- Comment on flouride 1 month ago:
The question is: does it make sense to buy toothpaste with fluoride then or can I buy one without? Just because my kids don’t like the peppermint ones and other flavours are most of the times without fluoride

Apologies, I didn’t mean it as “duh, just download it, stupid, hur hur” to you personally. It was more an opportunity to raise awareness of those tools. (Pretty sure they are well known but it never hurts)
Shiver me timbers!

I’m with you. It was amazing at the time, but as you said it was a product of the time. Some things I watched when I was a kid now I’m a bit wary of letting my kids watch now!

- Comment on Any tips for setting up a Mac? A 15+ years Linux user needs help 1 month ago:
You could always dual boot on Linux 😁
You could try with homebrew to install some software, but the apple ID I’m afraid is a requirement. Use company email with company phone number.

Yeah, use a company phone

That’s worse. So much worse. “I won’t kill you but you’ll wish I did”
- Comment on Anyone use Retropie? Two buttons won't map. 2 months ago:
I suspect it’s the latter because with my (chinese knock off) xbox360 controller I can map all of them.
What if you install retropie or mame on your pc and try to map it here? Maybe it’s a driver issue
- Comment on How do you use only ipv6 server? 2 months ago:
First questio is: can you ask your home internet provider for ipv6?
Otherwise sign up to tailscale and connect your vps server (and your pc/devices) to it.

- Comment on Smart TVs take snapshots of what you watch multiple times per second 3 months ago:
Uh interesting. That’s even fancier than I need, I don’t have the space for more than 48" or 50" I think. Thank you a lot for the tip!
- Comment on Smart TVs take snapshots of what you watch multiple times per second 3 months ago:
The problem is that usually picture quality is not the same.
- Comment on Smart TVs take snapshots of what you watch multiple times per second 3 months ago:
If there were big monitors with the same color quality and in the same price range I’d do it. But usually large monitors are for signage.
At least that’s what I’ve found.
- Comment on Keep Tier-One Applications Out of Virtual Environments 3 months ago:
That article is SO wrong. You don’t run one instance of a tier1 application. And they are on separate DCs, on separate networks, and the firewall rules allow only for application traffic. Management (rdp/ssh) is from another network, through bastion servers. At the very least you have daily/monthly/yearly (yes, yearly) backups. And you take snapshots before patching/app upgrades. Or you even move to containers, with bare hypervisors deployed in minutes via netinstall, configured via ansible. You got infected? Too bad, reinstall and redeploy. There will be downtime but not horrible. The DBs/storage are another matter of course, but that’s why you have synchronous and asynchronous replicas, read only replicas, offsites, etc. But for the love of what you have dear, don’t run stuff on bare metal because “what if the hypervisor gets infected”. Consider the attack vector and work around that.
- Comment on Virgin Media Warns UK Broadband Users Not to Switch Routers Off at Night - ISPreview UK 3 months ago:
you don’t need to know how the ISP network works, you only need some networking concepts. Subnets/addressing and very basic routing (for a basic setup). You won’t even need firewall rules if you don’t host anything at your place (that needs to be accessed from outside)
- Comment on Mini PC for Jellyfin 3 months ago:
the question is: why do you want to move on from the Rpi4? Also, how do you plan to handle video decoding 0f x265/av1 streams? Do those miniPCs have a video card with hardware transcoding capabilities? If you plan to do it on software (i.e. CPU transcoding) the CPUs will run hot most of the time.
