux?
- Comment on Review: Framework’s Laptop 16 is unique, laudable, fascinating, and flawed 4 months ago:
it’s nearly two pounds heavier, 3 inches wider, and 1.5 inches deeper. Adding the graphics module adds another two-thirds of a pound and almost an inch of extra depth.
Ill take that over non upgradable and more importantly no repairable laptop that becomes e waste.
- Comment on Exposing Myself (with Filebrowser) 5 months ago:
ATnT should be able to tell you for sure. I remember reading about another person facing a cgnat using ATnT on reddit while i still went there so it very well could be.
And fairly easy setup yea. I did mine using a windows pc for testing as i was kinda in between places at the time and thats what i ended up using for jellyfin as well. Just lives on my media pc at the moment. The docs are pretty straight forward.
I recommend that or zero tier which is even more dead simple. Both are good but cloudflare does care about how much bandwidth you’re using so just bear that in mind if you think you’ll use the server for anything else.
Both are vpn tunnels so either should work just fine.
developers.cloudflare.com/…/connect-networks/
Self hosting can get pretty overwhelming but i find that using docs in addition to youtube videos helps a lot. I also recommend giving Linux a go when you feel up to it. It can be a very nice option if you’re working with older hardware.
- Comment on Exposing Myself (with Filebrowser) 5 months ago:
I’m not super familiar with docker so im sorry im not much help there but i noticed that you mentioned a ATnT router. Are you using them as an Internet provider?
If so, you might have a carrier grade nat which makes reverse proxy like this not possible even if you do get caddy server working. I had a similar situation with my jellyfin server.
I had caddy server working but when i moved and started using a mobile internet provider, i had to use a vpn tunnel like cloudflare or zerotier to get around it.
All this to say, id recommend finding that out so if that is the case you dont spend anymore time on caddy.
Good luck either way.
- Comment on What can I do with an old laptop? 5 months ago:
The more you know! Do you know any guides that go over this? I’d be interested in setting this up.
- Comment on What can I do with an old laptop? 5 months ago:
That i can’t say. Id imagine no at least on android.
If you dont mind the extra setup, cloudflare tunnels are awesome. developers.cloudflare.com/…/connect-networks/
I prefer this over tailscale as i dont want to have an app i need to access my server.
- Comment on What can I do with an old laptop? 5 months ago:
I started off with pi hole when i started messing around with an old laptop for self hosting. My advice is setup what you think is useful.
To access the server outside your home, tailscale is a great option. Fairly simple to setup especially if its just you accessing the server.
Reverse proxy would be best if you intend to let others acess your servers services often or if you dont wanna mess with tunnels. I settled on cloudflare tunnels because i didn’t want another thing to turn on to acess my server outside my house.
When I didn’t have a carrier grade nat to deal with, i used caddy server for automatically getting ssl certs from lets encrypt and reverse proxy all in one. I really liked that once i got it setup.
- Comment on Epic win: Jury decides Google has illegal monopoly in app store fight 6 months ago:
“It’s a historic victory, particularly because Epic mostly lost its fight against Apple two years ago when Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers decided that fight had nothing to do with apps.
But Epic v. Google turned out to be a very different case. It hinged on secret revenue sharing deals between Google, smartphone makers, and big game developers, ones that Google execs internally believed were designed to keep rival app stores down. It showed that Google was running scared of Epic specifically. And it was all decided by a jury, unlike the Apple ruling.”
- Comment on Amazon exec says it’s time for workers to ‘disagree and commit’ to office return — “I don’t have data to back it up, but I know it’s better.” 6 months ago:
Fair point, to be quite honest it took me a while to even find those two sites. There may be better sources available but i also use duckduckgo for searching so ymmv.
But I absolutely agree with you. I do hybrid remote with my company and it not only saves me time but improves my quality of life significantly even only at 2 days a week.
And thats just what’s normally available as i can request to work from home under special circumstances like when my cat was sick and i wanted to be around to make sure he was alright.
Work from home should be available to everyone it can possibly apply to like office work, programming, call center, etc in my opinion.

My dude they didn’t even teach me typing let alone cursive. They tried but my handwriting is trash to begin with.
And my only knowledge of Shakespeare came from drama class which real talk kinda thankful for because i found out real quick i do not care fo Shakespeare lol
- Comment on I hate getting up early. 6 months ago:
Now that i get paid and dont hate my life i dont mind getting up early. Not ideal but yay money.
My education was a fucking joke and all the people who said that I’d miss highschool are wrong. Highschool and school in general was awful and i was very checked out for a large majority of it.

Does anyone else kinda like being tech support for friends and family?
Idk maybe its just me but I like helping them even when it is kinda frustrating. Its satisfying to fix an issue and I like making them happy.

I supoose that is a drawback if you want to view content in 4k. 1080p still being the standard is good enough for me but i do see your point.

I do understand the appeal but as a power user i just like having control. Last i used a fire stick it was slow and annoying to use but things may have changed since then.
Me personally i find a pc for streaming and whatever else i wanna do just makes more sense but to each thier own.
