  I’m an American but used to have roommates from all over the world and I’ll never forget how absolutely disappointed they were with McDonalds, Burger King, etc.

  Though I’m in Los Angeles so there are plenty of incredible hamburger places (far too many) if you’re seeking it out.

  Quorn has always been pretty nasty in my experience.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2022 was a bleak year 😢⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Huh? This would be stupidly much better; I live near a KFC and the cockroaches outside, the dead animal smell and just the grease in the surrounding area is atrocious. I wish they’d knock that shit down and sell real food rather than the mechanically separated, likely tortured animal carcasses they dump on the public. How morally bankrupt or tuned out do you have to be to eat in these places?

  You really named probably the only video editing software that isn’t using ffmpeg somewhere.

  Why not stop serving it indefinitely? I don’t understand why we keep locking up animals and trashing the environment for nothing but taste.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK that if you hesitate between Ketchup and Mustard, you should pick Mustard. It's healthier.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ugh, I love barbecue but the kind most people buy is like 90% sugar.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Advertisements⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m divided on this. I happily pay streaming services for ad-free plans but I’ve never been so into YouTube that I’ve wanted to pay for it. I have it blocked outright anyway (part of my “fuck Google” blocklist collection).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Website⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Same here! I started sprinkling in JavaScript from copy and paste snippets you’d find all over the web and eventually I moved on to PHP (for a small while) then Ruby on Rails.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If you are not in a tech field, what got you into self-hosting?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a web developer and whenever I pay my (awesome) mechanic I always sometimes wonder what it’s like on the “other side.”My dad was a mechanic when I was a child and I always regret never picking up those skills.

  A lot of times when they run me through their problem-solving I’m like “damn, that’s just like reproducing a bug to find its root cause.”

  Fuck no

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨UK | Oatly banned from using word ‘milk’ to label vegan drinks⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  People who impregnate (rape) and abuse cows for their milk are so insecure about their product that they need to ban competition from using its word. It’s really pathetic to watch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Manfluencers’ are filming themselves trying to pick up women using smart glasses⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Fuck I hate being male sometimes. What swamp do these skeezy sexist MAGA guys crawl out of?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I went back to Linux and it was a mistake⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I came here to say this. One guy’s experience using some proprietary shit box (the Dell) shouldn’t be representative of everyone’s experience. It’s not fair that Linux developers have to reverse engineer these drivers then get shit on for it down the road.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Man posts his incorrect opinion online⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Having moved from the shoes off Midwest to Los Angeles I’ve found that basically anyone non-Asian is wearing shoes indoors.

  My wife is a dentist and this would totally be her response.

  In the US we’ll do anything but build fiber with the billions we tossed at the telecom industry.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No need to be rude⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I basically feel the same way driving an Audi. I used to drive shitbox 90s-era Nissan Sentras but after ~5 years with the Audi it’s close to impossible not to drive like a complete douche in heavy traffic. More generally I think vehicles with turbos just put you on another level.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fake moo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  In any case it’s despicable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does my ISP sometimes give one IPv6 and another with a different subnet?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Are both subnets public?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can't stop won't stop⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Did you have a bowl of ice cream to numb the pain though?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Latvia bans teaching Russian as second foreign language starting 2026⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think a language’s usefulness is rather subjective and subject to experience: I love learning all sorts of languages that I have no daily exposure to but I wouldn’t say knowing them is “useless.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He thought about getting an Erector set, but⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  OxyContin only ever made me feel dizzy and kind of crappy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨reverse proxy over vpn without docker?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If you see a Docker solution that looks nice just look at how it’s built and replicate whatever software is packaged in its Dockerfile.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's the truth! ⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I was always curious about this! I’m bilingual and I always get mixed up because they’re actually called “purple onions” in Spanish. I always forget which language calls it which, but knowing this is definitely helpful!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PLEASE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For whatever reason I actually found this more difficult to read (not driving). Maybe it was the color choice?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Router VPN? Express put to rest⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My router is just a Protectli Vault mini PC with Alpine Linux. You can essentially pick your favorite Linux (or BSD) distro and make it a router.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Typical monopoly people⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The UK accent is actually more “modern” than the US one because the US one is more aligned with the accent imported around the time of colonialism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨big tobacco stopped paying⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I eat vegan chicken nuggets all the time and honestly they taste almost exactly the same. In fact I’d say any vegan version of highly processed meat (sausage, burgers, etc) tastes very similar.

  Just recently Starbucks gave me a real sausage patty instead of Impossible and I didn’t even know whether it was “real” meat at first — I had to take another look at it and see that the shape and thickness were different (and the store admitted it was the wrong product when I returned).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What DDNS providers you guys recommend?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re similar but mainly Tailscale arranges WireGuard tunnels between peers. There are tons of useful features around that functionality like being able to route specific traffic through specific hosts (“nodes” using “app connectors”); it’s even better at finding a way out of hostile networks using relays.

  Just as an example I typically use my VPS as an “exit node” so that all my traffic routes through it (which does a ton of tunnel hopping through commercial VPNs) while my wife isn’t into that at all, but both of us have Tailscale on our devices so when either of us accessing Home Assistant it’s routed directly to the host hosting it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why make 250GB m.2 disks instead of 1TB⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly! It just feels so wasteful. I imagine it’s to sell a higher capacity at greater cost for higher profit.
