Sorry but the UK position is definitely wrong. Our kids get 6 weeks off just in summer, plus 2 each at Xmas and Easter, plus 3 x 1 week during half-terms. It is a challenge to cover these when working full time where the average holiday allowance is 5.6 weeks in total.

Nice idea but very poor execution

This has blown my mind, I love it. I never thought there would be differences between countries but it makes sense given we don’t even agree on what sound they make

Oh man, I had no idea. I really appreciate you letting me know

I haven’t got it yet so not sure but good point I’ll need to check! He can handle the switch without removing the sticks. Is it even bigger than that?

I really struggled with readarr but maybe because I never used a private tracker as others have mentioned. I’ll give that a try

I had a lot more luck with https://github.com/evan-buss/openbooks but it’s completely manual. I make a note of books I come across and then every few weeks manually search on here and add the downloads to a calibre monitored folder.

One option is to get an IPTV service and use it with an app where you can record the shows on disk (like TiVo I think you guys use, heard that a lot on older TV shows lol). Will only record future shows but tbh, a lot gets repeated on their other channels (https://www.channel4.com/tv-guide).

Using a VPN is another option but I recently couldnt load the app while using a lesser known VPN from within the UK so they seem hot on blocking them.

Another option is rent a cheap VPS from in the UK to act as your own VPN.

All of their shows is on their app, and they have a pretty cheap ad free option if you can figure that out too.

Yeah it sounds like Androids aggressive battery helper is causing this.

Is there any benefit to browsing private mode? Its only stopping history on your phone and not websites, so you can just set normal mode to not save history, cookies etc. Private mode is designed to be temporary in stopping your phone recording history and one button to close them all, so its not surprising that it doesn’t save tabs, in fact its a feature

You are amazing, thank you so much! It all worked apart from the last one, which said it needs an output file specified so added -o after a quick search. I really appreciate the quick response to, I got in very quickly but only just managed to respond here.

Nextcloud aio on docker is pretty easy. You just need to setup the reverse proxy really (i think on port 11000 if i remember correctly). It does come with apache so you could open it directly in your router but guessing you might have other services.

If you are a student with certain schools you can get it for free. I’m doing a part time course at a UK university and they gave it for free, I just had to register using my university email address. I’ve not taken it up as want to avoid it in favour of libreoffice but will use for coursework on a VM if I really need to.

Guess they try to suck people in so they pay in the future

Do you physically have access to the router? If so, I would figure out the settings it uses that other people notice (wifi settings etc) and just hard reset it. Chances are they just use the basic settings provided anyway.

Is anybody else using the router or just you? If just you, I’d just do what you want to it and reset it when you leave.

What’s the problem with Kia’s? I’ve completely missed this

Before you go too far into it and spend lots of time, I think most VPS services let you installed a new OS on their admin site so you can start again from scratch. If you’re not sure that is the right linux flavour, go for something else more mainstream so you can find lots of support online. Looking at the OS, I’m sure it might be good but I’m also sure you can install all the features very easily yourself, especially if it’s just using docker mainly.

I second UFW. I found this guide useful: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/ufw-essentials-common-firewall-rules-and-commands. You might want to try tailscale as others use it for easily setting up vpn access but not used it myself. Also go for fail2ban or, for more assurance but harder work, try crowdsec too.

You could also use cloudflare dns and add IP and/or country restrictions to block all traffic before it gets to your VPS. I have a country filter and it’s crazy how many bots get blocked from all over!

I don’t use the docker labels feature so it doesn’t really matter to me but can see why you would want this to be implemented if you did. Hopefully they can figure it out.

I have a “local” version with every prod service on. It’s only accessible on my home network with a pihole dns resolver. I just add the services manually to the services.yaml file, which doesn’t take long at all. I then have a “remote” version which is a much smaller with only services accessible outside my home network and is behind nginx/authentication software/cloudflare. Again, it doesn’t take long to add services really. Two different docker compose files, volumes with the settings, and ports makes it work fine for me. I guess depends how often you’re adding services.

I have two homepages, one for local and the other for remote (behind nginx and my authentication software). I also have one on a vm i use for testing before deployment. They are different docker containers but don’t see why you couldn’t have separate ones given they are just websites.
