- Comment on Believing misinformation is a “win” for some people, even when proven false 2 days ago:
the easier a statement is to disprove, the more of a power move it is to say it, as it symbolizes how far you’re willing to go. - ie “faith” in religion.
- Comment on Are there video media (e.g TV shows, Movies, anime, video games, youtube videos, etc...) with a majority of the dialogue in an fictional language? 4 days ago:
To stray even further from OP’s question (because books), I loved the dialect in Riddley Walker and the slang in A Clockwork Orange.
- Comment on Ideas 3 weeks ago:
I’m local first - stuff I’m testing, playing with, or “production” stuff like Jellyfin, Forgeo, AudioBookshelf, Kavita etc etc. Local is faster, more secure, and storage is cheap. But then some of my other stuff that needs 24/7 access from the internet - websites and web apps - they go on the VPS.
- Comment on Proxmox or Docker? 5 weeks ago:
I just do one Docker container per LXC. All the convenience of compose, plus those sweet Proxmox snapshots.
- Comment on PSP games that are enjoyable without the nostalgia-factor 1 month ago:
Sorry to have nostalgia in a post about games not needing it, but wow - the enjoyable hours I put into LocoRoco! Totally agree though - unique mechanic, and chef’s kiss execution.
- Comment on What games have mastered "Both emotional extremes"? 1 month ago:
Doki Doki Literature Club is a fun dating sim, but it has slightly more emotional breadth than that, so it might pass this test.
- Comment on Help setting up a selfhosted VPN at home 2 months ago:
Is there a reason not to use Tailscale for this?
- Comment on Aus Music - A place to find out about tours, hear new songs, and love classics. 2 months ago:
Great job on the banner - I could hear the theme in my head.
- Comment on Recommendations for a version control system 2 months ago:
Forgejo - actively developed open source. It’s what powers Codeberg. Easy to set up and manage with Docker. I moved to it from Gogs and skipped Gitea after reading about the forks.
- Comment on [Recommendation request] Simple monitoring? 2 months ago:
+1 for Uptime Kuma. I use it in conjunction with a tiny Go endpoint that exposes memory, disk and cpu. And, like @iii I use ntfy for notifications. I went down the Grafana/Influx etc route - and had a heap of fun making a dashboard, but then never looked at it. With my two Kuma instances (one on a VPS and one in my homelab) in browser tabs, and ntfy for notifications on my watch, I feel confidently across the regular things that can go wrong.
- Comment on Anthony Albanese names his top 10 Australian songs of all time – and there’s one big surprise 3 months ago:
Also disappointing to see such a click-bait-y headline from the Guardian.
- Comment on Tailscale MagicDNS issues since 1.84.1 mac? 4 months ago:
It is only resolving for devices in the Tailnet. Kuma is checking they are all up, and this Ansible playbook is checking they have all their updates. I wouldn’t have thought that was an unusual arrangement - and it’s worked perfectly for about a year till about three weeks ago.

Yes, this.
- Comment on Good experience with neko remote browser 4 months ago:
Thanks yes - that’s exactly what I needed.

- Comment on Good experience with neko remote browser 4 months ago:
Yes - we’re “I’ll let you use my electricity for your computer thing” friends, not “I’m okay with seeing your printer on my home network friends”.

- Comment on Best option for hosting ebooks and audiobooks? 4 months ago:
Kavita is for ebooks - it’s not perfect, has some weirdness with series sometimes because of it’s manga heritage.
- Comment on Best option for hosting ebooks and audiobooks? 4 months ago:
For me, AudioBookShelf is the clear standout for audio books, and I ended up going with Kavita for ebooks.
- Comment on How do you document your Homelab? 5 months ago:
I have it in a git repo, broken down by the nodes and vps names. In each of these folders is a mixture of Ansible playbooks, docker compose or just markdown files with the descriptions. Some is random stuff - my VPS allows the export of the cloud firewalls as JSON for instance. All the secrets needed by Ansible are in an Ansible vault, the rest in KeePass.
- Comment on Measles roars back in the US, topping 1,000 cases 5 months ago:
Prediction: data about measles cases stops being collected and published.
- Comment on Left Apple Maps this week for Magic Earth 8 months ago:
Good question. I think it’s basically a demo app for their location based libraries you’d use to build like a custom ambulance service routing solution.
- Comment on Left Apple Maps this week for Magic Earth 8 months ago:
I’m a fan, although I’m not sure it’s a great name. It helps keeps my motivation for updating OSM going.

Utopia episode.
- Comment on Let's Encrypt is 10 years old today ! 10 months ago:
It’s mind-bogglingly convenient, especially compared to the before times. Consider donating to them if you can.
- Comment on What are some self hosted services that you think are essential? 10 months ago:
No one’s mentioned Forgejo yet? Solid git and artifact repository.
- Comment on Who was our worst Prime Minister and why? Any notable state leaders we need to add? 11 months ago:
Harold Holt just fucked off one day.
- Comment on What would tools/services would you recommend for hosting without self hosting? 11 months ago:
Build anything small into a container on your laptop, push it to DockerHub or the Github package registry then host it on fly.io for free.
