  • Podcasts are my primary use case (my partner uses audiobooks exclusively), and while it works rather well, I want to put in the caveat that there’s no working playlist functionality in the app, and IME headset controls don’t work from FF for Android.

    That’s not a deal breaker for me, but it was a massive disappointment when I switched over. But the lack of playlist functionality in the app only annoys me when I want to follow one of the shorter news feeds, since I have to stop and select the next track every 5 min as the episode ends. No issue with that feed from the browser, so meh.

    Works great through my reverse proxy/cloudflare tunnel setup, so not too many actual complaints.





  • Tools like restic and Borg and so critical that you will regret not having had them sooner.

    I just experienced this when a little mini PC I bought <2y ago cooked its nvme and died this month. Guess who has been meaning to set up backups on that guy for months?

    Unfortunately, that nvme is D. E. D. And even more unfortunately, that had a few critical systems for the local network (like my network controller/DHCP). Thankfully it was mostly docker containers so the services came up pretty easy, but I lost my DBs so configs and data need to be replicated :(

    The first task on the new box was figuring out and automating borg so this doesn’t happen again. I also set up backups via my new proxmox server, so my VMs won’t have that problem too.

    Now to do the whole ‘actually testing the backups’ thing.

    What the fuck are you smoking friend, my entire friend group is visibly queer and the only option we had available was Kamala. I would lash out for your ignorance, but you have no way of knowing and are extremely raw.

    They spit in our faces and minimize a fucking GENOCIDE and then expect us to vote for them?

    And instead you spit right back and welcomed it on yourself and those like you and I love. This isn’t to vote shame, it’s just acknowledging objective reality.

    I’m so sorry for you and those around me who are going to suffer for the choices made yesterday, but you really need to stop and think about the choices available to you in this limited and frankly fucked up world. I stand by my statement, no matter how many people refuse to accept that bad situations have awful choices with worse outcomes for wanting to die in a particular hill.

    Fuck them and fuck you too.

    I hope you’re able to find safety and peace, and that you’re willing to let yourself see past your morality to the bare facts of reality. Electoralism fucking sucks, but you can now see what happens when morality outweighs pragmatism.

    Goodbye, I don’t have the mental bandwidth to deal with such bitter and misplaced hatred, especially when trying to keep the sanity of those around me melting down. Stay safe.

    Edit: ‘go to brunch’ lol, fuckers don’t know shit about what I’ve done and are just salty I have a different opinion, so clearly I’m just a brunch ally.

    I’d tell you to get fucked, but I wish the best for you, even if you’re lashing out in ugly ways. Find peace friends, I’ll still be in the front lines even if you spit on me.
