This used to work for me but unfortunately at least two places I haven’t been able to figure out any button combination that mutes them which has been infuriating.

The gas pumps that blast ads at you are driving me insane. All of the places in between my house and my work have them now.

This exactly. I’d use rsync to sync a directory to a location to then be backed up by kopia, but I wouldn’t use rsync exclusively for backups.

Definitely do not do tapes.

I’d also recommend Backblaze. Their S3 compatible storage is pretty affordable. I backup to a Kopia repo and then replicate to Backblaze nightly.

Tapes require so much more work to keep up to date and mght not even be cheaper over time.

I use GarHAge which uses open hardware and software and was pretty easy and cheap too. https://github.com/marthoc/GarHAge

It’s been working well enough for me. Before and after every section that I pull nutrients off the belt I filter spoilage to another belt running in the opposite direction. I’m too lazy to calculate actual ratios so I just kind of eyeball places where spoilage seems to be backing up and either filter it off again or add a few inserters to pass it off to bots.

I’m planning to scale up my Gleba base a bit soon (working on Fulgora now) and I’m going to try putting bioflux on trains, making nutrients at each city block. Feel like that’s going to be rough to figure out.

Everyone on the fediverse is Nicole and you can’t prove otherwise.

This is my exact concern.

If I pay for the lifetime pass now, what’s to stop them from restricting even more features behind new types of subscriptions and paywalls. “We’re adding back the ‘Watch Together’ feature but it requires a Platinum Plex subscription and will not be a part of Plex Lifetime Pass users.”

Seems kind of inevitable honestly.

If you mean that you are using Proton VPN on your Raspberry Pi to mask your downloading traffic, then no that same VPN will not help you access services like Jellyfin on your home network while you are remote.

Instead you’ll want to use something like Tailscale (or Wireguard). You run it as a service on your home network and it then becomes your own VPN that you (or others) can use to connect to your home network when you are remote.

You could run Wireguard on the same RaspberryPi that you use for downloading but I would recommend against it assuming that you’re running Proton VPN right on the host itself (and not inside a container).

I’m assuming your phone has to be rooted for this right? Or is docker running without root? I didn’t realize anything like this was possible. This is interesting.

I don’t know the details but I’ve had to ban her account several times (from a number of different source instances) for sending everyone the exact same unsolicited private message.

I never bothered to figure out of if it’s actually malicious or just some nonce trying to drive up engagement. Either way it’s a weird quirk of Lemmy right now that she’ll eventually DM you…

This is basically how I do it too.

I used to be more creative but then I got in the habit of running more servers and swapping hardware more frequently so it got harder to remember what hardware I was actually connecting to. Now they get hardware based names and everything else is named by service-based Ansible roles.

Not trying to change your mind on giving money to internet grifters but having a cell phone is pretty much a basic tool of survival these days even if you’re destitute. Phones more than a couple years old are basically e-waste and cost nothing or are donated/trashed all the time. Even a WiFi only phone can be the best tool someone has to find shelter, food and get important weather updates.

I use this extension to get SSH support for VSCodium It works great!

This is what I’m using and I haven’t found any reason to switch yet.

I use a Gnome implementation of this and it works great too.

I’m in a pretty bad fucking mood but I kind of figured that was more my problem.

Maybe next time they’ll lose by even less! That’s about the best progress I can hope for in this country in my lifetime.

A couple of multi-millionaires would pay you to stop and then you’d implode.

Still a net win for everyone else though, I support this.

I’d take it. Truly mastering any single skill is almost certainly beyond my ability anyway.

I’m only okay at some things so being okay at all things is a total win.
