I self host a Wordpress site that mostly acts as my design portfolio.

It’s hosted in a Debian VM on a restricted VLAN with caddy handling SSL certificates. Uptime isn’t a huge concern for me since it’s nothing mission critical. It all sits behind a free Cloudflare proxy which allows for my home IP to be hidden.

I think as far as safety goes, I’m comfortable with this setup.

I’d like to think it was a subtle middle finger to Hasbro.

All the rich kids had Gravis Ultrasound.

Nano is more like fast food. It’s easy and convenient, but it makes you feel a little guilty and dirty afterwards.

In any case, I stand by my decision to almost never buy single player games within the first year or even second year of release. I save money and the worst bugs are fixed. If I keep seeing articles about a game popping up everywhere, I become even more sceptical about whether it’s hype that’s warranted.

I think the aim for this law is to make it easier to empower employees to say ‘no’ with the risk of high fines as a deterrent. Whether it makes a difference or whether employers will simply force you to agree to contact outside of work hours via updated job contracts, is anyone’s guess.

I forgot to mention, all of the client passwords for things like web hosting and social media accounts were in a plain text Word document too. The boss didn’t think there was anything wrong with this.

Meanwhile at the place I used to work, my boss had a single hard drive holding 10 years of unencrypted client data that he expected me to use day-to-day for live tasks.

I have over 500 passwords in my password manager. I don’t know what I’d do without it.

Don’t they do this every year? They count total medals or total gold - they switch to whatever metric puts them at the top.

I have so many questions too. What sort of couch? Fabric or leather? Were people sitting on the couch at the time?

The next release of TrueNAS SCALE in October is dropping Kubernetes in favour of plain Docker/Docker Compose. That may be worth a look?

So anyway, I started blasting.

I really feel for all the techs worldwide who have to collectively deal with this mess across the millions of endpoints that now require manual intervention to fix since it can’t be reliably automated.

Sage advice.

I went through the same thing and eventually reached the conclusion that a VM really is the best method. I did get a working LXC Docker setup going, but I could just not get it to be as stable as a VM long-term.

When did you last use FreshRSS? It now supports creation of custom feeds using XPath scraping. ie. turn a website into a full RSS feed.

Plausible deniability - same with Wormhole Xtreme! ;)

That’s good to hear. Looks like something worth revisiting once it’s been tested well.

It’s been long established that they were landing pads for Goa’uld motherships.

Kree!

Horny and depressed.

Story of my life.
