  • I taught my users markdown with StackEdit, a side-by-side WYSIWYG / Markdown generator. It opened some doors for us in terms of the tech we could use behind the scenes.

  • There are a few reasons this might be the case!

    1. The instance's UI might not be declaring that a or button element as a resource meant to be downloaded.
    2. The instance's web server might not have declared the downloadable file's mime type as a resource. (Apache, nginx.)
    3. Your operating system might not recognize the file type as a thing to be downloaded, or your browser isn't telling it to download to a file.

    It's probably 1 or 2 if you're seeing the same behavior across multiple browsers and OS.

  • Yes, in my experience, boilerplate typically comes into play when you're using two libraries that don't know about one another, or have no business touching each other's concerns. (Using Alpine's x-cloak with Tailwind comes to mind.)

    That and every single *-pipelines.yaml CI/CD config I've ever written.

  • I keep my framework-specific reusable code in git repos that I install as git submodules in the repos of actual projects.

  • Not a fan of kitbashing, huh?

    • Ambassador-class (USS Enterprise C)
    • Galaxy-class (USS ... Yamato)
    • Kelvin-type (USS Kelvin)
    • Constellation-class (USS Stargazer)
    • Somerville-class (USS Somerville)
  • You don't even need to do that, we figured out sourcemaps an eternity ago.

  • Hey, just to make sure -- are you performing image optimizations on uploaded images? You're not uploading 4000x3000 raw JPEGs, are you?

    If you are, you can reclaim a ton of storage. (Keep the RAWs off the Internet on a HDD somewhere.)

  • I also made this stupid mistake. Thanks for posting the solve.

  • That's solid advice. If your Minecraft plan is for personal or small group use, Fabric is probably the better call.

  • Ragged arrays was also why I chose Unraid. They initially didn't have docker-compose support, you had to jam it in the boot script! Now, they have that very nice Docker management dashboard that I completely bypass because I prefer the CLI.

  • Unraid is a wonderful OS that will let you explore the world of containerized applications and however many VMs you feel like configuring. Spin up and spin down whatever as you please. Terraria. Valheim. Starbound. CounterStrike.

    First thing, though: you're going to want your whole goddamn network hooked through that thing. Run CAT 6. Do it right. Buy a Uninterruptible Power Supply that can keep that server humming through the first 10 minutes of a blackout (to gracefully shut down).

    Time to look at things like Tailscale, Pihole, Plex. If you're going to run Minecraft then Google "Paper MC". You can replace Google Docs with nextcloud. Play D&D? It's Foundry time. Roll your own Lemmy. Roll your own Mastodon. (Back up your volumes.) Host your own website. Host other people's websites. (Back up your volumes elsewhere.)

    All the people in the selfhosting and homelab communities will tell you what to do with that beef.
