Of course they're a guy. Otherwise it'd be Drs. Pepper. ~/s~

After seeing him on The Daily Show last night, Pete Buttigieg seems like a good pick. He has the added bonus of not requiring a special election or interim replacement.

But of course the DNC will choose a moderate instead.

Incoming 'health concern'? πŸ€”

A bland and unprincipled candidate whose positions shift based on polling numbers. Not to mention her prosecutorial background and close proximity to SF corruption scandals makes her an easy target.

This is how Bernie can still win! /s

In the off chance they do replace him, they're going to force the worst possible candidate on us (Kamala?). Because what else are you going to do, let the bad guy win?

I tried that once. They never watched the show and didn't give back the USB. πŸ™

Plants and animals don't file tickets.

But do they pet them?

Seriously. Her and Hollering Elk were some mainstays on the old place.

What are some must read books in the Warhammer 40k universe?

I have zero familiarity with the lore, but have always heard that it has some good stories. I'm currently wrapping up my run through all of the Thrawn novels and starting to look for another series to dive into.

So, what's the best entry point, must reads, or fan favorites?

Somehow god is all-knowing, but forgot to consider the loopholes.

Context

Having started out in the world of Napster & Limewire, I've always relied on public sources. It wasn't until in the early '10s that I lucked into a Gazelle-based tracker that was started by some fellow community members. Unfortunately, I wasn't paying enough attention when they closed shop and didn't know how to move elsewhere. Combined with some life circumstances I gave up the pursuit for the time being.

It wasn't until recently that a friend was kind enough to help me get back and introduced me to current state of automation. Over the course of a few months, I've since built up the attached systems. I've been having an absolute blast learning and am very impressed with all of the contributions!

After all of the updates due to BF deals, I put together the attached diagram as it was starting to get too complex to keep all of the interactions in my head. πŸ˜…

Setup

  • All of the services run in Docker containers.
  • Each container is a separate Compose file managed by Systemd.
  • The system itself is in a VM running on my home server (both Arch, btw).
  • Tailscale is used for remote access to the local network.
  • ProtonVPN is managed by Gluetun and uses a separate network for isolating services.

Questions

  • What am I missing or can be improved?
  • Is there a better way to document?
  • What do you do differently that might be beneficial?

Thoughts

  • I had Calibre set up at one point, but I really don't like how it tracks files by renaming them. I have been considering trying to automate with the CLI instead, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
  • I've been toying with the idea of creating a file-arr for analyzing disk usage, performing common operations, and exposing a web-based upload/download client so I don't have to mount the volume everywhere.
  • Similarly, I'm interested in a way to aggregate logs/notifications/metrics. I'm aware of Notifiarr, but would prefer a self-hosted version.
  • I just set up Last FM scrobbling so I don't have any data yet. I'm hoping to use that for discovery and if possible, playlist syncing or auto-generation.

Notes

  • Diagram was made using D2lang.
  • Some of the connections have been simplified to improve readability / routing.
  • Some services have been redacted out of an abundance of caution.
  • I know VPN with Usenet isn't necessary, but it's easier to keep it consistent.

Also, thanks for the recommendations to check out deemix/Deezer. That worked really well! πŸ˜€

Struggling to find a lot of music with Lidarr (New/Recent/Modern). Have a few general public/private trackers set up but still not getting many hits. From what I gather Usenet isn't much better. And I'm not really confident in transcoding, bit rates, etc... to attempt an interview.

Basically what are my options? Is there something I'm missing or is music just getting harder to find?

  • Dactyl Manuform 5x6 full with trackball.
  • Resin case, Amoeba King PCBs, and hot swaps.
  • Used Kailh Box Navy switches.
  • Adafruit KB2040 and PMW3389 for the controllers.
  • TRRS with full duplex between the halves.

Took my sweet time wiring up to not burn myself out, but I think it was worth the wait! My soldering skills certainly improved by the end of it. πŸ˜…

Also, big shout-out to Wylderbuilds!
