Throw it in a crontab job if you’re on Linux even, 1 line in cron to run everything there to update on whatever schedule you want

On an extra note, I actually switched to slskd (since writing that comment earlier today)because the nicotine app bugs me sometimes (it’s just the app ran in a VM), so far I like it

Protonvpn lets you port forward. I use docker and have a gluetun container that connects to protonvpn, all of my other docker containers for sailing the high seas (arr suite, qbittorrent, sabnzbd, soulseek client, etc) are routed through it and I have port forwarding setup to the ones that need it. For soulseek I use nicotine-plus-docker, all traffic is routed through the gluetun container, the port is forwarded, and a bit shy of 700 gb uploaded since March so I can confirm it works well.

I don’t think the protonvpn Linux client supports port forwarding yet so only docker things can do it right now afaik, but anything I want permanently through VPN runs in docker anyway

I occasionally have issues with posting comments on proton VPN, but it’s inconsistent

Yep it’s still chill. The war just started so I’ve spent the past 2 hours driving materials from my regiments stockpiles to the Frontline, eventually partisans (enemies behind the Frontline) took out my truck so I flagged the location, next time I drove through they were all gone and I kept delivering supplies. Even if you mess something up in logistics, no one is going to get mad at you. It’s competitive in that each team hates each other, but largely unless you start trolling or team killing people are positive.

If you do end up getting it I can help ya get started learning stuff if you need

To be fair, a savings account at chase gets less than 1% apr last time I checked

The next war in foxhole starts today, it’s a war MMO and I highly recommend it. No subscription (one time $30 purchase on steam), no microtransactions, no paid expansions, no cosmetic bs, grind is optional. New players are in the same spot as veterans, all resources are shared (regiments/people can have private stockpiles, but they decay after 48 hours of being inactive) and are all made by players. You don’t get anything for making or transporting supplies except for the joy of supporting the war effort - which is good because if no one made supplies, no one could fight.

Want to chill? Mine scrap and make basic materials, throw in your nearest seaport for anyone to take (or put in your regiments stockpile if you’re in one). Or transport supplies from far backline stockpiles to Frontline/closer via truck, train, or boat. Or drive supplies to the Frontline, just make sure you have a gas mask and radio! Or make bullets, medical supplies, or anything else in the game at factories. Or trucks, cars, boats, tanks, trains, etc.

Want to plan? Either start building up production centers at the start of the war, rebuild them as we take land, or build defenses in the backline or on the front.

Want to fight? Get on a ship crew in an artillery gun and listen to your captain to tell you when and where to fire. Get in a tank with a crew and go balls to the wall on the front line. Grab a gun and some supplies and charge into trench warfare. Mortars? Yep. RPG’s? Yep. Want to be a doctor? Move with friendlies and fix them up when they get messed up, or carry them back to your hospital to get new supplies for people to spawn from.

Want to be sneaky? Sneak past the Frontline and sabotage their logistics people or buildings.

Want to be a gigachad? Join the wardens now.

Pickling and canning is better than refrigeration - until opened

My CTO thoroughly believes that within 4-6 years we will no longer need to know how to read or write code, just how to ask an AI to do it. Coincidentally, he also doesn’t code anymore and hasn’t for over 15 years.

I think it was partially to make the statement more sensational, because 60 sq km is ~23 sq miles, so it barely makes the top 30 biggest games by map size (as of some 2023 articles)

sounds of the fan for a raspberry pi running pihole begin to filter through the background noise ya’ll allow ads on your network?

Quick note, duckduckgo has a free alias email forwarding service and it integrates with bitwarden

The good f word, not the bad f word

My maternal grandmother - extremely nice and sweet, died of breast cancer when I was a kid so I don’t remember much else about her.

My maternal grandfather - convicted for soliciting an underage prostitute (undercover cop), that’s all I know about him and it’s enough. Not sure if he’s even alive.

Paternal grandparents - psychotic religious fanatics (burned our Harry Potter and Mickey the sorcerer books while babysitting when I was a baby, killed multiple of my dad’s pets growing up, etc). Have only seen that grandmother when the grandfather died and at a Christmas party a month later - still psychotic and super rude.

My parents - nicest people you’ll ever meet, I have basically no bad memories from being raised (except my dad only makes broccoli and cauliflower by microwaving it)

He is partially right - there are people making a lot of money from climate change… Or at least from causing it

I personally use lidarr to download and picard to tag, but use plex/plexamp to listen locally and on my phone

If you use the paid version of proton you can use basically any third party client (I use thunderbird)

There are an infinite number of solutions, 42 is in at least one of them

Seconding (thirding) logseq! Your daily journals all show up in one long scrollable page (delimited by the date and such) so you can easily see what happened previous days, etc. If you click one it brings up that page in full screen if you want to focus on it, it works very nicely imo.

You also aren’t limited to just journaling, you can use it for a pkm system. Say that you journal for that day about learning something, you can do this:

• Today I looked into [[eulers_formula]] ** Created by Leonard Euler ** e^(ix) = cos(x) + i sin(x) ** Etc

When you go to the eulers_formula page, all of that info will be in the links section without having to leave the page. I personally do all that, then write my own summary of the info on the page itself, so I have the original content and my take on it.

It’s also fully foss, you can pay for their sync service to have it available on multiple devices all the time and it’s fully encrypted in transit so they can’t see your info, I personally just use syncthing and haven’t run into any issues using it on my phone and computer unless you try to modify the same file at the same time (which isn’t really something you would ever do)

I mean, overwatch was good, until blizzard did what blizzard does
