Poor Luigi…

…although on second thought maybe it’s a legit kink for him. Some people love being the cuckold. Not meaning to kinkshame Luigi either.

The younger of the two Petes was in GTA5 too.

It was definitely nice to see Danny Tamberelli get some steady work and income from that.

You don’t think about Super Crack regularly? Damn.

I mean, the mom from Adventures of Pete & Pete had a bit part as a newscaster in Frankenhooker. Actors get around.

Have you set up certificates with LetsEncrypt or something similar?

Since you’re running it on your own hardware and obviously have admin privileges, you could try out Certbot:

https://certbot.eff.org/

HTTPS requires signed certificates to be able to connect, that’s part of the trust provided in the security. Also, HTTPS is port 443 while HTTP is port 80.

The catch is you have to install the Epic app or whatever it is called.

Also they hate Linux and shitcanned the already-existing native Linux port of Rocket League when they bought it. It’s fair to say you won’t dump resources into making new Linux ports but shitcanning a quality one that already existed? They can eat shit.

I never played Rocket League again after that.

I have a related question: Isn’t hardware-based encryption faster than software-based? Or is that just an assumption on my art?

Lookin pretty slick, I dig it.

Did you 3D print the rackmounts or is there a place to get smallish ones like this?

unwatchably-bad movie

Beg to differ, it’s bad, but in the novel “so bad it rounded the bend back to good” variety. Perfect riffing fodder, a la MST3K.

My friend and I are B-movie afficionados. A Boy and His Dog is a long time favorite of ours, going back to the original Fallout days.

He recently bought and sent me this amazing knockoff poster with a bunch of weird shit that isn’t even in the movie:

(The name of the gallery, Deadly Prey, is a reference to another fine B-movie masterpiece.)

Build your own NAS. It doesn’t need to be quite as beefy as a gaming computer or personal computer, but a lot of companies that make NAS devices are making them more and more proprietary.

So PC with TrueNAS or Unraid or something similar. Don’t get sucked into an ecosystem that won’t let you use your own drives.

Rakuten, maybe? Still not super privacy respecting, but moderately moreso than Amazon perhaps?

EDIT: Check that, looks like they’re only in digital sales like Amazon in Japan, whereas they are just a cashback service in the USA.

I haven’t messed with it yet, but ddclient works with a lot of domain registrars.

ddclient even suggest these as alternatives:

That’s part of why I use Xubuntu/Kubuntu mainly and Lubuntu for real low end stuff. Straight vanilla Ubuntu is… not super appealing. Ubuntu server that’s just CLI/headless though, that’s pretty tits, imho.

I agree that the backend for snaps being proprietary sucks, but I actually think snaps themselves are pretty useful in server configurations because of the sandboxing and limiting access to system resources. I get the whole argument that it’s doing what flatpak already did yadda yadda, but like… competing standards happens. It’s part of life and always will be.

I work for Meta (Facebook).
For example, the word “protest” will now get your account and activity monitored.

Suddenly Ubuntu doesn’t seem so terrible now, does it??

Ubuntu gang represent.

Let’s Encrypt

God damn they literally just want to watch everything burn.
