So I’ve got some assassins that will just randomly attack me because of spoilers. Well, this time, some people came and tried to help kill the assassins, and one of them was a dog. This assassin I was fighting decided to run away from me and past another party member, taking 2 opportunity attacks in the process so they could...
Tinkering is all fun and games, until it’s 4 am, your vision is blurry, and thinking straight becomes a non-option, or perhaps you just get overly confident, type something and press enter before considering the consequences of the command you’re about to execute… And then all you have is a kernel panic and one thought...
I’m in the process of switching my main server over from windows to Linux
I went with Deb 12 and it all works smoothly but I don’t have enough room to back up data to change the drive formats so they’re still NTFS. I was looking at my main media HDD and thought “oh, I’ll at least delete those windows partitions and leave the main partition intact.”
I found out the hard way that NTFS partitions can’t just reclaim space like that. It shuffles all the data when you change the partition. It’s currently 23 hours into the job and it’s 33% done.
I did this to reclaim 30 MB of space on a 14 TB drive.
I’m looking for a privacy friendly device to use as TV box which can play 4K HDR ~90GB movies without problem, do you guys think the orange pi 5 could handle this type of files?
The owner kind of makes a weak attempt to seem like they’re trying, but if I weren’t there, they wouldn’t intervene at all. I’m asking because I want to make sure that I don’t over react next time.
Hold their dog’s collar and don’t let go until the owner gets the hint. Just hold their dog in place. It’s not hurting the animal but it’s also not something the owner can just ignore.
Every year or so I try one or more privacy focused keyboards. I always end up right back on SwiftKey after a couple of weeks because most of the keyboards I try have the same problem: the predictions suck....
I am trying to finally move from entirely depending on Google Photos to a proper backup strategy. I have my photos and videos downloaded from Google which are a mess right now but as long they’re with me I am fine, at least for now....
I don’t really have a tutorial suggestion but this is a great resource if you haven’t seen it yet: wiki.servarr.com
I would also recommend using dockge to help create and manage your stacks.
When you’re setting up the services, go through each section and take note of what you don’t understand. The services tie into each other so it may be beneficial to set up your stack first (docker compose YAML text file, managed by dockge) and configure stuff together.
I’m looking for a full PDF editor for use on Linux. Foxit, Qoppa… can’t find anything on TPB, AllPCWorld or 4mirrorlink. Even looked on Milkie and saw a link for Qoppa PDF, but no one is seeding it....
I need to buy one for an old TV i have. I have plex at home and i use also Stremio + real Debrid. If the device offers a controller it would be nice. Thanks!
I’m in the US but this should still apply to the UK
Is usenet and debrid safe to use without a VPN in the UK?
Yes, as long as your provider offers SSL encryption. If you’re using SSL encryption, the ISP can see what servers you’re connected to but not what data is being transferred and that should be enough protection. If there isn’t an option for SSL, you might want to use a VPN.
From what I understand it’s cheaper to use a VPN than have debrid + usenet + private indexers but I am not sure.
It is cheaper, but availability and speed are what you’re paying for if you sign up for a usenet provider.
I’ve been using both usenet and torrents for the past few years and never gotten a complaint. Usenet is my main source of everything. Only my torrent client itself is behind a VPN. All the arrs are unsecured and SABnzbd uses the SSL port for my usenet provider.
Yesterday, I suddenly noticed that the “Return Youtube Dislike” extension wasn’t working, as in, I wasn’t seeing any dislikes. Is Youtube the cause of this? or this is just some random bug?
It’s more likely an issue with the placement of the stats rather than the data behind it. YouTube probably updated the UI in a way that Return Dislikes is not compatible with.
HWID is permanent, even after Microsoft fixed the method that massgravel was using. It only affected new installs because people couldn’t run the script to activate Windows permanently.

What's a proper response to another dog attempting to mount your dog multiple times and the owner really not doing anything about it?
The owner kind of makes a weak attempt to seem like they’re trying, but if I weren’t there, they wouldn’t intervene at all. I’m asking because I want to make sure that I don’t over react next time.
