Back in the early 2000’s I started playing with Linux on old machines and have used Linux on an off since. Now I only have one Windows laptop that I need for a few very specific things and it’s Linux for any backend stuff. I’ve got pi’s, nucs and a NAS, all Linux now.

I am so grateful for all the hard work people have put in over the last two decades making sure we can step away from Windows without having to go to the Apple or Chrome walled gardens. I’ve made a career working in the Microsoft stack and I’m so done with them.

Now if I could just figure out how to turn my windows laptop into a VM on my ProxMox machine.

Flock cameras can be wrong and cops see everyone but themselves and rich people as criminals.

Just because you’re Jewish, it does not follow that you can’t be anti-Semitic.

However, just because you criticize Israel, it does not mean you’re anti-Semitic. Global corporate media has been pushing this false idea pretty hard.

Meanwhile, Faaiz Hasan, a national elections coordinator for the Green Party, framed the political debate in terms of class.

Because it really is. The Epstein class engages in all sorts of trickery and manipulation to make the majority fight amongst ourselves in order to distract us from their ongoing and increasing theft of capital and resources. Racism is a great divider and is an excellent way to distract the masses.

We’ve been in a class war for decades and the Epstein class has been winning.

I hope I didn’t come off as complaining about degoog. I’m definitely not. degoog is awesome.

Thanks for the advice about the proxies. I’ll be looking into that as I continue to work on keeping prying eyes off our internet usage. I suspect this will be a never ending struggle for the rest of my life.

It seems that both google and reddit block requests coming from my VPN provider(PIA). I may have to set up my own VPN server using Azure or AWS if things keep going this way.

Thanks for this! I included degoog in my arr stack and it works great! I was surprised by the language support when I pointed my gluetun container to an an Italian exit node. But it’s very well documented and the language environment variable was easy to set. Nice!

Getting this working within minutes of reading this post felt like opening an unexpected present. I love it.

Thanks for this. I’m definitely dropping ollama now. No wonder GGUF models always gave me issues.

I might even dump open webui for llama.cpp’s webui
