Definitely agree with preferring non-gendered language. But it also doesn’t feel like right to default to the (historically) masculine version either.

Doctoress. Didn’t realize it was actually a word and feel like we should use it more because it’s awesome.

Of course they’re a guy. Otherwise it’d be Drs. Pepper. _/s

Ah, I was hoping for something native as I access it from multiple devices. Thanks though, I’ll check it out!

What theme is that? I’ve tried a few but they never look that good.

But you were already going to vote, right?

The problem is that we need a candidate that draws in people that either weren’t going to vote or would vote for someone else instead.

You could run Firefox in a container attached to the VPN for browsing. You could then connect to it from your workstation over your LAN.

I tried that once. They never watched the show and didn’t give back the USB. 🙁

The planes collect it as they fly through clouds. Imagine drinking water that’s touched the ground…

I’ve heard GMC as God’s Mechanical Crisis.

Sounds like someone has Perl Traumatic Stress Disorder. 😉

It’s based on WireGaurd with some added benefits. Free for up to 3 users. I’ve had no issues with it and even use it for corporate networks. An alternative is ZeroTier, while I haven’t used it I hear a lot of people recommend it too.

I get what they’re saying and it may be ‘technically correct’, but the issue is more nuanced than that. In my experience, some trackers have strict requirements or restricted auth tokens (e.g. can’t browse & download from different IPs). Proxying may be the solution, but I’d have to look at how it decides what traffic gets routed where.

There’s some overlap with my torrrents.py and qbitmanage, but some of its other features sound nice. It also led me to Apprise which might be the notifications solution I’ve been looking for!

Some of the arr-scripts already handle syncing the settings. I had to turn them off because it kept overwriting mine, but Recyclarr might be more configurable.

Thanks!

So White Castle doesn’t count as a burger? 🤔

The problem I’ve found is that the services will query indexers and that not all of the trackers allow you to use multiple IPs. This is where I found it easier to make all outbound requests go through the VPN so I didn’t get in trouble. It’s also why I have the Firefox container set up inside the network with it exposed over the local network as a VNC session. So I can browse the sites while maintaining a single IP.

I do have qbittorrent set up with a kill switch on the VPN interface managed by Gluetun.

The server itself is running nothing but the hypervisor. I have a few VMs running on it that makes it easy provision isolated environments. Additionally, it’s made it easy to snapshot a VM before performing maintenance in case I need to roll back. The containers provide isolation from the environment itself in the event of a service gone awry.

Coming from cloud environments where everything is a VM, I’m not sure what issues you’re referring to. The performance penalty is almost non-existent while the benefits are plenty.

The wiki is a great place to start. Also, most of the services have pretty good documentation.

The biggest tip would be to start with Docker. I had originally started running the services directly in the VM, but quickly ran into problems with state getting corrupted somewhere. After enough headaches I switched to Docker. I then had to spend a lot of time remapping all of the files to get it working again. Knowing where the state lives on your filesystem and that the service will always restart from a known point is great. It also makes upgrades or swapping components a breeze.

Everyone has to start somewhere. Just take it slow and do be afraid to make mistakes. Good luck and have fun! 😀
