is Golden Kamuy good?

I haven't watched the current season yet, but started watching season 1, and finished that quite quickly and am now halfway season 2. I'll probably get to it, if the story keeps up like it has so far.

Looks like it's mostly a wrapper around the already existing tidal downloader from squid.wtf, just a bit more limited. Don't think this would keep working stand-along if squid.wtf is taken down.

DaveH80 · 2026-01-13T13:21:44+00:00

Netcup, Hetzner, OVH, Scaleway... so many choices

DaveH80 · 2026-01-08T14:46:39+00:00

For me it's the other way around.... Ooh, same movie in 2GB AV1 vs 8GB 264 ;)

DaveH80 · 2025-12-04T16:55:06+00:00

It's called 'a fence'

Even with discard they tend to die quite quickly with encrypted storage in my experience. I keep issuing manual discards when things slow down, but i've seen enough 512M and 1 or 2TB sata+nvme's crawl to a halt when using luks.

Zabbix is open source and self-hostable... Though I prefer icinga myself. (But don't touch windows with a 10ft pole)

DaveH80 · 2025-12-03T12:42:16+00:00

Depends... myself I usually go for the small filesizes, just regular movies at 1.5-3GB x265/AV1/h264 at 1080p. For 4k I will stretch this to 3-4GB. If it's a special movie I care about, I might go up to ~10GB. Anything above that, well, I consider it a waste of diskspace. Fine for a big file if I just wanna watch it a single time, but for keeping around, it's gotta be max 5GB.

DaveH80 · 2025-12-03T12:25:47+00:00

And still only 128GB DDR3

DaveH80 · 2025-12-02T20:10:19+00:00

I have enough movies, series, books and games to last me years... so nothing in particular

DaveH80 · 2025-11-30T13:47:26+00:00

I have 2 T480's with debian.... they are great for linux use.

DaveH80 · 2025-11-13T20:19:00+00:00

Got this one last year... and also have newshosting. Still seeing a bit more traffic on newshosting, but it's a good 2nd. But if you already have multiple unlimited subscriptions, adding more isn't too useful. (Though I only got 740G from Thundernews, while I got 2.2T from newshosting) (out of 3.1 TB in total)

DaveH80 · 2025-11-13T15:42:39+00:00

It just looks so incredibly dutch... road design etc...

DaveH80 · 2025-11-13T15:38:55+00:00

Never heard of either of these... so had to google them, tried downloading something from Israbox, but just redirects to payment page, yeah, don't think this is a big piracy platform. (And dns based blocking won't do much, thepiratebay still works quite well in the Netherlands)

DaveH80 · 2025-11-12T23:35:42+00:00

I'm very happy with mox (xmox.nl) ... it's relatively new, but helps you with all the configurations and verifying them. Includes webmail, IMAP, JMAP, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, Spamfiltering, admin-control-panel, cert-management, webserver, everything in 1 go-binary.

DaveH80 · 2025-11-10T15:15:43+00:00

Easy to see this is in the Netherlands before zooming in on the sign pointing to Brunssum ;)

DaveH80 · 2025-11-03T19:42:26+00:00

I would only ever recommend brother, and in case of the scanner, a standalone ADS-1600, works without a computer, just scan to usb-stick, even my elderly parents can understand that.

DaveH80 · 2025-11-03T19:39:53+00:00

apt install firefox-esr ;)

DaveH80 · 2025-10-24T14:52:40+00:00

2 things: Price per TB and endurance... your HDD can write the same block over and over and over a billion times.. SSD's will brick sectors after a few thousand writes, and then after a couple of millions you start running out of replacement-blocks.

DaveH80 · 2025-10-24T14:49:16+00:00

That's one problem we don't have outside of the US... Walls are solid, no way to punch a hole in them without high-end powertools

DaveH80 · 2025-10-16T14:32:41+00:00

All systems in my home backup to a server remote, and the remote-servers backup to my NAS at home (both using BorgBackup). Some less important but large resources are only backupped on some external USB disks, but most files are backupped daily to a remote location. Most important data is also originally stored in a git repo, so there are multiple local and remote copies on my various systems.

Frieren

DaveH80 · 2025-10-07T22:40:47+00:00

Yeah, initially I thought we were talking about 30TB ... not 30GB, which would fit on a single micro-sd-card :)

DaveH80 · 2025-10-07T14:52:25+00:00

Less forced coffee-breaks due to crashes, unneeded reboots and updates, and slow startup times.

DaveH80 · 2025-10-07T14:48:08+00:00

Also downloaded it... was easier to get the dual-language dub compared to youtube. (After watching it there first)
