I love those little Lenovo boxes, also recommend.

Proxmox has also been good for me - great for just quickly spinning something up to play with before committing.

A third, and hopefully final attempt at getting an iredmail setup going. SPF, DKIM & DMARC all checking out fine. It’s actually working this time. Need to get the ISP to change our PTR record though, last bit of the puzzle.

Also picked up a used negate device, so we now have pfsense fronting everything. That’s allowed me to move the original router to a better location and put it in AP mode.

Emby media server moved off a Synology and into a proxmox container. Finally, we can stream high def with the hardware acceleration we weren’t getting before.

Years ago, I’d laugh at this.

Yet it slowly becomes reality with every passing year. It’s bad enough that we’ve essentially lost pay-to-own in favour of subscription models for a lot of popular software.

On our corp network, the amount of GPOs I’ve had to mangle together just to make Win11 usable is insane. The users are still going to have a fit in October.

I’d honeytrap this with a software camera that just plays filth and shock sites on a loop :)

I lean on Irfanview+plugins for this kind of processing - it’s the bedrock of some of my workflows.

Will definitely give this a try though, thank you for sharing :)

Ahhh. Sweet, sweet schadenfreude.

The first BloodRayne game (after the intro level, which is plain bad and almost nazi-free) sees a lot of bitten, shot, dismembered, burned, possessed and exploded nazis.

Honestly the gameplay is a bit clunky even for its time, but if what you need is dead nazis then it very firmly ticks the box.

Also remastered: BloodRayne: Terminal Cut

Well done :)

Altitude would be fun to see reborn. Hit 4-5k players at its peak on Steam. Now pretty much dead apart from dedicated league play.

It’s a 2D flight/arena game with a variety of game modes, aircraft to fly, weapons, perks, powerups etc. Very arcade.

• ✅ Fun
• ✅ Accessible (Win/Mac/Linux/Steam)
• ✅ All ages
• ✅ Casual (games last minutes, not hours)
• ✅ Not AAA
• ✅ Free
• ✅ Runs on potato

Only drawback according to the assignment:

• ❌ Not FOSS

I’ve stuck with iredmail for years. Spin up a VM, grab the installer, and see how it performs for you.

Main topic aside, what are you doing putting bread and butter together with a fork?

All the small appliance suggestions so far are great - they remove a lot of the danger and give you an easy place to start. Same for the safety items. Even with no fear, it is sensible to have an extinguisher and fire blanket in the kitchen.

When you feel that you are ready to start picking up knives and working with flame, do it with a friend or family member that is suitably understanding & willing to teach. Simply watching it done is still familiarising yourself with the process and hopefully reducing your fears.

My sister is the same way - I am teaching her slowly. We started with baking, as all the prep work is done cold with only one heating process. Not exactly healthy, but it it gets the ball rolling on working with heat.

Not that you should have to, but web results can be disabled in start search.

Winkey+R will open the no-frills run menu. As long as you know the exact exe or component name, you’re good:

• notepad
• calc
• cmd
• control
• control userpasswords2
• mstsc
• ncpa.cpl
• diskmgmt.msc
• devmgmt.msc
• shutdown (with /s, /r or /h switches)

A few decent ones there.

However, voters don’t listen to economists. If they’re not happy with the status quo, they vote for disrupting the status quo even if experts tell them that that’s a bad idea.

Also see: Brexit.

Sadly it does not stop them whining about the consequences of their poor decision-making.
