Ah, I see, just using the truenas software, not the hardware - fair enough! I have a zfs-based fileserver at home too, sounds similar to yours but I’ve been using Ubuntu. Very happy with it, no data loss in 12 years.

Sounds like a pretty beefy NAS for home! We have a truenas M40 at work, it has been pretty solid for the last 4 years.

Comments like this really don’t add anything to the conversation

Thanks for sharing, it’s good engagement with the online public, even if it is through Reddit. Hope more politicians do stuff like this in the future.

I bought dragon’s dogma: dark arisen for the switch a year or two ago. It’s pretty fun and the pawn system is a good innovation over npc party members in other games. I liked the voice lines they’d rattle off every so often… “goblins ill like fire!”

I’m currently working my way through Elden ring on PC, which is a lot more punishing combat-wise, but definitely has superior level design. I’ll come back to DD to finish the story at some point.

Dang, that’s a really cool phenomenon, thanks for sharing!

Yeah it’s been a big change. I was watering the garden every day a few weeks ago, now it’s wet all the time. I hope we have some dry days over Christmas.

THUPERTHELL!

Finally got my roof fixed too, so I don’t cringe every time it rains.

I’m sorry you had to go through that. Reddit really is a shadow of its former self these days.

I have a few Callistemons in my garden, hoping for some flowers one day, but for now I’m just happy they’re growing :)

Australian native plants are beautiful, I hope to have a fully-native garden at some point.

I’ll put the kettle on

Damn, those are some fast times, I never got below 25 minutes. Well done!

Fair enough! I used to live in st Lucia and run from guyatt park to the bridge and back for my 5ks, never joined the park run. Three turnarounds sounds frustrating. Hope you had a good run this morning!

Does anyone know of services where you can hire someone to be a personal assistant, organise repairs, bills, help with planning and general organising?

I am getting overwhelmed by things breaking right now and can’t deal with the stress of talking to another tradie who will lie through his teeth to sell me crap I don’t need.

Is there a UQ parkrun? Lots of people go running along the river there, and it’s extremely flat, although the path is a bit gravelly.

Man, what the hell.

Libvirt is great, been using it at home to run VMs for ~10 years now.

The ACCC website offers some tracking on this: https://www.accc.gov.au/consumers/petrol-and-fuel/petrol-price-cycles-in-major-cities#toc-petrol-prices-in-brisbane

I’m never organised enough to plan around the cycle, but it’s good to keep an eye on the chart if you’re like me and only fill up every 3-4 weeks.

There may have been some restriction or legislative reason regarding ipv6 until recently - China has gone from <5% to nearly 30% IPv6 capable since 2019: https://stats.labs.apnic.net/ipv6/CN

I really wanted to enjoy doom 3, but even 20 years later I haven’t finished the main campaign. Too many cheap jumpscares and the switching to the flashlight just to see, really put me off in the end. However, it was a pretty game for the time.

Amnesia is great, I haven’t finished that one either but it’s the good kind of horror, much more creepy and slow-burning.
