I wanted to get started without having to learn a bunch of Linux networking and docker stuff so I used this pre-built mediastack compose file.

Then I spent weeks fixing all the problems with it, upgrading the outdated packages that they pinned, sorting through the outdated/incomplete setup docs, and disabling the apps I don’t need (so many monitoring dashboards without config instructions). Now I know a bunch of Linux networking and docker stuff.

I’d still recommend mediastack as a reference just because it’s a good example of how to set up secure internet access (the diagrams of the network architecture are great) but their “full download vpn” config is overkill (most of this stuff doesn’t really need to be accessible from the Internet in the first place) and even their “mini download vpn” unnecessarily puts the Usenet download client (SABnzbd) in a VPN.

I’ve seen a few folks mention trash guides, while they’re great, their quality settings weren’t written for current hard drive prices so you might want to skip the part where you crank up all your preferred bitrates to the maximum.

One thing I added which is haven’t seen mentioned yet is Tunarr to create live tv channels for shows I like to have on in the background. It’s great when it works but it’s in active development so I frequently have issues with it. Thankfully the devs are responsive and helpful.

Bidets are cool but y’all need to eat more fiber.

So this?

You mean MyCompany::Array, not using the word “vector” has gotta be their primary reason for changing all the names.

It’s been forever since I’ve written C++ at a place that didn’t have their own version of STL where they used different names for everything.

+1 I only keep multiples of commonly used cables and I use ziplock bags to keep cables of the same type together in my cable box so it’s easy to tell if I’ve accumulated too many.

But what’s supposed to make a potential customer excited about that? Looking at your page, all I see is what you call labels, extensions to your email address separated by a “-” which seem identical to the “+” addressing supported by most big email services except that you automatically set up rules to bounce emails sent to the home label instead of the user needing to manually set that up.

Maybe this works some clever way under the hood but nothing on your site really tells me why I should be interested or excited about it. Every email provider advertises that they have some “unique” solution to spam and most of these work well enough for most people so you need more than just that to have a good selling proposition when you’re not priced competitively.

Fair use requires you to analyze or comment on the work or transform the original work in some way, non-commercial use isn’t enough on its own.

The real reason it’s “ok” is that it’s unlikely the owner would be able to prove damages from someone using their image as an avatar so it’s not worth taking anyone to court over it because all they would get is the judge ordering them to stop and a C&D is cheaper if the owner really cares about stopping you.

I do because bazzite consistently kernel panics for me roughly every third wake-from-sleep with nothing in the logs.
