I can see this being multi player
- Comment on Are there any bots that we can use to mirror posts from subreddits? 3 days ago:
There were a lot more during one of the big Reddit migrations but they don’t work.
Communities need engagement and you don’t get that with bot cross posts.
- Comment on Data centers are drying up the Port of Marseille: ‘They consume enormous amounts of electricity’ 3 days ago:
The port can’t get power to electrify ships while they are in port. The data centers are literally in the port and have consumed or reserved it all.
Ships that dock can’t shut down their engines at that port so they are likely to dock elsewhere.
- Comment on Best Practice Ideas 3 days ago:
It’s not odd. You’ll need to build the 3 VMs if you want to run Kubernetes and not destroy your existing hypervisor.
- Comment on How do I beat the roaches in this house? 3 days ago:
Get that bait gel. They eat it then die back in the walls where others eat it and die.
Glue traps.
Seal up everything. Foam for the larger gaps, caulk for everything else. All baseboards.
- Comment on SpaceX says states should dump fiber plans, give all grant money to Starlink 1 week ago:
For me? 40/5 was about the best I could get. Mountains between me and the towers.
- Comment on SpaceX says states should dump fiber plans, give all grant money to Starlink 1 week ago:
It can’t, and the taxes you would pay to support fiber to my home would be extreme.
But fiber to a local wireless solution? Sure. But even that’s not possible for everyone, and they were expensive and unreliable until starlink started showing up. LEO internet has its benefits.
- Comment on SpaceX says states should dump fiber plans, give all grant money to Starlink 1 week ago:
I’m a starlink customer and think it’s one of the best advancements in the past decade as it provides real access to rural addresses. The side effects of this is nearly immeasurable.
Spacex needs to STFU about this though. Fiber should continue to be deployed where possible.
- Comment on My petty gripe: forced software updates just make everything worse 1 week ago:
You can’t maintain security and feature changes separately long term.
- Comment on My petty gripe: forced software updates just make everything worse 1 week ago:
Let’s look at your code from 20+ years ago?
- Comment on My petty gripe: forced software updates just make everything worse 1 week ago:
No one remembers how vulnerable windows server and windows desktop OS’s were before they revamped updates?
Forced updates are great. The internet is safer.
- Comment on Searching through a bulk of pdf files 1 week ago:
In windows you may need to add an ifilter. Adobe’s is pretty good. Then windows search will be able to search contents.

Sounds like shit drives are half of the problem?
- Comment on Need help for setting up a VPN project 1 week ago:
The answer here is still a single vpn, and Tailscale makes this even easier.
- Comment on Need help for setting up a VPN project 1 week ago:
What you’re describing is overly complex routing, and split DNS.
Join all clients to a single network.
- Comment on Need help for setting up a VPN project 1 week ago:
From the diagram you just want to put everything within a vpn so they are on the same network.
You can choose whatever vpn solution you want but I like Tailscale since you don’t need to set up any inbound nat or firewall.
From the diagram it looks like you want your outside clients to use vpn as well.
- Comment on Microsoft's latest Windows 11 24H2 update breaks SSDs/HDDs, may corrupt data 1 week ago:
Looks to be region specific and occurs on specific controllers under heavy writes (50gb+). Symptoms clear after a reboot.
- Comment on Need help for setting up a VPN project 1 week ago:
Yes.
Otherwise, just open up ports on your network firewall and set up DNS to point to your external ip.
There might be a way to do this with cloudfare that is more secure.
- Comment on Need help for setting up a VPN project 1 week ago:
Install Tailscale on your vps and your homelab server.
Share the Tailscale dns of your server with guests.
Use your vps as your exit node.

- Comment on LibreOffice is right about Microsoft, and it matters more than you think. 1 week ago:
I still end up with other issues.
Right now I have one that attempted an update and ate the storage device. I later find out that the update command is deprecated and shouldn’t be used. Why is it still there then?
Another that installed a DE but the display is sideways and it’s not responding to the config.txt edits to rotate the display. In windows i didn’t need to look anything up, just right click and edit my display settings.

You have a misunderstanding of physics.
- Comment on LibreOffice is right about Microsoft, and it matters more than you think. 1 week ago:
Could be. I just remember being perturbed that there wasn’t an easy way to undo that situation.
- Comment on LibreOffice is right about Microsoft, and it matters more than you think. 1 week ago:
Every single time I try out Linux it’s been a shitshow. Stuff doesn’t work, drive encryption requires multiple passwords to boot up. Updates that fail.
Windows just works. Only apple is more consistent.
- Comment on Forget Netflix, Volkswagen locks horsepower behind paid subscription 1 week ago:
Greedy.
- Comment on Forget Netflix, Volkswagen locks horsepower behind paid subscription 1 week ago:
In many cases there’s no extra wear. I paid $800 for a Ford ecu update that improves engine output but also retains any warranty.
I bet this has more to do with emissions.

Did I stutter?
- Comment on Could I just create my own drive format? 2 weeks ago:
Look up reiserfs.
You can do anything if you put your mind to it.
- Comment on what's the best material for wiping out a cast iron skillet? 2 weeks ago:
Modern soaps lack the phosphates that really mess with cast iron. I typically do this.
Little bit of water, heat on high until it boils most things off the pan.
Scrape with metal spatula and stick items.
Hit it lightly with soap and sponge.
Dry with paper towel.
Spray with oil.
Wipe oil all sides.

Falcon 4.0 gets my respect for forcing me into advanced computer tinkering and sending me into my career eventually.
