At least anecdotally I find them to be the third most common thing to fail after storage drives and fans. Though yeah still super rare.

Want a simple text editor with no AI nonsense on windows? Oddly Microsoft has you covered: https://github.com/microsoft/edit

I must say I’ve accepted becoming uncool with all the grace and poise of a particularly violent train accident.

Fully agree.

For once I’m hoping In Betteridge is wrong on this one.

I am the only true warhammer fan. The rest of them are posers and/or tourists.

Didn’t realise deaths were so frequent on ferries.

Oh I’m fully aware I’m just to lazy to set up jellyfin and navidrome quite yet.

I’d strongly recommend reverse proxy, some sort of security like crowd sec or fail2ban and sperate auth (authelia, aithentik) in front of anything you’re opening to the internet. Just opening services directly up to the internet is choice I’d politely describe as brave.

Man that sucks. Saw him play maybe 12 years ago or so and he was fantastic. Excellent musician.

Oh its illegal to do that in the UK too. All the retailers just break the law.

Sure but this won’t work if you’re accessing services outside your network like OP is doing. You’re going to need publicly available DNS records somewhere to do that.

I don’t believe pihole functions as an authorative DNS server though. Something like technetium does and they could be used as the nameservers for a domain while still offering all the same adblocking functionality that pihole does.

Though pihole could work of you were relying on a VPN to access your stuff remotely.

You can set up automatic renewals for domains.

What on earth is a velomobile?

Guess they dont want folks with custom domains either then.
