Found it! ๐Ÿ˜„

I don't have any recommendations, but have seen a community for these types of games that may be relevant:

Big "how dare I be held accountable for my actions" energy.

I think for issues like this it may be good to develop a practice of using the spoiler tag with a warning attached. This way it's up to the reader to decide if they want to read it and is flexible enough to cover all of the various use cases.

Or if it's anything like some of the places I've lived, it's straight but the walls aren't...

Pixels of the photos so everyone can have a piece of history! /s

I have been working on a Wayland Tiling WM and have thought about expanding more into the DE space. While it's finally starting to get to a good spot, it's pretty daunting to consider all of the other items that need to be developed for a fully-featured DE. Especially when it's something I'm doing as a side project after my day job. I think for anything bigger it'd require financial backing, for which open source projects are still struggling to find a good solution.

IIRC, it was Neal Stephenson's Anathem that had a similar line of thought. It was something to the effect of your consciousness warping to a parallel reality at the moment of death, provided there was a reality where you were still alive.

And index it against inflation. ๐Ÿ˜‰

What might be interesting would be to have it displayed, but grouped by instance. That way we could see some data and potentially uncover troll instances or attempts to brigade the conversation without opening ourselves up to personal attacks.

Also donate! It's unfortunate that money is a requirement for campaigning, but it is and helps win races.

 

But of course the DNC will choose a moderate instead.

 

What are some must read books in the Warhammer 40k universe?

I have zero familiarity with the lore, but have always heard that it has some good stories. I'm currently wrapping up my run through all of the Thrawn novels and starting to look for another series to dive into.

So, what's the best entry point, must reads, or fan favorites?

Context

Having started out in the world of Napster & Limewire, I've always relied on public sources. It wasn't until in the early '10s that I lucked into a Gazelle-based tracker that was started by some fellow community members. Unfortunately, I wasn't paying enough attention when they closed shop and didn't know how to move elsewhere. Combined with some life circumstances I gave up the pursuit for the time being.

It wasn't until recently that a friend was kind enough to help me get back and introduced me to current state of automation. Over the course of a few months, I've since built up the attached systems. I've been having an absolute blast learning and am very impressed with all of the contributions!

After all of the updates due to BF deals, I put together the attached diagram as it was starting to get too complex to keep all of the interactions in my head. ๐Ÿ˜…

Setup

  • All of the services run in Docker containers.
  • Each container is a separate Compose file managed by Systemd.
  • The system itself is in a VM running on my home server (both Arch, btw).
  • Tailscale is used for remote access to the local network.
  • ProtonVPN is managed by Gluetun and uses a separate network for isolating services.

Questions

  • What am I missing or can be improved?
  • Is there a better way to document?
  • What do you do differently that might be beneficial?

Thoughts

  • I had Calibre set up at one point, but I really don't like how it tracks files by renaming them. I have been considering trying to automate with the CLI instead, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
  • I've been toying with the idea of creating a file-arr for analyzing disk usage, performing common operations, and exposing a web-based upload/download client so I don't have to mount the volume everywhere.
  • Similarly, I'm interested in a way to aggregate logs/notifications/metrics. I'm aware of Notifiarr, but would prefer a self-hosted version.
  • I just set up Last FM scrobbling so I don't have any data yet. I'm hoping to use that for discovery and if possible, playlist syncing or auto-generation.

Notes

  • Diagram was made using D2lang.
  • Some of the connections have been simplified to improve readability / routing.
  • Some services have been redacted out of an abundance of caution.
  • I know VPN with Usenet isn't necessary, but it's easier to keep it consistent.

Also, thanks for the recommendations to check out deemix/Deezer. That worked really well! ๐Ÿ˜€

Struggling to find a lot of music with Lidarr (New/Recent/Modern). Have a few general public/private trackers set up but still not getting many hits. From what I gather Usenet isn't much better. And I'm not really confident in transcoding, bit rates, etc... to attempt an interview.

Basically what are my options? Is there something I'm missing or is music just getting harder to find?

 
  • Dactyl Manuform 5x6 full with trackball.
  • Resin case, Amoeba King PCBs, and hot swaps.
  • Used Kailh Box Navy switches.
  • Adafruit KB2040 and PMW3389 for the controllers.
  • TRRS with full duplex between the halves.

Took my sweet time wiring up to not burn myself out, but I think it was worth the wait! My soldering skills certainly improved by the end of it. ๐Ÿ˜…

Also, big shout-out to Wylderbuilds!
