I’m just hoping it paves the way for a public release of Steam OS that I can install on my own hardware (I’m aware of Bazzite, etc.).
I’d have absolutely no reason to run Windows any longer, despite the fact my gaming PC does nothing but boot directly to Steam Big Picture mode.
Unfortunately I think Nvidia will continue to make this difficult.
Why can’t you just have a long lived internally signed cert on your archaic apps and LE at the edge on a modern proxy? It’s easy enough to have the proxy trust the internal cert and connect to your backend service that shouldn’t know the difference if there’s a proxy or not.
Or is your problem client side?

When you get a certificate from Let’s Encrypt, our servers validate that you control the domain names in that certificate using “challenges,” as defined by the ACME standard. Most of the time, this validation is handled automatically by your ACME client, but if you need to make some more complex configuration decisions, it’s useful to know more about them. If you’re unsure, go with your client’s defaults or with HTTP-01.
Have you seen this ridiculous violation (amongst many others) of the Hatch act?
I’m not from the US, but my understanding is that the democratic party only want one thing? Namely the continuation of subsidies for health care for the less fortunate (not undocumented immigrants).
Given the US is the only first world nation without Universal Health Care, that doesn’t sound like “a bunch of shit” to me.
I have smart plugs from Innr, Samsung, Aqara (I think) and have never experienced the problem you’re speaking of. Mine are all ZigBee – not sure what yours are.
That said, I just got a bunch of Shelly EM Mini G4 and put them in some PowerPoints and they work great.
If you don’t mind some basic wiring they’re easy to set up.
I consider someone being hard to replace as a problem that may or may not be their fault. If they’re actively hoarding knowledge and skills, it’s better to bite the bullet.
Personally, I try to make myself unnecessary in my roles by empowering my people. If they can’t operate without me being arbitrarily absent for a month, I’ve fucked up.
