Go go gadget-o Codeberg !

When I was young I thought “who needs 3 computers at once ?”

Now I get it.

The real question is : Why did you invite anyone over, before having a guest VLAN set up ? Classic beginner mistake.

Sounds like my AI usage is gonna fall from “infrequent” to “never”, if the ads are indeed unblockable…

I am very annoyed that I have to enable cloudflare’s JavaScript on so many websites, I would much prefer if more of them used Anubis so I didn’t have third-party JavaScript running as often.

( coming from an annoying user who tries to enable the fewest things possible in NoScript )

I’m in Europe, so if anything that would benefit us x)

In moments like this I always wonder if I should temporarily make my PC unusable by reselling the component that’s overpriced.

Then wait out the shortage and buy 4x as much RAM then x)

Almost did it with my GPU during covid.

The real solution is humane working hours. If you can’t wake up on time, it means you shouldn’t even be waking up at that time.

Some people sleep late. That’s normal. It should be accommodated for.

People make it too complicated. When I want to self host something I just install the Nix package and call it a day.

When I get around to upgradingy storage, I’ll just do a very simple RAID setup on some reliable HDDs.

I’m super allergic to unnecessary complexity. I don’t want a perfect setup, I want a setup that is reliable with almost no maintenance. I’m skipping the 80% of the effort it takes to get the last 20% of the result.

The perfect setup is a journey, not a destination. You will never be “done”, so enjoy the process.

Besides the privacy implications : trying to protect children from grooming by forbidding specific apps, is like trying to treat chickenpox with concealer.

The real problem is that our society is even producing people who would groom a child.

But as always, politicians will try to “prevent” crime at the latest possible point in the action chain, instead of going back to the source.

I dont want to understate the fact that going to the source is extremely hard to do in many cases ; but maybe people would be less disinterested in politics, if we were actually choosing between different treatments - instead of different brands of concealer - to treat our various collective cases of chicken pox.
