  • Longer as in, more questions.

    Anecdotally, I’ve noticed if you choose a “wrong” answer on some questions, it’ll stop the survey and just pay you whatever rate per question answered.

    It seems the first question is usually a litmus test to see if you’re answering reasonably truthfully or not, such as “Which of these did you most recently visit?” with some answers being bogus names or businesses not located around you, and one correct answer based on location data Google already has.





  • I actually didnt know how to start the Jackett install from the guide I posted, so I just googled and tried following a guide. One of the first steps says sudo mkdir /home/ubuntu/jackett_config

    I get a “No such file or directory”. Makes sense, ubuntu isn’t this user’s name. So I change it to point to “/home/user/jackett_config” and get the same result.

    This is what usually stops me from proceeding further.

  • I’m actually diving into Linux and Docker for the first time right now, and the setup you described is exactly what I’m looking to do. But seeing as this is my first time. I was hoping I’d be able to get some confirmation of what my idea is or find faults with my setup.

    In terms of hardware I have on-hand, I’ve got two laptops. One of which is a half-top, meaning it has no screen. The other is my daily driver. Both are running Linux Mint.

    The half-top has 1TB of storage and would have Docker installed with Plex/Jellyfin, the *arr suite, and HomeAssistant. On my daily driver, I would be running Portainer or Heimdall to access everything and make changes within the half-top itself. I would also use this to access any of the media I have stored in the half-top.

    Does that sound like everything would work?





  • Although Swype has been dead for quite a while now, that keyboard has been the best for swipe texting I’ve ever found. I tried Gboard, sucks. OpenBoard doesn’t have swipe functionality (that I’ve found), and am using AnySoft right now, with minimal success. I have to keep backspacing to retype words, or manually type them, sometimes my swipes don’t register into words, its just really annoying.

    I wish someone would rebuild Swype so i could go back to it.

    Edit: someone mentioned an OpenBoard fork that enables swipe texting and it’s great! So, if you’re looking for swipe, that’s my reco
