For-ev-er. For-ev-er.
Okay I'm glad I'm not the only one that thinks they're fucking weird and don't trust them.
Haha I get asked the same thing. "I don't know honey, ask the people who made me this way" 😂
I treat them like Nostradamus' predictions: don't read them to literally and you can find a situation it applies to.
So sorry. I love my pup more than life and I can't imagine that feeling of loss.
I hated fountain. The UIUX is horrible. They also don't let you withdraw funds back from your wallet for some arbitrary and undefined waiting period.
It's not perfect. For example, I want to get away from Plex but Jellyfin has not been a viable alternative for me yet. But all in all I feel I have a great mix of convenience, privacy, self sovereignty and capability.
All kinds man. I have a pretty ridiculous homelab set up simply because of who I am as a person (and engineer).
My data (~120TB) is stored on a Synology NAS and I have a r610 with dual Xeons 32 threads and 192GB of RAM which does my compute. My service stack is all in Docker.
For services I have:
- Wireguard VPN for connectivity away from home
- Bitcoin infrastructure (core, lnd, lnbits, mempool, explorer, joinmarket)
- Matrix/Synapse for encrypted & private comms
- nostr-rs for Nostr relay
- Hugo static site generation for several different sites/blogs I run
- Pihole for blocking trackers/malicious things
- Documents, photos, drive are all Synology because their software is really good
- Sonarr, Lidarr, Radarr stack for media
- Plex for video consumption
- Navidrome for audio media streaming
- Vaultwarden for password management
- Gitea for code repo
- FreshRSS for RSS fetching
- Hauk for location sharing with friends/family
- ihatemoney for expense sharing/tracking
Those are my most used. There's also a smattering of other things I'm POC'ing or just playing with not really worth mentioning.
I'm diving deep on Meshtastic. I just built clients for my fiance and I and have plans to put routers around town.
Courts aren't how we fix this.
I've been beating the privacy drum for years and all my friends think I'm a tinfoil hat nut. But this shit is real.
It takes a lifestyle shift to fight back but you can do it. I use GrapheneOS on a pixel. Linux on all my computers. I host a server with services that replace centralized services.
It makes total sense now. Damn seriously never something I had considered before.
Woah I never considered regulation is why we don't have flying cars. Is that really why?
How's the quitting going nostr:npub14xu4ykvj5jr2594nc8fln5mqf09q3u7ptdcj6ur3rwdwekxrm3zq86428l? I haven't forgotten and I hope you're smoke free!
Damn how'd you get that awesome char/crust and not even hit 120° yet
