So apparently the B550 motherboard handles high pressure through the USB very poorly, which is notable when you run an audio interface via USB. I finally have figured out a solution, unfortunately not by fixing the issue on the motherboard.

This looks seriously cool

Setting up ghost in k8s and kept on getting "Starting Ghost in background" but then it would end with "An error occurred while installing Ghost" -- no additional context. After tracking down the docker image used, it uses bitnami/ghost. Following the entrypoint I figured out the issue.

Figuring out borgmatic a bit, I need something to keep my DB backed up whilst I keep faffing with the cluster :D

Just finished up the stream and it was a pretty decent one, lots of headshots... shotgun is going abysmally. But hey-ho, I was still pleased. The camo grind is slowly getting there. Next stream will be Monday at approx 9pm -> 11pm :)

🎮🔥 Jumping into Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 LIVE! Expect chaos, questionable aim, and maybe a few lucky kills. Let’s see if I can survive the madness! Tune in 👉 twitch.tv/surdaft #CODBlackOps6 #GamingLive #CallOfDuty

I have been enjoying the demo! It has its quirks, but I look forward to learning more about the arks and why everything inside the wall is the way it is.

My son and I did some lego to keep him occupied whilst I sorta worked, now it is time for some DannyGo and nap time. So pleased with how he does with lego, he is almost 4, I find it so impressive 😂

Last thing before I go to bed; @streamhatchet.bsky.social are fantastic, but expensive. I am working on a tool, basically extending a tool by github.com/damoun which will try and extract metrics and place them into prometheus, with some dashboards. It's a WIP, but I thought it would do for now.

If I can't get a @deepseek.bsky.social API key by Sunday then our good friend @faybuh.bsky.social is already dropping a chunky enough server, which I can then try and run my own Deepseek R1 on for generating these go-live messages

Just done streaming, how did we feel about the AI generated go live message? It helps me with tasks that I seem to forget myself, I plan to integrate with @deepseek.bsky.social (when I eventually get an API key), to automate messaging to bsky and discord regarding me starting my stream.

Yuck Elon, and Yuck Twitter Gold 🤮 It costs around 12K a year…. What a horrible waste of money, Instead of doing that, we are giving $1000 to a different charity each month this year. Starting with Doctors Without Borders!

I wonder if there is such a thing for Starling bank where you can; set that you owe X person £280 and want to pay back this person over 3 months, it then does the scheduling, tracking and maths for you. Creating 3 scheduled payments, with appropriate taglines showing paid vs. sum.

I absolutely love this film, my son and I watch it often! I was excited for its release, and now it is released I am glad that I was excited. "Call me, Roz"

Anybody received a new trampoline today? 😂

Nintendo has finally revealed the Nintendo Switch 2, with a full breakdown of its 2025 launch coming this April during a Nintendo Direct. bit.ly/4jkm1GD

"Based on the last game you played, what are you getting arrested for?" Using magic outside of Hogwarts, though I guess I am 28 I am above the 17y.o underage magic thing... 🤷‍♂️

I was reading about how efficient sails on large cargo ships are getting, I wonder what it would be like to combine the use of a blimp and one of these hecking efficient sails.. But hey I am not smart enough to build it, or see if it is viable 😂

@arnested.dk Hi there! I see that you are an active member of Containrrr and was wondering if it would be possible to chat about the current state of Shoutrrr? There have been no merges for a while and would like to offer my assistance in maintaining it.

When I was 6, I died for 43 seconds before being resuscitated by paramedics. An angel appeared, and told me I was destined for greatness. Today I ate a rotisserie chicken with my hands in the grocery store parking lot

I need a new phone wallpaper, I can't have my spooky pumpkin ghosts anymore

My mini PC hybrid-drive failed and I wanted to expand on the disk space anyway, so instead my buddy is selling his rack server for 80 quid. Not too shabby an upgrade, need to underclock it a little so that it pumps out less heat and uses less energy, but still will be a pretty good replacement.

We're excited for SteamOS to expand beyond Steam Deck, with the newly announced Lenovo Legion Go S - Powered by SteamOS. It's the first officially licensed device to ship with our operating system, and we're continuing to add compatibility for more devices. store.steampowered.com/news/app/593...

Has anyone tried to set up worklenz and why is it so awful to self-host? 😅

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you?

I keep mistyping aggregator as allegator today

I have an idea for a project that sits on top of the AT Protocol, but just having a bit off difficulty figuring out how I handle the _private_ aspects of it. Eg, private messages, secret tokens for some authentication aspects

I started seeing an increase in critical alerts over the christmas period, then around the 30th they just spiked way up. All linked to a specific [type] of alert, SQL Query Exporter metrics. These are all metrics based around SQL query responses; such as SQL queue size, last row ID, etc.

i have the G920 and my wife got me the shifter for christmas, but the pickle is on euro truck simulator it requires the brakes pressed fully, which is hard AF... that thing is stiff! Also it works backwards? I gotta have the clutch fully up, and gently press.. not fully down and gently release?
