At least it's measurable, unlike most carbon credit schemes.

Is the US tax year just.... The year?

The UK tax year is the 6th-5th of April. I wonder how that happened....

(... Quarter days? And switching between the Julian and gregorian calendars apparently)

7:45 last night. Average sleep duration over the last year is apparently 8:24!

I can get away with 6 hours for a couple of nights, any more than that and I'm miserable and useless.

The article mentions wireguard having similar issues, so there are probably lots of articles for each case

All of the posts were pictures that were fine here though, it's just the titles, which in this sub are irrelevant

Got one provided by my ISP, great free router! On a new ISP now, but still using the old ISPs router!

Comes with automatic dynamic DNS built in if needed too!

That's why this post has been made to effectively poll the community

Fine to continue using it if you have it, but you would have to be crazy to start using any of their stuff if starting from scratch!

I mean, lots of the individual countries are pretty in debt.... The big ones even!

Mod probably has automod set up to notify them of comment edits in old threads.

The one thing I would ask is if they were tested in an electrically noisy environment + how long they last.

$4k is ridiculous, just buy the one that is twice the price of you want build quality.

Article's headline, not mine!

I disagree, with the headline, but it does at least mention astroturfing etc.

 

Seems to go to an alternate front end, but not load?

 

... Who would have thought?

Would link to the status page.... But it's down!

 

They sell things that come in cups, or with napkins. Lots of people cycle/run/walk here instead of driving, seems pretty stupid.

Taking away the bins doesn't mean you don't produce rubbish....

Edit: I think there is still a bin IN the cafe, but most people eat/drink outside. Lots of people asking staff where the bins are. Still hypocritical I think though? (And still mildly infuriating to remove well used bins!)

Hi, I'm looking for some recommendations, mostly looking for pointers of where to go and look at/research stuff as I have no idea what is good and what is just well advertised.

Intro: I have finally entered the world of (almost) Gigabit internet, which is opening up options with what I can host.

I currently have:

  • Pi hole on an actual RP (will probably remain there because its easy)
  • Inbound Wireguard VPN on my old router (will stop working when my old ISP stops service) EDIT: my new ISB gave me a router, but it doesn't have VPN functionality
  • Foundry VTT that I run up on my gaming machine when needed

I will probably also be upgrading my gaming PC in the next few months, so my current rig will probably be put behind the TV to use as a server and for couch gaming.

Info/recommendations I would like:

  • VPN software (I want to VPN INTO my network) My goto would be wireguard, is that still a good option? (I assume I just port forward the VPN ports to the server?)
  • Private cloud/File server: I both want to be able to occasionally (but permamently) host files publicly, but still have the main store be available on the local network only. Is that going to be two pieces of software, or just one?
  • Is a local video streaming app actually useful for a rare watcher of movies etc, or can they be streamed directly from the file server? its something that I see a lot of people talk about, but don't really understand why...
  • Is Docker the way to go for everything? or just install on the machine directly?
  • ~Piracy~ VM - Enabling the virtualisation stuff for Docker mostly breaks virtualbox (at least on windows) any recommendations for how to nicely run a VM alongside docker (if that's the recommendation)?
  • Should/Could I be hosting anything else? Foundry will probably be on there. I don't feel like I have a use for smart home stuff, so home assistant wouldn't be much use etc.
