I need someone to explain to me why anyone uses WhatsApp when literally anything else exists. I’ve heard “because someone I needed to communicate with uses it”, but why did •they• start using it? Who was the first user who started this snowball of doom? Messenger I get, if you’re on FB already it’s a no-brainer for normies. But WhatsApp is its own thing though? So whyyyyy?…
Took dog for a walk, chose violence.

Wifey is beginning to Notice™️. Things are worse than I thought.
Me: Planing out a network subnet overhaul, doing IP space math in my head, ordering steps to minimize downtime.
Also me, 10 minutes later: Trapped in my boss’s truck because I can’t find the door handle.

When I inevitably go full warlord and become King of Alberta it’ll be over for you people.
The more I read about anything post-v29 the more I think anyone running serious nodes won’t be updating past 29 for years / until we see the nerd drama is over. Too many tween schoolgirl hormones flying around to bet the stack required to run a node.
I’ve got an “enterprise” connection; I pestered them about it and they’re insistent that they only do static IPv6. All their IPv4 is CGNAT, even on the business side.
I want to specifically avoid services like DDNS and Cloudflare (especially Cloudflare); current plan is a tiny VPS somewhere I don’t hate acting as an IPv4 gateway.
Is anyone out there running public services IPv6-only? I know I know, best practices, dual-stack, blah blah blah, but in a current real-world scenario…
I ask because my local ISP can’t/won’t offer static IPv4s and says “everyone puts Cloudflare in front anyways” but some of us self-hosters don’t wanna.
I’m getting better at this whole computer thing…

I’ve now had 2 work Telegram accounts banned with no reason given. The second one was a paid account, no difference. If we didn’t need it for comms with a third party it’d be all aboard the self-hosting train.

Yesterday I swapped a coil on a generator. Today I swapped a network switch in -30 weather in the dark with a headlamp. Would still rate this best job I’ve had in the last decade ❤️
(To be fair the “in the dark with a headlamp” part was by choice; I wanted the most miserable task of the day done and gone.)

But do we want them here? I’m torn. I’d love to onboard my extended family but I see what they post and engage with and sometimes think it’s better to leave them in the trad SM mental asylum than bring them and their troubles here 🫤

I got it up and tested: It’s >1mbps download and upload, which is enough for messaging (as advertised), but you definitely wouldn’t be streaming media (ie Spotify) on it.

Joking aside, I've assembled a proof-of-concept for a cash version of Bitcoin. See the video for a quick into, and the website (https://bem.taylorperron.com) for more details.

ISO someone to draw me a waifu decal for / of my car (Yuki, a light-blue 2004 Lexus RX330). Chibi style, dark hair, puffy light-blue winter coat (doesn't need to be the same blue as the car). Holding a Toyota 3MZ-FE engine like a toddler holds a house cat (engine doesn't need to be highly detailed, just vaguely recognizable). Will provide reference photos of the car and engine and more details as requested. Budget is 150k sats, but there's wiggle room if you can either make a good argument for more or if I fall in love with your style (portfolio or samples links appreciated).
