17.48 you can hear the audible gasp from ATC (or someone on the air) at the moment if impact.

Technically, the law only requires TikTok to be removed from app stores, and it is. Yesterday the company voluntarily blocked US traffic, then today they unblocked it, both seemingly just a publicity stunt to try to buy Trump’s favor.

Trump wins by uneducated people believing he saved TikTok for them, ByteDance (Tiktok’s parent company) wins by getting on his good side and increasing the odds of a future reversal of the law.

Enjoy the circus.

Nobody is mentioning PIA… Am I missing something that makes them a non-ideal option?

Found dockwatch on this week’s new directory apps, and although there seem to be a few small bugs, it’s the graphical update manager and notifier is been looking for for some time.

Sure wish there was an easy way to do this with Lemmy.

Just configure your outbound SMTP to use sendgrid or some other. SMTP provider. I realized this isn’t 100% self housing then, but you could still self host the inbound mail. Self housing outbound SMTP just isn’t worth it for most people IMHO due to spam lists.

Slow clap

Does lol like the prices have gone up a tad, but I just looked and could still pick up a Wyse 5060 with 8gb memory for about 33 USD shipped. Doesn’t seem to include power supply or ssd so add about $10usd each for those maybe $55 or so.

Can’t say what prices are like in Europe tho.

Thin clients off eBay. I picked up a Dell Wyse with 8gb memory, 4 cores, 16g emmc, and a 256G M.2 SSD for about $40. Includes the case, power supply, power button, etc. Still uses very little power. Install the x86_64 version of dietPi on that and it’s been Rock solid running my docker projects.

Also picked up and HP T620 with similar specs. Haven’t started using it yet but I expect similar results.

Much better deal than RPi and for most use cases equal or better able to do the job.

Leprechaun in the hood

I switched all my donations to cloudflare. Tried out pork bun and did like it but cloudflare is so good. I do hate in principal that they force you to use their dns, but in practice I want to use them for DNS anyhow. Their ZeroTrust tunnel is pretty slick too.

I think regardless of whether we have a white list, black-list or both there will be sources that fall in the grey. Here’s an example. Imagine a school shooting in XYZ Community. Perhaps the local community newspaper provides a very detailed and credible article - the site is small enough it is unlikely to be on either a white list or a black list but it could still be a good contribution to the site. I providing examples of sources that are broadly accepted or not accepted is useful, but at the end of the day I think much of it falls to moderator discretion.
