Nice. What are you leaning towards?
Prebuilt/OEM or custom/homebrew?
I went with plug and play myself, Synology.
This upgrade was totally worth it.
Everything is working perfectly.
More importantly, it’s very fast. 🚀
✅ Bitcoin Node
✅ Lightning Node
✅ Relay Node
✅ Plex Server
✅ Personal Cloud
Running your own everything FTW.
As an Australian Polling Council member, they’re meeting transparency and standards; they use national preference flows for standard 2PP.
The hypothetical Labor vs One Nation 2PP (using Hunter flows) is clearly labelled exploratory — not their main result.
Polling isn’t the be-all and end-all though, but ignoring the obvious shift would only be sticking one’s head in the sand.
Hardly a Reddit-style poll. DemosAU is a professional pollster (Australian Polling Council member), using a weighted, nationally representative online panel of over a thousand people — the same method as Newspoll, Resolve, and YouGov use.
Reddit polls are open and unweighted. This one is properly sampled and reported by serious outlets.
Outlier? Sure. Straw poll? No.
I’m fascinated and optimistic that One Nation has risen to the same poll level as the Liberal Party in Australia. It feels like a real shift is in the air—One Nation is poised to take the lead. #auspol
Would be cool if the Yaki client had PiP for videos so you can scroll and watch.
The moment when you suddenly pulled your lower back out and you instantly feel 30 years older than you are. 🤦🏻♂️
You certainly are reminded how much you take your back for granted.
Afternoon movie time.
Can anyone guess what it is?
Friday late night comedy + MakeMKV ripping FTW 💿
I feel 2026 is the year I'll post more.
Next week I’m upgrading my network to WIFI7 and 10Gbps to support our new 2Gbps ISP speeds. Can’t wait to set it all up.
NAS 10GbE
MacMini M4 10GbE
My Plex server is gonna fly.
New DCA setup is 💵 into nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 ⚡️to nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm Hub, and it’s ⚡️fast and worked flawlessly. Very happy.
I’m more quality over quantity.
More bits the better IMO.
Plex server can do that on the fly if you choose to “download” a movie to bring it offline on your phone.
For me, I want all the original bits on the server and let it encode on the fly per device if required.
100% am, I’m a digital purist hoarder.
120GB just for one extended film. 🤣🙈
Another physical media pickup this week for a MakeMKV rip into Plex is LOTR, both theatrical and extended editions. 
Today’s physical media pickup for a MakeMKV rip into Plex is the Hobbit, both theatrical and extended editions. 
My children love listening to [on their own accord] The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, Elvis, The Beach Boys etc.
I consider that a parenting win.
The extra day off today for a long weekend was a nice way to recover from all the political nonsense.
The illusion of democracy wears thin as the years go on. #auspol
Hey nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm a small suggestion for your new macOS hub application is allowing it to continue running in the background when you close the window (rather than closing the node).
Workaround is simply using CMD+H to hide the app works well in the mean time.
Just migrated my Alby Hub from Start9 (that was running via a VM on macOS) to the native macOS Alby Hub app and the process was flawless.
Well done nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm, and thank you 👏🏻 🙏🏻
Ok, nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll has finally added the nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm update that I believe should fix this connection issue once and for all!
Thanks nostr:npub1zk6u7mxlflguqteghn8q7xtu47hyerruv6379c36l8lxzzr4x90q0gl6ef 🥳

I don’t understand why nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll requires you to use up 128GB of space as a minimum for its #StartOS.
I’ve got nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm & Nostr Relay installed and running and only using 1.2% of disk space (1.43GB).
When you only have 256GB in your host, Mac Mini, that’s insane.
Hey nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll can you please implement nostr:npub1getal6ykt05fsz5nqu4uld09nfj3y3qxmv8crys4aeut53unfvlqr80nfm's latest update to allow users to apply the update?
I’ve had the same issue arise and had to reboot StartOS again to resolve the wallet connection issue. nostr:note16exutr06064a370xs2vgsksuet3ncwsl43f58tf5y2wn9dscu5xscfjhzg
Almost finished watching Season One of #FallingSkies with nostr:npub1haqy7skcw3uuhe8xm4nkvjj2lkejgfq4zkutg74gq4k379433eysu4amzm. It’s been fun revisiting the show again!
