Twice.

Jesus, if that job posting looks like the wall of text I just got slapped in the face with, I’ll be surprised if anyone applies.

I’ve been using a wildcard accept rule on my main domain, and every once in a while one of the made up addresses gets out of hand, I just go in and blackhole it on my email server. I then send a nasty email to the admin of whoever got hacked or sold the address (sending from another bullshit address), as I use unique addresses per signup and keep track of them in my password manager. It seems to have kept my inbox fairly clean since anything to those addresses goes into a side folder.

Been doing it for 20 years, seems like a good strategy so far.

These companies are putting NPUs into their processors, and nobody will ever build the software to use them because everything is done on GPUs. It’s a dog and pony show.

Are they? Well, that’s disappointing.

Except “AIDS” was the only version of Vista there ever was.

I’d report the optometrist to his licensing body.

I’ve been self-hosting email for so long (and ran/consulted on corporate email systems for a long time), I’m pretty sure my original domain (25 years) lends it’s respectability to new domains I host at the same address. The hell of it is I host on a resi IP address and have never had a single blacklist event. I don’t even know how that’s possible other than the fact that I’ve done it for so long with no incidents that I think I’m on a whitelist or something.

If you think running some curl-bash script against whatever mess someone has set up in an LXC or other one-off install is functionally the same than CIing a known distro and version and making an image that people then can use and bug report against, then I don’t see that this conversation is going anywhere.

A dockerfile has a bunch of built-in functionality that’s way easier than running scripts, and very amenable to CI. Its a standardized way of building repeatable and troubleshootable environments which is nothing you’d get in a one-off LXC, so developers love it.

I didn’t like docker for the longest time, installed everything on VMs and LXCs manually with Ansible, and when I did get looking into containers I realized how utterly wrongheaded I had been, especially when it came to deploying a solution I could trust behaves consistently.

And did you just downvote my comment because I dared disagree with you like pretty much the entire development community does? If so, that’s pathetic and weird.

You do on the P1S? I’m highly tempted to get one with the AMS, I have several printers that I’ve bought or built over the last 15 years, but even the ones I’ve bought need to be fucked with every time I go to print. The word I’ve gotten is that these are pretty much ignorable and ready to go even after a long hiatus. And an enclosed build chamber for potentially using ABS again is very interesting to me. I stopped fighting with ABS when PETG came out, but it has it’s own set of shortcomings.

Did they include a new hotend or can you get one? I look on their site and see nothing for that.

Edit: I looked under Spare Parts and they weren’t there, but I see them under Accessories. And for $13, I’d sure as hell buy one when I got the printer. Along with a bunch of other parts, they’re quite reasonably priced.

I get how momentum keeps you on a path, and he admits that he’d rather use OPNsense in the wiki, but dammit, now he’s got a bunch of other people going down the same pfSense road to the rugpull. And man, Wireguard is so much less confusing and difficult than OpenVPN, but because of the drama the pfSense weirdos made with Donnenfeld over the kernel patches for WG, there’s precious little support for WG in the pfSense environment. Wireguard is definitely more noob friendly.

And if you’re watching this because you need this level of help to selfhost, you definitely should not be hosting email yourself. Love Mailcow, used it for years, but I’m a veteran of the spam wars from way back and know how to deal with the current landscape. He is too, so he should know better.

The issue with LXC is that it doesn’t set the software up for you. You’re pretty much in the same situation as a VM or bare metal, you have to figure out how to install it or use scripts/Ansible to do it. A docker is a distribution method for the software, not the operating system. I know there’s things that you can do to ship a configured LXC, but that’s never gained traction.

So docker is far and away the easiest choice for developers looking to get their software used in a predictable manner.

I love me some opensource applications, but nothing compares to Blue Iris in the software NVR space. It isn’t as much as a halfway decent camera, and if you don’t renew it after one year, you just lose access to updates, and you can catch up if you renew before that major version goes away. I run BI on a Dockur Windows container on a Linux server, and use Deepstack in another container to supply the AI object recognition to BI, it’s much lighter weight than the included Code Project AI they ship with it.

As for cameras, you want something that specifically says they’re ONVIF capable. Everything else will be some shitty chinese spyware you have to install. And get wired cameras that have 802.11af/at specced POE. There’s a lot of trash out there that says it’s POE and it’s some bastardized thing that’s not compatible with most POE switch voltages.

Is that what we’re going to do today, Kitty? We’re going to fight?

If you’re on Plasma, rt-click the start menu and Edit Applications. Find Firefox and into the environment line add GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 and save it.

This is something I do on every new install because the GTK dialogs with their buttons at the top and every other thing wrong with them hurts me deep inside to witness.

I’ll be honest, I could probably use Gnome if I had to, with a few addons. But when I try it, the second I get to that dialog and it does that, I just shut it down and install something else. To me, it just epitomizes the contempt the developers have for the users, that it continues to exist after this long.
