After a break from social media I'm back. Same snark, twice the F words. Still loving FOSS, retro tech, and my chickens. Now with a kid in-tow.

Please stop trying to turn everything into a #selfhosted project!

You know what a self hosted password manager is? It’s a local application. It’s not some complex 5 9s uptime service connecting life support patients to a front desk. Install #KeePass or some other password manager app and be done with it. 98% of the crap you spend a weekend building infra around can be solved with a simple local application. “Oh I need Nextcloud to edit my docs and” NO. You need a local install of LibreOffice or WPS or some other LOCAL application. This crap doesn’t need some docker crap to run.

You have files you wanna share? Fine. I could see justifying some type of NAS if you’re spendy, or just get an external hard drive to move files. But seriously how many fucking PowerPoints are you building from scratch on your phone? You’ve been lied to for the past 20 or so years of the “mobile revolution”, slowly and painstakingly gaslit by tech companies playing the slow game just to set you up for maximum profit extraction. WAKE UP PEOPLE

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

Can we uh not use the word Daddy here? #monsterdon

For a guy who studies rocks he’s having a remarkably calm reaction to flipping the cover off that alien pod.

For the record, this is what I imagine the inside of a turtle shell looks like.

Oooookay bad xerox McGuyver is clearly a pedophile… #mastodon
What porno is this?! Oh and of COURSE they had to get the camera… #monsterdon

I may be a bit bougie but I have simple desires. If I check into a Hilton property, I expect things like closing bathroom doors, working EV chargers, straight desk chairs, working phones in my room to call the front desk and complain when I don’t have these things.

But this Homewood Suites is so fucking on par for what you expect in #Decatur Illinois is painful.

What settings, configurations, and workflows do you use for every .NET app you build?

Scott Sauber talks on .NET Rocks at https://www.dotnetrocks.com/details/2004 about his list - from organizing folders by feature to logging, security, and testing!

.NET Rocks! The Open Source Maintenance Fee with Rob Mensching

Open Source Maintainers are burning out or going commercial - how do we solve this? Carl and Richard chat with Rob Mensching about his work to create the open source maintenance fee through GitHub. Rob talks about the common problem of single maintainers getting buried under issues and demands of consumers for a project. Recognizing that most people cannot contribute to the project, a maintenance fee helps support the maintainer in a low friction way for everyone involved. Check out the links to get started!

Why doesn’t every municipality, county, or other use the city.state.us or county.state.us domain? In a better world I’d also have my own self hosted email server, just like my mailbox out front, with [email protected] as my email address.
anyone at #WordFence kicking around here? Either way, I'd REALLY like to know why there are super special IPs I'm not allowed to block?
