  • knock 3 times

    oh boy, the knock 3 times rule, that brings back some memories. I spent a miserable 6 months as a Mormon missionary and my first companion would always knock 3 times. I always felt it was rude, especially when he would do it at a house where we knew someone was home and just not answering the door.

  • A vertical mouse saved me from carpal tunnel syndrome. A few years ago I started developing wrist and elbow pain in my mouse arm along with the numbness. It was getting so bad I would take frequent breaks to ice my wrist and would wear a brace at night. I started looking for ergonomic mice and decided to try out a $15 Anker one from Amazon. I felt relief the day I started using it and within a few days the symptoms were gone entirely.

  • Durability is a big concern for me as well. I bought a Pixel 2 at launch and had it until June of this year, almost 6 years. It was still in decent shape, but the battery had become unreliable and the cost of paying someone to replace it and fix the cracked screen was almost as much as a new in box Pixel 5. Hopefully my Pixel 5 will also last me a similarly long time.

    What kind of problems have you had with your 6?

  • I've used ledger on and off for a few years. I use it along with ledger-autosync to process the transaction files I download from Amazon, Paypal, and my bank. I haven't gone so far as to automate the import of those files, I just download them manually, but it does support that.

  • Wow, I'm also ex-mormon and found myself in a similar position when I received a book on Isaiah written by my grandfather. It sat on my shelf for years until I was working my way through an ancient to modern literature reading list and read it alongside the old testament.

  • In the U.S., the CAN-SPAM act requires companies to honor your opt out/unsubscribe request within 10 days. For particularly agressive mailing lists that don't honor unsubscribes I will happily report them as spam to my email provider, report them to the FTC, and send a cease and desist letter I generated with chatGPT to their legal@example.com mailbox.

  • For managing my library on disk, I just recently made the effort to set up the *arr apps. I love having the metadata, tagging, organizing, and file naming all consistent and automated. Previously I used mp3tag and filebot to manage them and it was way more manual. Everything is set up with docker-compose and Ansible.

    Library file stuff:

    • Two Radarr instances, one for 4k and another for lower resolutions
    • Sonarr for TV
    • Lidarr for music
    • Two readarr instances, one for epub/pdf and one for audiobooks
    • Jackett
    • deluge+openVPN

    For library frontend stuff:

    • Jellyfin for movies, tv, music, audiobooks
    • Plex, for when Jellyfin is acting up
    • Jellyseer for TV & movie requests
    • LaunchBox for videogames and emulators
    • Calibre + calibreWeb for ebooks & syncing to my Kobo eReader

    Haven't set up yet:

    • flaresolverr
    • unpackerr
    • audiobookshelf

    Doesn't exist yet/wishlist:

    • *arr app for emulator ROMs (I'll have to check out romm, looks pretty cool!)
