I can tell you, they’re not very good waffles. It was a funny interaction ordering it though.

So, I’m other words, nothing I can do as a single citizen. Even as a collective, without buy in from someone with power there isn’t much we can do.
- Comment on Trump doesn't care about American's, only himself and insider trading 5 days ago:
What specifically can I do as a citizen?
- Comment on Choose wisely 5 days ago:
Every job requires some level of contacts. The idea of a meritocracy is a farse. That said, I wouldn’t have that specific trade would be a job that is in high demand anyway. This is something that the US just doesn’t do well as we’ve leaned on China way too hard for factory work. That’s my completely ignorant viewpoint though since I don’t actually work in that field.

If you want to modify the already flakey at times driver.
- Comment on Trump doesn't care about American's, only himself and insider trading 5 days ago:
Yeah, we all see it and know it. We just can’t do anything about it.

These days, you might be better served going to a trade school and learning a trade like plumbing, electrician, carpenter, etc… Millenials were pushed hard into college and there aren’t enough people in the trades now. They get paid well and are relatively easy to run your own business if that interests you.
- Comment on Home server advice 5 days ago:
If power consumption and media server are your goals, an Intel CPU is what you want. Intel with quicksync is the most power efficient way to transcode video. Your GTX960 could do it, but will use more power, be limited to fewer codec types, and be limited to 2 streams.

- Comment on What are the advantages/disadvantages of the different backup solutions? 1 week ago:
Well, this looks really cool. Thanks
- Comment on What are the advantages/disadvantages of the different backup solutions? 1 week ago:
I use borg with borgmatic. Heck, if you’re using Nextcloud AIO, borg is built in. It uses rsync, and takes incremental, deduplicated backups. I like it because it’s mostly just setting up ssh and a config file.
More specifically I use Nextcloud’s built in borg and these two containers:
- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 1 week ago:
Not true. The single greatest thing you can do to have a lower carbon footprint is to not have any children.

Yeah, exactly why I think suggested routines would be nice. Break things into push/pull days, etc…
- Comment on GitHub - Snouzy/workout-cool: 🏋 Modern open-source fitness coaching platform. 1 week ago:
That’s pretty close.
- Comment on GitHub - Snouzy/workout-cool: 🏋 Modern open-source fitness coaching platform. 1 week ago:
There’s only a very limited set of exercises. It’s not rocket science
Correct, but being able to programmatically make the recommendation is computer science.
- Comment on GitHub - Snouzy/workout-cool: 🏋 Modern open-source fitness coaching platform. 1 week ago:
I never really thought of self hosting something like this. Does it have the ability to recommend routines for you? It would be cool to be able to give it a list of equipment, maybe a schedule, and have it recommend workouts you can do to effectively use your time.
- Comment on Windows seemingly lost 400 million users in the past three years — official Microsoft statements show hints of a shrinking user base 2 weeks ago:
You’re allowed to be wrong. The fact is if they continued doing what they were doing they would be almost entirely irrelevant today.
- Comment on Windows seemingly lost 400 million users in the past three years — official Microsoft statements show hints of a shrinking user base 2 weeks ago:
And that CEO completely turned the company around. Microsoft was circling the drain before they changed strategies.

They pay for that AI from Open AI though. It’s not pure profit for them.
- Comment on Windows seemingly lost 400 million users in the past three years — official Microsoft statements show hints of a shrinking user base 2 weeks ago:
1/3 of its Windows customers, not of all of its customers. I bet they still make plenty of money with Azure and Office 365.

You’re thinking of Clinton era neo liberals that are still in power.
- Comment on Tesla's European car sales nosedive for fifth month as customers switch to Chinese EVs 3 weeks ago:
I think it would be silly to assume Ford isn’t updating the Mach E as it continues to produce it.
- Comment on Tesla's European car sales nosedive for fifth month as customers switch to Chinese EVs 3 weeks ago:
The Ford Mach E is a good EV.
- Comment on Fairphone announces the €599 Fairphone 6, with a 6.31" 120Hz LTPO OLED display, a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, and enhanced modularity with 12 swappable parts 3 weeks ago:
Because the built in software is usually there because the manufacturer is receiving money from the software company. That’s why consumer devices are always bloated with garbage.
- Comment on VPN server on router or within home network? 4 weeks ago:
You can get 4 if you make them 1 core each.
- Comment on VPN server on router or within home network? 4 weeks ago:
Okay, it’s been a while since I first heard of it. I misremembered. So, it would be cool to have a vps with Headscale and Pangolin.
- Comment on VPN server on router or within home network? 4 weeks ago:
Yeah… I know it’s insane. But they give you 4 arm cores, 24GB RAM, 200GB of storage in their always free tier.
- Comment on VPN server on router or within home network? 4 weeks ago:
Oh, I must have completely misunderstood what Pangolin is for. Thanks for the info.
- Comment on VPN server on router or within home network? 4 weeks ago:
I don’t understand, each compute unit gets their own IP right?
- Comment on VPN server on router or within home network? 4 weeks ago:
I believe Pangolin is also using Wireguard. Pangolin is basically a self hosted Tailscale. I think the biggest advantage is the ease of management, but I’ve never used Pangolin or Tailscale so I couldn’t really tell you.
