I have been working on a static site generator. I've used Hugo and Jekyll before but everytime there is something you have to learn or get used to and they never map 1 to 1 to the …

I have submitted this before, but for those maybe a bit uncomfortable with setting up a VPS to act as an exit node for Wireguard, my article covers most things: https://psyonik.tec…

It is however very patronising to tell people to "Go full vegan, abandon all possessions, and all that". It also isn't useful to reduce the conversation and assume that critique di…

TL;DR - please stop wasting tons of resources putting together new servers every year and turning this into yet another outlet for "I have more money than sense and hopefully I can…

I had wireguard on docker before for some containers, but it felt clunky and it over complicated the network stack in my head (I'm unfortunately not very skilled in networking in g…

I mentioned that as an alternative along with Headscale and Nebula. Not for me though! At least not now.

I want to make a few points to help clarify some of the choices and why I made them. This is very helpful and I appreciate all the comments as it highlights how some things are cle…

I put Zorin OS on my dads old laptop 5 years ago and I think the only time I got a question was when someone setting up his new internet was digging through network settings but ha…

I have looked at that briefly, I think I had gone with pihole in the end for the ability of having a UI to easily see any resolution issues and local dns management (which, I think…

This is such a good point. I've changed jobs a lot and one thing consistently bad (to varying degrees) is documentation and tutorials specifically. "Download X and setup" "It's not…

This is really great. I've managed to convert a few people to talk over Signal and while I am backing up my chats to my home server (I see you will be offering something like this …

I've been reading these posts for the past few months and the comments too. I've tried Junie a bit and I've used ChatGPT in the past for some bash scripts (which, for the most part…

So, as someone who has applied to a lot of jobs and has had a lot of jobs, I'm going to be a bit more critical here. I think the amount of information they gave is sufficient for a…

Not sure how these are that "new" seeing as Toto (and I'm almost assuming other Japanese brands too) have had designs like the Nautilus for some years. One of the things that stuck…

I've built a few small personal projects using Vim with NERDTree only in C#. I keep doing this every few months (small means the solution has around 4-5 projects and it performs a …

well, most of the job hops were from jobs I didn't want to do in the first place, but I needed to do. Two of those jobs were about 4 months, so that brings it down to 7 jobs in 9 y…

It is. It really is. I had posted something about jobs and looking for jobs some time before here, but the best advice I can give is that all of this "What color is your rainbow" a…

I've seen this mentioned before here in the comments, but custom fitted ear protection isn't that expensive if you consider the amount of time you can use them for and especially i…

My argument is that most peopl, the very mast majority does not have the same option to pay less tax as a percentage of their salary. Complaining about having a huge advantage over…

One aspect that shocks me is someone complaining about having a 15.3% tax rate at an income of 84k/year. If your state is incompetent, corrupt and whatever else, its your duty as a…

I think the survivorship bias is strong in this thread. This is a normal flow though when we consider where we are. Because of this, my suggestion is not to let the opinions of peo…

When I went full "no-google" on my smartphone I had to find a Google Maps alternative. Organic Maps filled the gap nicely and I've used it for personal navigation about 95% of the …

I wanted to get into a more technical role and a lot of these roles were in customer service, sales, support, fraud prevention, etc until my most recent 2 jobs, which have been in …
