MySpace Tom: “I’m gonna grab a DSLR and do a photowalk around Melbourne. You can tag along if you want.”
(This actually happened)


I trained on RS-232. What can I say?


I recently wrote a clock frontend for my NTP server and the whole page payload is less than the network MTU, so it should theoretically fit in one TCP packet.


99.999% of that is over IPv4. I leave IPv6 open to WAN for my own use and it’s not a problem.
I was joking, but it would be cool if each segment could be rendered as a UTF-8 glyphs.
I come from a country with mandatory voting. You guys are missing out.
They should have a rule where it’s really close. Rather than re-count, they should re-open. But only for anyone who didn’t vote already.
Meanwhile my gateway is fe80::17a9:3ba7:5¥4🐔:b8ä7%42


Radicale and immich replaced my nextcloud instance and I never looked back. I have both updating through apt like everything else and it’s amazing how little maintenance it requires.


OMG patching all the vulns. I actually pulled my wordpress offline overnight for that one. Still waiting on the Ubuntu patch for that IPv4 kernel CVE.
That reminds me - It’s time to do No NAT November again. This CVE gives me an excuse. Last year, the Nintendo Switch Switch and Steam were the big standouts. I think the Switch 2 will actually work with it now.
Oh, and my workplace is shifting offices, so my offsite backup is not offsite. Must take care to not burn the place down. I just put new fans in my PoE switch and now I can hear a server fan is dying too. There’s a lot of maintenance work to all this.


There’s only one social media site that’s still the same as it was a decade ago. The only problem is that it was never good.



I’ve been doing this at home. So far, none of my phones or access points use IPv4. I should be able to get the desktops off it soon. Microsoft finally got it working in Windows after decades of (stalled) development.
I noticed within seconds of posting it.
Calling a black object “black” = Does not offend.
Calling your car’s late ignition timing “retarded” = Does not offend.
Calling your dog a “bitch” = Does not offend.
Calling your rooster a “cock” = does not offend.
Calling a tied bundle of sticks for burning a “removed” = Does not offend.
Just follow your friendly dictionary and you’ll be fine.
Also: Hi mods. You’re probably here because of your word filter.
Edit: Something replaced “f-a-g-g-o-t” with “removed” automatically. I’m going to leave it because it’s hilarious that bundled sticks are forbidden.


It happens at half the speed limit.
I selfhost. My ISP has a mail relay so it doesn’t appear to come from my residential IP. The problem is that the relay is on more blacklists than I am.
