Semi-related, but several years ago I had a good experience getting my audiobooks from audible with https://github.com/rmcrackan/Libation

It says it downloads songs from your Spotify playlist using youtube. Granted its not dling from spotify, but it is downloading the things you indicate on Spotify.
Not positivr, but the FAQ says its a delta chat client, and delta chat indicates you could host your own chatmail - so, hopefully.
Proof-of-storage based cryptocurrency. The article says when it became non-profitable, the drives were reset so their smart stats would appear new, and sold them as such.

Edit:
FWIW, site says you can check the FARM values with smartctl -l farm /dev/sda
if you do have a Seagate drive.
Honestly, not sure. What you did looks close to what I'd expect reading the airvpn doc.
-
Is port 6881 something unrelated? I think only local ports go there (e.g. your webui)
-
obviously make sure you set the forwarded port in qbittorrent, then maybe try some external tool like ipleak.net which can give you a magnet link you can put in qbittorrent to see the reported geo location. Not sure if that perfectly vets the port you intend to use, though.

glueten->gluetun in depends_on
If you attach to your docker as you launch, you might see some helpful output from either qbittorrent or gluetun (I think the "-it" flags
allows the running of a script whenever the VPN changes port (see PR https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun/pull/2399).
That's an unknown, but welcome change. My experience for protonvpn was cludgy because you effectively had to run another service to spin and update qbittorrent's port whenever it changed. Happy to see some form of baked in support for it now.
I have a palma, and I enjoy it, but don't use it as often as I should. I had intended it to be what I carry around with me more than my phone, to help restrict myself to mostly e-reader or podcasts/audiobooks. The palma 1 annoyingly would output only when the screen was on by default, so you couldn't lock it and listen to an audiobook. If you muck around in settings you can make it stay on for 1 hour after locking, so you can mostly listen to audiobooks/podcasts uninterupted ifyou turn it on briefly every so often.
But in my experience, the use of Bluetooth/playing podcasts/audiobooks pretty drastically increased battery consumption. It really brought it back to being a phone battery (e.g. 1 day) with an eink display.
So I use it almost exclusively as a small e-reader I can always have in my povket or bag, etc. I basically always listen to podcast songs my phone.
That said, it is actually pretty incredible little device, and you can watch youtube videos or even play games on it of you let its refresh rate go high
Most listed in some form elsewhere, but
- Ugrep
- ranger/lf
- tmux (splitting terminal and detatching/reattaching when I'm sshing onto server, etc)
I've also been enjoying Kate. It's a decent text editor, but the ability to Ctrl + / to pipe selected lines through any Linux command (Uniq, shuf, etc) is a bit of a superpower for an editor
I love flexibility with regex, personally I use ugrep as it also allows utilization of boolean and/or/not logic for more complicated searches.
Do you have experience with either ranger, lf, or yazi? I'm wondering how broot compares. Big fan of file ranger, and this looks very similar.
I've been self hosting for years, and am familiar with many of the topics here, but it's still an interesting read for things like talking about breaking out the three part router yourself. I'm really glad he out this together because it means I can see what others do in detail, even if it's NOT the 100% recommended way (OPNSense, wireguard, etc)
On one hand, I agree that having a small overview with links to make this non monolithic would go a long way to making this functional and less scary.
On the other hand some information is scattered fairly heavily. Take the switch discussion. He mentions a 15 dollar switch, and then the upper end 1000$ switch early on, to emphasize the range. It's not until a much much later section he talks about the more practical 20$ switch or 400$ switch he'd use here. So it being monolithic aides Ctrl+F to find this segmented info.
He also mentions the capability/value of having a manged switch (the latter switch is managed) specifically with VLAN, and yet doesn't to my mind ever state why/when I would do something with the switch management to that end. As far as I can tell, many newer switches will pass VLAN tags (even when unmanaged) from the router, which will enable you to offer a WAP with split SSIDs so you could use something like TP-link 8 port 2.5gb unmanged switch (which at 100$ seems like a meaningful bridge between the 15$ 4 port 1 GB switch, and $400 16 port 2.5gb, 8 port poe switch). He talks about PoE & speed merits but IMHO doesn't really cover the significance of a managed switch other than saying it had features for vlan (even though the cheapie would pass VLAN tags)
What does the managed switch offer me for VLAN? Specifically just the capability to isolate certain ports so specific hard lines are mapped to a certain vlan?
Our "show of strength" and willpower is not buying something on amazon for 1 day? And it's easily confirmed online, that its a 1 day stunt?
It wreaks of "I'm doing my part", or the countless internet outcries against something that goes away the next day. People will just spike buy the days before or after.
At a minimum it should be a plan for a week or two or four, where all you buy is the essentials (ie. food from the grocery or local farms ideally, pay your rent).
That said, what we've got is in motion, so join others doing the minimum on the 28th, and then just keep on.
I think to really have impact though, a national strike is necessary, but difficult with folks living paycheck to paycheck. When advertiser expenses consistently result in 0 value clicks, when businesses have to shutter their doors, when food is going bad on the shelves because folks are willing to grow their own or buy local.
