Your guess is as good as mine. I can imagine low-effort workflows. They would still require set up / config. The functional return, as I understand it, is nil.

They are laboring under the delusion modified spelling stymies the use of their writing as LLM training data.

It doesn’t. But it does garner attention (which is, I suspect, the real reason for their behavior).

The tour is quite comprehensive.

I’m the other one!

Not that I have any say in the matter but I think this kind of question is fine for the selfhost community. It’s still in the spirit of “how to do xyz with my own hardware / less dependence on a third party”.

The other suggestions have covered my own. I did want to add that good resources for finding these kinds of tools are often called Awesome lists. Awesome self-hosted. Awesome CLI. Awesome social media. You get it. I’m not sure where the trend started but I stumbled on them after getting fed up with the likes of Slashdot and AlternativeTo.

They’re usually a community-maintained git repo on one of the major platforms. This list has quite a few hits for “YouTube”, for instance: https://github.com/krzemienski/awesome-video

BTRFS + Snapper makes automating system snapshots and updates so care-free that it almost feels wrong. 😅

With proper partitioning and backup strategies deployed during setup an admin could inexorably hose the OS and it wouldn’t be a big deal. I can count on one hand the amount of times it’s made sense to nuke a Linux machine. None of those incidents required I redeploy from scratch. Just re-install, log in, and all the data is exactly where it ought to be.

I’ve reguarly had to re-install Windows machines from scratch as if they were some eldritch beast whose rage was only calmed after the ritual sacrifice was complete.

I’m a bit late to the party. I was a network admin in another life and believe I can help out. I’ve skimmed existing conversations but not fully poured over them.

That said: I’d print the routing tables for the switches and firewall and review them. Considering firewall rules is sensible but it seems you’ve already done quite a bit of investigation there. It sounds like there is some vlan configuration missing. Like one of the switches doesn’t have the vlan interface defined or named in its vlan database.

Review the routing tables and confirm who owns each vlan and what those networks are aware of. Also toggle your logging options on so you can review them and test with more info than pass/fail.

It very well may be a OPNsense firewall knowledge thing but I’m not convinced. If you’re still working on this tomorrow I’d be happy to help root-cause the problem and fill in the gaps between RTFM and old YouTube videos. :)

Am I correct in understand your central question is “what’s the practical impact”?

If so then I think it’s a good theme for conversation. I’ve seen suggestions that “death of the artist” applies here. I’ve also seen “software is apolitical” and similar. While these are valid discussions in their own right: they miss the point.

Using anything created by people whose public speech is actively and consistently attempting to rhetorically enhance their political views implies acceptance or endorsement of those views. It’s a kind of identity politics not dissimilar in concept from brand identity.

What is and is not culturally acceptable is (in part) determined by norms established via association with such identities and the credibility-enhancing displays affirming those associations.

Using Omarchy suggests DHH’s political views are acceptable. It doesn’t matter how much creedance one gives this idea or how much impact it may have. The “Nazi dinner party” principal applies regardless.

It makes sense after accepting spacetime is mutable. Reference frames are merely referential localization.

I asked to receive a drawing of me writing the prompt asking for that drawing. Someone delivered a picture of an abject moron drooling while typing away at a keyboard on a desktop computer. Hah! Jokes on THEM! I was on my CELLPHONE while on the TOILET.

Otherwise accurate. 11/10

If I wanted to introduce someone to the genre then Empires of the Undergrowth would be my first recommendation.

The gameplay, narrative, and progression mechanics are top-notch. The developers understand what makes RTS mechanics compelling and have designed systems that are more intuitive and accessible for everyone.

For instance (no spoilers) unit groups are built-in to base management. No hotkeys or group micro management required. It happens automatically as a functional result of more obvious concerns.

My only critique of the game, if I were forced to offer one, is that the UI can seem a bit clunky at first. That aside though the team’s expertise and care shine through in ways which prove the user experience was well considered throughout development.

It’s fun, too!

Oh, buddy. Ooooof.

I was ignorant but curious.

She’s got a Doctorate of Philosophy in English Literature from Oxford, is a feminist author, and conspiracy theorist. At a glance I can understand why she’s developed a reputation of a certain color.
