If you're on android I can highly recommend Eternity. Open source and a fork of Infinity for Reddit; which is still going as a paid service post Reddit API débâcle. I loved Infinity prior to Reddit being a bitch and Eternity is just as great

having to do a firmware update on my soldering iron

You don't. It works perfectly fine OOTB. Can't speak for the Pinecil v2 with Bluetooth and the companion app but I have v1 and the software been stable and bug-free enough I've never even given a thought to updating the firmware on it

Me. $350 off and $100 worth of storage upgrades on a Pixel 9 pro was worth it for me. Phones now are expensive as fuck but getting a ~40% discount on a brand new product made it easier to accept.

Oneplus 7 Pro on release. Amazing phone, great value. Still holds up years later

Thanks for the info! Just struggling to find a suitable tempered glass protector now since the pixel 9s moved to the ultrasonic style fingerprint reader.

Pixel 9? If so, what screen protector did you go with?

Just got one and the screen protector I bought doesn't work with the new style fingerprint sensor, so looking for a known-working brand

Telegram's server side software is closed source, owned and ran by them exclusively so they really have no room to talk. WhatsApp doesn't even have OSS clients so they're even worse in that regard

It's because the original image macro that this is based on was about piracy, saying something along the lines of "I bring a certain 'just torrent it' vibe to the conversion that the riaa just doesn't like."

Their reuse of the macro is indirectly an answer or a continuation of it that can be seen as acknowledging the original message.

I think ejabberd or another other xmpp server would have been my first choice for a service like this by a long shot. If only we had some good iOS clients to go to. While I'm on android, most of the family and some of the friends use iOS, so it was kind of a non-starter from that alone.

Edit: log -> long

My long and mostly complete list:

• Audiobookshelf (GH)
  • Using for audiobooks. Ebooks, comics, and podcast support in early stages.

• EmulatorJS
  • Using for retro-emulation.

  • Using as a git repo server, package repository, and for CI/CD automation. Is critical infrastructure in my lab. Could also write an entire post on this one.
• Headscale with Headscale-UI. Tailscale clients on various VMs LXCs, etc.
  • Using to securely network with my remote servers.

• N8N (GH)
  • Using for home-automation, backing up my Reddit saved posts to a database, deal-alerts, and part of a CI/CD pipeline.
• NTFY (GH)
  • Using for infrastructure notifications mostly. Very simple and versatile alerting solution.

• Shaarli (GH)

• A handful of static websites served with NGINX
  • The old standby, its been reliable as a webserver.

These services are the result of years of development and administrating my lab and while there is still some cruft, it's mostly services that I think have real utility.

As far as hardware:

• Running pfsense on a toughbook laptop as a router-firewall.

• A SuperMicro 24 bay disk-shelf with Proxmox and ZFS for NAS duties and a couple services.

• Lenovo Tiny boxes with a Proxmox cluster for the majority of my local services.

• Dell managed switch

• A few Raspberry-pi's with Raspbian for various things.

• Linksys AP for wifi

Edit: Spelling is hard.
