First Day in the UK, tested the most casual thing I could think about. Your English Breakfast is awesome!
  • Just noticed you mentioned Tesco. I use Tesco's own brand oat milk for breakfast cereal. Confusingly, they have normal and long-life UHT oat milk. Get it from the fridge section, rather than the UHT stuff from the non-chilled shelves.

    ZRAM is insane
  • On Raspberry Pi, a larger SD card helps spread out those writes. Alternatively, get a high endurance SD card which is made to handle more writes. Log2ram helps further by journaling logs in RAM then dumps them to your SD card once a day (or at configured interval)

    Personally, I just boot my Pi from an SSD in a USB3 enclosure, with log2ram running - best of both worlds.

    ZRAM is insane
  • Thanks wolf@lemmy.zip !

    Thanks to your post and plenty of config tutorials, I've got this set up on my Oracle Free Tier VPS running Ubuntu. It has recently been struggling hard with 1GB ram, requiring reboot. The difference with zram enabled... WOW.

    I haven't been able to get zram working on my Ubuntu VPS with another provider though - search results suggest that some providers don't allow swap.

    Is CloudFlared Tunnel good enough to self host Immich?
  • In my experienc, using cloudflare tunnel, I don't even open 80/443. That's the beauty of the tunnel - no open ports (except 22 for ssh).

    Trackers blocking without (total) ads blocking
  • In Firefox, install the uBlock Origin extension. Go into ublock settings, disable ad blocking filterlists, enable tracking filterlists. Personally, I'm blocking ads too as they're sometimes abused as malware vectors.

    Or if you only want ads that aren't interfering, there's Adblock Plus with its acceptable ads programme. Can't vouch for whether that's a good or bad thing.

  • I'd redefine "woke" as "I'm going to blame this all on you, but really it's me. Your issue doesn't affect me directly, but I don't like it and I can't explain why, I can't even explain it to myself. But I don't want to discuss it or understand you. I just want to shut down this conversation because it might expose my lack of thinking past my own nose and empathy, because ughhhhh empathy."

    Recommend Android app for calling landlines
  • Get a local SIM or eSIM when you arrive. If you're dealing with insurance, you might want to be able to receive calls too. Regarding privacy: good luck.

    Android Ad Blocker
  • Because the family premium tier gets you and designated family ad free YouTube when using Chromecast, and YouTube Music. Worth it for me. We're all cheapskates here, just some of us are less cheap!
