I think Tammy Duckworth would’ve been a good choice.

It feels like he’s inevitable at this point. 🙁

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. 🙁

Yeah, lack of XWayland support has been an issue for me. Versioning the config API is something I’ve been considering, or at least ensuring backwards compatibility.

I’d be interested in other ideas or pain points you’ve experienced. Not to suggest I’ll ever have something production-grade, but my hope is to get to a point that I have a working daily driver and potentially share it with others.

There’s also Strata, Niri, and to some extent Cosmic. My problem has been that they tend to be very opinionated and limited in the customization of the layouts. Having used XMonad for a long time, I may be a bit spoiled in that regard…

I do think there’s a middle ground for configuration without requiring programming skills, which can be off-putting for many users. After all, most layouts are just a combination of rows and columns. 😛

I actually started working on one a few weeks ago. It’s amazing how easy it was to get the basics working. Still a long way to go, but it’s a fun project in the meantime and hopefully can result in something that supports my desired flow.

I think a more apt description would be proxy cards. It’s relatively new, but it lets you create cards that are linked to your primary without ever issuing a plastic card. This way if fraud happens you only need to replace it for the services it was used on. Or if you happen to lose your physical card, you can have it replaced without affecting the others.

I emailed my bank about this a few years ago. Never heard back but to my surprise they actually updated the password restrictions! I should send another email asking for MFA and virtual cards…

Sounds like someone has Perl Traumatic Stress Disorder. 😉

It’s based on WireGaurd with some added benefits. Free for up to 3 users. I’ve had no issues with it and even use it for corporate networks. An alternative is ZeroTier, while I haven’t used it I hear a lot of people recommend it too.

Sorry about that, there were some upload restrictions. See the HQ link for the full resolution.

I get what they’re saying and it may be ‘technically correct’, but the issue is more nuanced than that. In my experience, some trackers have strict requirements or restricted auth tokens (e.g. can’t browse & download from different IPs). Proxying may be the solution, but I’d have to look at how it decides what traffic gets routed where.

Honestly, I can’t really tell the difference between Jellyseer and Reiverr. It may be that I don’t use them enough, but it really seems like they provide the same information in slightly different ways.

There’s some overlap with my torrrents.py and qbitmanage, but some of its other features sound nice. It also led me to Apprise which might be the notifications solution I’ve been looking for!

Some of the arr-scripts already handle syncing the settings. I had to turn them off because it kept overwriting mine, but Recyclarr might be more configurable.

Thanks!

The problem I’ve found is that the services will query indexers and that not all of the trackers allow you to use multiple IPs. This is where I found it easier to make all outbound requests go through the VPN so I didn’t get in trouble. It’s also why I have the Firefox container set up inside the network with it exposed over the local network as a VNC session. So I can browse the sites while maintaining a single IP.

I do have qbittorrent set up with a kill switch on the VPN interface managed by Gluetun.

I started with Jellyseer and later learned about Reiverr. Haven’t settled on which one I like more yet. They both provide basically the same information but in different ways.

The server itself is running nothing but the hypervisor. I have a few VMs running on it that makes it easy provision isolated environments. Additionally, it’s made it easy to snapshot a VM before performing maintenance in case I need to roll back. The containers provide isolation from the environment itself in the event of a service gone awry.

Coming from cloud environments where everything is a VM, I’m not sure what issues you’re referring to. The performance penalty is almost non-existent while the benefits are plenty.
