Store the secrets on a Yubikey. They are unstealable then.

Yubico has their own GUI app or you can wrappers for their CLI tool to use something like dmenu, rofi or Fuzzel to pick one.

Thanks to all for the feedback. I have a UPS installed and running now.

Confirmed this was a lie. Accidentally unplugged the device, turned it back on-- no factory reset.

“I only speak one language”… to a room full of mostly bilingual people who also live in (central or south) America. 🤦🤦🤦

Ah yes, a twisted pair.

Nice. What do you use wifi access at home? One thing the AT&T box has done well enough has been to provide wifi access throughout the house.

Yes, we went over this point multiple times, including the distinction between a reboot and a factory reset. He said the device does this to “protect itself”. Although I only care about protecting from blips, I think a small UPS may be the way to go. Though guess that means if the power is out for more than 15 minutes, my AT&T modem may still factory reset itself!

The marketing mixes metaphors, talking about gardening, growing, curating… all part of sustainable process that includes plants dying.

It also uses words like forever and permanent.

Having content live forever is at odds with metaphors of the natural world, where things naturally die.

How does it handle helm features that are not valid compose features? Silent failure or loud warning?

To explain how HAproxy and competing tools solve this:

Two servers are prepared to be the single reverse proxy, but one is active. They constantly communicate with a “heartbeat”. When the active one fails to send a heartbeat, the secondary executes the steps to become the active primary. When the primary’s heart starts beating again, it becomes active again.

So there can be a few seconds of downtime, but the failover is automatic.

Yes, especially if people use the “latest” tag, trusting whatever the container might be updated to do in the future.

I am using Navidrome and if it has significant bugs, I haven’t run into them yet.

Part of the app resides on the GitHub infrastructure, where GitHub stores, processes and displays results. So their costs are not zero.

But GitHub could take a “tax the rich” approach to pricing by charging enterprise customers more for self-hostingand leave it free for others.

A lot of open source is funded like that— most funding for a project comes from a very few companies and everything else uses it free or for very low donations or costs.

You have never had some family member experience a broken website that they needed to work but you were not around to fix it on the server side?

But companies like to make money default though.

It’s a Roman numeral…

Because less than 1% of users would use it and your trusting the security of not one bit partner but thousands of ever-changing small partners.

Also, email is already federated.

None of the Mac web devs I know are talking about it. I’m not sure they have even heard of it.

Needs a painting or a rug to really pull the room together.
