I may have to accept that Steam Remote Play is just something that doesn’t work. My 1Gbps wired network may be too slow or I only choose games that absolutely break when trying it, or maybe my monitor or controller just aren’t the wrong ones…

the IVPN client is superior purely because you can select custom subnets to be excluded from the block

I've become really good at accidentally redoing a lot of infra when I just wanted to check something real quick

I just installed them side by side and Zen really is a close mirror of Arc. Love to see it

Also I think I finally have a proper plan for the next homelab evolution and it should fit all in one yaml

Good morning!

I should move my overly complicated and mostly wrong 1 router setup to an even worse 3 router setup (since I still have that one from openfactory)

measuring the performance of game consoles by how much bandwidth the homebrew FTP server can handle

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 14/10/2026

also it's not RFC9092/RFC9632 compliant

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 14/10/2026

it seems like level66 migrated the geofeed from OpenFactory, at least the usual online tools now show my correct location. I really don't understand why geofeed.network.level66.network/geo… is empty though

i would like to make a prediction: someone will port GTA VI to the PS4

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 14/10/2026

ps4 modding is going great (I have 3 different FTP servers fighting about ports)

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 14/10/2026

they are really restricting old.reddit.com even more these days...

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 14/10/2026

the homebrew tutorial just asked me to disable DNS (what they mean is to unset the DNS servers to be able to use unblocked DNS)

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 14/10/2026

also I'm curerntly trying to use a PS4 and now I know how boomers feel when you rearrange a home screen icon and they can't use their phone anymore

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 14/10/2026

I really wonder what’s the use case for the PS4 having PPPoE support

the trick to using ansible is to just nest as many loops as humanly possible

I should bring a Skypephone to congress purely for the c3gsm

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 10/10/2026

I'd rather use the old Skype than Element

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 09/10/2026

So does this mean I don’t have to send OpenFactory their router back?

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 08/10/2026

also I bet you my plan to run an SMTP server with IPv6 rDNS being set through kubernetes is a great idea and I will accept no other opinion

Merlin 🎃 @merlin.toot.kif.rocks.ap.brid.gy · 08/10/2026

But it feels great to finally get stuff done again after being stuck for ages
