If I remember correctly it’s third tone so writing it as Loong actually makes sense in my head.

- Comment on YouTube will help you quit watching Shorts 1 week ago:
I mean, blocking all of YouTube blocks all the shorts and it also blocks their disgusting tracking spyware littered across the web (not just Google properties).
- Comment on YouTube will help you quit watching Shorts 1 week ago:
It’s worth it.

I block all their domains using my DNS server and won’t ever be tracked by them again.
- Comment on The Internet's Biggest Annoyance:Why Cookie Laws Should Target Browsers, Not Websites 1 week ago:
But what about the small blogger, the local restaurant, or the indie developer? For them, it’s another technical and legal headache, forcing them to install clunky, site-slowing plugins just to avoid a potential lawsuit.
As a small time developer, just no. Why would I be installing spyware on my small websites and importing a ton of third-party shit instead of doing things the right way from the beginning? Imagine tracking people to the extreme that you’ve got to resort to fucking popups and having that kind of web property tied to your name.

The Reject All button is only there in jurisdictions that require it.

Well lucky for me they don’t use AWS so I’ve never had to find out. 🥰
- Comment on Load bearing Tupperware 1 week ago:
I haven’t used AWS in years. No IPv6 support in S3 in 2017 was the last straw for me. I have to deal with it at work (sometimes) and always laugh when they introduce “new” features like HTTPS records in Route53 like two years late.

I use Tailscale but WireGuard is another great option that’s simpler for more tech-savvy people.

Yeah, when I can’t access my bank account the first thing I do is “touch grass.” 🥴

Once per year? I had outages much more often than that on AWS.
- Comment on So admins, hows your instances looking today? 1 week ago:
I run a side business and have been AWS-free for years. I love when all my competitors go down during AWS outages — my clients are the only ones still online in their industry.

I laugh every time AWS goes down. That’s what you fucking get, and don’t get me started on

Off the top: imagine buying an amazing present for a loved one and being so excited to give it to them. Now imagine that someone else intentionally buys the same thing and gives it to them right in front of you.
I feel like it’s kind of like that.

I’m confused, I call both HDDs and SSDs hard drives or disks. What’s the non-obsolete term?
- Comment on Experts raise privacy concerns over Michigan bill targeting pornography and VPNs 3 weeks ago:
I chain my VPN to a VPS where it’s then two hops through a local tunnel and two more through two other countries. The point is I like the VPS + local tunnels because it never seems like the traffic is leaving the country.
Were I living in one of the crazy states I’d still want at least my first hop to seem like it’s in the same state. I don’t like raising eyebrows by having traffic look like it’s going out of state or out of country.

Weren’t we already pissed and over it like 5-10 years ago? Why is this coming up again?
Honestly, who cares? This is one of those “issues” I feel like only people with way too much time on their hands care about, and that’s coming from someone with way too much time on their hands.

Just used
socatto tunnel WireGuard over TLS from my travel router on a hostile, incredibly insecure public WiFi network today and felt pretty good. My next project is to to tunnel it over QUIC instead. - Comment on Open Printer is a fully open-source inkjet with DRM-free ink and no subscriptions 3 weeks ago:
That’s true. I don’t print much (I’m happy to go to the print shop) but my wife does quite a bit, but not enough to keep the ink from drying out.
After buying two inkjet printers and having constant problems with the cartridges it probably would’ve been cheaper to start with the laser printer I eventually bought. I didn’t realize that HP would lock out cartridges from their subscription on cancellation either (which feels very morally wrong to me).
- Comment on Open Printer is a fully open-source inkjet with DRM-free ink and no subscriptions 3 weeks ago:
I could get into it if it were laser; I’ve long given up on inkjet.

I bailed on Synology a few years ago. I’ve been so much happier rolling my own NAS with Alpine Linux running on a Raspberry Pi 4.
- Comment on Reducing buffering when accessing Jellyfin via Tailscale 4 weeks ago:
If it’s cable internet you might just be constrained by the available upload speed. I tend to put my media in Storj then run a VPS somewhere between all the clients that serves the media via WebDAV with
rclone. This gets around the slow upload speed of cable internet at home, and I can cache the remote content on my NAS at home too.
