  FLIRC is your friend! It’s a USB IR receiver that you can train with literally any IR remote you have. Once you set it up (and it does take a little elbow grease to train it), it just works.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Introducing Homelabinator, the easiest way to self-host.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve never understood it either. I have to assume it’s a younger generation thing that’s moving into more online spaces as that generation grows up.

  ETA will always be Estimated Time of Arrival. An actual useful acronym.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The 10 Commandments apparently mentions absolutely nothing about protecting children from abuse.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t give a shit about cultural and historical significance

  What’s holy about the land anyways?

  So do you wanna know or not…?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This is Android's new 'advanced flow' for sideloading apps without verification, includes one-day waiting period⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  For now. Don’t fight to give them an inch

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Wholesome⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s two punchlines, not one. The obvious one is the “inappropriate” joke, the second is the person on the right actual hoping for something naughty and being disappointed it was just a play on words.

  Not saying it’s a great second punchline, but that’s how I’m seeing it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Goodbye Google - I self-host everything now on 4 tiny PCs in a 3D printed rack (CaptainRedsLab)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  To me it’s separating services, which I’m getting ready to do. I’ve got 40-50 containers running at any time on my Unraid server, and I’ve been meaning to migrate some of those stacks to their own dedicated machines, mainly for downtime/maintenance on my main server.

  Now I’m not going to go out and buy several PCs just for that, but I do have some old unused laptops that would love having Linux thrown on them…

  With the hotline and guides you still had to actually play yourself. This is a step further, you just watch the game play itself.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t need a license to have the radio or even to use it to listen. Only need a license to transmit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Timberborn devs announce automation is coming to the city-builder in the 1.0 release⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re thinking of beaver bots which have been in the game for a while. This is adding QoL features that were originally mod-only.

  Using sensors, counters, timers, and relay logic, you can automate operations of your buildings, choose where the water flows as conditions change, customize the power grid’s behavior, decide when some parts of the city open, and much, much more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Elegoo Centauri Carbon questions⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve had the Elegoo Neptune 2S, Neptune 3 Pro, and now the Centauri Carbon and in general I am really happy with it. I’m not happy at the company in regards to their promises regarding the color changer for it, but for the most part they’ve been a decent company.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Best reverse proxy with ACME to run in docker⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I second SWAG. nginx, let’s encrypt, plenty of ready-to-go configs, it’s pretty great

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ConcernedApe wins my funny bit of the year award for making Clint a marriage candidate in Stardew Valley's 1.7 update⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  With luck Clint will have a good rework to make him less of the creep he is today

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Youtube frontend, Grayjay is coming to Steam⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Check out VacuumTube!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Youtube frontend, Grayjay is coming to Steam⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Started using this a couple weeks ago in my Google TV w/ Chromecast replacement (Using a Beelink mini-PC with Debian) and it’s so much better than using the desktop site

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Different strokes for different folks

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beaver city-builder Timberborn confirmed for launch on March 5⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  How long ago did you give it a try? The 1.0 release, which is playable on the beta branch on Steam, has a ton more stuff than it did in its first year of early access.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is Valve being sued for almost $900 million, but Epic Games wasn't sued when they bought Rocket League and Fall Guys to remove them from steam?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  looks at Hytale doing quite well without even touching Steam

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's up with "Plex Servers"?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Alton Brown’s enthusiastic and educational way he did the cooking show helped bring home cooking to a lot of people. For me, we watched it in my middle school’s cooking class

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can you tell when the dry filament started being extruded?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Why do I feel like I live in a perfect little world where my years old filament prints just fine without any special treatment… Sitting here at 45% humidity in the very wet pacific northwest and my PETG prints just fine. I’ve never understood it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How many containers are you all running?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  51 containers on my Unraid server, but only 39 running right now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨NO JUSTICE, NO WORK!⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not a shower thought, and breaks community rules by being political

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spelling error, wasn't disappointed.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Store Wars is so iconic, I love introducing it to people

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does Prusas textured sheet...work at all?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  With all the scrubbing you did, I’d start to think you may have stripped the surface of its coating

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bounce⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s their username, in case you aren’t familiar with Tumblr’s layout

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I properly and safely clean smartphone?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Rubbing alcohol on a towel, clorox if it’s something gross. Wipe where needed, don’t let anything soak. Small pick-like tools for ports

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you Sand Coloured PETG without loosing the Colour? Are there any Methods to Preserve or Regain the Colour?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I just use a heat gun or a quick pass with a torch. Sanding makes small imperfections that light reflects into, giving it that matte look. Heating it melts those little scratches back together so it reflects light properly again

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tawny Newsome Gives Update On Live-Action Star Trek Comedy – “We’re Ready!”⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is jumping off the back of Lower Decks, the animated series that ran for a few seasons and was pretty popular. Tawny, who I believe is spearheading this new show, played one of the main characters in Lower Decks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Linux Slicer⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Been using Orca on Debian 12/13 for a while now and it’s been smooth sailing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK Tempur Mattresses fail quickly and the warranty is fake⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My wife and I have been on our Sleep Number for almost 6 years now and it’s still going strong. Never had an issue with the pumps or anything. We got the thinnest top version and put our own 4 inch memory foam topper on top, it’s pretty nice.

  We are thinking of changing to whatever they use at Disney World’s Grand Floridian Resort. Walked 30k steps in a single day, which for an overweight inactive guy like me was absolutely brutal. Normally the next day I’d be so sore (got bad joints, they hate me), but whatever magic is in those mattresses had me up next morning feeling just fine.
