  I have seen some cars flash their brake lights when ABS is activated, but this would be better

  Guess it’s not AI slop at least

  You’ll notice a difference, I built a fermentation fridge like a decade ago, brewpiless controller and added a greenhouse heater. Absolutely notice the difference.

  Hence why I only use foss keebs (Futo), or run gboard with network perms disabled.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In North Korea, your phone secretly takes screenshots every 5 minutes for government surveillance⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the way.

  My eldest when her internet want working confidently told me her computer couldn’t connect to the globe

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm genuinely sad about the Marathon situation⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If you think that’s rough, growing up with the classic makes it really rough to see them force a generic extraction shooter into a beloved franchise for no reason

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you document your Homelab?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I run nixos, so my entire homelab servers setup is stored in my github. I can rebuild a server and restore backups from that (and sops keys). I significantly prefer this to having to remember and note a huge bunch of things to setup a computer - this way a rebuild on new oc is only a few hours tops

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨More DDOS(?) traffic⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They probably had it comin

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Secrets Management⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Single node VPS? Yeah, I mean with a smaller distro (Talos/k0s) it’s still fine, but your not utilising clustering which is a lot of the benefit.

  If you are keen for gitops (like I am) consider nix or hell a docker-compose and restic backup cron.

  Big Asterix is - if you are doing this as a learning tool for $job go nuts, it’s incredible experience for work. But Ive knownna few people that got burnt out doing k8s for work and then k8s at home…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Secrets Management⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s overkill for homelab and over complex/additional failure points.

  I use sops encrypted, published in my public git. When I apply my nix config, they are pulled and unencrypted on apply on the local machine.

  Keeps it as simple as I can think of, with few moving parts.

  I’ll be doing my part defending Super Earth on Friday night. With a whiskey. On Bazzite, it runs fine on Linux.

  One of the only games my parents ever bought me was cosmos cosmic adventure.

  Our 286 didn’t have enough ram to run it. Had to give it to friends.

  Was heartbreaking to watch my friends play it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Version Dashboard⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Definitely renovate it and keeping your code in a bit using gotops principles. When I run k8s I used flux to reconcile my reponstate to my clusters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft rolls Windows Recall out to the public nearly a year after announcing it⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So reading more into it, it’s (currently) only on the bogus copilot+ PCs they were peddling? I’m happily on bazzite, but this is good news for my stubborn mates that haven’t touched copilot+ shit.

  Where am I moving my friends group? Revolt is nice but not quite ready for primetime / getting a rewrite, and I’ve always been iffy about matrix. Is a signal group chat literally where we’re heading to!?
