Why is it always ads?

24·3 months agoYou should take notes about how you set up each app. I have a directory for each self hosted app, and I include a README.md that includes stuff like links to repos and tutorials, lists of nuances of the setup, itemized lists of things that I’d like to do with it in the future, and any shortcomings it has for my purposes. Of course I also include build scripts so I can just “make bounce” and the software starts up without me having to remember all the app-specific commands and configs.
If a tutorial gets you 95% of the way, and you manage to get the other 5% on your own, write down that info. Future you will be thankful. If not, write a section called “up next” that details where you’re running into challenges and need to make improvements.

You can run windows in docker. https://github.com/dockur/windows
11·4 months agoI wasn’t going to watch but this comment caught my attention. Those were definitely cool transitions, and the video overall was not too long and worth the watch.
FWIW I wear active noise canceling headphones when shopping and it also helps improve the experience.
I also recommend Beelink. I’ve been running an eqr6 (ryzen) for almost a year and it’s been awesome.

Maybe I’m overlooking a lot of circumstances that I haven’t encountered. Good call on the open port feature, that’s a big one that I forgot about.
Seriously. I was recently wondering why so many choose tailscale over WireGuard.
In 1999+ you could sniff people’s passwords in clear text right out of the air on public WiFi networks.
tcpdump port 110and just watch them roll in.In the late 90’s you could use a floppy disk to boot nt and dump the password hashes of anybody who had logged in, then run them through a dictionary attack which would take a matter of minutes before learning that your company’s top employees used their favorite football team or cartoon character as their password without even appending some numbers to it. Dude with the football password even had the password emblazoned in his office wall.
One time in the 90’s I got to a password prompt and just held enter, and eventually was just let past the password prompt.
In X windows if you managed to kill the screensaver password entry box you were dropped back to the desktop, and people found ways to crash the screensaver by overrunning the password input buffer by pasting input repeatedly using common keyboard shortcuts. (Pretty sure this same exact bug exited in early Mac osx versions.)
9·6 months agoBefore the cloud it was so hard to get a budget for anything, even necessary yearly upgrades. Sometimes I would have to scrap the least important server when a component in a more important one died. Then the cloud came along and suddenly we had so much money to spend! But now it was so hard to track who spent it, what projects it was spent on, and how we could dial it down. SMH. Cloud computing can be so ridiculous.
While this is correct, sometimes it can be free. I live in a cold climate, and over the winter I hooked up a folding@home computer in my office to keep things a bit warmer. Computers are 100% as efficient as a space heater.
Of course now that it’s getting warm things are changing. I’m actually in the middle of doing my last folding@home tasks until the temps drop next fall.
