  • Having the general public feeling that they need to carry a gun for self defense just sounds crazy to me.

    Stabbings have risen here in the UK but generally it’s either a rare occasion where some nutter is on the run or it’s gang related. In general I would never feel the need to carry my own knife around for self defense. I don’t know anyone who carries a knife around with them for self defense.


  • I love my bed. I do though sit on the floor in the lounge. I vary better the floor and the sofa. I find it comfortable.

    I think it stemmed from when I was younger. My mum was quite obsessive with being tidy. To not mess up the sofa and cushions,.I’d just sit on the floor.

    I live in the UK where generally our lounges are carpeted so it’s not a solid floor. Our weather is typical crap though so it’s due to being hot.

    I have a couple of services, including nginx (a website) that run though a Cloudflare Tunnel. No need to open up ports and certificates are automatically managed.

    https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/connections/connect-networks/

    I also use ddclient to update my own personal domain with my internets dynamic IP (no need for a dynamic DNS provider). I have to do this as I host Jellyfin and Cloudflare don’t support streaming through their tunnels. So yes this is exposed to the internet. It does sit behind a caddy reverse proxy though.

    I also run a wireguard VPN so that I can dial in when out the home. Im in Spain next week so can use that to get BBC iPlayer etc. The wireguard uses an address that is dynamically updated by ddclient (domain is hosted by Cloudflare)

    Emails I don’t bother self hosting. I actually pay for simplelogin and send emails there via aliases. They then route to a single Proton email address.
