Who would realistically buy Chrome that wouldn’t degrade the consumer experience?

Also, would Google lose incentive to target the web entirely with its properties? In other words, what happens to the web if Google’s focus shifts entirely to Android?

Perfect is the enemy of good. There is no scenario where cars are getting banned in most of the world where EVs are being sold.

Guessing no meaningful difference, but I’m curious how the IP would compare to a regular pressure cooker on an induction pad.

Pressure cookers seem pretty efficient and fairly versatile.

If safer is a realistic outcome, perhaps things would further evolve. Ride share cars today are dual-use vehicles that typically carry driver + no passenger or driver + one passenger with the capacity for 3-5. If future autonomous ride share cars turn out to be dedicated to ride share, maybe most would end up being 3-wheel with just one or two seats. Shrinking the size of a substantial potion of cars on urban roads could be beneficial to road safety, power/carbon intensity, road capacity/density (which could also lead to more equitable road use for bikes and pedestrians).

I would consider voting for a 3rd party that abandons twitter and back ups their claims with credible sources.

ShieldsUP is fine. Also check out: https://www.routersecurity.org/testrouter.php

You could also just port scan yourself with something like nmap.

I use rclone to mount the Linux NAS from my Linux and Windows computers - SFTP backend is usually fine. Then I am uniformly reading/writing the NAS files as the local NAS user.

I feel that /r/programming lost a lot of volume and intensity following the API protest drama. This community seemed like a beneficiary. Even anecdotally though, I sit in a couple of language discord servers and engagement seems lower than it was a couple of years ago.

Even just watching other open source projects go through it is demoralizing to me, and I’m not a contributor.

Also attributed to burnout.

Apple has turned out to “prevent the chrome monopoly” far more effectively then firefox has.

Turns out that owning the platform (Android, iOS) counts for a lot. I like having an independent option.

Pretty sure he is a meaningful sponsor of PHP.

Technically true, but FOSS isn’t “free” in the sense that someone is contributing labor to build and maintain the software. Free to use, but not free to make. I personally wouldn’t expect or shame a person for using FOSS without contributing. But if you make a profitable business off a FOSS project, it seems reasonable to expect some form of contribution back to the project - not because it is technically required, but because who better to sponsor a project than someone profiting from it?

Re reverse proxies, not exactly. Tried reading vanilla nginx configs and trying to understand nginx proxy manager, couldn’t grasp either. Also gave haproxy a shot.

I guess I don’t exactly understand the value of rebasing the core system. Small atomic core with snapshot-based rollbacks, with containerized beyond core stuff seems to get you 99% of the way there, no?

If you can host thelounge on your LAN and access it over VPN on the go, it makes for a very nice IRC experience.

Otherwise, ssh (termux or whatever) to your irc host running irssi or weechat

Atomic automatic updates with snapshot creation? Maybe consider opensuse microOS if you are going headless…didn’t quite understand from your description. I have a VPS running microOS that has been doing its automatic updates/reboot thing for a year+ now without a single issue. Opensuse’s rolling stuff works very well, and you get native btrfs and snapper integration out of the box.

Easy to use reverse proxy - I really like Caddy. Reading/writing the config for that clicks better for me than others.

I like the novelty of using filesystem tools for backups, but can’t shake the feeling that tools like restic and borg are more widely deployed and battle tested.

I like that ipfire is still going strong when many Linux router projects seem to be dying out.

I haven’t used either command, but based on what I see in the manual, rcd tells rclone to start listening for remote commands whereas rc is used to issue remote commands.

Try it out by going to a folder with some files and typing: rclone rcd .

That should open a tab in your web browser with a list of your files.

There are situations where being able to send commands to rclone remotely would be helpful, but I’m not sure that you need to do that in this case.

I’m far from an expert, but I don’t know of rclone doing versioning, or a continuous sync like syncthing. Also haven’t used proton, so take my thoughts with a grain of salt.

Stage 1 Run rclone config to set up the proton remote. rclone config should take you through a wizard and will eventually ask you to authenticate somehow with the remote. Once that is done and saved, you’ll exit the rclone config wizard and be back at the command line.

Then you would run a test command like: rclone ls :

If it worked, you should see a list of files/folders on Proton. If not, you’ll have to go back to rclone config and edit the remote to fix whatever went wrong.

Stage 2

Test out copying the folders with a command something like: rclone copy localfile/folder remotename:remotepath

Do some testing to get the hang of the command, but it is pretty straightforward.

Stage 3

I don’t know how many files or how big the files are, but I assume not too many and not too big. I also don’t know which version of Linux you have, but I assume you have access to systemd, cron, or both.

You’ll make a basic shell script that runs the command you practiced in stage 2. Easy peasy, put it in a text file with a shebang at the beginning, make it executable, and give it a go. It should run exactly how it did when you typed the command out manually.

Finally, you will write a systemd timer or a cron/crontab entry to execute that script at some frequency.

So just to summarize:

1. Setup the proton remote in rclone using rclone config
2. Test out copying files to proton through rclone
3. Write a basic shell script that runs the command to copy files from the desired local folders to the desired proton folders.
4. Use one of the tools on Linux that lets you schedule the execution of scripts to automate running your copy to proton script as frequently as makes sense to you.
