  • What do you think is the best (and cheapest) way to host a new nextcloud instance and website for my local scouts organisation?

    Jump

  • I agree it's a nice way to try it out, though it has some limitations. Also, my experience with encryption at rest has been a mixed bag, though I think that's just because Nextcloud's implementation isn't quite mature enough.

    (happy cakeday!)

  • Reevaluating my password management

  • Yes! Oh my, I'm silly; that was precisely my point and I managed to mess it up 🙃

    Thank you for the correction!

  • https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compose_key

    It's a key that makes the next 2 or more keystrokes be dead key inserts that combineinto some character otherwise impossible to type.

    In my case, my keyboard had a ≣ Menu key which I never used, so I remapped it to Compose.

  • You're correct, but that's like saying along the lines of manufacturing a car is just bolting and soldering a bunch of stuff. It's technically true to some degree, but it's very disingenuous to make such a statement without being ironic. If you're making these claims, you're either incompetent or acting in bad faith.

    I think there is a lot wrong with LLMs and how the public at large uses them, and even more so with how companies are developing and promoting them. But to spread misinformation and polute an already overcrowded space with junk is irresponsible at best.

  • I've been getting into the habit of also using em/en dashes on the computer through the Compose key. Very convenient for typing arrows, inequality and other math signs, etc. I don't use it for ellipsis because they're not visually clearer nor shorter to type.

  • This. And to add to what other commenters have said, by using Bitwarden and paying for their Premium plan (very cheap, just $10/year), even if you don't use all their features, you're supporting a good project. It's critical infrastructure, I think the price is more than fair.Either way, you should always make periodic backups from any cloud service you use, encrypted of course.

  • Confused about Podman

    Jump

  • This is a good suggestion. Docker is more mature and has more resources, so it's better to learn the ins and outs of containers. After getting comfortable with it, you can move to Podman and have a much better time tackling its peculiarities regarding permissions and rootless.

    I used Docker for years and only recently decided to give Podman a try, porting my Lemmy instance to it.
