Huh good to know thanks!

Maybe it’s ignorance on my part, but my office and the router in the house aren’t on the same circuit.

Or, at least they have different sections in the breaker.

House is brand new, put up in 2021

You can TRY power line adapters:

Their application can be hit or miss, but mine have been perfect. Had them just under 2 years. Able to get full bandwidth and no discernable latency addition

Aye it’s the humanity problem.

Surrounding yourself with people that believe nonsense only reinforces the idea; it really plays into our necessity of “group”.

Gotta give props to the guy for getting out of the cycle.

Yep same thing.

Moved from Nova to Niagara after trying about 30 different launchers (closed and open) and I don’t think I’ll be changing for quite a long time.

Honestly the single biggest thing to self-hosting is breaking stuff.

Host stuff that seems interesting to you, and dick around with it. If it breaks, read the logs and try to fix. If you can’t, revert to a backup and try to reproduce.

If you start out with things that interest you, you’ll more likely stick with the hobby. From there you can move to hosting things with external access - maybe vpn inside your own network through your router?

From there, get your security in line and host a basic webserver. Something small, low attack vector, and build on it. Then expand!

Definitely recommend docker to start with - specifically docker compose. Read the documentation and mess around!

First container I would host is portainer. General web admin/management panel for containers.

Good luck :).

… I blame the kid’s sleep regression and my lack thereof.

I’ll give this a shot, thanks!

Honestly I’m not super concerned about the contents being public.

As far as a forum/wiki, I’d like it to look like it was meant for this job, those would be a little more on the hefty side just for posting some images/text to.

I would build it myself but I’ve got a 4 month old. Not a ton of time to sit down in React.

This is close, but I’d like to be able to manually add text to each review (for my benefit really) and general x/y star reviews for them.

Also it really wouldn’t need Auth - I’d be the only one actually editing the pages.

This is oddly similar to some informal workups I’ve done for our work network.

Nice work 👍.

On Samsung devices you can go into settings and add a “routine” under Modes And Routines that automatically enables auto rotate for certain apps, and disables it when you leave the apps.

Alternatively I believe you can do the same if you have a license for Tasker.

I remember when I first used Tor. I was like 14.

Found the silk road when it was still up. Poked around for a bit. Cool.

Next onion site I found was also cp. That image is burned into my skull forever. Uninstalled Tor and never went back. Hard pass.

This is what I’m waiting for before I host my own as well. Rather not have to worry that much about constantly having to admin out CSAM.

I honestly can’t tell if you’re trolling.

Also, “limiting their consumption to the occasional worthwhile thing” can also be written as:

“spend their well-earned time actually watching something worth the investment”

And “they might even assuage their guilt by paying for it…” as:

“if they find content they enjoy, they’d like to show that monetarily and hopefully boost the production of more content of that same caliber”

Straight black but I still consider ethical:

The entire “going to the movies” experience is terrible for me and my wife, only going to get worse with a runt on the way. It’s certainly a fault of the theater I try and attend, but I’m not driving 2 hours for a decent viewing experience.

I pirate like CRAZY. BUT if I find a film/TV show I really enjoy, I certainly do my part in word-of-mouth or digital marketing for them. It’s certainly once it’s left the theaters but I wasn’t going to that anyway. It also gives a chance for older films/series to get some funding that I may not have picked up otherwise.

Occasionally if there’s a film/show that’s a standout, I’ll buy a physical copy. Honestly I never open them as I have a more convenient digital copy on plex but I do put in some for it.

That said, watch Grave Encounters 1 (not 2…) and Cabin in the Woods. I believe they’re both on Netflix but absolute top tier movies if you’re into horror for GE or horror parody for CITW, cabin possibly being in my top 5 of all time.

Also that said, I’ve seen way too many episodes of MTV Cribs for me to care about it too much >:(

I use it with my android.

You can just manually copy the library over once iTunes adds it, but if you use the DoubleTwist player, you can sync over smart playlists and such.

It’s a pain in the ass for sure, but even still I haven’t found a better music manager.

Soulseeker for some excellent yo-ho-ho and honestly iTunes for management.

I didn’t know white engrams dropped in Destiny?

Imo, depending on the age of the “older” games, it may not be worth it to do an SSD and go for pure storage with an external HDD.

Alternatively, if you’re dying for speed, get this or similar and an M.2 case that matches your IO

Just because something is old knowledge doesn’t mean it’s common knowledge!

People get so weird about that. Yeah I knew, but before I knew, I didn’t.
