Yea, iirc its a spinoff of that from ages ago.

Yuup. Torrents are for the rare thing I care about that isnt on either nzbgeek or matrix.

My PC was HAL_9000 for over a decade. It got tedious to type, so it’s now just “box.”

I skimmed that article but didnt get the joke until I came back. BRB, making a new gmail account.

Very German of you.

My first computer job was at a college that used names from ancient history and mythology. So I mostly still do that. Medea is my plex server. Zeus and Hera are the hosts for docker and VMs. Heimdall is the router.

The only break in the pattern is my storage, which is currently NASC and NASD…

Oh and my personal machine used to be HAL_9000 (complete with wallpaper and theme sounds) but now I just name it “box.”

I do not expose Nextcloud to the internet. I use dnsmasq to give LAN clients the private IP. If I need to access NC from elsewhere, there’s VPN for that.

I believe the word you’re looking for is “kludgey.”

Killing off PHP is big

This is what I do with my Asus AX mesh setup, running a Merlin fork (gnuton).

My background is in enterprise software, so that is obviously different than a desktop tool for individual use, but it informs my opinions.

In general it depends on the use (is it “production” critical, etc) as well as the update and distribution mechanisms.

I have several (mostly for windows) FOSS projects i have stopped using or just rarely update because they require too many steps to update, and/or do so too often.Or they require a reboot. Some of them prompt for an update every time I start them. Feh.

That said, if there isn’t much friction like testing cycles or manual steps to update, I want faster updates.

Most of my self-hosted stuff falls into the category of getting updates via package managers or docker. Those are often seemless and do not require manual steps.

I use Joplin on top of Nextcloud.
