Been running a synology NAS for a couple years without issue. It handles backups, Jellyfin, and a bunch of otharr things without issue. Not tried anything else, but I’d happy recommend Synology

That was surprisingly easy to set my handle to my domain name. I’m now @sam.beckham.io on here and sam.beckham.io on the web. A lovely bit of consistency.

Netflix search for, “horror films” results are: Split, His House, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Kill Bill, Chicken Run, Cunk on Earth, Night Swim, and It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Why do Netflix keep making UX decisions like this. I want to watch a horror film. There’s no easily accessible genres and searching, “horror films” generates this. Four actual horror movies, an action film, a kids film, and to TV comedies.

Couldn’t agree more.

Is this wrapped bespoke or can I plug my username in?

a man in a suit and tie is making a funny face with his eyes closed Alt: Mr Bean falling asleep on a rollercoaster

I moved house, changed teams at work, and had a bunch of personal changes. All with a 1 year old that refuses to sleep.

This is me, trying to stay awake on said rollercoaster 😴🎢

Eventually. Mastodon never clicked with me and it looks like a lot of the old Twitter crowd are on here. We’ll see how long this one lasts 😅

Any tips, or is this largely the same as Twitter?

Disagree. You’re the reason I’m here. Just took me two months and a reminder this place existed to get me here. There’s a bunch of old Twitter folks on here. Though no one posts as much.

Coffee chat for sure. Get it in the calendar.

Obligatory post about starting a Twitter following from scratch again.

Who’s good to follow in 2025?
