You must realize you have to...

You must realize you have to pee yourself. Not only do you want to and must pee yourself but you also need to, want, and must poop yourself too!

No one will do it for you unless you've had some weird surgery with a loved one, a radio who didn't opt-in either, or have a twin sharing only one body. Otherwise, indeed, you must pee and poop yourself every single day.

The more you know!

Your email is almost full...

And who's to blame for that? If I was allowed to serve my own email server I would. Gmail just gives email out for "free" to basically electronically kidnap your data.

Hey! I want my data in my own server that I can easily access from anywhere... I can do that with Lemmy, with music, with images. But e-mail somehow nope.

It would be easy if I could download the data... Hey you can! Here's a 4 day download for 2 gigs of data! In a random ass format all twisted and crumbled so you can't do much with it!

Ok, I'm a technical guy but can I not pay you and keep using my gmail account fucking name? Nope sorry gmail owns that. It's like some asshole wants 50 cents every time you go check your mailbox because maybe he installed the mailbox. Okay, get that fucking box out of my property then! No! You can't! It's part of the house! And oh by the way everyone who needs to get in touch with you officially has to use this box.

Ok I'll get a proton account... But it's a different asshole who will one day have much more data on me and wants his 50 cents every time I need to use it. And it's not my account, it's my account @ SomeAssholes' box. Com. That's the part that irks me.

Here's a bunch of text I'm posting on someone else's website. Fuck me! I want control of my own shit but it's always frowned upon to setup your own this or that. Sure you can do email but what if power goes out?

Can't there be a happy medium.... [email protected] that I serve at my place but I can shop around for a storefront who will be there getting my mail in case the power goes out. I'm sure there is.

But regardless, I'm frustrated. How do you think my mom, a non tecky person who is in her 70's feels? Will she be able to escape Google? Nope.

Fuck Google! Fucking assholes! You fucked up email for everyone.

Costco Pistachios

It's like 20% empty shells! WTF! So I look under the bag hoping to find the holy grail of de-shelled pistachio heaven... But nothing!

This is Pistaccio Gate out in the open. Now I have to look over my shoulders.

Update: the bag after this one has not yet produced the same disparate amount of empty shells. It must have been a fluke!.... Or so I think!

Rayfish is working on my phone!

A few weeks ago Rayfish was released and only worked on PCs. But today I checked and noticed V2 was out. I updated my V1 on my PC and then installed it on my phone.

I had to restart the network on my PC to refresh the VPN networks I had already created. I setup a searcXNG on my PC just to try some sort of server. Next I created a firewall rule for that port on the rayfish network and another rule for the network on my Linux firewall. On rayfish I created a network and an invite code for my phone. On the phone I entered the invite code and was immediately connected. I could then ping from my phone to my PC and viseversa.

Finally I searched for the PCs rayfish IP and just connected to it on my browser on the phone. That worked and I was happy. But then I turned off my WiFi on my phone and clicked refresh... A few seconds later the phone re-connected and I got to my searcXNG!

My outside IP is not fixed and I rely on Cloudflare. But none of my services are actually public and are not planned to be public. So now with rayfish I get a permanent IP for free regardless of what my actual IP is. The possibilities are endless.... Big big!

This is very cool! Yeah it's AI developed, but this is AI for us. It's clear and well defined for me, AI working for us is small potatoes vs AI the evil resource sucker spy tool. So let's take advantage. Specifically this project is great and solves my privacy issues with Cloudflare.

Bug Maybe I'm putting it too simply. Any thoughts on this?

Moto buds loop are junk

My new android phone came with free watch and earbuds. The watch needs to connect to the Internet to contact the mother ship apparently otherwise no worky. So it's still in the box. But the buds I thought might be useful. However I tested their sound vs my very cheap wired earbuds with a diy IEM adapter. It's night and day. The Moto buds loop just suck. And that's probably why the spy watch and the junk buds are free.

Just parking...

A dad parking his car horribly.....some onlookers notice his kids in the back. They shout "what are you doing! Don't you realize who you've got back there?"

Yeah! He replies confidently... I've got Parkinson's! Oh, yes, those are my kids! Very observant!

Route 16 Tacoma narrows bridge closed!!!

Looks like a suicidal person might have been in crisis and either jumped, shot himself or something. There's multiple police agencies with snipers ready. The bridge is closed and there's a ton of cars diverted to the street exit before the bridge. Some of the people are going back to Kitsap or to the ferrys which basically will take an additional hours. Or you can go to Olympia and go around.

This is freaking crazy. I didn't even want to drive here and now I'm stuck overnight.

The English language is incomplete

I'll give you an example:

In court someone might say that this is "here" say. But they never call something "there" say. It's like the phrase is waiting for a definition. The witness "may" say something or "may" do something. But you know what? You never here them the witness "June" say or "February" do anything at all! The Titanic never called a "September day" and in WW2 there was no special day in October.

C'mon! There I say, I January some writing tomorrow, but if I may January that, it means a totally different thing.

Rayfish, Iroh and Yggdrasil

Today I fumbled thru the install of Rayfish and Yggdrasil. Both are awesome, but Rayfish was so much easier to install and use.

Have you tried these yet?

Here's the Yggdrasil link:

https://yggdrasil-network.github.io/

Yggdrasil has Android, Windows, Linux, Apple installers.

Rayfish only works on desktop right now, but hopefully soon they will be able to get it on Android.

Self-hosted keypass fork recommendation

I'm using Vaultgarden. Things are okay after losing my SSD yesterday morning. My strategy worked... HDD for data, SSD for the OS. I promptly found an available drive, installed Linux mint and recovered.

But that was scary. I keep a backup on another computer. The only way to actually run it and see the passwords needed to do anything was thru my phone. I was lucky that somehow the database was available offline. But if I had run out of battery I would be extremely screwed.

So I've decided the Vaultgarden is encumbered by not really having a local reliable copy. Maybe I'm wrong, but as I understand, if your server goes down and you log out, you're screwed... No more passwords until your server is up again. I find that to be extremely stupid unless I was protecting my severed testicles... No wait, that would be way worse.

So I'd there a server + local system? Like Joplin... You can write notes all day with no server at all. The server just Synchronizes it all. In the past I used syncthing and I will continue using it. One thought was to have an automated backup from Vaultgarden that was automatically synced to my various devices as a Keypass database.
