I think it’s kinda better using quadlets, because I wrote some custom scripts, and quadlets made the process better. But podman compose is probably file too.

Rootless. The docker containers were rootful, hence the permission struggles.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
Yes of course. Had to spend a couple of hours fixing permission related issues.

Just did that last weekend. Nothing to do anymore. 😢

- Comment on New ntfy.sh v2.18.0 was written by AI 1 week ago:
Damn, I guess I’ll stick to the older release for now. Hopefully a viable alternative/fork comes around.

The Bengali word for multiplication is গুন, which is pronounced like goon. As the uncle with a math degree, I’m often asked to help my nephews with homework. They’re in high school. They can’t stop grinning when we talk about multiplication. Brain rot is truly cross-cultural, I guess.
- Comment on You trying to give me a heart attack? I have warrants for chrissakes! 3 weeks ago:
This happens to me pretty regularly while watching YouTube. I forget that I shouldn’t be able to hear a siren that loudly over noice cancellation even if it was right outside my door.

Then a large percentage of tall men would have to stay single, since women are shorter on average. I’ve personally met very few women who are my height, and I’m not even that tall.

I just did
uv tool install yt-dlp[default] --with mutagen. Updates are handled automatically. - Comment on Everything is awful because the people who went to business school figured out how to fuck us over as hard as possible. 5 weeks ago:
Yep. Whenever I learn that someone went to business school, and doesn’t feel any shame admitting it, I simply stop talking to them. Fucking ghouls, man. Literally destroying the earth for profit. As a society, we need to drown them in ridicule. That’s what they deserve.
- Comment on If you are not in a tech field, what got you into self-hosting? 5 weeks ago:
I’ve always been kind technically motivated. The only reason I didn’t actually get into computer science is that I had a great math teacher who made me fall in love with math.
Anyway, I love tinkering with stuff, so I inevitably got into self hosting. Nowadays, I’ve even started maintaining some self hosted software.
- Comment on France will replace Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Zoom, Webex and others with its own sovereign video conferencing application "Visio" for public officials 1 month ago:
Not surprised. From what I’ve heard from pretty much every German person I’ve talked to, Bavaria is basically their Texas.

In Bangla, we call the color peyaji, which is basically “onion-y”. It’s also what we call onion fritters, and they’re absolutely delicious.

What did Margorie Taylor Greene do again?
- Comment on My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories 2 months ago:
Yeah, like I can tell you about our communist history, or our surrealist poetry. But then you’ll call me an extremist, or even worse, a nerd.
So I keep those for when I get drunk and overshare.

We thought we’ll get artificial intelligence, but all we got was organic stupidity.
- Comment on The family name goes first in East Asian names, reflecting the fact that they view family over individual; Whatever the parents' idea of "family" is, triumphs over the children's individuality. 3 months ago:
I think you’re reading way too much into it. We Indians (most of us, people in the South often flip it) write our names similar to the west i.e. family name last. But we definitely have a “family first” culture.
- Comment on We're back 3 months ago:
I just started reading The God of Small Things. It’s been on my list for a while. But I have to read so much for my work (I’m a math researcher), that I rarely have the energy to read fiction. Thanksgiving break gave me some free days, so I guess it worked out well.
Man, it’s sad to see SDF going down so frequently. Anyone has any recommendations for alts? I just want decent uptime, and lax federation policy. (I like to choose who I block.)
- Comment on Quitting Spotify for Navidrome 3 months ago:
Symfonium is great, and in its current state, probably the best Subsonic client for android. (Tempus is good enough for me though.) But best of luck if you ever have a nontrivial issue and ask the dev for help. That’s one abrasive mf. (Just take a look here to see how full of himself they are. I’ve never seen anyone do something like this.)
That said, if it works for your needs, it’s a great app. I won’t judge anyone for using it, but I’m someone who can’t and won’t separate the art from its artist. If that applies to you, you’ve been warned.
- Comment on Quitting Spotify for Navidrome 3 months ago:
On Android, you should try out Tempus.

To anyone saying they’re happy since they already have a lifetime Plex pass, do you really think they won’t come for you too?
