    As someone who was an extreme diehard fan of diablo lore (hell, look at my username), I’ll never forgive blizzard for tearing it to shreds since Diablo 3. The real game ended at 2 (and the books written after, but before 3) when it comes to lore and story.


  • This started happening to me a little while ago and slowly got worse and worse (re initializing devices didn’t stick and I even went as far as buying a new ZigBee stick). While it ruined a weekend, I migrated everything to Z2M. To date, not a single device has dropped from the network. Zha has definitely borked something.

    I’ve tried reporting issues before with other HA things, but have always got the “not my problem” treatment from frenck, so I just went straight to migrating to Z2M instead of bothering this time lol




  • Note that it doesn’t prevent sso sharing. I was signed into Amazon and a separate Firefox (actually librewolf) tab I had opened looking up a movie star on… IMDb force created an account for me using my Amazon account. No I did not get a prompt to accept it and no I did not click anywhere near the login buttons. Seen that this has happened to a few people but not everyone so it’s almost like they’re slow rolling it.

    I’ve since isolated Amazon into its own profile altogether and added Amazon to unlock on my main browser profile. And of course requested deletion of my sudden imdb account










  • So I’m definitely not familiar with swedish politics, but does this site actually represent the entire party? The party site is just a very vague description of some group of people that sound like they’re anti left and anti right at the same time. The Wikipedia article on the party doesn’t really help make sense to what they expect to accomplish, but again that could just be my ignorance to it.

    Would love to know more about all this, with more reliable sources if possible (vs a website that just says something without really providing sources). Mullvad is about trying to protect privacy with fighting big brother, and I’m really not seeing anything about the party that indicates it wants the opposite.

    I personally haven’t really seen much difference between the two except Wayland eating more CPU and being rather tedious for hybrid (Ryzen/Nvidia) setups (still haven’t resolved it crashing when I change TTY). I’d personally say stick to whatever default your desktop environment runs on…XWayland helps with the whole compatibility concerns at least.

    Just my experience though, yours could be different depending on your machine and general setup


  • Speaking from personal experience: get a spare laptop or external drive and jump right into it.

    Gentoo is where I learned Linux. The handbook is so good and is my highest recommended source of getting into Linux, assuming you take it slow to understand it.

    While a VM might be an option, I think you’ll have less problems on a direct system… But maybe I’m wrong, I’ve never tried installing Gentoo on a VM before.

    Just know, this system will need care… Keep Gentoo updated frequently, else you’ll have issues with dependencies. If this is your first time digging into Linux, you’ll goof. But don’t fret, for there’s always a fix!

    If you find yourself needing something less demanding, my go to has been Mint for that. However these days I’ve actually been re creating my laptop on Gentoo with an external USB C. Turns out even on that it runs games better, so can’t wait to move it to an nvme lol


  • This is exactly how my network is setup. All devices log to my syslog server which I feed into a database with a self made python app, and Grafana goes from there. It’s been running nonstop for like 5 years without any problems, so I’d say your in the right path!

    It’s also helped me catch things like:

    • finding out android leaked IPs outside VPN tunnels on connect (prior to headlines claiming this)
    • finding out nslookup on termux ignores the phone’s DNS settings and tries to use Google instead
    • finding other devices that ignore my DNS server settings
    • noticing that my work Mac will turn itself on in some weird silent passive mode in the middle of the night to try and send data to apple (sleep or powered off don’t matter) - caught this from the logs sent by my router
