I figured it out! I just had to disable the built in VM display and plug my monitor directly into my dedicated GPU

I seemingly got GPU passthrough working from a Linux host to a Windows VM but the one thing I needed the VM for, using Davinci Resolve, does not work. I'm getting some weird OpenGL error. Gah!

No I'm not gonna encode all my h264 footage to huge files just to edit on Linux

what in the japanese aaah packaging is this? I get that there are more cakes than one would typically eat in a single serving (unless you're a fatass like me) but this is not something to aspire to

The camera I'm looking to buy costs 10K NOK less in Japan (and even less tax free, which I qualify for) than in Norway. I can get a round trip plane ticket for less than that. Buy a lens as well and I would save money and get the experience of being there

hmmm... girl math do be girl mathing 👀

I had forgotten how bad Counter-Strike had become until I hopped into a quick deathmatch game where 90% of the players were cheaters or XP-farming bots

This guy has an ability to make the nordics (or anything, really) look way better than IRL. Not only this video but all his videos. I wonder how he can afford all that camera gear and all that travelling.

Makes me want to travel more domestically as well but I doubt my lazy ass ever will bother to

in other news I recovered from my cold last week, just before my trip but now I'm getting a cold again. I think it's more common for me to be sick when I travel than not. Just my luck I guess 🙄

gave up on http3

Decided at 1 AM that it was a good idea to enable http3 on my (nginx) web server. it was not...

- had two separate certs, one for root domain and one wildcard. had to combine them
- entering a subdomain now gives me an error saying it's invalid because it's tied to a whole different root domain
- eventually fixes itself (caching?)
- now entering a subdomain returns the content of the root domain (this site)
- internet tells me to add a listen clause to all subdomain server blocks. does not work. I make sure to remove cache and reload the server every time
- while typing a troubleshooting step I get a notification from my uptime monitor saying shit works
- it actually does but not for all subdomains
- ???
- now I just wait for it to fix itself???

I have no clue what's going on. There has to be some kind of caching although I've made sure to avoid it.

What sucks is that http3 only works on my root domain because nginx complains about duplicate listening clauses when adding it elsewhere. Moreover almost all my services are proxy redirects that use http 1 or 2 behind the scenes anyway so it was all for "nothing"?

4 hours later I can cofidently say that if your config is not broken, don't fix it. biggest waste of time of my life

Woken up by fucking Norsk Gallup. The fact that I can't opt out because it's considered "research" is ridiculous

Honestly I should just block their number. Fuck 'em!

Now I can't sleep because of them

I wish I could enable watch history for youtube music only and not youtube itself.

Ever since I turned it off last year my music recommendations have been ass. At the same time I don't want to enable it because I have a crippling youtube addiction and getting recommended videos is not helping. Although from what I've heard most of it is slop now but I'm afraid I'll fall back into watching a lot more youtube than I want to

Recommendations is the main appeal of using a streaming service over... other means of listening to music

Meanwhile this wednesday may have been the worst day I've had in a while 🙂

Despite the lack of sleep, today has been a great day. I managed to complete several errands, while also killing the dead time in between said errands by being a tourist in my own city. And to top it all off I got complimented by a stranger on my clothing

Who knew touching concrete instead of plastic keycaps could be so rewarding?

It's interesting how once I'm woken up by someone, it's almost impossible for me to fall back to sleep. Same goes for simple things like going to the bathroom

But it also really sucks when I'm actually tired and need to sleep.

Got a solid 2 hours tonight 😎

After a long period of being kind of stressed out I finally had a day where I just did nothing. Feels kinda wrong but at the same it feels kinda good.

You would think Norway is one of the countries that is bearable to live in during summer

But nope

My neighbour decided that it would be a great idea to mow the lawn at 8 AM today. He then proceeded to bring his loud ass kids out while hammering away on some stupid project

Can't even do anything about it since I need the window to be open to not die of a heat stroke

Fuck you!

Taking pictures in 16:9 / 9:16 is a sin. A sin I am unfortunately guilty of committing

Let's test text formatting
