<p>Wow, this sounds familiar. The quality of work that can be done at home is often not realistic at work... and vice versa. I've learned to separate work and play pretty well and have enjoyed both worlds.<p>The next step is keeping the homelab at arm's length from stuff you actually depend on. My pfsense router Just Works with tons of cool stuff on it but if I get the itch to push it a bit further... walk away and make a VM in the shed!</p>

<p>I have rarely been in a group chat that suffers the same problem as I see on all the other social networks (Google+ and its "Circles" seemed promising while it lasted...) but it could be because leaving a single chat is easier than leaving an entire network and the group is well-defined. Federation is good but it's not enough on its own. If I think back far enough I do remember email chain letters with people forwarding <i>everything</i> to everyone on in their Eudora addressbook:<p>> Now for 180. Forward stupid chain letters to as many people as you can.
> Remember: Be annoying whenever possible<p><a href="https://patorjk.com/misc/chainletters/179waystoannoypeople.htm" rel="nofollow">https://patorjk.com/misc/chainletters/179waystoannoypeople.h...</a><p>---<p>It seems to me that if a given social media network is not an effective way for you to connect with someone then try something else. Expecting one platform to handle all out social connections is unreasonable. Some people live on Discord and others prefer a phone call etc. A world with everyone on IRC would be convenient but probably also a nightmare once someone figured out how to make money off with it.</p>

<p>I only used Cursor in short bursts so 20 USD per month was hard to justify. I recently switched to VSCodium + Cline + OpenRouter and I can use any model I want (currently Step 3.5 Flash for "Temu Sonnet"). It scratches the itch very well for me for literal pennies on the dollar.<p>I should also add: Cline doesn't require any account at all. I just installed the extension and added my OpenRouter API key and that was it.</p>

<p>One example: when learning Proxmox itself. I was able to set up a multi-node cluster with more complicated networking than I was normally comfortable with and experiment with failures of all sorts (killing a node, disabling NICs, etc.) without needing more hardware or affecting my existing things.<p>Outside of learning and testing I am not sure of what uses there might be but I'm curious to know if there are.</p>

<p>It is an infringement on one's right to control the reproduction and distribution of their intellectual property.<p>This right is enforced by the authority that grants it. Viewing, listening, or otherwise 'consuming' this IP is not and cannot be an infringement on these rights. Those who <i>provide</i> are responsible.<p>If a country does not grant or enforce this right (or on behalf of others) then there is no infringment possible in that jurisdiction. cf. China or Russia.<p>Moral arguments beyond that are your own and should be clearly segregated from the law. Murder is, almost universally, both criminal <i>and</i> wrong. "Piracy" requires more attention to detail in order to have productive conversations.</p>

<p>I was originally going to reply with "Try moving a couch with eye blinks and hand signals" and then decided against it. Pilots have enough to do with their hands and feet as it is and looking for and mashing a "I accept the terms and conditions of the landing clearance" button is not really in line with the task at hand.</p>

<p>> That ATC still takes place over radio just seems insane at this point.<p>Voice communication is insane? I suspect you are ignorant of what it is like to actually fly a large aircraft into a busy airport. Fault-tolerant and highly available hardware must facilitate low-latency, single-threaded communication with high semantic density in order to achieve multi-dimensional consensus in a safety-critical, heterogeneous, adversarial environment.<p>There is some interesting research that captures this sentiment and shows how <i>complex</i> a solution might need to be (replace "faulty agent" with "human error"): <a href="https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0005109822003910" rel="nofollow">https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S00051...</a></p>

<p>If all you need is basic splits, sessions, and some simple templates/layouts (and like the convenience of knowing that tmux is widely available, and often installed by default) then you're fine to stay on tmux.<p>Zellij can do things like floating windows, contextual keybinding guidance (helps learn everything that can be done), and a more complex layout schema. You can disable all the UI eye-candy and switch to tmux-style bindings too.<p>It's worth trying out. I use both so that I can still function on systems without it.</p>

<p>> Is there anything FreeBSD can do that, say, Debian cannot?<p>If you asked the opposite (what can Debian do that FreeBSD cannot) I would have more to say and it would mostly be preceded by "I know FreeBSD is not Linux but ...". Whenever I need to do any sort of maintenance or inspection I have to look up the equivalent commands for things like `lsblk` and something nested in `/usr/etc/...` when I'm used to finding it in `/etc/` over every other system.<p>This is a consequence of both FreeBSD's reliability in needing very infrequent attention and my limited use-cases to use it. As a NAS it is great but I can't touch it without full-text search of all my notes on the side! Either way, no regrets about learning and relying on it after ~18 months so far.</p>
