Locked me out of my apartment. Stepped out onto the back patio to water some plants. I closed the door behind me so he wouldn’t get out. He (my cat) did a big stretch and pulled down the lock. I was about to go to work. No keys, no wallet, no phone, no shoes.

From my experience in IT, even those people use up all their RAM on browser tabs. Any user I support that has 8GB is complaining of poor performance.

States are killing people all the time, as are billionaires and corporations. I’ve got problems with the death penalty in practice too, but I’m not giving a single fuck about something like this.

I do your second suggestion. I have a cheap ($5/mo) vps from digital ocean that proxies all the traffic to/from my home server via wireguard. There’s a few tutorials out there that explain how to configure iptables to forward traffic from one network interface to another on the vps.

Goddam roomba!

Hasn’t happened yet.

I just say: “Well, I’m going to bed. You’re welcome to stay if you like. I can bring you some bedding for the couch. Otherwise, please lock the door on your way out.”

And also cited OAS lmao!

Tune your consciousness into the vibrations. Duh.

Advice that older people give you is just them looking at their own regrets. You may not have the same ones, so take it with a grain of salt. You have your one life to live so do whatever you want.

I like to tell people: “if there’s one thing I know, it’s trivia!”

Spoiler: they won’t.

But you are fully aware who’s wielding the tools you build…

After yoloing it for years, I finally deployed an offaite backup this month. I also host on Nextcloud (at my house). While I do have a local disk backing up my Nextcloud install, I didn’t have any backups of the external media hosting my photos.

Finally, I ordered a 10TB external drive and plugged it into a raspberry pi I had sitting around. Using wireguard and restic, I now have an offsite backup at a friend’s house!

Is there any serious analysis that anticipates that? I mean, a flurry of meteor strikes could also do it, I suppose.

There is no scenario in which Russia gives up control of Crimea. It is simply too strategically important.

For me, I find it sad. There is so much pressure on people (especially women) to look a certain way. I find beauty in uniqueness. When a certain “look” becomes fashionable, you see a lot of people get the same face. Then, you see people get “addicted” to the surgeries, and end up looking totally alien.

I set mine up with Debian and Swizzin community edition.

When you run ipconfig in the windows terminal, it will give you a bunch of info. I can’t remember the exact name it will be, but it’s almost certainly going to be 192.168.something.something. The only other line that will look similar will be the ‘default gateway’, which will probably end with .1.

Go into the settings of that smb thingie on your iPhone, and change the address (192.168.etc) to match what the Windows machine says.

As for setting the static IP, I can help more if you tell me the make and model of your router.
