fair hit. shit got weird over there. i had a lot of depression. showering was one of the signs of that. Marines weren’t big on mental health treatments that didn’t involve physical labor or a weight room.

im pretty certain dry shampoo have no surfactants, it cannot clean!
- Comment on Dry Shampoo is the teenage girl equivalent to teenage boys' Axe Body Spray 1 day ago:
i’ve never understood dry shampoo for anything other than a one off. i used it in iraq and finally figured out it was causing me to get crazy dandruff. i talked to a corpsman about it, and they were like “just fucking shower, or stink, that shit is like washing your hands with sand, nothing is accomplished. shower jarhead.”
and ive lived that way ever since

- Comment on Bending fins in Active Cooler Pi5? PiNAS (Radax Penta SATA HAT + RaspberryPi5) 1 week ago:
A heatsink works by increasing surface area to dissipate heat through convection (air moving past it) and radiation (infrared energy). The key principle is:
Heat dissipation ≈ Surface Area × Temperature Difference × Heat Transfer Coefficient
but, for me, math is hard, so…
Why You Can Cut Fins Off (Usually)
- Diminishing Returns: Each fin you add provides less cooling benefit than the previous one because:
- Inner fins get less airflow (they’re shielded by outer fins)
- Heat has to conduct through more material to reach outer fins
- The temperature gradient decreases as you move away from the heat source
- The Rough Rule: A heatsink typically operates with 30-50% margin. So if it’s rated for 5W and your RPi CPU draws 3W, you have room to lose some fins.
- Fin Efficiency: There’s actually a mathematical concept called “fin efficiency” - fins that are too long or too closely spaced become ineffective. The last row of fins might only contribute 10-15% of total cooling.
Napkin Math Example
Say you have a heatsink with 8 fins:
- First 4 fins: ~60% of cooling
- Next 2 fins: ~25% of cooling
- Last 2 fins: ~15% of cooling
Cutting off one row (2 fins) loses maybe 10-12% of cooling capacity. If your CPU was running at 65°C with the full heatsink, it might now run at 68-70°C - usually fine since RPi CPUs throttle around 80-85°C.
When You Can’t Cut Fins
- If the heatsink was already barely adequate
- If you’re overclocking
- If ambient temps are already high
- If there’s no airflow
The real question to ask: “What’s my current CPU temp under load?” If it’s 60°C, cut away. If it’s 78°C, maybe find a different heatsink.

- Comment on Google is blocking AI searches for Trump and dementia 1 month ago:
The post is likely referring to a long-standing controversy around Brendan Eich, the founder and CEO of Brave (the browser and search engine company). In 2008, Eich donated $1,000 to support California's Proposition 8, a ballot measure that banned same-sex marriage (later overturned by courts). This came to light in 2014 when he was briefly appointed CEO of Mozilla, leading to widespread backlash from employees, users, and activists who viewed it as anti-LGBTQ+. Eich resigned from Mozilla after just 11 days amid the outcry, expressing regret for causing pain but not fully recanting his views. Some people, including in the LGBTQ+ community and allies, continue to avoid or criticize Brave on these grounds, seeing it as support for leadership with historically discriminatory stances. This isn't a "new" issue in 2025—it's tied to events from over a decade ago—but it persists in discussions about ethical tech choices. Brave has faced other unrelated controversies (e.g., ad practices), but this one specifically relates to anti-LGBT perceptions. For more details: - [Wikipedia on Brendan Eich](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brendan_Eich) - [Article on the Mozilla controversy](https://www.osnews.com/story/27646/the-new-mozilla-ceos-political-past-is-imperiling-his-present/) - [Recent discussion on Brave controversies](https://www.reddit.com/r/browsers/comments/1j1pq7b/list_of_brave_browser_controversies/) - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43300333
well fuck! brave is the one browser that fits all my needs.

- Comment on Do bots/scrapers check uncommon ports? 1 month ago:
Read up on shodan.io. bot networks and scrapers can use the database as a seed to find open ports.
The cli massscan can (under reasonable conditions) scan the the entire ipv4 address space for a single port in 3 minutes. It would take an estimated 74 years for massscan to scan all 64k ports for the entire ipv4 network.
So, using a seed like shodan, can compliment scanners/scrapers to isolate ip addresses to further recon.
I honestly don’t know if this helps your question, I don’t actually know, but I’ve written a lot of scanning agents (not ai, old school agents) to recon for red/blue teams. I never started with raw internet guesses, I always used a seed. Shodan, or other scan results.

I’ve learned my lesson. Good job.
- Comment on [Help] Media Server + *arr stack: Follow TRaSH guides or my own setup? 2 months ago:
Look out, I’m about to mention AI.
I had most arr things I wanted setup already. I have a putio stack mostly.
I decided to refactor the setup a while ago, shit was always breaking, and I just didn’t want to put time into it.
So I launched Claude code, started a server-manager repo, and about 3 hours later, I had a EXCELLENT setup, all my fave release groups on priority, resolutions I want, it found ally Plex media, stuck it in sonarr, reccomended I start a trakt account, which I did, and now every upcoming scifi, fantasy, horror, action flick gets picked up automatically, it created its own putio uploader, and downloader, I bought filebot on it’s reccomendation, and now all my media is renamed perfectly, I signed up for subs, I have subtitles everywhere. My audiobook library was imported, and it figured out what audiobooks I buy and what I don’t, gave me a stern talking to about piracy, then I launched opencode and used grok4 to process my audible books to remove drm. (Grok really doesn’t say no to many requests. However fuck Elon, so i don’t use it more often.) Claude setup a docker environment with qbitorrent, with a deadmans switch, it will only connect via my VPN. So I could get rid of putio, which I won’t.
I asked for monitoring and it spun up uptimekuma. In the middle of the project we decided to use coolify toanage everything. Again, it set the whole f’n thing up. This was the only thing I had to finalize, UNTIL I found out there’s an API, so Claude read the API docs and now runs my coolify platform.
Honestly the afternoon was fun as hell, claude-code just set everything up, I had to guide/steer it some, but it was able to read documentation on its own and tighten up my setup. It even optimized my docker to properly use my gpus. Now I have comfyui, ollama +gptoss, also running on my network with very little effort.
I have a max subscription, and after paying a few bills without it, I won’t go back. This setup burned a lot of tokens. It easily would’ve been a few hundred if I’d payed API rates. I think however a pro account would have enough tokens in a day to do something similar. You don’t even need Opus, Sonnet did fine.
So, if your stuck, get you a Claude pro subscription, hook up Claude code, and see if it can help you.
I use Claude almost all day, so this was pretty easy, but I cannot stress enough how much I dislike administering my media setup. Now I have a Claude custodian.
