machiavellian

I must admit the bars are quite gas. If only Android shaped toolbars like liquid glass.

I am at the very beginning of my journey taking those first baby steps. As I don’t yet understand all the sysadmin stuff, I’m treading rather carefully to avoid making unfuckable mistakes.

I recently switched to Void on my daily driver so it has been a bit of a trial to get used to a new OS and configure it correctly. Nevertheless, it’s been a great learning experience.

Alongside it I’ve downloaded OpenWrt on my router and begun to configure it as well (still need to deal with the Wireguard and Unbound config).

For the actual server I managed to secure an old Dell Optiplex. In the near future, I plan to flash it with Libreboot and then install Debian or FreeBSD (apparently great ZFS support) on it. Though I’ve still no idea whether I should use Proxmox and how I should format my drives (one 500GB SSD and 4TB HDD) for maximum effiency and for the possibility of later easily upgrading my storage capacity.

When I’ve finally past these steps, I plan to selfhost music services, as well as few other basic services. My goal at the moment is to replace Spotify for my whole family. But it’s still a long way to go.

Did you mean GNU Icecat? Or Waterfox?

Just to clarify, this was not meant as an insult. Just a critique of the general consensus that people that sin cannot advocate for morality. And it was a funny meme I thought was relevant. :))

If this isn’t a trollpost and your not getting paid for it, then I’m just baffled on how wrong someone can be regarding generic historical facts. Aside from the idea itself, that it is somehow normal and even commendable to assist foreign states against enemies without them requesting it, all the while criticizing the US for similar actions, your opinion ignores the whole Molotov-Ribbentrop secret pact.

And for argument’s sake, let’s just pretend, that Soviets were of kind heart and mind and truly wanted to help and protect the Polish people from the horrifing Nazis they so clearly detested. Then why did they host a joint parade in Brest-Litovsk after having conquered Poland?? Or better yet, why did they mercilessly execute 20 000 officers in the woods of Katyn? Not to mention the fact that the Warsaw Uprising failed because the Soviets deliberatly waited for all future dissidents to be killed off, before “liberating” it.
