They’re reactionaries that think their VPN to the Houses of Parliament is some magical thing that they can monetize and control.
And they can fuck off.
- Comment on Steam users in the UK will need a credit card to access “mature content” games 6 days ago:
Indeed.
Reminds me of the
Android MarketPlay Store and not being able to use PayPal back yonder and having to use a throwaway top-up, debit card if you wanted to buy apps. Ewww. - Comment on Looking for an RSS aggregator/summarizer/maybe-LLM thing 1 week ago:

Yeah I was gonna say, Plex has a terrible UI is why I stay the way away from that crap.
Jellyseerr thou is something even my less than tech savvy peeps I know just punch stuff into and making the Telegram channel make noises. I should really turn those notifications off.

tldr: searches metadata websites for movies and TV shows, and then adds thing to Jellyfin.
You can even then tell your *arrrr stack to report things that succeed/fail

Yup.

Didn’t stop me, either.
In fact, Jellyseerr is a game changer.

- Comment on TrueNAS 25.10 Begins Testing With Faster Performance, 400GbE Networking 2 weeks ago:
Depends on your future proofing.
I’ve got a box with two 2.5GbE ethernet ports incoming, but it only takes one 1GbE or 100 Mbps device before that to bottleneck it.
- Comment on TrueNAS 25.10 Begins Testing With Faster Performance, 400GbE Networking 2 weeks ago:
Looks at 1GbE bottleneck.

You only have to watch a couple of YouTube live streams…wait. Tomorrow I wait for age gating to see if Google is that…nefarious in stopping .e watching YTP vids
- Comment on Reddit will block the Internet Archive 3 weeks ago:
I wanna see if YouTube is that stupid they send my 18+ year old YT account an age verification check. April 2007 feels like a long time ago…
Dumping YT / gMaps / Google SSO etc and replacing them bit by bit is a hard vice to break, but I’ve got others using self hosted shit now (yay Immich and Jellyseerr arr…) and I’ll keep on doing it for others too.

- Comment on UK pornography taskforce to propose banning ‘barely legal’ content after Channel 4 documentary airs 4 weeks ago:
Obviously there’s not as many seeds for torrents as there is on the Clearnet, but recent uploads saw me getting reasonably decent speeds while some of the older torrents can take some time or be dead…just like the ones on the Clearnet.
There is something that while it doesn’t affect me here in the UK (yet…) there are issues with connectivity in certain dictatorships listed on their site
geti2p.net/en/about/restrictive-countries
Try it out, there’s even an Android app which I never really used and only have i2p on my server at home. Reading the reviews it seems to be hit and miss on a phone, and I should really give it a try sometime.
- Comment on UK pornography taskforce to propose banning ‘barely legal’ content after Channel 4 documentary airs 4 weeks ago:
Nah, you run it over your existing ISP connection but set up an “i2p router” on a PC / laptop / server to connect to others on the i2p network.
Here’s a vid on some discussion about what it is

Have fun!
- Comment on UK pornography taskforce to propose banning ‘barely legal’ content after Channel 4 documentary airs 4 weeks ago:
get a vpn
I think it’s even more important to pipe up about i2p
If we’re making it more our own again, and harder for them to understand it we then as people regain our Internet.
They wanna play whack a mole with millions bring it on 😅

Because it’s client side it’s gucci, but has anyone tried these UBO rules with other apps such as weddit or other sites employing KWS?
And, is this gonna be another Consent to Cookies bollocks?

Pretty old since I haven’t nuked it yet, but I’m not even signed in above as you can see from the above screenshot
I should really login sometime to see if I have lots of threats from mister greedy Spez piggy again, but the headline here doesn’t match up to me trying it in the UK rn.

War, in France 🤔

Em, no? It’s not safe in most parts of the UK and what we need is the police and councils enforcing them not some nutjobs who thinks there’s a war in France right now.
- Comment on Jellyfin over the internet 2 months ago:
The way I do it for a family member with Tailscale is them having a couple of boxes down there (n100 with their Jellyfin server, and a RPI4 with a TVHServer) with my Tailnet signed in, and those boxes running both a “subnet router” and an "exit node"that both me and said fam member can use.
This means she has permissions to use the exit node wherever like I do to my own local LAN, to connect to her LAN and access things locally since you can assign them via the ACL’s / device perms.
I know reading docs can suck sometimes but honest to god the ones that Tailscale put up are pretty awesome.
Along with all the YT videos about it I didn’t even have to go nagging on forums to get it to work, and that’s a general first for me.

- Comment on Access homeserver through VPN + route traffic with mullvad? 2 months ago:
Yeah,UK here and a couple of times I get errors about not being able to connect to the relay server in London + Amsterdam
But I’ve to ask. Have you setup the Tailnet with this fix for IP Forwarding on a subnet router (this helps me so much for tech support on said Tailnet…) and also UDP

I’m currently on my phone but I recall having to ensure the Mini PC w/Ubuntu down at their house had both the above when bringing Tailscale,
up. - Comment on Access homeserver through VPN + route traffic with mullvad? 2 months ago:
Even when it works it’s much slower to connect to my server than VPN.
I wonder why.
Wireguard / TS runs faster than VPN’s, and even my family member has had a couple of devices on my Tailnet down at their place for a couple of years now, and they haven’t a clue how it works and fully believe I’m a magician.
Any background on your connection/location/devices etc?
