(kinda, hard to translate, the original is “s-a bășit cu stropi”)

I’ve been consuming English media for many years. My computer and phone have used English since the 90s. I got used to it, so today, even if I could switch my phone to my native language, I don’t, it sounds strange.

These days I consume most media in English (US, UK, AU) - movies, tv shows, YouTube, websites, books (paper, audiobooks). I have no trouble understanding content, but I do keep subtitles on out of habit, and that helps when there’s a stronger accent.

I’ve been using English at work exclusively for more than 10 years, and where I live now, I hang out with an international crowd. We speak English to each other, even though it’s not anyone’s first language most of the time.

I take notes and journal in English, even privately. I sometimes even think in English.

I still have an accent and I’m missing some vocabulary and the occasional grammatical rule, but I consider myself fluent in English.

No, not yet. He’s still in school, he did decide on an education/career path (no longer robotics, turns out math, physics, and programming are hard), so he’ll be around for a few more years, at least until he’s done with his FOS (we’re in Germany).

We decided that as long as the kids are in school, they can stay with us. And with rent prices these days…

Cradle of Filth! I used to have some shorts with their logo :))

My first child was born that year. 🥲

I had to look it up myself: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-hole

reminds me of this scene from after life.

I started (and partially gave up) music, drawing, woodworking. I stuck to computers, and I am working as a devops engineer. I also read, as much as I can. I guess what I’m trying to say is try things out. You’re young. You’ll find your passion eventually :)

I used pihole for years, but the recent updates made me look for alternatives. There was a major (v6?) update fuckup, but also some random freezes and block lists going missing…

Looking for alternatives, I tried out Technitium. Extremely easy to set up, rock solid, running steady for about 6 months (with frequent updates), and they recently introduced built in high-availability.

d&d :)

Ask yourself the same question, but replace trans with cis. Everyone is different,

I read this in Sazed’s accent, from Mistborn. He used to finish sentences with “I think” :)

I have a similar setup, with a public domain hosted by cloudflare. Internally, I use caddy with the DNS feature pointing to the cloudflare using their API and letsencrypt certs.

Something like this: https://webenclave.com/2024/11/07/setting-up-a-secure-local-network-with-caddy-cloudflare-dns-and-lets-encrypt/

I can also share more details, maybe my compose files and caddy setup if you need them.

That’s true. I still do, for my entire *arr stack, but you don’t need to, except for the torrent client.

Ah, I did not know that.

i’m not saying it is ai generated, but those apostrophes from “can’t” and “don’t”… i don’t have those on my keyboard :)

I do, and my therapist thinks it comes from toxic shame, not autism related…

Anyway, even if my brain tells me that those people over there surely are laughing at me, I’m trying to convince myself of the opposite. They most probably don’t give a shit about me :)

I’m using Gluetun to connect to my VPN, and only *arr services and qbit use it. Here’s a good example: https://github.com/automation-avenue/arr-gluetun/blob/main/docker-compose.yml

just picked up fallout 4 goty

works beautifully (for me, ~40 fps) with ultra settings @1440p on my thinkpad with igpu :)
