Did you consider other options besides Authentik and what do you like about it?

And: Fish implements aliases as scripts! When you use alias —save, fish creates as script with a function in it.

To your list add that new Tesla sales are also competing against an increasing number of Tesla owners who now want to divest themselves of the brand.

More used Teslas on the market will only push down the market rates and thus profits of new Teslas even further.

You could self-host Lemmy and use RSS to Lemmy services to post to your personal communities.

The opposite of VPS is more like “home lab”.

Managing a VPS yourself still counts as self-hosting.

Qutebrowser is small in market share but not in resource use.

I was scared to move the cloud for this reason. I was used to running to the server room and the KVM if things went south. If that was frozen, usually unplugging the server physically from the switch would get it calm down.

Now Amazon supports a direct console interface like KVM and you can virtually unplug virtual servers from their virtual servers too.

I started to DBAN (wipe) my internal drive once instead of an attached drive. That was the last time I ran DBAN on a machine with any drives of value plugged in.

Yes. I used to use Knoppix. It was cutting edge for the time. Similar in concept to immutable distros today that allow you have some mutable data storage.

I had a friend who was an old country doctor who lost his everyday-carry tracheotomy knife that way.

For that matter, Xorg didn’t handle this either, DEs or WMs did.

That’s not a Wayland issue, that’s a compositor issue. Sway for example allows mapping apps to workspaces.

The requirements asked for a web UI. You are right though, except for that, other kind of shared folder solutions might work.

Wordpress has become an all-purpose CMS known security vulnerabilities via unsafe plugins.

Ghost has APIs instead of plugins for nearly everything, so it eliminated a lot of security and maintenance headache that way.

Ghost focuses on just a few features centered around independent content creators: blogging, email newsletters and subscriptions.

So features for sending bulk emails and accepting payments are built in, but you won’t find native support for other things like podcasts or recipe markup.

Ghost meets my need, and I love not dealing with 30 plugins at risk of being exploited if I don’t upgrade them promptly.

Exactly. It's not just downtime to worry about, either. It's disks filling up. It's hardware failure. It's DNS outages. It's random DDoS attacks. It's automated scans of the internet targeting WordPress. It's OS, php and database upgrades. It's setting up graphing, monitoring, alerting and being on-call 24/7 to deal with the issues that come up.

If these businesses are at all serious, pay for professional hosting and spend your time running the business.

I agree the question here is not so much which distro but which browser.

Todays low-end laptops often come with 8 GB of RAM. Even common phones have more than 2 GB of RAM.

Until it gets a security audit, I’ll stick with Signal.

My town’s subreddit just started a policy to disallow links to X for similar reasons.

There is a movement to avoid the platform.

As many as they want to.

Spent hours tracking down a test failure process and introduced a new bug in the process.
