- Comment on How often do you update software on your servers? 8 hours ago:
Gentooer here. Emerge sync &; world daily at night.
Weekly a manual check for stuff that doesn’t autoupdate for reasons.
Monthly / biweekly podman compose pull for containers. Manual, because i don’t trust that kind of autoupdate.
- Comment on what do you think about that large difference in egypt (inequality) 4 days ago:
The failure of globalization?
Where it was supposed to lift third world countries from poverty and instead created bigger wealth gaps?
Font know really. It’s like that in many places… India, Mexico, South Africa just a few that I have seen.
It’s mostly failure of the state.
- Comment on Is it possible to be a leftist, but still really enjoy capitalism? 1 week ago:
Very much yes!
Leftist doesn’t mean communist at all

I don’t care for the pwa since I use Markor on android and syncrhing…
Yes the looks are ugly and it’s been a pain with SSO and auth in general…
Let me know!
I like how your project looks more.
- Comment on jotty·page - Checklists & Notes made it easy 1 week ago:
I currently use Silverbullet.MD, which is cool, but a bit too much for my needs.
Can you tell me the pros of using jotty instead?

Dogs can express and feel lots of emotions. But don’t humanize them.
- Comment on Photofield v0.20.0 released: dark mode, photo details, best scrollbar, better map, more search filters, etc. 1 week ago:
I love how smooth is photo field, and the way it makes browsing your photos so unique.
I think it’s a neat project!
- Comment on Photofield v0.20.0 released: dark mode, photo details, best scrollbar, better map, more search filters, etc. 1 week ago:
I remember trying it. A very neat idea beautifully implemented. But switched to IMMICH, more features, closer to what I needed.
Keep up the great job! Having alternatives is always a good thing.
I loved photofield!

Never used calls…
- Comment on What's the best chat to self host? 2 weeks ago:
I have gone down the matrix rabbit hole but i choose Continuwity, which is the successor to Conduwuit after the community drama.
It’s a rust server alternative to synapse, it’s lightweight and works very well.
Fuck synapse, it’s a colossal pain for small servers, not worth it. I also actively avoid anything related to the company behind it since I think they poison what matrix could be.
I wish I started with XMPP, but now I am selfhosted on matrix, so.
- Comment on For a while Microsoft was the King of PC stuff. How come they didn't just cozy up to the PC but had to do the XBOX and pretty much lose their ass with all the cash grabs? 2 weeks ago:
I have winter snow tires from them as well. Not studded, illegal here.

They only purchased the Nokia division that made phones. Nokia is still very well alive and doing great in tons of different markets, including lumber (*)
(*) at least was a few years ago last time I cared to check.
- Comment on Which would be better? 3 weeks ago:
The GMK seems more configurable and cheaper overall.
Beside this, there is no real difference as far as Linux support, I think.
- Comment on The age of adulthood should be 21 and the age of consent should be 25 across the world 3 weeks ago:
I would raise the age to get married to at least 40. That would solve lots of broken marriages issues.
- Comment on The age of adulthood should be 21 and the age of consent should be 25 across the world 3 weeks ago:
Exactly. I do agree.
That doesn’t male rape go away of course, but if I consent, well, if I can drink drive and vote, either I al a grown up or i al not, make your mind.
- Comment on The age of adulthood should be 21 and the age of consent should be 25 across the world 3 weeks ago:
Don’t agree at all.
Adulthood for what? Voting? Maybe. Drinking? No legal age at all, IMHO.
To have sex? No real minimum age, but a delta age between the two participants of no more than 2 years until 16yo, 3 until 20yo. After 20yo, whatever ring your bell.
Yes I am being extreme on purpose here.
- Comment on How realistic is it for me to learn Japanese so that I can experience Anime better? How long would it take to learn? Has anyone attempted this? 3 weeks ago:
I have friends who learned japanese quite easily. Granted, they where living in japan so that’s way easier being deep into easy practice and daily exposure.
But grammar is quite easy, as well as phonetics (that actually depends on your mother language, for us it is at least).
Of course don’t learn the traditional symbols, or don’t learn how to write it at all, since that would be useless to your goal. If that is even possible I don’t know.
Disclaimer: I didn’t study japanese

Not a big effort to promote your new community, eh?
- Comment on If you were a superhero and you knew a 21- to 23-year-old dating older people, what would you do? 3 weeks ago:
But why?
I would understand a 4yo dating a 30yo maybe, or a situation of abuse of power or violence, but a 22yo dating a 37yo while unusual, unless hides an abuse of power or violence, doesn’t need you to mess with.
Let the guys live that relationship out, it’s their life, not yours, they are both of age and presumely responsible for themselves.

Sure you CAN do it, but it’s much more difficult than anything lse to self-host at home.
- Comment on Upgrading ungrounded two-prong outlets to grounded three-prong? 5 weeks ago:
Setting up a ground system isn’t that hard, it involves bury a few rods and do some wiring. I did it for my house, but I had an electrician expert tell me what to do and how yo do it properly.
Said so, get ground wires absolutely and a ground “stuff” (not native English speaker don’t know the correct word).
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
Dahua where top of the class, unfortunately hard to find today. I run like 8 of them.
Reolink maybe, but own one and not really at par with Dahua.
If anybody knows who is the successor to dahua, let me know.
Chaper than that, sorry, it’s going to be shit.
- Comment on Question for Selfhosted mail server 5 weeks ago:
Don’t selfhost email at home. Tons of reasons why won’t work, this is only the tip of the iceberg you are facing.
Indeed selfhost a mailserver, I do, but do it on a VPS. Of course, more the better, but a very cheap VPS is the bare minimum you gonna need.
No workaround there.
- Comment on Upgrading ungrounded two-prong outlets to grounded three-prong? 5 weeks ago:
First of all make sure you do have a real ground, as in these cases most probably they only added a three prong receptacles wothout the third wire.
And even of the ground wire is there, follow it all the way… Since o have seen that dangling unconnected so many times…
Is this a home or an apartment? '50s apartment buildings most probably don’t even have a common ground at all.
- Comment on Self hosted family archive 5 weeks ago:
Unless you want a photo organizer like Immich, you can upload or better maybe link photos in dokuwik.
And you can write entire pages with photos, something you cannot do in immich or similar tools.
- Comment on Self hosted family archive 5 weeks ago:
Self host dokuwiki. Simple, easy, effective. I do.
- Comment on is there a way to run openwrt and debian at the same time without virtualization? 1 month ago:
Wait, docker doesn’t require any hardware virtualization that’s only for VMs…
- Comment on is there a way to run openwrt and debian at the same time without virtualization? 1 month ago:
Virtualization cpu support only help with performance. You can run VMs without it…
You could even run a VM with full software emulation somehow…
