Yes, that’s what I get from that as well.

I guess as long as users get some options for import/export/backup then it isn’t that bad. I’m reading over the docs again and I don’t think it’s as bad as I initially read into it.

This project would benefit from some documentation curation.

Edit: which I suppose I could offer to help with to put my money where my mouth is.

Sigh…

That stupid way of explaining the license plan aside, are we again having to explain that we don’t want our data locked into yet another db format?

Be careful.

Because it only formats stdin streams to into string(s), xargs can be very dangerous, depending on the command to which the arguments are being passed.

Xargs used to be a practical way to get around bash globbing issues and parenthetical clause behavior, but most commands have alternate and safer ways of handling passed arguments.

find -exec is preferable to xargs to avoid file expansion “bombs”, plus find doesn’t involve the shell, so it doesn’t care about whitespace problems.

So I just use it by authorizing my wife a and kids to use fmd commands, which means I just tell my wife to send me a text with “fmd ring” and it will start ringing until I find and stop it.

Also, it will message my wife and kids if the phone gets below 5%

Nice article, and a fresh practical take on FOSS.

FMD is great, I use it frequently.

Let them read the documentation so I don’t have to.

Exactly why the article promotes stupidity. Why in the world would you put those words down proudly?

You do not need a VPS, proxy, or wireguard for letsencrypt.

Setting it up with zero experience with how it works or how ZFS works was quite intimidating for me.

But you got through it, and ZFS isn’t a walk in the park for most. I think you’re selling yourself short.

As someone else mentioned, leaving truenas on the asustor and using a container orchestrator or a hypervisor on the Xeon machine sounds like a good plan to me.

I fully agree.

At least the GNU copy pasta is alive and well.

The whole reason everyone moved to Discord was because it was a centralized place and since Discord needed to pay for it’s servers, it had to find a way to finance that, and enshittification naturally happened.

No! Stop perpetuating this “they have bills to pay” nonsense. Discord has more than enough money to run itself and be profitable.

The enshitification happens in services like Discord when shareholders gain control of the product.

Edit: toned down a word.

Yes.

That’s actually easier than on android, we need a caldav sync provider app.

I don’t have any specific recommendations for a discrete tool for this, but radarr and sonarr can do this automatically if you enable it.

I’ve always found the Discord ui on desktop and mobile to be really bad, just very busy and unintuitive.

WG Tunnel. It does exactly this.

When I leave my WiFi, tunnel turns on. When I rejoin my WiFi, tunnel turns off.

If this is your first recovery from a security incident:

1. Stop panicking.
2. Establish what you know and don’t know
3. Whatever data is not 100% clean, consider compromised.
4. Separate your data from your roommates and don’t worry about theirs
5. From now, assume your own network is hostile.

Delays? Jitter? What are you talking about?

Didn’t you say you have whitelist of allowed ips? Why don’t you just drop any other inbound traffic?

This is a waste of time and your router’s CPU. You already have a whitelist and know your safe TCP sources, just drop all wan traffic and only allow new input from whitelist. Your chain input rule is just creating a pretty list of bots you’re dropping anyway.
