  • I agree with this. Self-hosting requires the user to understand their network, their software, how it all interacts.

    If you provide a hardware product and call it a solution, people are going to expect a turn-key solution like a plug-and-play router.

    You’re going to end up supporting a bunch of newbies who, by no fault of their own, can’t tell you an error code in the console let alone whatever UI you give them.

    I think a better solution would be a course that walks newbies through self hosting.







  • On December 11, 1939, the U.S. Government sued the Ball Brothers, the Hazel-Atlas Glass Co., and the Owens-Illinois Glass Co. under monopoly charges based on the Hartford-Empire and Owens licensing agreements. The plaintiff claimed that small producers were being frozen out of business or prohibited from entering manufacture by the nature of the licenses. Almost a decade later, in 1947, the justices rendered a final verdict. The court prohibited the Ball Brothers from purchasing or otherwise controlling any other businesses engaged in the same manufacturing processes – in other words, the small jar producers. In addition, Ball had to divest itself of the Three Rivers Glass Co. (already closed for almost a decade) that Ball had acquired in 1936. Ball sold the property


  • I really don’t know the architecture of fmovies but my guess is that it works similarly to sudo-lol but with specific providers instead of a long list of available providers.

    Even still, I’ve wondered how those providers load new content since I’ve never seen a way for end users to upload new files.

    Shows like Last Week Tonight get uploaded almost the same day.

    Anyway, to answer your question, I think fmovies is back with their .lol tld though I’ve moved over to sudo.

    There’s always going to be a replacement because clearly there’s a market for it. If only the people who actually hold the rights would realize that.





  • The government is cagey about how, exactly, this criminal activity was unearthed, noting only that Herrera “tried to access a link containing apparent CSAM.” Presumably, this “apparent” CSAM was a government honeypot file or web-based redirect that logged the IP address and any other relevant information of anyone who clicked on it.

    It looks like a combination of bad opsec and clicking on a download link.

    I know there has been some back and forth whether it’s good to use a VPN with tor and feel like this is just going to open up that conversation again.


  • Chicken thigh with Roasted Vegetables

    • Pan fry chicken thigh, making sure the thickest part reaches 165° F
    • Season to taste (I recommend a pinch of kosher salt and a good helping of black pepper but that’s just me. You can also go savory with rosemary sprig for the last 5 minutes of cooking)
    • While chicken is cooking, put chosen vegetables in a bowl, lightly cover with olive oil. Sprinkle salt
    • bake in oven at 400°F for 45 minutes

    If you’re feeling adventurous:

    • sear both sides of chicken in a Dutch oven (or cast iron)
    • while waiting, season vegetables as instructed above
    • once both sides of the chicken are sufficiently browned, add vegetables to the Dutch oven
    • Cover and stick it in the oven at 375°F for 30-45 minutes depending on how done you want your vegetables

    If you use the latter method, be sure to cook the chicken all the way through. Vegetables will be soaked in chicken fat.


  • I’ve been on a low fodmap diet for a while. This is a really broad question without some parameters but I’ll give it a go.

    It also depends on what the goal of the low fodmap is (e.g. weight loss, diabetic control, etc.)

    That said:

    • a quick and easy way is to assume all processed carbs are out. This isn’t 100% true across the board but helps you draw a line somewhere. Processed carbs being things like bread, candy bars, pasta, etc.
    • nuts like walnuts and peanuts are great snacks
    • eggs for breakfast or if you want something more filling you can do oatmeal with some oatmilk. Not regular milk
    • for meals, do whole foods like a chicken thigh with some peppers or a lean steak with spinach
    • since you love potatoes, a great trick is to make a ton of roasted cut potatoes and put them in a container. Add them to dishes as you see fit. Even though I don’t do low FODMAP, I still do this
