Refusing to use Signal: "I have too many messaging apps"
  • It was not foolish. It was a security decision and the right one. The goal of signal isn't to have billions of users, the goal is to become a privacy and security centered app. If a feature prevents that it should be immediately removed.

  • rpms were a pain for me when i transitioned as well but I've learned to love them

  • Why is snaps hated
  • because the snap folder in your home directory by default starts with a lowercase letter while all the other folders start with uppercase (hidden folders don't count)

    all other reasons are secondary

  • Consumers are now ‘hunkering down’ rather than ‘trading down’ on groceries, Conagra says
  • Connolly provided some possible reasons for the new behavior.

    First, he said, consumers may be trying to save money because this summer will likely be “more travel intensive” than last year, something he believes will be a temporary shift.

    Other reasons he gave include deflationary trends in a few single-ingredient items and lower pension incomes.

    Regarding what the company can do to stimulate demand, Connolly said he is not a fan of deep-discount promotions, because those tend to train the shopper to look for deals.

    “So we don’t like those kinds of promotions,” he said. “But in the current environment with the consumer that is cutting back and making other choices, we probably are more likely to see some players resort to harder deals to stimulate units.”

  • [HELP] Openvpn with multiple .conf files

    Since /etc/openvpn gets scanned on boot for .conf files to use openvpn to connect to, can I just rename all of my .ovpn files as .conf and it'll pick a random one each time (or at least go in alphabetical order until it finds one that works)?

    [PROJECT] Reached a huge milestone in my selfhosted journey, all thanks to people in the community and duckduckgo searches

    Just wanted to say thank you to everyone in the community for being awesome, this is not a help request just me being super happy that I have finally overcome one of the biggest challenges I set for myself with self-hosting, making a media server that I can add media to at any time from anywhere in the world so that my family and I, located on different continents, can immediately enjoy it!

    My Raspberry Pi started out as just a simple Nextcloud box that I could access outside the home to escape from the Dropboxes and Google Drives of the world.

    I ended up finding out everything that I can do with it and became more and more enthralled and tried to challenge myself. I learned so much about NFS, config files, iptables, and Linux/networking in general that I feel the knowledge itself was worth the struggle.

    While I have more than a few programs on there, the most challenging thing has been this (which I just now put the final touches on accomplishing):

    1. Have a Jellyfin server on the Pi which can be accessed from anywhere in the world.

    2. Be able to add media to Jellyfin via torrent.

    3. Used a separate (very old, Windows XP era) 32-bit computer only to be a torrent box (running latest Debian). I connect to my VPN provider via openvpn on the command line with transmission-daemon running behind that. However, I want to be able to add a torrent from anywhere in the world at any time and I cannot do that if transmission-daemon is hiding behind a VPN. Therefore I need to be able to create an ssh tunnel, but I can't do that if the entire server is behind a VPN! Therefore I had to learn to mess with iptables and ip rules, but I was able to make SSH use the default network while everything else uses the VPN, and so now I can ssh tunnel from outside the home network and open transmission in a browser that way.

    4. Since I am using two separate machines (the torrent box for downloading torrents and the Raspberry Pi for hosting the media server), I created an NFS share on the Raspberry Pi where the media would sit and mounted it on the torrent box, having all finished media files be placed in there.

    5. I set up Jellyfin to refresh every 6 hours to update the media that I now have.

    If anybody here is trying to do this and is having issues, I'm happy to answer any questions!
