  • What does the 3-2-1 rule look like for you?

  • I've a nightly cronjob that runs backup using rsync for my local, and an external HDD that I stash in my work locker that I bring home once a week or so to connect to the server, run a backup script (more rsync), then take it back to work. It's not super sophisticated, but it works, and I have tested and restored from both the local and offsite backups.

  • I feel like by the time Trump and Elon and the project 2025 gang have finished having their way with the government there won't be any demand for COBOL or FORTRAN. It'll all have been burned down to the ground.

    Edit: Fixed twatboy's name.

  • You're right, but you're also not seeing some of the great and diverse content on Lemmy. Obviously reddit has a fuckton more content. Network effect and all that, but my Lemmy feed is not as you describe. I'm subscribed to a bunch of Linux, FOSS, privacy, music, and other great communities. While I do see articles and screen caps when I browse the all feed, my curated feed is full of questions, discussions, new (to me) music and more.

    It certainly takes some effort to curate a feed for yourself, but it can be done.

  • Hurr durr. The people actually feeling the squeeze and getting fucked were right. Hurr durr. Don't know how we got that wrong. Hurr durr.

  • Agree. I'd be nervous about it too. Mullenweg seems pretty unhinged at this point.

  • You're not wrong. Again, my logic for that the crazy person is on the warpath towards other hosting companies. For a time he had cut WPEngine off from wordpress.org, which meant thousands of regular people and business running wordpress couldn't update their plugins or wordpress core because they had no access to the .org registries.

    Mullenweg isn't going to do that to his own company. I think Mullenweg is a piece of shit, and I would steer clear of wordpress.com. My previous comment pointing towards .com is dumb.

  • Self host websites

    Jump

  • Mullenweg owns wordpress.com. It's arguably the only safe place to host WordPress since it's his company and while he seems willing to burn all goodwill down to the ground for wordpress open source, hes (probably) not going to burn his own company and cash cow to the ground.

    I mean, it's not a great option, and I may be stupid for saying that, but that was my reasoning for saying so.

    TBH, I'd just host it myself if I was going to do it.

  • FWIW, it might be better to avoid wordpress hosting UNLESS you go with hosting from wordpress.com, since there’s kind of an all out war in the wordpress world right now and the fallout to people who just want their websites to work is unknown.

    The tl;dr is that Matt Mullenweg, wordpress founder and owner/CEO of Automattic (which is the company that runs wordpress.com), has engaged in a Trumpish crazy war with wordpress hosting engine WPEngine, and in doing so has arbitrarily (in the name of his war) been doing crazy shit with the open source wordpress project.

    EDIT: To be clear, I am NOT recommending wordpress.com. My logic in saying what I said above is that Mullenweg is being very hostile towards other hosting companies, specifically WPEngine. For a time he had cut WPEngine off from wordpress.org, which meant thousands of regular people and business running wordpress couldn't update their plugins or wordpress core because they had no access to the .org registries.

    It's pretty unlikely that Mullenweg would cut his own for profit wordpress hosting company (wordpress.com) off from wordpress.org (the open source repo for the wordpress software and a vast majority of the plugins). And to be clear, I think Mullenweg is a piece of shit, and if it were me making this decision, I'd rent a vps and host it myself. It's really not that difficult.

    Does the Fediverse give you hope?

    Jump

  • For me it does. I'm really enjoying Lemmy, and have curated a bunch of communities that I follow and participate in in a way that feels helpful, hopeful, and not toxic.

  • Democrats slam Trump for not making good on promise to ‘immediately’ lower food prices

    Jump

  • If anyone actually thought that piece of shit trump was going to do anything about grocery prices, they are fucking fools.

    And I fully understand that this letter is just theater. Stupid, shitty, ineffective theater.

    Fuck this whole fucking piece of shit grift called a government.

  • I wouldn't peg that as the save. It looks like a download button. I get it within the context of skumorphism, but that down arrow icon already pretty universally means download.
