Hadn‘t heard of Rumble. At first glance, it looks like it‘s run by Elon Musk. Andrew Tate on the frontpage, far-right political channels and crypto bros. I think I‘ll pass.

A reverse proxy does not magically make an insecure app secure.

Do you want pixel graphics, or do you want gameplay like Vampire Survivors? Because the suggestions here are all over the place genre-wise.

I read somewhere that federation is currently deactivated on the Kbin side but that it should be only temporary. They seem to have some technical problems.

There‘s this great video essay that basically agrees with you. Rockstar want to create these cinematic narrative experiences but that does not mash well with their concept of an open world.

I‘m with you. I don‘t get why so many people praise the story and the gameplay.

The mission design is very disappointing. You have this beautiful open world with so many systems that you can interact with. It can be fun to just start some shit and watch the chaos unfold. But the second you start a mission, everything is scripted and like on rails. You have no real freedom whatsoever in how you want approach a mission. The missions are also not challenging in the least (apart from some jank here and there). It‘s mostly just one turkey shoot after another.

Story spoilersThe story is not all that great. It‘s just not believable that anyone sane would stick so long with a gang leader who does not make a single good decision and clearly goes more and more off the deep end. It is also too long and overstays its welcome by tens of hours. Especially the whole Guarma chapter is hot garbage and would not have been missed at all if it weren‘t there.

I made it through to the end. I had to see for myself where they are going with the story. But I was kind of glad when it was over.

I wish another studio could license the world that Rockstar have created and make a game that is actually good. But that is never going to happen.

When I looked around for CalDAV solutions the last time Nextcloud was the only one that allowed me to share calendars with my SO. Nextcloud isn‘t very taxing on my system because it doesn‘t do anything most of the time.

Do you know about problems reaching the big player mailservers?

Honestly, I don‘t know. I have never had a confirmed case of an email being rejected or classified as spam. There were some cases of not getting an answer to an email. But that could also be explained by shitty customer service.

It is tricky to setup everything correctly if you are trying to do it all on your own but SNM holds your hand for setting up DKIM, SPF and DMARC. That‘s where some people may have problems. Also, forget about setting up a mail server at home with any IP address you get from your internet provider.

  • Plex and Jellyfin for movies and TV shows. I want to switch from Plex to Jellyfin but it is not quite there yet. It‘s very little effort to keep Jellyfin running in parallel though. I am keeping it around to regularly compare the two and re-evaluate.
  • Tube Archivist for archiving and watching YouTube videos.
  • Miniflux for reading feeds.
  • Nextcloud, mainly for calendars and contacts; occasionally for sharing files with others.
  • Syncthing for syncing files.
  • Financier for budgeting.
  • Paperless-ngx for managing documents.
  • Qbittorrent for downloading and sharing Linux ISOs.
  • Prowlarr for searching Linux ISOs.
  • Copyparty for sharing Linux ISOs with friends.
  • Shaarli for saving bookmarks.
  • Jekyll for statically generating my personal blog.
  • Caddy as HTTP server / reverse proxy for all of the above. Automatically provisions certificates from Let‘s Encrypt.
  • PostgreSQL as database for Nextcloud and Miniflux.
  • Simple Nixos Mailserver for emails with Postfix, Dovecot and rspamd.
  • Dehydrated for getting certificates from Let‘s Encrypt for the mail server.
  • Btrbk and Restic for backups.

Most of this stuff runs on my server at home (ASRock J4105-ITX, 8 GB RAM , 250 GB SSD, 18 TB HDD). The mail server and the blog run on a cheap VPS (1 vCPU, 2 GB RAM, 20 GB SSD). Both servers run NixOS.
