Plex is good for those in our circles who only know of VPNs from ads on YouTube.

Jellyfin is great and all but not something you can just expose to the internet and hope for the best.

Mine from 2020 has not installed any crapware, the only windows machine its been attached to the wife’s government issued laptop which is locked down so probably not a good indication.

Probably have to look at a Chinese monitor next time around, smeznug do smeznug things and now LG. Not much else to turn to.

It probably has a bunch of ‘MDF’ rolled into the price from AIBs and the like.

Hilux are not small, look at a Ford Falcon AU Ute.

I only have one UBI AP that was swiftly flashed to openwrt watching the shitshow unfold during CV19. I stepped up to a product manager role for a computer component store, took on lots of brands UBI included.

I didn’t get the hype behind UBI but they sold well and kept my KPIs on track, but working with / being an enthusiast I guess gave me a different perspective from old Joe down the road.

Interesting on forgejo I’ll investigate as that’s the container I use.

Cloudflare was easy enough as I already use cloudflare tunnels to expose some internet facing services I run. But reducing the reliance on providers is something that I want to achieve.

Yeah was thinking that will be the next step.

How are you combatting the web crawlers / AI shitfest?

My small repos were getting smashed for a while. Was using cloudflare tunnels, have had to put up some barriers via cloudflare to curb the traffic. Probably will investigate some wifu defence but it’s just another thing to do.

Last 30 days images below.

My git isnt anything special, just mirrored from my Codeburg.

Nah, it says their enspired by. Not that it has one onboard.

Not to take away from your post but the trick to riding a bike is not to go slow. The faster you go the easier it is to balance.

Just like walking a tray of glasses, if you slow down (especially abruptly) the change in momentum can topple some, but keep moving and ‘she’ll be right’.

Currently work for an organization helping people on centrelink / workforce benefits get a job.

I’ve managed pubs, nightclubs and restaurants. Been a dishy and wait person.

Managed a warehouse for consumer pc parts, with the same mob I did marketing and procurment dealing with some big international brands and local distributors.

Worked for a government body (think motor registry but broader) assisting people with forms, really just helping them get across the line before they enter the queue.

Climbed towers and installed mobile equipment / antennas replacing the analog mobile network (3g installs). Installed police cameras in back of their vans along with police radio installs with the same rigging mob.

Highest qualification I have is year 12, some certificates for safe work / working at heights and some hospo related tickets. Nothing special, just a string of random jobs.

KeepassDX is great, works most of the time finding fields in Firefox. Can use biometrics to unlock your database if desired too.

Uses the same databases as I use on my laptop / desktop with no issues.

I had a laptop running as a container machine / image processing for frigate using its iGPU.

Kicked around in my rack without the screen housing, or the bottom housing for a few years. Didn’t have ethernet, so I grabbed a M.2 a+e to Ethernet adaptor which worked a champion.

Until I let it short out on the tray it was resting on, wasn’t expensive and replaced it with a cheap erying ES motherboard.

If you aren’t using the wifi onboard you may be able to remove that M.2 a+e and install a dual sata m.2

Does depend on motherboard but possible.

Don’t worry, M$ say you can launch the command line in 90ms now!

Cant wait to see if Erying get some ES boards on the market from this generation.

My 13th gen Erying ES board is an absolute champion, I’d love to retire my power hungry 9th gen 9900k file / media server with something more capable in the iGPU department.

You mean the software package from the manufacturer and not a driver?

Nothing also do some. Nothing Ear (Stick)

However I’m not sure if they are currently being produced, they do some open, over ear buds however; they all have the rubbish pinch gestures vs the old touch from the AirPods 1 / 2.
