Ah, didn’t know it worked differently for spdif, never had anything nice enough to use it.

But there is a setting to disable that? I don’t remember where I found it because I don’t remember where to find any settings, but you can definitely disable automatic shut off of audio devices.

So life loses vibrancy, but my retinas stay in slightly better shape when I’m 80? Sounds like future me problem then, definitely have no interest in trying again with a different pair after my next eye exam.

Unfortunately every eye doctor in this province (or at least not a 13 hour drive away) is associated with a chain, with I think a single exception that is referral only. So the best I can do is get an eye exam, demand my detailed results, and do my best to order glasses that fit comfortably.

Man, I wish this was always true.

Here in BC/Canada, our healthcare doesn’t cover glasses, and our 3rd party providers only cover $2-300 every 2 years for glasses.

My last job had a $500 yearly flex-spend coverage, which I used to buy $600 glasses (mainly lenses cost-wise) with all the options/coatings/transitions/blue light filter/etc from the local eye clinic, and honestly the lenses are not great, and after less than 3 years the coating is bubbling in horizontal lines across the entire lens.

Honestly though, been regretting getting glasses with the blue light filter for the past 2 years anyways, nothing feels vibrant anymore and i swear it has been negatively affecting my mood, and i have noticed zero difference in eye strain levels.

Air cooling and closed loop coolers have gotten better, and honestly no one can afford to spend $3000 to get 3° lower temps any more.

A series of unfortunate events was pretty bad for me.

My grandpa kept buying them, and i read them because I didn’t know how to not reqd a book given to me, but they definitely taught me how to say no to a gift.

Authelia has a page on cloudflare, does this help at all? Note that I use traefik as my reverse proxy and am not using any of cloudflares advanced features.

WordPress could probably do it, you don’t have to give it public access.

You can try setting up a VPN, eg headscale/tailscale with your home server being an exit node, and then just set up your questionable services on a domain that only resolves locally - and then you don’t need to use authentik for authorisation to those services.

This is what I have been trying recently, and seems to work well.

Neurolink has been used on 1 disabled person, and it was “working” for about 2 weeks before it was announced there are “problems” with the connection to the brain.

Oh, and it has killed a bunch of monkeys.
