Hi! I’m 404oops!
Welcome to my Blog! Before we start, I’d like to mention a few things.
I’m a Programmer, Musician and a very big nerd. I’m also a chronic yapper, and I research a lot of stuff. I use a LOT of software, maintain mission critical systems, and I’m generally opinionated when it comes to how I do things. I hardly change my mind when it comes to software used.
I have lots of hardware, including:
- a PlayStation Vita, Nintendo Switch and Xbox One X regarding consoles
- a MacBook Pro (M1 Pro + 16GB RAM + 1TB internal storage)
- a NAS (Xeon E5-2680v4 + 32GB RAM + 12TB total storage)
- a 6th gen iPod Classic
- an iPad Pro (M1)
- an Audient EVO4 and a Komplete Kontrol A49 as part of my studio
and lots more I won’t mention.
You may find most of my links and projects on 404oops.com.

There’s nothing more perfect than Plex. But…
In the media streaming world there’s specific setups that go overlooked. Edge-cases, if I may. I am one of them, and there’s nothing that satisfies me more than Plex. But there’s always the “but” factor in this. Even though I’m a profound and proud Plex shill, the price change for lifetime is stupid and exorbitant.…

How to make an RCM Jig with two badges.
In november 2025 I went to Gamescon, which is a convention in Serbia that’s all about games, cosplaying, et cetera. This is relevant because I made myself 3 badges there because I won some kind of competition. I gave one to a friend, and left 2 in my bag. I didn’t think much of it,…

Parents started giving their kids dumbphones, and I’m genuinely proud
In the modern era of age verification, I’m seeing more parents expose themselves for who they are and what they let their kids do. Parenting used to be giving children toys and then watching them play or even playing with them. Then it turned into sitting in front of TVs, and then it turned into…

How to tune Samba for use on a Mac
Macs have had issues with SMB and Samba on servers that aren’t Macs. Most forums online tell you to put really insane unsafe settings that make 0 sense. Socket options with static send buffer sizes and receive buffer sizes are something that I wouldn’t recommend anyone use because your server would be more prone to…

Linus Sebastian owns a Private Jet.
So, until recently, I always knew there was something shady about LMG. Now I know it’s shitty. Linus Media Group makes mediocre videos, paired with with high-value sponsors, and has so much gear investments that it feels crazy. Companies also send hardware out to them free of charge, which they don’t need to pay for,…

(18+) I joined a Discord Server about AI Companionship. It’s that bad.
(And now I’m banned because I asked how I can have sex with an AI Model) So I was browsing X when several posts about the hashtag “#keep4o” started molesting my timeline. And then one popped up. It was someone who was telling people that they have a community as a support circle for 4o…

How to set up a remote libvirt host so you can run VMs on your Debian NAS
Oftentimes I have a little gripe with my ARM Mac – It lacks the resources to run a Virtual Machine with the apps I need it to run, which exclusively run on an x86 machine This is HORRIBLE if I want to run something like Windows or a Linux distribution – Emulation is REALLY SLOW…

How to build the CHEAPEST possible homeserver, while still remaining performant
Alright. I’ve been asked what my infrastructure runs on because it’s really fast, performant and oddly cheap This guide implies that you’ll be already exposed to old machines. If not, then may god help you. Getting the case Start by browsing Ebay, Facebook Marketplace (or similar) or your local computer recycling center. Look for something…

I hate banking.
In my last post, I wrote: Well, I recently received an old MacBook Air from 2010 with Snow Leopard on it. Yes, the version before Lion, when it still had a dedicated “Hide all the bars and shit” button on the top right. I was tasked with provisioning the latest possible software on it and…
