  For example, the developer of asus-linux.org who made the kernel contributions for Asus ROG laptops and the accompanying ROG Control Center recently walked away, due to exhaustion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSA syncthing-fork has changed owners⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s wrong with original Syncthing? Why would anyone use a fork?

  Corporations have largely proven that laws don’t apply to them. Until a corporation is truly punished for wrongdoing (not just a fine), this will continue.

  There’s a huge difference between a piece of data being recorded in a SIEM somewhere and the data being displayed up front all of the time for micro managers to pounce on.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So admins, hows your instances looking today?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My Mastodon instance is working just fine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Readarr alternative suggestions?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  LazyLibrarian is fantastic for ebooks. Basically useless for audiobooks. I’ve found the entire *arr stack seems ill suited for audiobooks.

  What is that in a real scientific measurement?

  AI garbage strikes again

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RETIRED: Readarr - Sonarr for Ebooks Book Manager and Automation⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m generally pretty happy with LazyLibrarian. I know people get really excited about the *arr stack, but Readarr never worked well for ebooks. It was maybe a little better at finding audiobooks, but LL is getting better at that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What webapps do you selfhost that aren't media/game servers?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Besides a media server, I self host my email, a blog, an IRC bouncer, syncthing, SPFToolbox, and in my house I run ADS-B plane tracking.

  How many times can people keep making the same mistake without us concluding they’re stupid? Closed corporate social networks ALWAYS go to shit. Enshitification is inevitable. And you’ll have the sunk cost fallacy stopping them from leaving, until they all finally get fed up and switch again. Own your network - stop swapping.
