Tastes like LLM to me

Why?

Plus oneesan is “older sister”.

Yeah… But at the same time, they didn’t HAVE to do 4 arcs and to catch up to Rogue One. They could have just made one arc into a season and given it the room to breathe.

Edit: there are seriously great sets in the Season, which just makes the… Suboptimal… Ones stand out.

No, don’t worry, not as bad as Mando. And again, plenty of people praise Andor S2 even beyond S1, so, don’t get discouraged by just my opinion.

For me, the first arc was just… Bad. For multiple reasons, which you will discover. The second arc gets a lot better, the 3rd I actually really enjoyed and the 4th was… Ok.

Again. To me.

Discussing this without spoilers is difficult, but in very general terms: I feel like they threw overboard too much of the gritty realism for “cool” character moments. Instead of logically motivated decisions, things happen because plot. Chances for character development are squandered left and right. Everything is rushed (because apparently this should have been 4 seasons, not 4 arcs?), except when it is super dragged out for no reason. This deals a blow to the impact of scenes, because characters have no time to react to devastating occurrences. And, while petty, I have to mention it: the set design got way worse, esp. in arc 1, but also sometimes later on. Extremely obvious greenscreen/the volume scenes for scenes where it would have been trivial to find onsite locations.

It is still the best star wars out there, just… A 6.5/10 instead off 11/10.

In my personal opinion.

I absolutely love season 1, it might be the single best season of television I have ever seen. The acting, the sets, the music, the writing!, the way it weaves its themes into the story masterfully, ever second feels intentional and characters are real, breathing beings that grow and change and hurt, and how every action has a consequence and motivation. It’s perfect.

Season 2 - to me - is bafflingly bad, with so many issues that I’ve legitimately, and somewhat ironically, given the topic of this post, considered starting a YouTube channel over it. It feels like after finally being given a good Starwars show in season 1, the fan-base has gaslit itself into liking season 2.

Indeed.

Wait, no, hold on

My dad loves the Wank. No idea why. It’s a nice view, sure, but there’s so many nicer ones. Instead of exploring new views and mountains in the alps, he just climbs the Wank like 10 times a year, trying to beat his record (1h10min)

At some point, the Epstein files become the distraction. So much horrible shit has happened in this presidency already, with real consequences for innocent people.

So brushing every bit of that aside to just meme “Epstein files” over and over seems like a GREAT service to Trump.

Is he in those files? Oh, definitely. Will he be i n the released version? Probably not. So, what will you do? Keep screaming for the RealTM files all through this presidency, letting him off the hook for everything else because “muh files”?

Wow, such a bad-ass we got here… 😂

Yeah, all of the above, but also: blacklisting Pinterest from all my searches is almost worth the ten bucks a month on its own, lmao.

Planning to host a Nix caching server, and have CI build all package and NixOS outputs on every push to git, then in turn pushing the output artifacts to the cache. Would save me a good chunk of time when tinkering with VMs that haven’t seen manual updates in a while.

Only thing is, I’m not sure how to approach building and caching NixOS configs that receive agenix secrets in their input. Obviously those should not be cached…

You do not need your fingerprint or any other biometric to use a passkey.

You do not lose access to passkeys when you lose your device.

Yes, and I do werether the recipient also knows how to use it.

So, for like, 1% of my mails.

More like: paying someone to maintain the hardware.

Anyways.

Just FYI, your mails with a provider like Proton are not E2E encrypted unless you exclusively wrote with other Proton customers (in which case I assume they are. No idea). Otherwise it’s just encrypted at rest.

I dint really see the benefit over doing it completely yourself, not even offering metadata to a provider, and also having encryption at rest, while maintaining full compatibility with mail clients 🤔

I can access my password manager via the browser from any device.

Not a VPS.

You can store Passkeys in open source password managers.

I don’t know most of my passwords, so the step to passkeys doesn’t feel like a big one. I also really like the flow of pressing Login; Bitwarden pops up a prompt without me initiating it; I press confirm. Done, logged in, and arguably more secure due to the surrounding phishing and shared secrets benefits.

We host most stuff at home, and then additionally some services at Hetzner on an (auctioned) root server. Bloody nice to get really good hardware for cheap, plus unlimited data with either 1 or 10Gbit synchronous network speed, a dedicated IPv4,…

Stuff like my mail server lives there because it HAS to be available, and doing it at home, and doing it well, is next to impossible.

I’m planning a nix hydra + cache server, which will probably also live on the Hetzner server, simply because it’ll have pretty intense jobs to run a lot of the time and I’m not a fan of having the noise of spun-up fans at home.

Both solutions have their place, is what I’m saying / agreeing.

• every VM with state backs up its state to the NAS once a day
• client devices rsync most of their home folder to the NAS once an hour
• at 3:15 in the morning, a Borg backup job starts pushing the days changes to a Hetzner storage box

Through borg, I have the Option to go back to any point in time with the backups. I will probably never need this, hence why it happens in this step, not on the rsync job to the NAS.

Things like movies and tv shows are not backed up, they are replaceable. All in all, about 2tb of documents, pictures, and VM state is backed up to Hetzner, out of the 16tb on the NAS.

Pick and choose your battles.
