It's good to document weird and creepy behaviour.
If things like this don't make the news cycle, they essentially go un-called-out. Which might make it seem like normal or acceptable behaviour.
Weird behaviour doesn't live up to scrutiny

I've been meaning to play with rust, and I've always enjoyed tinkering with various MCUs... Although I'm not very strong with firmware/embedded programming.
Do you think programming an ESP32 is a good project for learning rust?
Any suggested place to start? (Tutorials, YouTube Vida etc)
In France, no one spoke English even though I spoke loudly and slowly
Haha, reminds me of a holiday ages ago in France.
Someone left their handbag behind or something, and my friend said "I'll sort it out, I know French". To be fair, he did. But when I went back to tell him where we ended up, he was speaking slowly and loudly to the poor french person.
Which reminds me of another time in France, having breakfast. I ordered "orange juice" and the waiter looked confused. So I said it again slower, and his face lit up and said "ah, jus d'orange".
Yeh, but my ZFS partition is a COW
The lack of informed consent is what makes this unethical.
Informed consent is a key aspect of clinical trials
Absolutely right, that should be 20 years. I guess I'm already preparing for my 40s
I'm late 30s.
I can't remember <13. So, at least the last 30+ years I've had 4 pairs of sunnies. Maybe 5 pairs.
I've still got 2 of those pairs.
I'm tempted to get a fancy pair that look good instead of just sunnies that look good enough (ie, more than $100). I just don't wear them enough... Maybe a couple weeks a year?
What's the point in buying good sunglasses, and why would I lose a pair?
I've had the same wallet for 15 years, I've been locked out once, and I've lost my phone about 3 times (all of which I've got my phone back).
I'm recovering from about 10 years of undiagnosed depression. Recently (like a year) it has affected my short term memory, to the point I thought I had ADHD or something else. Effecting my work, my ability to live day-to-day, my socialmlife.
I now realise, while ADHD might be a factor, undiagnosed depression has devastated who I am VS who I think I am and who I want to be.
Are there other explanations for your forgetfulness?
Is it age related? Anything else you find you are forgetting?
Well that's just weird
I feel like for a long time, CUDA was a laser looking for a problem.
It's just that the current (AI) problem might solve expensive employment issues.
It's just that C-Suite/managers are pointing that laser at the creatives instead of the jobs whose task it is to accumulate easily digestible facts and produce a set of instructions. You know, like C-Suites and middle/upper managers do.
And NVidia have pushed CUDA so hard.
AMD have ROCM, an open source cuda equivalent for amd.
But it's kinda like Linux Vs windows. NVidia CUDA is just so damn prevalent.
I guess it was first. Cuda has wider compatibility with Nvidia cards than rocm with AMD cards.
The only way AMD can win is to show a performance boost for a power reduction and cheaper hardware. So many people are entrenched in NVidia, the cost to switching to rocm/amd is a huge gamble
Yeh, seems not
Bitwarden is cheap enough, and I trust them as a company enough that I have no interest in self hosting vaultwarden.
However, all these hoops you have had to jump through are excellent learning experiences that are a benefit to apply to more of your self hosted setup.
Reverse proxies are the backbone of hosting and services these days.
Learning how to inspect docker containers, source code, config files and documentation to find where critical files are stored is extremely useful.
Learning how to set up more useful/granular backups beyond a basic VM snapshot in proxmox can be applied to any install anywhere.
The most annoying thing about a lot of these is that tutorials are "minimal viable setup" sorta things.
Like "now you have it setup, make sure you tune it for production" and it just ends.
And finding other tutorials that talk about the next step, to get things production ready, often reference out dated versions, or have different core setups so doesn't quite apply.
I understand your frustrations.
