Jesus christ. Cant even post it to reddit and it feels wrong. But jesus christ. It was like gods library of content in there. great service, high quality, little to no scummy ads. I remember it from day one. Fucking christ.
My guess is that it didn’t. I wonder if all of the subreddits going dark left the front page and r/all open to god knows what from more unsavory subs, and when Reddit realized that it was happening, pulled the plug until they were able to filter out anything less-than-corporate-allowable on the front page.
I don’t use Brave anymore but god, I remember really loving that bottom search bar layout (with the search icon rather than the whole bar). It was probably one of the hardest things for me to get used to not having when I switched to Firefox.
I run a restic backup to a local backup server that syncs most of the data (except the movie collection because it’s too big). I also keep compressed config/db backups on the live server.
I eventually want to add a cloud platform to the mix, but for now this setup works fine
In the process of moving stuff over to Backblaze. Home PCs, few clients PCs, client websites all pointing at it now, happy with the service and price. Two unraid instances push the most important data to an azure storage a/c - but imagine i'll move that to BB soon as well.
Docker backups are similar to post above, tarball the whole thing weekly as a get out of jail card - this is not ideal but works for now until i can give it some more attention.
*i have no link to BB other than being a customer who wanted to reduce reliance on scripts and move stuff out of azure for cost reasons.
Funny enough I already made a few changes to the traefik configs, I saw someone else’s post and if it’s safe to assume that any request with Accept header starting with application/ should be routed to the Lemmy server, the following would work as well:
Make navigation & reading work without javascript.
Make dark mode available when not logged in.
Indicate which comments are new when returning to a recently-visited post. (old.reddit.com does this if you have premium.)
Display user and community names with the domain part dimmed (and maybe on a separate line), for less visual clutter at a quick glance.
Display user names without prepending an @ sign, for the same reason.
Allow sorting community lists by name.
Horizontally align all community names in lists, regardless of whether they have icons.
Reduce wasted screen space.
When reading a post/comment on any random instance (perhaps found via web search) make subscribing & finding that post on the user’s home instance a one-click operation, so they can reply.
Optionally hide avatars & community icons.
Optionally (admin choice) mirror remote instances’ images, so they can’t be abused by remote parties to track local users.
Optionally (user choice) disable or replace remote images, for the same reason.
Stop auto-inserting new items into a list that’s being viewed. (It causes what I’m reading to suddenly shift or disappear off-screen, which is disorienting.)
Make buttons work reliably. (Clicking them sometimes applies a border without doing anything else.)
I like Metal Gear Solid a lot. Metal Gear Solid 2 was okay but the bait and switch from Solid Snake to Raiden was just aggravating and the plot started getting more crazy than I cared for. By the time Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater came out I was just done. I know I’m in the minority here but it just isn’t for me. The first Metal Gear Solid for the PS1 was about the right balance of game play and funky off the wall story for me.
Hideo Kojima needs someone to tell him when enough is enough.
That is cool. This is the solution I was hoping existed, but someone brought to my attention the need for 100% uptime, an by inference the lack of redundancy on a home solution, so I need to reconsider what I am will to do.
I have a friend in a neighboring state that I visit regularly - we’re setting up disparate SANs, one at his location, the other at mine. We each get half the storage space; we back up to the half onsite and overnight the onsite SAN data gets backed up to the offsite. This has nothing to do with mail, but if you can host a mail server on something as inexpensive as a pi then you could have one at multiple locations for redundancy purposes.
EDIT: I just realized I typed SAN instead of NAS. It’s NAS, I just don’t deal with NAS’s all day at work so I always write that by default.
There’s a non-profit organisation called ICANN at the top who basically controls everything and assigns TLD (top level domains like .com) and so on to registries.
Registries host different TLDs and keep track of all domains under them.
Registrar is an ICANN accredited company that can sell domain names. When you buy abcd.net from say Google domains, Google basically files your domain name with the .net registery.
As far as I know, you can’t buy a domain from ICANN directly because they don’t sell stuff? Only registrars can.
In practice there are registrars that charge you the actual price of the domain + a small registration fee (15 cents maybe) in a transparent way without any markup. An example is cloudflare.
Also in practice stay away from GoDaddy. They’re one of the most horrible companies I know. Porkbun, cloudflare, namecheap, namesilo, Google are all usually moderately priced good options. You can find details of all registrars for a tld and their prices using tld-list like: tld-list.com/tld/nameoftld.
