- Comment on Is there a word or phrase in your language to describe the situation when you wanted to fart but shit yourself? 2 days ago:
they farted with splashes/droplets
(kinda, hard to translate, the original is “s-a bășit cu stropi”)

Cradle of Filth! I used to have some shorts with their logo :))
- Comment on who's gonna tell him? 2 weeks ago:
I had to look it up myself: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-hole
- Comment on What are your opinions of using Pi-hole for DNS within a homelab environment? 1 month ago:
I used pihole for years, but the recent updates made me look for alternatives. There was a major (v6?) update fuckup, but also some random freezes and block lists going missing…
Looking for alternatives, I tried out Technitium. Extremely easy to set up, rock solid, running steady for about 6 months (with frequent updates), and they recently introduced built in high-availability.

tcpdumpa “hacking tool”… - Comment on [deleted] 2 months ago:
I read this in Sazed’s accent, from Mistborn. He used to finish sentences with “I think” :)
- Comment on Internal domain and reverse proxy 3 months ago:
I have a similar setup, with a public domain hosted by cloudflare. Internally, I use caddy with the DNS feature pointing to the cloudflare using their API and letsencrypt certs.
Something like this: webenclave.com/…/setting-up-a-secure-local-networ…
I can also share more details, maybe my compose files and caddy setup if you need them.
- Comment on Can I do VPN + Plex on my hosting server? Do I need it under this circumstance? 3 months ago:
That’s true. I still do, for my entire *arr stack, but you don’t need to, except for the torrent client.

Ah, I did not know that.

i’m not saying it is ai generated, but those apostrophes from “can’t” and “don’t”… i don’t have those on my keyboard :)
- Comment on Can I do VPN + Plex on my hosting server? Do I need it under this circumstance? 3 months ago:
I’m using Gluetun to connect to my VPN, and only *arr services and qbit use it. Here’s a good example: github.com/…/docker-compose.yml
- Comment on Readarr alternative suggestions? 3 months ago:
Yeah, I still use the latest readarr builds with both ebooks and audiobook, and with rreading-glasses they still work. I am also in the chaptarr discord and got access to the alpha build, which looks really promising. Still rough around the edges, though.

- Comment on Before modern-day authoritarian regimes, did people living under abosolute monarchies talk criticize the monarchs? Or did they just stay silent in fear of persecution? 4 months ago:
They didn’t go into details, just made sure I fear talking about it again. Losing my parents was incentive enough. And I’ve never heard them talk about the regime ever again.
A few months later, in December of ‘89, as more and more cities around the country were revolting, my parents suddenly took me to my grandparents’ in the countryside, and they went back to town. I didn’t know why. A few days later I saw on TV the “we’re free” news, with footage from around the country and the new “National Salvation Front” political party taking over. I didn’t understand much then, but I remember being proud that they finally “arrested the guy” (they executed him and his wife by firing squad, on Christmas day).

i was around 7yo.

I grew up in a rough communist regime. I was really young when I overheard my parents talking about how the “supreme leader” was bad and things were starting to boil the next town over. There was nothing on TV or radio. Innocent me just asked my dad like, if he’s that bad, why don’t they just arrest the guy? They didn’t realize I actually understood what they were talking about. I can still remember, to this day, 36 years later, how the soul left my parents’ body in an instant, and we had a looong conversation about how I should never say anything like that ever again. People disappear when they talk like that, and “you don’t want your mum and dad to go away, do you”?
A few months later there was a nation wide uprising, people died, the regime fell, and they actually arrested the guy.

- Comment on Plex server patching required 5 months ago:
Client availability is valid. I use an android tv, that’s been easy for me. There are mobile clients for every phone and tablet.
- I don’t know what smart collections are, but I do get automatic collections for franchises (like all “28 x later”) via a plugin. I don’t have playlists, but I guess I never felt the need for one… What would you use them for, binge watching franchises?
- skip intro and credits is a thing, built in since a few versions (used to be a plugin)
- the UI is subjective, and I don’t know any other one… I personally like how it looks, I customized quite a bit, easy to do via CSS.
- Comment on Plex server patching required 5 months ago:
I’ve never used Plex. What are some of the features that you’re missing in Jellyfin? Genuinely curious.
- Comment on No bias, no bull AI 5 months ago:
No Bias, No Bull AI I’ve spent my career grappling with bias. As an executive at Meta overseeing news and fact-checking, I saw how algorithms and AI systems shape what billions of people see and believe. As a journalist at CNN, I even hosted a show briefly called “No Bias, No Bull”(easier said than done, as it turned out). Trump’s executive order on “woke AI” has reignited debate around bias and AI. The implication was clear: AI systems aren’t just tools, they’re new media institutions, and the people behind them can shape public opinion as much as any newsroom ever did. But for me, the real concern isn’t whether AI skews left or right, it’s seeing my teenagers use AI for everything from homework to news without ever questioning where the information comes from. Political bias misses the deeper issue: transparency. We rarely see which sources shaped an answer, and when links do appear, most people ignore them. An AI answer about the economy, healthcare, or politics, sounds authoritative. Even when sources are provided, they’re often just footnotes while the AI presents itself as the expert. Users trust the AI’s synthesis without engaging sources, whether the material came from a peer-reviewed study or a Reddit thread. And the stakes are rising. News-focused interactions with ChatGPT surged 212% between January 2024 and May 2025, while 69% of news searches now end without clicking to the original claiming neutrality while harboring clear bias. We’re making the same mistake with AI, accepting its conclusions without understanding their origins or how sources shaped the final answer. The solution isn’t eliminating bias (impossible), but making it visible. Restoring trust requires acknowledging everyone has perspective, and pretending otherwise destroys credibility. AI offers a chance to rebuild trust through transparency, not by claiming neutrality, but by showing its work. What if AI didn’t just provide sources as afterthoughts, but made them central to every response, both what they say and how they differ: “A 2024 MIT study funded by the National Science Foundation…” or “How a Wall Street economist, a labor union researcher, and a Fed official each interpret the numbers…”. Even this basic sourcing adds essential context. Some models have made progress on attribution, but we need audit trails that show us where the words came from, and how they shaped the answer. When anyone can sound authoritative, radical transparency isn’t just ethical, it’s the principle that should guide how we build these tools. What would make you click on AI sources instead of just trusting the summary? Full transparency: I’m developing a project focused precisely on this challenge– building transparency and attribution into AI-generated content. Love your thoughts.

My “servers” are headless, in the basement, so even if I’m home, it’s still remote :D
- Comment on Proxmox 9 released 5 months ago:
It’s always good to red the docs, but I often skip myself :)
They have this nifty tool called
pve8to9that you could run before upgrading, to check if everything is healthy.I have 3 node cluster, so I usually migrate my VMs to a different node and do my maintenance then, with minimal risks.

- Comment on Self host sff project 6 months ago:
This was my starting up machine. Of course, an nvme makes sense, especially running windows on it. I went for Proxmox, and now I have 4 different machines, a cluster of 3 similar sffs, and a chunkier boi with an i7, 64gb ram and a quadro gpu. This one was the most expensive, around 250€.
Beware, this is how it starts. From a single machine in my office, I went to a mini Datacenter in my cellar, with 4 “servers” (micro-pcs), two Nas devices, a raspberry pi cluster, a dell wyse cluster, new switches and access points, and so much more :))
- Comment on Self host sff project 6 months ago:
you can get away with half that. i run my setup (similar to what you wrote) on a dell micro sff with an i5 6500t and 16gb ram that i paid 90€ for. not the snappiest, but works just fine.
