I still remember years ago one time windows fucked itself and god knows why I couldn’t fix it even with USB recovery or stuff like that (long time ago, I don’t remember).

Since I couldn’t boot into recovery mode the easiest way to backup my stuff to a connected external drive was “open notepad from the command line -> use the GUI send to… command to send the files to the external drive -> wait and profit” lol.

Yep this is what I meant, thanks for saying it in a proper way :)

I am currently using Mealie with docker, which being a containers noob seemed easier to setup compared to Tandoor. I have it behind tailscale as well.

Mealie works well for what I need to do, I don’t plan in advance yet, but I just import recipes and it works 9 out 10. I will need to try the shopping list features sooner or later.

There is no mobile app that I am aware of but the webpage works perfectly on mobile with a bookmark.

I feel you, I have it permanent as well and similar story about LP. Luckily compared to other horror stories I read, mine seems relatively “low” so I am thankful for that. In my case it was a couple of hi-fi headphones and amp thanks to a shitty person who made me believe that if you don’t blast your wars you cannot feel everything a system like that has to offers.

Not at all since I got tinnitus :(

I never went too much but I enjoyed them from time to time, I tried to go only for bands I really loved and were unmissable (I still can’t forgive myself for not going to a Linkin Park concert). Not sure I would enjoy now with all the crowd, plus the rising costs. I would prefer a pub or something similar to stadiums for sure.

Merch is usually super expensive so unless I can’t find it anywhere else, not really.

Thanks! Definitely helps and I am happy to see how people are approaching the problem. It seems indeed an automated/selfhosted solution is not always the best in this case. I will also check out Kotatsu, didn’t know about that :)

Thanks! I am open to try both selfhosted and local solutions, let’s see how they work out :) Definitely going to check mihon which was recommended by someone else too, seems like a pretty easy solution (and thanks for the tips about the kindle).
