Ok. 3rd day into holiday break.

It’s staring to feel like a holiday.

A theme park does help with this. 🎢🎡

Tis the season for many B grade Christmas “Hallmark” movies. They’re always so predictable.

I hear Master Chief is coming back to Fortnite. It may need to finally purchase some V bucks. 😏

I’ve never spent money on it.

But I’m a big Halo fan. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Totally. Previously I used Apple Music and I noticed the quality difference straight away moving to YT Music - just wasn’t as good.

Now I notice the difference again going from YT Music to flac files from the CD rips!

I use YT Music as I have YT Premium.

But recently have been recollecting CDs and ripping them into my Plex Server and using Plex Amp. Works a treat.

I guess I’m now self hosting my own Nostr Relay now via Tor 🧡

I get that, but I’m running BTC core server natively in macOS, only installed StartOS via UTM as VM to setup Alby Hub.

So 128GB is a waste after the fact.

Knowing now it’s only a “recommendation” rather than a requirement as the documentation says, I would have only set it up as 32GB and saved a bunch.

I would have thought loosing remote access to your wallet (ie not being able to view, spend or receive funds) would be classified as a critical fix. 🤷🏻‍♂️

If so, the documentation should be updated as it says…

“Minimum requirement is 128GB”

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 🥳 nostr:note16exutr06064a370xs2vgsksuet3ncwsl43f58tf5y2wn9dscu5xscfjhzg

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

I always feel like I need to talk more online.

But I forget. Soz.

Nevertheless, I appreciate that you’re here.

I’ve just setup my first Bitcoin Core; it’s running on my MacMini via Tor. Also have Sparrow Wallet installed locally connected to the core using my Trezor.

I’m now verifiable. 💪🏻

New 4K UHD addition to rip via #MakeMKV into #Plex is #Alien, comes with both the Theatrical and Director’s Cut. 👽

I want Sidecar + Universal Control on macOS with an iPad + iPhone Mirroring to all work at the same time together.

Sadly, if I choose Sidecar, which is more important for my situation right now, the Universal Control + iPhone Mirroring is turned off.

Can't a man have it all?

Started Season 4 of #Yellowstone, and wow, the end of Season 3 was quite the cliff hanger. The end/beginning of these seasons 3-4 have a Breaking Bad and/or The Walking Dead intensity level.

Impressed with how the series has come so far.

Can someone remotely initiate my iPhone to explode?

Or even my Watch? 🧐

Almost finished watching Season One of #FallingSkies with nostr:npub1haqy7skcw3uuhe8xm4nkvjj2lkejgfq4zkutg74gq4k379433eysu4amzm. It’s been fun revisiting the show again!

My 7 y/o son found the Dr Doom outfit/suit and won #Fortnite all by himself. That’s a big deal to him, so am proud of him. 👏🏻🙌🏻

Tonight’s movie was the 2nd in Nolan’s taken on #Batman - The Dark Knight. One of my all time favourites. Truely a classic.

Learned about the discontinued DIVX disc format recently. Not to be confused with the video CODEC.

Major selling points were being able to “purchase” a movie/disc, take it home and watch it like a rental (watch it multiple times within 48hrs), never have to return it, have the ability to rent it again or buy it (pay to play model) or just throw away the disc.

What a stupid idea that was.

The Untouchables has been my favourite movie since I can remember. I loved the clothing styles/era, the acting and the story.

Latest 4K UHD that I picked up on special. Now it’s ripping into #Plex time thanks to #MakeMKV.

A family classic. #Ghostbusters II

Do you have a family member that sends you daily links/videos about milk toast topic/news? #asknostr

Saw this today - terrible. Not only coming to the USA, but the west as a whole if people don't push back hard enough.

What was the best game on the original #Xbox?

For me, #Halo 2 hands down.
