What did you see?: October 2023
Sorry, bit late with this. I should be more on the ball going forward.
Is there a site to watch sporting REPLAYS?
strikeout.im and cricfree.io work great for LIVE sports, but if I can’t watch it live, and want to watch later, I’ve missed it....
It's getting to be soup season. What are your favorite soups?
It’s split pea or ham and potato for me....
What happens when people die with metal in or on them?
Like if they die with braces, a metal retainer, earrings, a gold tooth, a pacemaker, et cetera.
VPN blocking VPN connections
Slightly confusing, and not necessarily directly piracy-related. I run OpenVPN on my Netgear router that allows me to connect to devices on my home network while I am away from home. It works great for most devices, but I cannot connect to any devices that are running Mullvad VPN. Disabling Mullvad on those devices allows me to...
What are good web hosting services for a social community platform? should I use AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, or Something else? (Needs to be budget friendly)
What is the worst thing someone in the Simpson family ever did?
Crazy? I Was Crazy Once. They Locked Me In A Room. A Rubber Room. A Rubber Room With Rats. And Rats Make Me Crazy.

Anyone know how to test external optical disc drives at a thrift store?
In short I need a cheap external disc drive and dont want to cough up the 20$ and buy online so thrift store it is. I cant really come up with a way to test these usually usb powered drives besides somehow setting up a computer or asking the workers for help (doubt they will). Does anyone have an idea to narrow down if a drive...
Why advertise on YouTube?
Why do companies advertise on YouTube when their ads are only used to annoy people into paid accounts? I never see anything, I am interested in.
Weekly low-hanging fruit thread #20
This thread is where all the takes from idiots (looking at you Armchair Warlord) and screenshots of twitter posts/youtube thumbnails go.
Why so many *arr services? Why not 1 service that works with all media types?
I am almost done building my first self hosted streambox through Docker. That’s a total of 16 instances, each fulfilling 1 specific role....
The blowhole in whales and dolphins is really their nose.
That’s where they breathe from.
10 Year Old Son Clears The Second Capstone Dungeon In Diablo 4...
NOT the first capstone dungeon…The second capstone dungeon that gets you into the nightmare level…With a level 58 ball lightning sorcerer! See the following video to find out how. It’s fairly simple....
save the planet
It struck me that the political reason behind climate change, saving the planet and all is just so they don’t have to fix anything and can keep all the money instead of helping people.
qBittorrent network interface bind not working?
I am using ProtonVPN, and have (or so I thought) set up qBittorrent to bind to the network interface that ProtonVPN is using (tun0). The connection symbol turns red if I turn off the VPN, and downloads will stop. However, when checking the torrent address on ipleak.net, it seems that this bind is not working properly - my real...
tooth fairy
When I was a child I had a revelation; if Santa isn’t real then the tooth fairy also isn’t real. Then growing up, if the moon landing isn’t real then nothing (of the same kind ) we are told is real.
gpu performance test
What’s the best way to evaluate your gpu performance on a Linux? I am running a 4060 with the Nvidia 535 driver. Should I use glmark? What is a good score?
Costume Quest 1 and 2 - looking for recs for similar games
In Costume Quest, you play as one of two fraternal twins who go out to trick-or-treat, but then your sibling gets kidnapped by monsters and you go on a quest to rescue them. Along the way, you collect new costumes (which give you new abilities), get friends to join you on your quest, and collect power ups....
(PSA) How to get iDrive working on Linux
I recently switched to iDrive for my backup needs but couldn’t work out how to get it running on Linux. iDrive provide a series of scripts for Debian machines but this is obviously no good for non Debian systems (using Nixos here). I read about a method of hacking the scripts so they think you’re running Debian, but this...
why cant Steam Deck detect display resolution?
Every PC I’ve ever used automatically detects and adjusts resolution to the display you connect to it. Even Nintendo Switch will detect when it’s docked and automatically adjust the display resolution. But on Steam Deck you literally have to adjust the display resolution for every game, every time you switch displays....

Anyone have experience with buying on eBay?
I bought a “Buy It Now” item, payment went through. Two days later, I got an email saying I got a refund. I looked at the order and I looks like I indeed got a full refund. There are no notes or messages from the seller, so I’m not really sure what happened. Should I message the seller? Report that I haven’t received the...
