What do you think you’re paying with when you’re using a “free” VPN?

This is the most British thing I’ve read in a while.

Oh, that would have been really useful a year ago! Thanks, I’ll keep it in my bag of tricks, it looks pretty neat.

Yeah I wouldn’t call Arch a server OS. I run Arch on my laptop, but Debian on my docker/file/self-hosting server. Best tool for the job etc. Never even been tempted by Unraid, the whole point of running Linux is that I control what goes where.

+1 for Podman. I switched from docker last year and I’m really happy I did. It’s not all sunshine and roses (can’t copy paste so much from the internet being the main issue, nobody gives examples for it), but the product itself is much better.

Oof. That’s a well-made summary of everything going on with Eurovision for the past years. Really curious to see how the current situation of a whole bunch of countries threatening to pull out will play out.

We currently have an incredibly stupid government, so that tracks. Not for long hopefully, elections in just over a month.

The Great British Sewing Bee (BBC). Even if you are not at all interested in sewing clothes. It’s so fucking wholesome and adorable that it’s a massive antidote to all the bad things out there. First season is still a bit rough, it gets better and better after that (there are 11 seasons in total now).

As an i3 owner it’s simply wild to me how BMW has squandered their massive lead in EV design. It’s still a better car than most new EV’s out there in many ways (it only weighs about 1.3 tons for example!). And every BMW EV since then has been a massive step back, although the newer generations coming next year might finally be a step in the right direction.
