Big part of the internet is going through Cloudflare these days, so it tracks you as you browse, and does something clever to figure out if you're a robot. Google can do the same, they'll have a cookie on you. If they're not sure they'll show you one of those challenges.
Interesting how as soon as someone becomes a billionaire they become a dickhead, at least publicly.
Ubuntu LTS because that's what I was most comfortable with at the time, now I'd really like to switch over to Debian but I'm not sure I can be bothered until I really have to, everything is working well at the moment. It's running in Proxmox.
Got Disney plus subscription for free through some other stuff I need to have, but it's the ad supported standard plan, you pay and still get loads of ads. Even with the subscription I just download stuff for my Jellyfin.
Nginx Proxy Manager.
Yeah I can see the Jellyfin UI, but the streaming fails, or is blocked by Cloudflare.
Self hosted FreshRSS is what I've been using, it's very good.
I use DDG like others have mentioned, but I also like Perplexity, because it's not a chat like ChatGPT, it just answers queries without trying too hard to chat to you.
Used to have a couple when they had loads of content on them, now that everyone has their own service and only their own content, and higher prices, I cancelled all of them and set up Jellyfin.
It's just a convenience problem, if a service had actual good content and didn't cost a fortune I'd be right back on it. But no way I'm paying for 10 streaming services.
F**kface, it's not really about anything, just very funny ramblings, listen a lot when I'm cooking and can't have full attention on something educational.
Why are CEOs always shit? Someone must've done a study into the type of people who want to be CEO, majority probably being psychopaths.
They write so many articles on Twitter it will never die
If that's annoying have the people writing this article looked at their own website, ads on ads (and ads placeholders with adblock) with cookie and email subscription popups and SEO bullshit.
And they just bought Hotel Chocolat, one of my favourite places to go for fancy chocolate, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-67436228.
So now that place will go to shit, I'll have to find another one.
That's what I don't get, their stock goes down for a while but then people think it's a good time to buy and it goes back up. Like it doesn't affect them at all. Casually kill 400 people and barely anything happens.
