Good point

Even better tbh
- Comment on How feasible would it be to host Mastodon, Pixelfed, Lemmy, Friendica, or Matrix over Tor/I2P? 1 day ago:
github.com/agabani/tor-operator I’ve keep wanting to add something like this to a cluster and hosting those services behind a Tor proxy

Buying Doom the Dark Ages now. Hell yeah for them!
- Comment on Hurray! This German State Decides to Save €15 Million Each Year By Kicking Out Microsoft for Open Source 3 days ago:
Honestly. I think private companies can have a place in public infra, but it’s not in the freaking ownership. Rent seeking is the worst and most destructive aspect of private ownership and we’ve known and can look at countless example of that since Adam Smith!

Another government stops renting key software and instead invests in actuall ownership!
Honestly, if Microsoft said they wanted to own the Autobahn I could only imagine people would tell them to fuck off (in english and deutche). Why would digital infrastructure be any different?
- Comment on Hmm, any XCP-NG fans for self-hosting? 3 days ago:
I know a person that swore up and down about it, but personally I didn’t see the appeal. I am biased towards containers though so Harvester is my Promo alternative I’m running
- Comment on The LanguageTool extension will now be paid 3 days ago:
Worth paying for. Honestly guys selhost for yourself and family contribute to project you depend on, and pay for everything else you don’t have the time to do that too.
Its free as in freedom, not free as in beer. Their still FOSS even so this isn’t even a rug pull imho

That feels like the trap here. There is no intention, just patterns.

How many hours prompting have you put into it so far?

I can’t just call everything snake oil without some actual measurements and tests.
Naive cynicism is just as naive as blind optimism
- Comment on Hytale won't be on Steam right away, as its devs want to avoid "overindexing on negative reviews" from players who "aren't as well-informed yet" 1 week ago:
So it’s early early access
- Comment on Money. Why does THAT work? 1 week ago:
Enough people who have goods or can provide valuable services agree to use it and something limits the amount of it in circulation.

Honestly wild. Like did they all turn a screw once? Big git repo?
- Comment on The cloud is just someone else's computer, but the internet is just someone else's network 1 week ago:
I just learned about Internet2 at SuperCompute in my decades of being in the networking space
- Comment on **How** should I properly document my homelab? 2 weeks ago:
Yep! It uses open stacks Ironic under the hood, but tracks config and stack via k8s.
For OS building I’ve been moving to Elemental which builds OS images from container images and cloud init scripts into Suse Micro immutable OSs (which use btrfs for the snapshot management under the hood for updates).
- Comment on With bathing, water recirculation is more easily accepted. 2 weeks ago:
They sell water recirculators for showers actually!
- Comment on **How** should I properly document my homelab? 2 weeks ago:
Yep! Metal3 for servers with BMCs Tinkerbell for everything else.
I also have an ansible playbook that templates everything into a cloud init scripts as a boot strap server.
About 12 nodes in total now, from new servers to freebee junk laptops in it.
- Comment on **How** should I properly document my homelab? 2 weeks ago:
This is what I like about git ops and infra/config as Code personally.
Ideally everything is an a tofu/ansible/helm chart and git lab pipeline/Fleet job. I add comments for anything that I had to learn to make work to those files. Follow good commit hygenine (most of the time). And bam I can almost a year later half asleep stumble back into a thing I did.
- Comment on Every single time I think of restructuring my homelab storage. What do you use for storage engines and how does it benefit you? 3 weeks ago:
I guess I like HA scaled stuff even if just for play. I hate hurdles though
- Comment on Zoox will let public riders use its robotaxis in San Francisco 3 weeks ago:
I do like these designs better. Wheel chair access on roads (i.e. cars that support it) have been lacking. I also like that they don’t look like a mil spec APC taking up every square inch of the road
Still better walk ability, better bike routes, better trams, better metros, better buses. All make more sense for Intercity travel.
But also also fuck these for being massive road based spy drones
- Comment on Jeff Bezos reportedly launches new AI startup with himself as CEO 3 weeks ago:
I don’t know why but misuing mythos so bad just grinds my gears.
Like are you, one of the most powerful beings in the world, really stealing fire and giving it to mankind risking yourself in the process? Does any of that sound like what he’s fucking doing? Seriously.
Be like me running a mom and pop plumbing company in the valley name Zeus.
- Comment on Scientists Growing Colour Without Chemicals 5 weeks ago:
I really like the specification of petrochemicals. Thats make a significant difference. That is awesome, the more places we can cut those industries out the better.
- Comment on People who rely on their phones/computers to tell time probably forgot or didn't realize that a Daylight Saving Time-Change even happened, some might've forgotten that DST existed at all. 5 weeks ago:
As it should be. My management there were just bad at there jobs

First time in my life it was good thing. Friend and I were sleeping off hangovers, thought we wasted the day away and got back an hour.
Every other years it’s meant me staying later for or going in early for work lol
- Comment on With how shitty some Christians are, you really have to wonder if Lucifer or Satan is truly "evil" 5 weeks ago:
I felt this way coming from the Midwest to down south. There are plenty of biggots west of the missippi too but folks like the west borrow morons are rare. Down south id hear biggots on the goddamn radio.
At least for the most part, as an outsider, Midwest churches were mostly just seen doing charities (like that’s all Jesus asked them do for others…).

Why always scale to 1?
- Comment on Serverless Is An Architectural Handicap (And I'm Tired of Pretending it Isn't) 1 month ago:
Problem is containers mean OCI/Docker containers for most people, which distinctly are little OSs (the kernel is shared), where serverless creates a common OS stack and application framework as well.

I use serverless via knative in my homelab…

That was an intentional design choice no?
