That’s funny. I usually have Berocca (a drink with a LOT of vitamin B) to treat a hangover.

This is indeed the sit.

This is the best way. My locker at work has my offsite backup on an encrypted+compressed portable drive. I have two drives that alternate offsite so they are never all in the one spot.

Yeah. I’ve got friends that I’ve met through LAN groups. There’s even heaps of people who hang around in the same discord channels as my friends. Every now and then, we’ll find ourselves at the same BBQ and I’ll happily add them after that.

My raid has an nvme bcache on it, so it’s still fairly quick.

$100USD is just what it costs in Australia, because we get screwed for price over here.

I watched “Everything Everywhere All at Once”. But I watched parts of it while doing other things over the space of 2 years.

I honestly watch about 1 or 2 movies per year.

Haha remember when CD burners came out and a $5 CD-R had the capacity of a $200 HDD?

The kid with access to a CD burner was the king of the playground.

It’s $100 for 4TB right now.

But once you factor in RAID and alternating offsite backups, it’s really $400 for 4TB.

I go through all the older stuff I pulled from the internet. A lot of it can’t be found now.

The DRM on Blu-Ray was too harsh so I skipped the format entirely. If I couldn’t put a disc into my HTPC (Linux) and press “play”, I wasn’t interested.

My biggest rule is not on your list:

• Only add friends that you have met in person.

Also, be sure to apply Richard Stallman’s privacy rules. To summarise, all data that leaves your device is effectively out of your control. Assume all of this data is captured and stored, and will be used against you at some point.

Sweet. This will likely mean extended GrapheneOS support too.

Strange. I have a displaylink box ar home. My Ubuntu machine works first time every time. My wife’s Windows 11 PC takes 10 minutes of stuffing around every time I try to connect it.

I’ve been running a relay from home for years. I think I’ll have a shot at this. I’m not sure we want Russians on tor right now though.

The client APK that I’m running appears unaffected.

ISPs often have SMTP relay servers. If you hook into that, your mail gets instant street cred.

I’m parenting two kids with ADHD. One is also ASD.

1. Sleep. They won’t get ready for bed. They won’t go to bed. They won’t get out of bed in the morning. They won’t get ready for school.

2. They struggle a bit. They can make 5 minute friends, but they often become demanding or lash out at the first sign of frustration and their friends don’t hang around. They can offend people easily.

3. Meds. Melatonin and stimulants. Super effective. The school will call me within 90 minutes if I forget to administer meds. It’s that obvious.

4. I am burnt out. All the time. It’s hard to do anything but raise the kids and go to work.

5. Probably a reliable babysitter. The grandparents have very limited capacity.

Where I’m from, “dragged” means to be removed against your will.

You know, like “the pitcher got dragged after the first inning”.

Setting up fail2ban to block people trying to brute force the admin panel is a good start.

I think you will find that VoLTE is neither wifi nor data. It’s a LTE voice connection. A VoWifi will fallback to it.

I’ve set mine up so that entering my PIN backwards will nuke it. At which point I can ask for my phone back.
