While I mostly agree with you (and 100% on it distracting from the article), I think you’re not thinking about image rights.

If you’re a serious blogger with a good sized blog, a lawsuit or DMCA or otherwise is potentially a killer outcome of using an image you don’t 100% sure have the rights to. With AI, you can be 100% sure you can use the image however you want, without any repercussions. I’d imagine that’s huge in the considerations for a blogger.

Is this someone’s Minecraft furnace stack?

If you’re behind a CG NAT (carrier grade NAT), you’ll be doubly in trouble as it will be essentially impossible to get a forwarded port since your “IP” is essentially a LAN address within your ISP’s CG NAT, if that makes sense.

Hey it’s a group chat with my grandma ಠ_ಠ

Nice! Just shared this (as a PDF without the domain name lol) with my family!

I’m in this picture and I don’t like it.

This is 110% my wife though lol

I mean literally… example.com**/**index.html

I’m an idiot and never linked the link

1. I got started with a guide from these guys back in 2020. I still use traefik as my reverse proxy and Authelia for authentication and it has worked great all this time. As someone else said, everything is in containers on the one host and it is super easy this way. It all runs on a single box using containers for separation. I should probably look into a secondary server as a live backup, but that’s a lot of work / expense. I have a Cloudflare dynamic DNS container running for that.
2. I would definitely advocate for owning your own domain, for the added use case of owning your own email addresses. I can now switch email providers and don’t have to worry about losing anything. This would also lean towards a more memorable domain, or at least a second domain that is memorable. Stay away from the country TLDs or “cute” generic TLDs and stay with a tried and true .com or .net (which may take some searching).
3. I don’t bother with this, I just run my server behind Cloudflare, and let them protect my server. Some might disagree, but it’s easy for me and I like that.
4. Containers, containers, containers! Probably Docker since it’s easy, but Podman if you really want to get fancy / extra secure. Also, make sure you have a git repo for your compose files, and a solid backup strategy from the start (so much easier than going back and doing it later). I use Backblaze for my backups and it’s $2/month for some peace of mind.
5. Do it!!!

OMAD?

Not sure if it’s directly related, but I donate to the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF). They’re quite active in the technology space and I feel that they also carry the FOSS ethos.

Work is going to start providing lunch for all employees every working day, so I expect I’m gonna have to have a resolution to actively hit the gym more than I do now. I’ve always been a bit stingy with my portions for lunch which helps me to keep thinner, but if work has a nice hot lunch every day I am going to have to work harder.

ZzzzzzzZZZAPPP

Scenario 5: put it all in one big long docker-compose.yml and cross your fingers that docker isolation does its job.

E: definitely not what I do, no siree

I mean, my wealth has more than doubled over the past decade. The stock market has been going absolutely bananas, and my retirement accounts have done well.

Illinois at least passed a law to limit the consent given when using a digital ID with a police officer such that they’re ONLY allowed to use it for ID and not snooping, but that’s the only state to do so.

The Cmd + Space combo on MacOS was a game changer. Finds EVERYTHING on the computer.

Proper, built-in, functional sleep and hibernation

I don’t have an answer for this, but I wonder if something for this could be set up with a docker container. I know LinuxServer.io has a really good image system where you can run a container with “mods”. For example, you might be able to run their base Ubuntu / Fedora / Alpine image and then customizing it to run your script as a service / cron job / systemd service.
