  • Could be anything.

    Something decides it’s going to fill your disk up with noise and plex enters a crash loop as it can’t write to disk any more.

    Your reverse proxy decides it’s not going to issue valid SSL certificates so all your plex clients refuse to connect.

    One day an OS update decides your network configuration wasn’t important, and your OS throws a shit fit because there’s no route to 192.168.1.100 any more







  • My gripe with wayland is how it made desktop environments less composable.

    With x11 you could sort of mix and match your DE and WM. I could have all the “it just works” everyday computing from Gnome/KDE/xfce/whatever, and the workflow-boost from a Tiling WM. In some cases, making it work was a bodge but it worked.

    Now, with Wayland, your WM is effectively your DE. It’s now a constant choice of “do I want tiling? Or do I want to print something, or be able to change my resolution, or to plug a USB stick and mount it without remembering the arcane incantations”.

    I just want to be able to print something, and have virtual workspaces per monitor. I could live without tiling.
