- Comment on How do you monitor your servers / VPS:es? 10 months ago:
Sometimes I just sit and stare at my apache access logs because I’m bored
GoAccess is pretty nice for a broad overview of Apache logs, also.
For other services I generally just look at them every now and then and if something looks off I investigate. I found a cryptominer on my network once because it was spamming DNS and that shows up in DNS logs.
- Comment on The first EV with a lithium-free sodium battery hits the road in January - Sodium-ion batteries have lower density but are cheaper and perform better in cold weather 10 months ago:
Fair enough. The actual car I was thinking of apparently did run on lithium, too, so it was a dumb comment.

I honestly thought only paid users could use the official forums…
I’ll post it there, too! Thank you

- Comment on Starlink loses out on $886 million in rural broadband subsidies 11 months ago:
I’m not disagreeing, but who can stand up against corporate bullying? The government. Make the government do it. The corporate world gets away with it because the politicians turn a blind eye because they’re not held accountable because not enough people stand together. People have bled for the rights that “privileged” people have, it didn’t come free.
- Comment on Starlink loses out on $886 million in rural broadband subsidies 11 months ago:
Demand more of your local government instead of pulling the privilege card.

- Comment on YouTube warns it might make your viewing experience worse if you don't turn off your ad-blocker 11 months ago:
I’ll gloss over that you either missed my point or ignored it; I don’t use YouTube because it’s too shit, actually.
I don’t pay for any Google services, not that I’m using any with any consistency anymore, for the same reason that I don’t use them anymore. Google cannot be trusted to provide a good service, paying costumer or not. If you punish me for using the free product, why would I ever trust you? Steam doesn’t slap me across the face at every chance it gets when I don’t spend money on their store for a long period of time, yet I have no issue paying for the games I do want to play despite piracy being completely risk-free by comparison.
- Comment on YouTube warns it might make your viewing experience worse if you don't turn off your ad-blocker 11 months ago:
The reason I don’t bring them revenue is because they continue to make the experience worse. Paying isn’t going to make that stop, it’s just going to temporarily shift the bar a little; the bar is however still moving towards a shittier experience for all.
Why would I look at this and go “Yes, I’ll pay!” There are a lot of services I would genuinely pay for if I didn’t have an impending dread that the service is just about to get worse again regardless of if I pay or not. It’s not like paying is a magic bullet, either, it comes with a ton of different issues like privacy. They still sell your soul to advertisers if you pay them.

SEO sucks My site, which has actual content, doesn’t even show up on google. Someone else with the same domain and a different tld who has no content on his site is at the top. They have a marketing team, how am I gonna compete? Don’t worry about SEO, just have good content. People are gonna find it, SEO or not.
- Comment on Replace Spotify 1 year ago:
People will recommend Navidrome- but if you’re like me then your music collection is organized by folders and not metadata. Navidrome does not and will never (developer said as much) support folder-based browsing.
I recommend using Gonic github.com/sentriz/gonic and then a compatible Subsonic client. Gonic has been the simplest and smoothest out-of-house music streaming experience for me.

Reverse proxy maybe?
mydomain.org/nextcloud gets reverse-proxied to mydomain.org:1234 and will appear as the former.

I’m literally not gonna read the rest of this, whoever wrote it doesn’t have any stake in this or they’d know how dumb that statement is.

I use pfsense on my own metal. I can recommend it- never caused me any issues in the 4 years I’ve been using it, now. Even seamlessly updated major version twice.
