How else would Styropyro get enough batteries for his 1000-kiloamp tungsten vapor atomizer? The “environmentally conscious” choice might prove to be a greater disruption to the ecology.

No leaving before you git push, you’d better start working on those merge conflicts!

The treekie in me wants BookData.

(edit) This made me remember The Measure Of A Man and now I’m fucking depressed. They had such high hopes for the future.

Almost all of those issues are solved by quoting the string values.

Fuck, I’m an idiot. I really shouldn’t be giving advice when I’m sleep-deprived like this. I completely forgot that when I used RDP, I did it through an SSH tunnel.

Three important factors:

• Gigabit ethernet
• SATA-attached storage
• My family not knowing what the fuck USB 3.0 is, and why blue USB is better than black USB.

It’s the beauty of natural selection: shitty drivers will die in that environment until only careful drivers remain.

Mine is using a network share to transfer files faster than any USB device we have at home.

Not Just Bikes has permanently altered my brain because the only thing I can think of is how much I’d change in this setup. Remove the median, decrease the lane width by one quarter (seeing it in meters, those are fucking huge), use the space to extend the sidewalks and add civil infrastructure (trash bins, benches, illumination), make the bike lanes grade-separated, and add traffic calming features (it’s a bridge, not a race track).

“Dieselpunk transhumanism” is a criminally unexploited concept.

To delegate the responsibility of securing login data to a company better equipped to deal with it (in theory at least). You can also use an external OIDC provider.

Tailscale. Create an account, put the client on the LAN device, put the client on the remote device, log in on both, you’re done. It bypasses NAT, CGNAT, and the firewall through some UDP black magic fuckery. As long as the router allows outgoing connections, it will work.

If the factory resets cause the router to lose connection to the ISP, though, then nothing will work.

Tailscale Funnel will let you expose a host to everyone on the internet. You’ll need the Tailscale client running on either the Jellyfin host or a reverse proxy pointing to it. Tailscale itself will act as a reverse proxy with TLS encryption, plus a DNS server.

Exposing a service to the internet will always present some risk. You should definitely run your LXCs as unprivileged, unless needed otherwise, to mitigate the potential damage if an attacker escapes the container, or put the services in full virtual machines.

external access

Do you want the Jellyfin server to be accessible from only within your tailnet, or anywhere from the internet?

Why do I need it to be integrated into fucking Notepad?

The rate at which every security practice is being torn down for the sake of clankers is giving me suicidal tendencies. Surely you will not regret giving the token-based randomness machine root access!

Simply dual-booting is viable. My Win10 + Arch worked well for over a year. If you’re worried about Windows Update nuking the EFI partition, you can clone a backup of just that partition (dd or a dedicated tool like Clonezilla) that you can then restore from a live environment if needed. Another option, if the disk becomes unbootable, is to boot into a live environment from a USB stick and simply reinstall GRUB into the EFI partition.

(edit) It’s also a good idea to reduce the frequency of forced updates. You can do that using WinUtil.

Windows Update has a habit of eating the EFI partition. That’s how I finally switched to full-time Linux. LTSC doesn’t update as frequently as Win10 Pro, and probably doesn’t touch the EFI partition as much, so there’s a smaller chance for that to happen.

Dual-booting can work for years without issue. My method just ensures that Windows Update has absolutely zero chance to fuck with the ESP.

Why would I? They haven’t broken any rules, and we haven’t had a good troll post since Madthumbs left.

By looking.
