I prefer subdomains, personally. A lot of services expect to run on the root of the web server, so although you can sometimes configure them to use a path, it's kind of a pain.

Also, migrating services from one server to another will be a lot easier with subdomains since all you have to do is change the A and AAAA records. I use ZeroTier for a lot of my services, and that's really nice since, even if I move a container to another machine, the container's ZeroTier IP address will stay the same, so I don't even need to update DNS. With paths, migration would involve a lot more work.

I think it depends on the subreddit, honestly. For example, subreddits for mental health support (think r/depression, r/antidepressants, r/anxiety, etc.) should probably stay open since many would agree that supporting mental health is more important than protesting Reddit's API changes.

Then there are subs like r/sysadmin. On the one hand, it'd make sense for them to shutdown since they're a pretty tech-savvy group. On the other hand, since this sub is one of the first places sysadmins get information regarding security advisories, for example, it's arguably also important enough to stay open.

Meme subs should probably go dark, though.

Thanks dude. Always a helpful reminder.

I'm using a Ramnode VPS since I had some unused credit I wanted to use up. 2 vcpu, 1 GB ram, and 35 GB ssd.

Seems to be working well enough so far, but right now it's just me. If I open up to more users, I might need to upgrade, but we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

Edit: I may have spoke too soon; had to reboot the server due to low memory. Hopefully a swap file will alleviate that a bit, but I might have to upgrade the RAM on this server. We'll see.

The live action Super Mario Bros movie.

I know it doesn't meet the "post 2000's" rule, but I saw it for the first time a couple years ago, so I think it still counts. I don't think it was a very good Mario movie since it took A LOT of creative liberties with the source material (tbf, there wasn't a lot to work with in 1993), but as its own thing, I enjoyed it for what it was. Definitely expected a lot worse when going into it.

What is the Krabby Patty secret formula?

Can confirm. That dog is, in fact, very smol.

Check to make sure it's not a scam (those scammers are getting crafty these days)

This is so sad. Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars?

Xonotic is a fun quake-like shooter. Highly recommend.

Xserver's code base would be a great hiding place, for sure.

Can't relate

Oh, good. You had me worried there for a second.

Speech recognition. Being able to tell your computer what to do, and it actually does it, just feels like something straight out of SciFi. It is a shame that Alexa, Google Assistant, etc. ended up being such privacy nightmares, but hopefully projects like Rhasspy can help change that.

Oh, thanks for explaining. That ending was pretty confusing, but I think I understand it now.

As much as I enjoy self hosting my own services, email just seems like more trouble than it's worth. I let Protonmail take care of that for me.

What is your stance on legalizing dank memes?

Everyone was watching the SpongeBob SquarePants Movie one day, they googled Motörhead after hearing them perform You Better Swim in the bar scene, and the rest is history.
