  Congrats on the setup. Is that proxmox I see in the background?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨important⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well I hope “Mary” brought enough drugs for everyone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨IRS to furlough nearly half its workforce due to government shutdown⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like you could make the case that for every day the government is shut down, you could deduct 1/364 of your taxable income. I’m no bird lawyer, though.

  +1 for FreshRSS, I’ve only been using it for about six months but I’m constantly tweaking my config just because I like to play around with it.

  Who’s got 1 thumb and is bad at taming alligators?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jeebuz Rode A Velocirapture⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I doubt it’s that high. They surveyed 1000 people over a decade ago to extrapolate that:

  The poll surveyed 1000 adult Americans between June 15 and June 17, 2015, apparently on-line; the margin of error reported was plus/minus 4.4%. Further details of the polling methodology are not readily apparent.

  This is my nightmare. I would immediately self-immolate.

  This is a violation of the Geneva Convention. 🤢

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨rise my minions, RISE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I also got a bag of ladybugs this summer to control aphids on my cherry tree, but they didn’t stick around. Idk if I applied them too late or the birds got them but we didn’t get any cherries because of the aphids. I’m going to try again next year with more bags of them and earlier in the season.

  100% of people who breathe this die.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In court filing, Google concedes the open web is in “rapid decline”⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Google is cannibalizing themselves. No surprise the ads don’t generate the revenue they used to when they took away the reason to view them in the first place.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨sudo-rs Is Now The Default sudo Of Ubuntu 25.10⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was curious how this stacks up against the standard sudo. This is from their GitHub:

  !Differences from original sudo sudo-rs supports less functionality than sudo. Some of this is by design. In most cases you will get a clear error if you try something that is not supported (e.g. use a configuration flag or command line option that is not implemented).!<

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thank G*d I grew up in the 90s. Everything is woke now. Smh my head⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Idk, I think it’s lupus.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's an impressive drop. Any ideas why?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I came to the same conclusion. I don’t doubt that sex is on the decline but whatever data this “Family Studies” collected to graph this is dubious at best. I think I saw a sample size of 2,000, but knowing this has some religious angle, they probably polled at church or something and are only interested in the procreation of the “right” people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pentagon Warns Microsoft: Company’s Use of China-Based Engineers Was a “Breach of Trust”⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Totally agree, but at this point Microsoft is so ingrained in the US federal government that it’s practically a branch of it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mastodon says it doesn't 'have the means' to comply with age verification laws⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That sounds like a very functional and rational solution to the problem of age verification. But age verification isn’t the ultimate goal, it’s mass surveillance, which your solution doesn’t work for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chevy has a hot new model!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol, thanks for reminding me to make an auto apt tomorrow.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how do you slice it??⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I let one cut and the other gets to pick first.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chevy has a hot new model!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Ya know my 2014 Chevy Cruze may be a shit box, but at least I don’t need a subscription to drive it. Plus it has physical buttons.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Looking for an RSS aggregator/summarizer/maybe-LLM thing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been really happy with fresh-rssFresh-RSS. Someone else on here put me onto about 6 months ago and it’s changed how I consume news.

  I find the most time consuming part was/is curating my feed but with tools like RSS-Brige I can really get fine grain control on what makes it through.

  On your LLM summarizer question, yes they have several plug-ins. I’ve recently started piping the whole feed into Gemini and telling it to pick the top 5 and summarize. But I do that in bash.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dedicated music server or all-in-one media server?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I build smart playlists for Navidrome with Symfonium on Android or Feishen on desktop, then export to server to get them into Navidrome. I also have been playing around with local AI generating smart playlists with mixed success. The file structure is very simple.

  Viruses, as far as the eye can see.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve never heard of h2c but it seems useful. I use docker swarm with a few nodes. But for internal communication all the containers can communicate with each other using docker’s built-in DNS.

  I run Traefik in front of Caddy for a few different applications including Nextcloud.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I also use Traefik, and once you have it set up it’s really great. Getting it set up is a different story. My advice would be to follow the install guide as closely as you can and don’t start adding to it until it’s stable.

  You don’t need to own a domain to use a reverse proxy by the way, you just need to configure your router to recognize whatever domain you choose and route it to the container.

  Lately, I’ve been playing around with Tailscale and you don’t even need a domain or open ports to connect to your containers from outside your local network.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We hate AI because it's everything we hate⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Damn that hits the nail on the head. Especially that analogy of watching a robot lift weights on your behalf then claiming gains. It’s causing brain atrophy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Worst part about living in Europe⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As someone who’s lived on a cobblestone street before, it’s nice to look at, but a lot less functional than asphalt or concrete. Especially trying to walk home from the bar with a few drinks in you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Backblaze is slow for Nextcloud. Any recommendations for faster s3 compatible storage?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Well I would recommend Akami/Linode because I’ve had some form of an instance for close to a decade and any downtime has been my own fault. I did just start playing with one of their premium compute linodes for some experiments. I have had Nextcloud in a shared resources node and it wasn’t bad, but it was slow. Currently I just run AIO on my home server mapped to the NAS for storage. If I set it up again I think I would do the same on Linode but it is pricey.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Router suggestions for a complete noob⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Did you know openwrt makes their own router now. It’s called the openwrt one. They’re not had for the price, mines been pretty solid. And they have a bunch upgrade options.
