It's generally safe, but doesn't mean it's bulletproof as sites has been removed from the megathread in the past when they suddenly serve malwares or miners. Just use your common sense when downloading apps and games and scan them before installing.

Pirated apps are one of the top source for botnet operators to infect new machines and add them to their network. Try not to run any pirated app or game if you can, but if you can't avoid it, get it from trusted sources (e.g. directly from the cracker's homepage), not from random sources like TPB where anyone can upload anything.

I think you can send a SIGUSR1 signal to mumble process to tell it to reload the ssl certificate without actually restarting mumble's process. You can use docker kill --signal="SIGUSR1" <container name or id>, but then you still need to give your user access to docker group. Maybe you can setup a monthly cron on root user to run that command every months?

Why would they do that when coffee trees literally grow where the chivets live? They can just pick the berries themselves instead of waiting for the chivets to shit.

But why? Is administrators forcing their company's laptop to use certain browser actually a significant problem before?

I haven't actually tried it though so I'm not sure how it compares with rsync.net. How easy it is to access snapshots on hetzner? On rsync.net, snapshots are stored under .zfs folder so it's very easy to access.

There is a certain thrill when you nuke your disk to install a distro you never tried before. I actually just nuke one of my laptop last night to try void linux.

Stop threatening me with a good time!

Note that rsync.net includes free 7 days daily snapshot. Also, the main advantage over backblaze b2 for me is you can just sync a whole folder full of small files instead of compressing them into an archive first prior to uploading to a b2 bucket. This means you can access individual files later without the need to download the whole archive.

I still use b2 to store long term backup archives though.

It's really easy, just install steam or lutris. However, some games might have their own specific issues when running under proton/wine under specific hardware configuration. If this is what happened to you, I'm afraid there might not be an easy way outside of putting some elbow grease to start tinkering with the config, or ask for help in linux gaming community.

Aye. Docker on linux doesn't involve any virtualization layer. What should the direct the installation setup be called? Custom setup?

I'm currently using nextcloud:26-apache from here because some nextcloud apps I use is not compatible with v27 and v28 yet. The apache version is actually less hassle to use because nextcloud can generate .htaccess configuration dynamically by itself, unlike php-fpm version where you have to maintain your own nginx configuration. The php-fpm version is supposedly faster and scale better though, but chance that you won't see that benefits unless your server handles a large amount of traffics.

People usually come here looking for advice on how to replace their dockerized nextcloud setup with a bare-metal setup. Now you came along presenting a solution to do the reverse! Bravo!

What do you guys think about putting the different components (webserver, php, redis, etc.) in separate containers like this, as compared to all in one?

I actually has a similar setup, but with nextcloud apache container instead of php-fpm, and in rke2 instead of docker compose.

I think the primary motivation for this change is to keep bluetooth active on significant portion of android users so google's upcoming "find my" network can take off. They don't want people to permanently turn off bluetooth from the drawer because there is a chance that they forgot about it and won't turn it on again, which is bad for their upcoming network. Adding popups to inform the users will increase the chance of users deciding to permanently deactivating bluetooth.

There are self-hosted runtime such as workerd that allows you to run your own stateless lambda-like platform. It's kinda losing steam these days though, and everyone seems to be pushing self-hosted kubernetes as the best way to get off the cloud these days.

You still have internet subscription, right? Next: run your own ISP

Why can't we discuss some topics without resorting to personal attack? If you disagree with something, you can always refute it without being a dick.

When WW2 broke, many colonial countries take advantage of the confusion to free themselves from their colonial oppressors and declared independence. If WW2 didn't happen, those countries perhaps would gain their independence much later.

These days there are many solutions to deploy kubernetes on a fleet of bare-metal servers, so if you use kubernetes, the option to take everything in house again is available. Distributed storage are the toughest one to setup in house but there are many mature solutions that integrate with kubernetes well these days.

The IT managers got tired of being blamed for all server outages and want to shift some of those responsibilities. Now when there's an outage, they can say "it's not us, it's AWS because they suspend our account for non-payment".
