Next week I’m upgrading my network to WIFI7 and 10Gbps to support our new 2Gbps ISP speeds. Can’t wait to set it all up.

Another physical media pickup this week for a MakeMKV rip into Plex is LOTR, both theatrical and extended editions.

My children love listening to [on their own accord] The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, Elvis, The Beach Boys etc.
I consider that a parenting win.
The extra day off today for a long weekend was a nice way to recover from all the political nonsense.

Hey @Alby a small suggestion for your new macOS hub application is allowing it to continue running in the background when you close the window (rather than closing the node).
Workaround is simply using CMD+H to hide the app works well in the mean time.
Just migrated my Alby Hub from Start9 (that was running via a VM on macOS) to the native macOS Alby Hub app and the process was flawless.
Well done @Alby, and thank you 👏🏻 🙏🏻
I’ve started noticing that ProtonVPN has started sponsoring YouTube videos.
This is great two fold;
- supporting YouTubers
- viewers being exposed to a legit VPN
Winning a crown 👑 with your kid is priceless memories made 🙏🏻 
Rumble enabling its creators to receive BTC is going to be a complete game changer.
Ok. 3rd day into holiday break.
It’s staring to feel like a holiday.
A theme park does help with this. 🎢🎡
Tis the season for many B grade Christmas “Hallmark” movies. They’re always so predictable.
I hear Master Chief is coming back to Fortnite. It may need to finally purchase some V bucks. 😏
I’ve never spent money on it.
But I’m a big Halo fan. 🤷🏻♂️
I guess I’m now self hosting my own Nostr Relay now via Tor 🧡 
Ok, @Start9 has finally added the @Alby update that I believe should fix this connection issue once and for all!
Thanks @Roland 🥳

I don’t understand why @Start9 requires you to use up 128GB of space as a minimum for its #StartOS.
I’ve got @Alby & Nostr Relay installed and running and only using 1.2% of disk space (1.43GB).
When you only have 256GB in your host, Mac Mini, that’s insane.

Hey @Start9 can you please implement @Alby's latest update to allow users to apply the update?
I’ve had the same issue arise and had to reboot StartOS again to resolve the wallet connection issue. View quoted note →
I always feel like I need to talk more online.
But I forget. Soz.
Nevertheless, I appreciate that you’re here.
