It’s all going to be copyrighted but CSU’s extension is phenomenal:

Unstable branch is always Sid, 'cause he’s so unstable. They just changed experimental to rc-buggy.

I know you named Sid, but it’s a rolling release so it never gets a new name.

Toothpaste with hydrated silica might polish it off with enough elbow grease. Should be gentle enough to not fuck with the polycarbonate lens itself. I’ve done it with success but the toothpaste I used was an institutional brand and not really fit for putting in one’s mouth.

Commercial toothpaste with hydrated silica would be marketed as “microbeads” or some such.

Last I heard it was still an old-school NoDVD crack and it’s pretty fiddly. So download the demo, get the global scenery file and then apply the crack. I do not know of a trustworthy crack for it.

… I think we do?

truenas: plex/jellyfin, *arr stack

working on another (debian) machine to run nextcloud and immich, plan is to have a failover. Redundant machine would ideally be wake on LAN to save power. I already have commodity hardware for these two identical machines, otherwise I’d probably just go for a more robust single machine.

Mikrotik routerboard out front providing wireguard for one subnet. pi4 providing pihole on the wireguard subnet. This is a new router and I’m very happy with it. This coming weekend the goal is to correctly implement mangle rules (policy based routing) to combine my two WAN connections seamlessly.

So very standard setup for selfhosting with the exception of two ISPs

truenas is easiest to manage through the web service, debian ssh and VNC, mikrotik’s WInBox is just amazing, but it’s also the first “grown up” router software I’ve ever used. It’s so much better than managing PF through a ssh session.

If a frog had wings it wouldn’t bump it’s ass when it jumped.

I’ve heard these used when someone says something nonsensical, just as a completely worthless reply.

Worst case Ontario!

Usenet is still a thing and us binary kids have completely RUINED it. the *arr stack plays well with Usenet. TrueNAS Scale is Debian based and has apps and containers. Plex, Jellyfin, *arr, qbittorrent, SAB newsreader. It wasn’t trivial to learn to set up but mine is automagic now. VPN is cheap now and lets you get on the public trackers but private trackers are where it’s at for stuff too old for Usenet
