Just to add - this "hat" would also likely improve reception.

This is why Debian is my server of choice, and my work desktop of choice.

OP, There are some flavors of Debian out there that are more rapid release, like LMDE, Siduction, Sparky, even Kali (though I wouldn't recommend Kali as a primary desktop personally). Some based on Sid, some based on Testing.

Dockge would be more appropriate for that.

Watchtower has different functionality, mainly keeping them up to date with images.

You want Jenkins, GH Actions, or even ansible.

That is not what the article says.

It could, but I'm in my early 40s.

I just started early with a TI-99/4A, then a 286, before building my own p133.

So the "World Wide Web!" posters were there for me in middle school.

Still old lol

Yup.

Not having money for food or a place to live prevents a whole lot of actions being taken that are appropriate and necessary.

Like anything else, it's good to know how to do it in many different ways, it may help you down the line.

In production in an oddball environment, I have a python script to ftp transfer to a black box with only ftp exposed as an option.

Another system rebuilds nightly only if code changes, publishing to a QC location. QC gives it a quick review (we are talking website here, QC is "text looks good and nothing looks weird"), clicks a button to approve, and it gets published the following night.

I've had hardware (again, black box system) where I was able to leverage git because it was the only command exposed. Aka, the command they forgot to lock down and are using to update their device. Their intent was to sneakernet a thumb drive over to it for updates, I believe in sneaker longevity and wanted to work around that.

So you should know how to navigate your way around in FTP, it's a good thing! But I'd also recommend learning about all the other ways as well, it can help in the future.

I'd even go as far as to say many of them today are just copying Jobs. He was a terrible person.

Get rid of the plastic, attach it to one of your own gloves.

Way better experience. Also really good for home grown vr in the early 90's (combined with some LCDs nabbed off camcamcorders and a VGA to s-video (or composite) converter).

i'd love to see a new powerglove. Though I think at this point an esp32 and some sensors could do all the same tricks... Hmmmm...

Ooh, missed that one - thanks!

And I appreciate your choice (considering a good number of communities I enjoy are on your instance).

Personally I think anything prod level should be manual updates only anyway.
