  • The only one who is winning here is the Chinese government.

  • Exactly. With directly using certbot handling all and everything fully automatically I ran my old setup with a free dyndns subdomain for quite some time without any issues.

    Since Let’s encrypt nowadays is basically implemented in every reverse proxy: certificates are an absolute no-brainer.

    If someone manages to buy and configure a domain to serve selfhosted content, this person will also be able to either set up certbot or use the built-in functionality of their reverse proxy.

  • It's 2025. Not having "real certificates" is something admins intentionally do. Since there is Let's Encrypt available, all other solutions for non-paid certificates are obsolete.

  • 5 gallons is circa 19 liters. So when the liquid is water, then you don't need to use the 100 ml container. 1 liter of water weights 1 kilogram, so put the 5 gallons bucket on a scale and pur in 19 kilograms of water.

  • 100 ml is pretty easy to use. You can multiply it or divide it evenly without having to think at all.

  • Honestly? I want my terminal emulator to leave me alone as much as possible. Set font, set colors, done. Everything else should be handled by the shell and terminal applications I'm using.

  • Not at all, no. The US government is and always was extremely nationalistic (not nationalist, not national socialist, those are different things) and by being that, there were and are groups that do whatever they need to do to achieve their goals (i.e. "not the goals of the opposite party"). Let it be assassination, bribery, or downright capitalism.

    I would actually be extremely surprised if the republicans are not somehow involved in killing a democratic president. (I wouldn't be surprised if it was the other way round, too.)

  • Keep them memorized. The old tools just work, even if MICROS~1 tries to hide them and replace them with useless crap apps.

  • There – of course – won’t be a singular official source stating β€œHey guys, we’re open core now”. You need to put this together bit-by-bit.

    Here are some links for research

    • Official statement on the takeover
    • Gitea Enterprise/Gitea Cloud hiding features behind a cloud solution and a paywall which makes Gitea itself open-core
    • Open Letter to the new Gitea owners with a summary and a reply, signed by a lot of Gitea devs and FOSS scene people.
    • As @gratux@lemmy.blahaj.zone mentioned: A fork under the name Forgejo was done due to new Gitea owners did not care much about the concerns. (Started as asoft-fork but with 10.0 it became a hard fork.)
    • Gitea owners made it mandaroy to remove copyright headers and set the corporation as copyright holder. Here, here, and here
  • It falls under self hosted, at least. If it is still truly open source is highly debatable.

  • Never heard of 99% in that list.

    Also, Gitea should not be there. It is a corporate -owned open core project that was hostilely taken away from the community.

  • And then there are people outside the USA not even knowing if it's the 11th of May or the 5th of November.

  • Dillo is 25 years old

    Yeah, I can tell from the look and features. scnr

    What's the use case for that browser? Daily-driving it to browse the web likely not, right?

  • If you're lucky they have an Atom or RSS feed somewehere. (Even if it just may be one from their back-end so they can show the articles on their news page). You could then put that in an RSS reader of your choice.

    If you have some scripting experience you could check out Newsboat. You can use a script as source there, and that script then scrapes the their website and generates an Atom feed from raw HTML parsing.

  • Wasn’t it that even their spools are vendor lock-in since the beginning?

    I like how fast and seemingly reliable those printers work, but I never considered buying one.

  • Exactly. Your KVM switch need to support it, or your clients will always act like you unplugged the screen when you switch between them.

  • I don't trust them with that. They have an extremely limited free tier that indirectly "forces" users to upgrade to one of the paid tiers. The one that is least limited and reasonably priced is "Proton Unlimited" for ten bucks a month to be paid annually. Plus: you cannot even use a mail client of your choice without installing an extra application for that.

    You could easily selfhosting the cloud stuff. If you don't want to selfhost a mail server you could use one from a mail provider. Don't know how it's done internationally, but here in Germany are quite a few companies that provide you with either a domain forwarding service for your selfhosted stuff, or a good and cheap mail server solution for a fraction of what Proton wants to have, and I highly doubt they need ca. $120 a year per user to offer a handful of mail aliasev and allowing you to create folders in your mailbox.

    And you're not even arbitrarily limited - and your data never leaves your private environment.

  • There are 2 kinds of companies:

    1. Evil companies
    2. Companies that are not evil YET. Comanies that were not caught yet.

    FTFY.
