We pass down the what, but as history is written by the victors the why and the how are lost to the ages. Without why, we never truly understand how. Without how, what is sure to happen without contest.

Unfortunately they think they are, good luck everyone else, we’re already mostly hosed stateside.

I was under the impression cloudflare was big enough to tell governments to fuck off, and I mistaken?

Thanks for the reply! Re direct expose: ive got a Cloudflare tunnel so I can keep my firewalls tight, I don’t directly expose anything ever, not since I made a Minecraft server directly exposed in 2018 and within hours had already had over 100 unidentified attempts at connection from who knows where.

I’ll take a look at Ghost, I don’t expect Hugo to be what they’re looking for but I’ll show them anyway.

Right now we’re looming for a place for her to mirror her Substack and start migrating her fans to her platform, rather than drive deeper into the corpoverse regarding sharing her work.

I’ve been looking at selfhosting options for my partner, an author, who wants a blog.

So far I’ve tried Haven, and I’m not sure it’s gonna be a good fit, not having a “guest account” option for non-registered users.

If anyone has a recommendation I’d super appreciate it, ideal not dealing with nginx 😅

Exactly where I am.

I moved to a backwater town in the middle of the desert for a fucking reason, worse comes to worst and I’ve got the benefit of being able to travel in literally any direction and be on res.

Just in case anyone is curious:

If you navigate to “actions” on the github, you can download nightly versions that have the fixes days before the release is done.

Twm, I’ll extend it as needed.

I think you may be parsing something wrong, or perhaps you’re ESL and something is translating weird to your native tongue. Idk friendo, it just rolls off the tongue weird and relies on a different interpretation of the phrase for each panel, it’s almost like “anti-wordplay”. You hit the nail on the head, but it’s a bent nail and it’s not gonna drive.

Hey friendo I think you accidentally a word

Detroit style pizza is bomb with some ranch but ffs don’t put it on a legit traditional pizza

If I may offer a suggestion:

OpenwebUI in a docker image, cloudflare tunnel set up to enable access outside the home, the cheapest domain name you can get.

You can selfhost your ChatGPT bot so you can keep your data to yourself!

You’ll need a decently powerful PC at home, nothing crazy, any decent gaming rig from the last 5 years should run it fine!

I had to explain that “you get what you pay for” to a disgruntled (and later banned from my store) customer years ago.

At the time I was selling eyewear for Red Eyewear Giant (now owned by Blue Eye-care Giant™) and a guy orders the absolute cheapest product for his quite strong prescription. The RX was roughly a -7 on each eye, not huge but definitely significantly thicker than average. The gentleman wanted LARGE eyewear. The man did not want to spend much.

I offered a quote for the ideal product for his vision, which is a 1.7 index lens with scratch resistant non-glare and a hydrophobic coating (well get to why thats important). The man declines and decides he wants the absolute bare minimum, cool, cr-39 plastic lenses, uncoated. No amount of education on the products would change his mind, I chalked it up to a budget thing, explained the downsides of his choice (to absolve myself of liability for the issues I knew he’d have) and allowed the oirchase to go through with confirmation he understood the issues.

Now, what we’ve just done here is gone from a very lightweight, low thermal mass product that repels water, to a HEAVY, High mass product with absolutely no water repellant properties. This is in Houston, TX - a literal swamp, and the Air conditioning capital of the US.

Man enters grocery store, man buys groceries, man leaves grocery store, man’s glasses immediately are coated in a thick fog which is dense enough that evaporation does not occur quickly (or at all honestly with that humidity) and they need to be wiped up.

That man screamed at me about how I ripped him off for over an hour.

Now, I’m not telling this story to say you’re wrong, I think this might be an “exception that proves the rule” situation. But yes, you get what you pay for, and no, it’s not always said by scummy salespeople, sometimes we just want you to have the right product the first time.

I can’t do much to help but I can certainly donate processor cycles!

I wish Fedora worked for me, something about it just doesn’t run right on my lappy and I like to have the same distro on all my machines so it’s a nogo across the board for me.

I like Fedora, it’s nice, it just absolutely won’t play nice with my macbook and I’m not gonna get a new laptop just for better Fedora support when this 14 year old hunk’o’junk still works perfectly with mint.

Rolling release/bleeding edge means security updates roll out fast.

I’ve got a blank macbook air at home waiting for a project.

I’ve never undergone a project like this without cheating by using bedrock linux as an intermediary then “Unbedrocking” my install (officially impossible, unofficially insane) with another PM as my default to convert from debian to arch years ago.

This is gonna be fun, or hellish, idk I’ll find out.

My game changer was circa 2014 when I broke something and got dropped to a basic shell and for the first time instead of panicking and immediately reinstalling I thought for a moment about what I had just done to break it, and undid the change manually. Wouldn’t you know it booted right up like normal.

The lesson here: if it broke, you probably broke it, and if you know how you broke it, you know how to fix it.

Hard agree on futo keyboard. The switch is a bit rough until it learns how you type but after it’s had a chance to learn it’s GOOD shit
