- Comment on Do my pets think I'm yelling at them when I start singing out loud? 2 weeks ago:
When I cook I often sing and dance in the kitchen. This excites one of my dogs and makes her want to play. One of the ways she plays is to kinda run around sideways a bit wiggling her butt a lot while doing a yelpy growl and it’s like she is singing and dancing too.

I got the same thing, went back to the home page, refreshed and then the rego page worked.
- Comment on Honey 4 weeks ago:
Not just insects. Vermin control is critical and often not very ethical. Here in Australia, rabbits and kangaroos can be a big issue for farmers too and are often killed to protect crops when they become too numerous. Ducks can be a big issue for rice farmers here and permits are issued to shoot ducks on crops.

People just liked it better that way.

Back when google photos used to make videos of things you have done and taken lots of photos for, it made a video for me of a camping trip that prominently featured photos of a dead wild horse. Complete with confetti effects.

- Comment on Why we don't have 128-bit CPUs 4 months ago:
Not to mention most “8-bit” CPUs had a 16 bit address bus.

You are several orders of magnitude more likely to be killed by another human than an animal or insert in Australia.
- Comment on How many of you 9-5s have been given work from home forever ? 6 months ago:
I work as a software engineer for an Australian bank. My team works remote except for one day a fortnight which is in office to have some meetings that work better in person and so we can catch up and go for lunch. However I didn’t go in for my last in office day because I had too much to do and it can be hard to get work done when we are in office.
- Comment on Pros and cons of getting a job at a very small software company? (14 employees) 7 months ago:
I worked for a small software company for 6 years after finishing uni. I was the first person the founders hired. It was a great time and I learnt a lot and got to make a lot of decisions and had a lot of freedom.
But they didn’t pay anywhere near as much as a corporate job so when I got offered significantly more money to work for a very large company the small company couldn’t match it and pushed me to take it as a huge career and development opportunity.
It’s been great working at the big company but I really miss the culture and involvement I had at the small company.
- Comment on Owners of a domain, which domain registrar did you choose and why? 7 months ago:
+1 for namecheap. I’m happy with them as a registrar. Their support has always been fast and helpful if I have an issue. I use CloudFlare for DNS as they were easier to setup something for dynamic IP.

Clive Palmer is a Fatty McFuckhead.
- Comment on Best way to dockerize a static website? 8 months ago:
I just use nginx alpine, if freenginx proves to be the better option later it should be fairly trivial to switch the base image.
- Comment on delicious 8 months ago:
I only eat lab grown microplastics.
- Comment on I'm a US citizen, people in other countries, what do you think when you read stories like these about the US health care system? 8 months ago:
I’m Australian, I hate the way our government treats our healthcare system and continues to make decisions in favour of companies and to the detriment of the Australian people, but holy hell is our system better than in the US.
Each time I read an article like this I’m glad to live here. This is never a decision we would need to make, we wouldn’t even question going to the ER in a case like this.
- Comment on And how's there a car in a mall? Life's important questions 9 months ago:
I had so many theories about the Bermuda triangle and the Mary Celeste disappearance… Then I got older and more sceptical and found out the Bermuda triangle is nothing special, just highly trafficked and the Mary Celeste mystery was largely fictionalized and nothing remarkable.

You should never forget where your towel is.
- Comment on Jellyfin on Proxmox 1 year ago:
I used to use Plex running in an LXC in Proxmox but when I switched to Jellyfin I did it through docker and I haven’t looked back. The setup was easier, maintenance is easier (updates can be scripted to be automatic really easily) and it works in a reliable predictable way like the rest of my docker containers.
I just have a VM in Proxmox that has docker installed and that contains all of my containers.

- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I used to run it on an old PC I got for free from a school made circa 2007 with a core 2 duo and 2gb of RAM and it ran remarkably well for such an old machine.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
I think the ideal solution would be content warnings like Mastodon has, maybe these convert to NSFW posts for activityPub but within Lemmy surely they can work the way intended.
- Comment on What is your favorite domain name provider, and why? 1 year ago:
I’ve seen it with GoDaddy but not namecheap.

I’m with namecheap, they are considerably better than my last registrar.
