Eskating cyclist, gamer and enjoyer of anime. Probably an artist. Also I code sometimes, pretty much just to mod titanfall 2 tho.

Introverted, yet I enjoy discussion to a fault.

  • I didn’t tho.

    You’re confusing my homelab with my dads OMV NAS that is running kopia as its only non-standard service because I wanted to use it as my off-site target.

    I wasn’t presenting OMV as the solution to all of OPs examples, I literally just commented to point out “hey this is kinda like hexos but foss”.

    To which you responded “lol no, there is no comparison”. Which is both untrue, and a rude way to go about saying anything.


  • I don’t use docker via a GUI. And I don’t run docker at all on the NAS running OMV.

    My backup solution is Kopia. Two servers, each running an instance that backs up local storage to the other.

    OP isn’t talking about a full homelab. If all you need is a home VPN and some network storage via SMB, OMV is fine.

    For my homelab, OMV would be clunky af. For the NAS at my dad’s end, it’s ideal.





  • That’s unfortunately not how words work.

    Get into etymology and you’d be surprised at the number of words whose current meanings are complete 180s from their historical definitions.

    You can’t just look at a word a decide what it means. Very few people use the word feminist to intend what you are claiming it means.

    Suggesting they secretly intend your interpretation is mad, and claiming everyone except you is using the word wrong just means youre the one who has its definition wrong.


  • are we just amusing ourselves until death?

    IMO, yes. But just calling it “entertainment” is a bit reductionist, I think.

    But yeah. And I don’t see anything is wrong with that. Having a cat is cool, video games are fun, and good company is fulfilling in a powerful, indescribable, way.

    To experience that kind of stuff, and for others to do the same, as much and as often as possible, is what I live for.

    Yeah, there’s a lot of bad stuff in the world. But I’m able to make my corner of it quite liveable. And not just for myself, but for friends and family.

    I can’t save the world, but I can decide to make the sliver of it that I’ll interact with throughout my life, a little bit nicer.

    The part I struggle with, is finding a way to make living, that makes things better, not worse. Jobs that don’t contribute towards people having less and less time for the things that make life worth living, are non-existent.







  • YouTube isn’t a piece of software. It’s a web service.

    You can’t “crack” it to trick it into thinking you have a license to use all of its features. The authentication required to access the paid content is a lot more complex than a program running on hardware you can control.

    You’re essentially asking the same question as people who want to access netflix for free.

    The answer is no. But someone else might’ve ripped the content you want to see and made it available as a torrent.
