Ripping my physical media Christmas present into Plex via MakeMKV, the glorious Skywalker Saga in UHD/4K. 🎉

Nice. What are you leaning towards? Prebuilt/OEM or custom/homebrew? I went with plug and play myself, Synology.

This upgrade was totally worth it. Everything is working perfectly. More importantly, it’s very fast. 🚀 ✅ Bitcoin Node ✅ Lightning Node ✅ Relay Node ✅ Plex Server ✅ Personal Cloud Running your own everything FTW.

As an Australian Polling Council member, they’re meeting transparency and standards; they use national preference flows for standard 2PP. The hypothetical Labor vs One Nation 2PP (using Hunter flows) is clearly labelled exploratory — not their main result. Polling isn’t the be-all and end-all though, but ignoring the obvious shift would only be sticking one’s head in the sand.

Hardly a Reddit-style poll. DemosAU is a professional pollster (Australian Polling Council member), using a weighted, nationally representative online panel of over a thousand people — the same method as Newspoll, Resolve, and YouGov use. Reddit polls are open and unweighted. This one is properly sampled and reported by serious outlets. Outlier? Sure. Straw poll? No.

I’m fascinated and optimistic that One Nation has risen to the same poll level as the Liberal Party in Australia. It feels like a real shift is in the air—One Nation is poised to take the lead. #auspol

Would be cool if the Yaki client had PiP for videos so you can scroll and watch.

The moment when you suddenly pulled your lower back out and you instantly feel 30 years older than you are. 🤦🏻‍♂️ You certainly are reminded how much you take your back for granted.

Afternoon movie time. Can anyone guess what it is?

Friday late night comedy + MakeMKV ripping FTW 💿

I feel 2026 is the year I'll post more.
