Indeed, I've sucked at guitar and rubiks cubes in the last 5 years and now I'm good at both of them!

Now I just need to work out why I'm only getting 6MBps transfer speeds. All my research has gained me a whole 2MBps which is a 50% increase, but all things online say they're getting over 100...
Yeah I get a little obsessive about my new hobbies to the point where a whole day of tinkering goes by and I barely notice.
I had an 11hr messing about session a couple weeks ago then we had to go out for a family meal because of some important occasion (my 40th birthday) and I got to the meal with a massive headache from staring at a screen all day, only to find it was a surprise party.
My Wife could not understand how on earth I hadn't worked out it was a surprise party beforehand, but my head was in setting Proxmox up and getting things working.
Not OP but I've been playing with Wireguard (and failing) for a short while and have noticed an option in my Android Phone's settings to always connect to this VPN. Probably that
Mine is the default password for the first router I got when I moved out. It's just 8 random letters, but they're MY 8 random letters.
I change the password to it whenever we move supplier, along with the SSID, and all my IOT devices just jump back in
I jumped in on Outlook when it was starting up and got [email protected]. I still have a Hotmail account though
Absolutely the same. I needed an account for Red Alert or something like that (Total Annihilation?) and it's still my gamer tag and screen name.
I remember the days when I spent time convincing people to use chat apps. The last one that stuck was WhatsApp.
I've since stopped installing new chat apps because people won't use them.
WhatsApp just works. Wanna video call my Mum? Push a button. Wanna send a Lemmy meme to my mates? Yeah it's 3 taps.
I open up Facebook on me birthday and press the ❤️ on the birthday messages then shut it down and don't use it for another year.
But if I do that with WhatsApp then I don't hear from people I actually care about.
I actually have a friend that refuses to use WhatsApp like I do with FaceFuck. "How does she do it then?" I hear you ask.
She uses Facebook Messenger.
That's the hold Meta has on our communications
I am currently working on a system that will allow me to get rid of all the letters but one. A pirate loves R but he always loves the C
My wife pays for X and y, and I pay for Z because I get next day delivery and Z is just kinda included in that. I would prefer for my wife to not pay for X and Y because they're profiteering cunts (as is Z but I like next day delivery).
Wife won't stop paying for X and Y because she doesn't understand how R works. She doesn't understand how X and Y works either but they do work all the time and R doesn't because I'm still learning.
The other day I couldn't get R working properly. While I was trying to fix it she went and paid for Z to watch the thing I was trying to fix on R.
Wife doesn't understand why that was a massive insult.
I would go one further and recommend installing Portainer too. Install Docker, then find the code to install Portainer. Then you can log in to Portainer and use that to manage Docker.
I've tried to use Docker for a number of years (and succeeded!) but have recently used Portainer and found it so much easier.
I now install the Portainer client on every instance of Docker that I use and track them all through a single IP address on my lan.
I had read about Docker Compose but never followed it up. But now with Portainer I've come to realise that "Compose" is "Stacks" in Portainer. So now I can just open up my Portainer and copy/paste a compose into a stack and save it, and it fires up the programme for me.
If I want to replicate that program somewhere else I can either copy/paste my stack, or use the "replicate" function to just add it to another machine.
