- Comment on Patient gamers, what are your favorite OSTs? 1 week ago:
Hollow Knight, though I don’t really listen to it outside the game.
Cyberpunk has some great songs on the radio. - Comment on Static site generator for an idiot who doesn't want to learn a new templating language just to have a blog? 2 weeks ago:
As the sibling comment says, not a static site generator. If you want to customize pretty much anything about the layout or theming you still need to use Twig, CSS and if you’re unlucky JS.

- Comment on Has anyone tried the new Resilio Sync 3? 3 weeks ago:
I mean the 4K77 Project stuff. They have everything on their own forum and only offer Resilio downloads.
- Comment on Has anyone tried the new Resilio Sync 3? 3 weeks ago:
I only used it to download certain Star Wars versions, because these nice gentlemen couldn’t be bothered to use real torrents.
No idea how you would use that as a Syncthing replacement though.

Even Mixtral is somewhat censored as they, like many others, used ChatGPT to generate question/answer pairs for the instruct finetuning.
There are finetunes that remove this censoring again like dolphin.

I’m aware of these options to do RAG, though I’m not using any yet. Only SillyTavern for chat stuff

Apologies for the late response
I can access every node by IP (IPv6 to be precise).
Discovery within a local network happens through regular broadcasts. For connecting different networks, you need to set peering addresses that are reachable and configure the other side to listen.
You only need one node per network though, the others will automatically discover the path and connect on the best route to their target. If your node in the middle falls over, any other node that’s reachable can be used instead. The Yggdrasil Blog posts have some explainations of the algorithms used.There’s no explicit gateway, but you can use standard routing and firewall tools to do whatever you want. I only use it for accessing internal stuff, not as a full VPN for my client devices, but you could probably make that work by setting one node as router and configure its Yggdrasil ip as you gateway (excluding the traffic you need to connect to the VPN).
One downside is that everything’s still in progress and most versions change significant parts of the routing scheme, meaning it doesn’t work with the previous version. It is primarily a research tool for internet scale mesh networks, but releases are also infrequent enough where you shouldn’t worry too much.
- Comment on Starfield's first DLC is one of the worst Bethesda and DLCs of all time 1 month ago:
I didn’t play it at the time because of the bugs, but from what I saw the good parts of Cyberpunk were already present. Stuff like storytelling, interesting characters etc.
Starfield has none of that. - Comment on Starfield's first DLC is one of the worst Bethesda and DLCs of all time 1 month ago:
If ES6 is just a refreshed Skyrim I really see no reason to buy it. There are much more interesting RPGs than the Bethesda style nowadays.
- Comment on Installing Jellyfin as a Podman Quadlet 1 month ago:
I use Yggdrasil now with a whitelist of public keys. Though I’m thinking about redoing my architecture in general to make key distribution easier, have more automated DNS entries and also use the tunnel for any node to node communication.
Before that I tried Tailscale with Headscale, but I didn’t want to have a single node responsible for the network and discovery.

Most VMs only run containers, but I have supporting services on every host as well. Stuff like the mesh VPN, monitoring agent or firewall.
If I want a quick overview, a quicksystemctl statuswill tell me everything I need to know. - Comment on Installing Jellyfin as a Podman Quadlet 1 month ago:
I’ve been managing my containers using the older mechanism (systemd-generate) since I started and it’s great. You get the reliable service start of systemd and its management interface. Monitoring is consistent with all your other services and you have your logs in exactly one location.
I really wouldn’t want a separate interface or service manager just because I’m running containers.

You can still use the real uBlock Origin instead of the mediocre version Google allows

- Comment on Arch Linux and Valve Collaboration 1 month ago:
Manjaro does stability by delaying everything by two weeks. That doesn’t really help at all and might hurt you for security updates, because those will wait the same two weeks.
- Comment on Arch Linux and Valve Collaboration 1 month ago:
It uses the Arch repos directly though

Which ones? I’m not aware of any besides specialised distros like SteamOS
- Comment on Ubisoft comes crawlin' back to Steam 1 month ago:
As a user there simply was/is no incentive to use other stores when the game is the same price. There has to be a reason for me to buy somewhere else.
- Comment on Network Switch 1 month ago:
Will you protect them from police raids and cover their legal costs for running a Tor node?
And it’s quite likely they only have 10G locally, with way less bandwidth going to the outside.

None of them have the manpower or money to maintain a browser engine.
For reference, Opera stopped years ago and even Microsoft gave up.
- Comment on Windows NT vs. Unix: A design comparison 2 months ago:
I’m not a kernel dev, but I’ve read often enough that there are some places where “everything is a file” somewhat breaks down on Unix. (I think /proc and some /dev)
For an “absolutely everything is a file” system have a look at plan9, it was the intended successor to Unix, but then that got popular while plan9 stayed a research project.

“The UK political system is like the US, but whimsically worse” - John Oliver
From his piece on the UK elections. Probably not 100% correct, but should be somewhat close.
