You like deploying infrastructure, probably in a cloud environment, but you don’t want to push a bunch of buttons in their web interface, so you use Terraform to declaratively define the things you want, and it goes and builds them for you. Super useful for when you need to build resources often, to detect and correct config drift, and get started down the path of Infrastructure as Code.

I’m running the following SQL, although I’m not actually sure it’s as necessary since 0.18.3. It doesn’t delete any post history or anything.

DELETE FROM activity WHERE published < NOW() - INTERVAL '1 day';

I think the Kindle Scribe has a lit screen, if e-ink is what you’re after.

I love my ReMarkable 2! I use it everyday for handwritten notes and for e-reading. It doesn’t support the major stores, but it loads epubs just fine. I’m also self-hosting rmfakecloud cause I’m that kind of nerd. You mentioned night use, so definitely be aware it does not have any lighting built in.

Hugo calls these sorts of things “frontends” and has a list here: https://gohugo.io/tools/frontends/

I haven’t had great luck with any of them personally.

Here's a map from University of Alaska Geophysical Institute: https://www.gi.alaska.edu/modules/custom/aurora-forecast/images/idl_graphics/north_america/NorthAmerica_6.png

Yep! Just for whatever the abuse contact was in whois. Could have been coincidence, or maybe just whoever was on shift in Azure town at the time. I don’t remember if I got a response or not from MS.

I’ve actually done this for a Microsoft owned IP before. Someone was Wordpress-scanning a particularly fragile application of one of my clients (which was not Wordpress) which was causing it to fall over. The scan stopped within an hour of sending the abuse email.

Edit to add: I used to work in a NOC for a tier 1 ISP. We had an “abuse department” (a couple people) that investigated these and opened tickets with the NOC. I’ve emailed customers and disconnected circuits as a result of abuse emails, so I wouldn’t say they’re totally useless, but I’m sure it depends on the company involved.

Link thumbnails do get mirrored. My understanding is the front end of Lemmy is pretty heavy for the big instances and the burden of federating to another instance is pretty small. One thing I’ve noticed on my instance is that sometimes inbound federation can be pretty annoyingly slow.

Emby is not open source any more.

It’s free as in “paying zero money”. It’s still distributed via leanpub. Requires an email address to get to the download page, it doesn’t verify it in any way other than being a valid email format.

So the bit that malfunctioned wasn’t SpaceX hardware, and I don’t think Elon has anything to do with the Launcher Space company.

Falcon 9 (the SpaceX hardware actually involved in this launch) is a notable exception to other Elon involvements as it’s arguably the most reliable space launch system.
