I can’t wait for someone to call the writers and editors of Jewish Currents anti-semites.

Bob Pinciotti at it again.

A good induction top with the right cookware can be as good or better than a good gas cooktop.

For about 10,000 Palestinians.

I thought he was Tom’s uncle.

And in the US they insist religion will cure it. My sister in law had to demand medication, she just kept getting referred to AA. Guess which one finally got her sober?

Lol, might as well change his surname to Kim Jong.

I think you a word.

Wow, gate keeping self hosting. I guess there’s one in every community.

No alt-text makes me sad. Can’t be an xkcd without it.

Private mode is absolutely not private at work even if it’s enabled. They see everything you access with their network and know exactly where the traffic is coming from and going to.

I won’t even connect to a wireless network at work with my phone without VPNing to my home network to browse. People use their work computers to browse for personal reasons? They are all.

I’ve been with namecheap a long long time now. They rarely raise prices and it’s usually because upstream costs go up and everyone is raising prices. I’m a happy customer and ain’t switching. I don’t get bothered for endless upgrades. I only get emails when my domains come up for renewal or on the very rare occasion this happens.

Stupid people are always so convinced that they are smarter than everyone else.

I’ve also never had that issue. It’s had quite a few updates since I started using it.

Netdata is great and easily deployed via docker. I ran it bare metal before and was also pleased if that’s your preference.

Yeah, the situation you’re describing is impossible with docker because if you set it up as intended there’s no way for your containers to access the Internet without going through the VPN.

I have been using this for months and really like it. But I will warn people how easy it well it works depends heavily on the provider and protocol you use.

I have some experiences below, but I would just ask the creator of Gluetun what they use because it will be the best documented and supported.

Cyberghost worked well with OpenVPN but they do not allow port forwarding so I switched to PureVPN. PureVPN was awful, they allow port forwarding but you have to use very specific servers and there’s no way to control that with Open VPN on Gluetun because the server list is not up to date. I tried Wireguard and it worked but the slightest connection drop would cause port forwarding to stop working and I would have to redo the connection with new keys and all every time. Eventually it just stopped working no matter what I did and support was kind enough to refund me. I asked for the remainder of my subscription and not only did they not try to argue they gave me a full refund so that’s points for PureVPN.

Right now I’m using AirVPN which works really well. Once in a while port forwarding will stop working. But if I switch to another port it works again, so I just keep two ports open and change things client side and that seems to be the path of least resistance.

Another nice feature of Gluetun is an http proxy you can enable. Handy for private trackers that only let you access it from one IP for downloading and browsing. Just use an automatic proxy switcher in your browser.

Edit: fixed that last bit that was typed off screen on my phone because the kbin mobile site was being funky.

How are you scrobbling to last.fm? Is it from substreamer or is there a plugin for Navidrome?

You can automatically replace the tracks downloaded from YouTube using Lidarr and set it to upgrade monitored albums until they’re FLAC.

But even then, it goes down to the manufacturing of that chip. RPi foundation chooses it because it’s built to a cost and they cannot afford outbid people for it. So again, manufacturing profits. Whether it’s because RPi cannot afford to pay more for those chips to get what they need, or factories are simply de-prioritizing those chips for others that make them more money.
