Fair enough, I did assume the target audience was selfhosters based on the question.
As for provider backups - well, you’d hope. But M$ doesn’t do user available backups, so I’d be surprised if that was bundled by the average SaaS provider.

And if you don’t know what database you’re running, how are you backing it up?
If you don’t know what database you’re running, are you bothering to do a full shutdown before backups? Are you doing backups at all…


Don’t worry about him, he’s just an anti-Lemmite


I thought that I was the same as you, but actually I realise I ‘tell myself’ things all the time.
Mostly it feels like I’m bullshitting myself with things I ‘know to be true’ to drown out irrational things I feel.
Do you never have irrational monkeybrain chatter? Like, “I don’t feel like I’m ever going to be good at X”; only to reassure yourself that you’ll get better as you practice? If I ever feel disheartened, I often ‘tell myself’ that I’m not special enough to be uniquely incapable of learning whatever it is.
I put ‘tell myself’ in quotes because none of this actually happens in slow full language sentences in my head. It can, but bothering to sound out the whole thought seems silly and inefficient somehow. Mostly it happens in fragmented feelings and flashes of remembered sensations.


Have you tried ErsatzTV? It’s selfhostable, pretty extensible, can be integrated into on-demand solutions like Jellyfin…


All I need is for them to fix the public collection RSS feed bug where they embed “https,http” in the feed xml if you’re behind a reverse proxy - which breaks parsing
and has integration for Oxidized, smokeping, greylog and more


Only leftists bother to separate communist and Marxist


Yes. But also, despite having done it literally thousands of times, I still can’t tell you which way round to put the target and the link name for a softlink on the first go.
My first guess is always
ln -s $NAME $TARGET
No amount of repetition will fix this.
Sounds like you have reason to bump it up the list now - two birds with one stone.
I need to do this too. I know I have stuff deployed that has plaintext secrets in .env or even the compose. I’ll never get time to audit everything. So the more I make the baseline deployment safe, the better.


Lots of this is covered in longer form, though still light detail in this video


Quite right, any country will do - that way the post is useful to more people than just me!
I’m not American, I just live somewhere where literally everything is international to me, so it doesn’t matter if it comes from Timbuktu.


This issue is described by Poe’s law.
Also, nothing electronic implements the various suggestions on irony punctuation.


I dunno about that, but there is a bit in there about burning bulls testicles to appease the lord god


That’s fair, there’s other angles of observation made available already.
Seeing as you like speculating about cyberpunk, how about if observation is just the initial way to way to sell the drone cloud? Depending on how cheap you can make them, there’s an argument to made for reducing time-to-intercept for low-speed aerial objects.
If you’ve got a bunch of drones overhead already, you could run one in to the path of a kamikaze drone, or if your swarm is even lightly armed, you can extend engagement range and reduce required accuracy with a single buckshot shell to shoot an offending drone down.
If you’re content to prioritize executive safety over public saftey, there’s a lot that can be done.
Drone displays terrify me.


Not to mention, the minute it happens, the government will carpet the skies with observation drones in the name of safety


I’m saving and planning to pay a $900 electricity bill in August.
Window units are a thing, and I recommend you get one.
Everything’s a trade off, as you already know. I still use lets encrypt, despite the fact that I know attackers watch CT logs, and they’ll know as soon as I mint a cert.
