  • Self-hosted machine. It was basically my old computer I bought back in '09. It’s a i5-750 on a Asus P5P77. It started with the 4 GB RAM I hadn’t sold until I upgrade to 8. I used a borrowed Nvidia GT730 and a 1 TB HDD at first until I upgrade my main PC GPU and bought a new HDD for the server so now it runs in a 4 TB HDD and my old GTX 1060 3 Gb. It’s a beast for my needs.

    • Jellyfin is the main reason I started my server. Initially it was so my mother could easily watch shows I would never illegally download. Until a realized it would be great for me too and friends. To not watch them…I mean, because that would be ilegal!

    • Qbittorrent…shit…oh well :)

    • Nginx, when I realized I could host my own development server and personal website

    • Komga, when I realized I could have the same benefits of Jellyfin with books and comics.

    • Tailscale, allows me to, among other things, use it as an online or LAN hard drive for me and people I like.

    • Samba, see above. It also works to keep a nice share folder between my main PC and my laptop

    The more time passes the more I realize self-hosting is the best idea ever. I get new ideias every day.







  • No chance. An open military attack would be the end of Israel. Spain is a EU and NATO member. Article 5 would be called and accepted by most NATO members. If not the alliance would be over immediately.

    Lets assume the US noped out (which they would never do if Israel dared to attack Spain). That would be the end of NATO but Israel would have to deal with the EU. Even Spain by itself could cause some serious damage to Israel. And they wouldn’t be by themselves.

    I’m Portuguese, and my country is the historical rival of Spain. An attack on Spain would be like a direct attack on us and most EU members feel the same.

    This, of course, is hypothetical. There’s no way Netanyahu would pull such a dumb and unthinkable move.




  • I work in a school. I laugh and joke a lot with the teens. Sometimes I forget I’m not one of them and I’m 40. I’m just as immature as them, just more experienced. A lot of my coworkers forget what it was like to be a kid and how boring most of us are. School sucks, remember?







  • It’s surreal how such a comment is downvoted. In democracy you are supposed to vote with your conscience. If you are bullied to vote for someone under threat of loosing democracy…you already lost it.

    If Democrats want to win then they must deserve that vote. What they want is a blank check to do what they please and the voter has to take it or else Trump. Fuck that. It’s their responsibility, not the voters! You play this game and they’ll know they can do what they want as long as there’s a boogeyman. You’ll be a democracy just in name. On the long term you’ll be just as fucked as with Trump.

    It’s not the voters who are running against Trump. If Biden wants to win, then he should win by earning the most votes. Period. Democracy isn’t easy.
